Farva's Final Say On: Villains

As you know, I recently did a post of my favorite heroes, so, here are my favorite villains.

#1. Ted Rourke - The recent(ly dead) villain from "Chuck". I liked him because he was so casual about being evil, like there was a rule book, and he kept forgetting to follow it. I like those villains.

#2. Bob Euell - This man needs no introduction, but I will anyway. Bob is the cruel, racist, cruel, and racist villain from "To Kill a Mockingbird". I feel that Bob shows that a villain doesn't need powers to be evil. Bob represents everything that is wrong in the world.

#3 Carl Denham - Jack Black? Is this April Fools? No, Jack Black appears on my top villains list. He lied, cheated, and stole just to get an ape on Broadway. "We'll make it in ____'s honor, and donate the money to his family!" BS.

#4. Bane - The best comic book villain. He isn't just a psychological villain (a la Riddler) or a "Thing go Boom!" villain (a la Hulk), he's both. Bane the only person to defeat Batman, and he's fluent in 7 languages, and, and, well, he'd better be in Batman 3.

#5. Pete (Disney) - In "Kingdom Hearts 2" you get to fight the (not so) lovable loser, Pete. To KH foreigners, you're a kid stopping Disney villains from destroying the universes (yes, that's plural). In the second one, you fight Pete about 4 or 5 times, and, believe me, it doesn't get old. Something about beating the crap out of him is just so fun.

#6. The Devil - Yes, Satan the face of evil, of course. But I want to focus on one appearance in particular. In the awesome show "Quantum Leap", Sam (Scott Bacula) is in an experiment where he 'makes right what once went wrong' with his friend Al as his (holographic) sidekick. In one episode, horrible things happen when Sam follows Al's instructions, who always seems to be right. In the end, you find that the Devil was pretening to be Al to force Sam to do his bidding.

#7. Ben Linus - The cold-hearted villain of "Lost", who even let his own daughter die to save his own neck. He torments and persuades the islanders to do his bidding, and never gives anyone a strait answer because of it.

#8. Big Brother - The unseen, basically unheard, villain from "1984". He just exists in the posters "BIG BROTHER IS WATCHING". Yeah, can't trump that creepy factor.

#9. Stay Puft Marshmellow Man - Awwwww! Isn't that gigantic marsh- Wait! it's coming this way! DUCK! Okay, that's description for the villain in "Ghostbusters". Possessed by Gozer, he is a mascot (a la Goodyear Tireman) that rampages NYC.

#10. ZOMBIES! - Zombies make everything better. True fact. Check out G4's "Zombies are People, too." and you'll get the next line: "Smoothies!"

Remember, this is favorite villains, not best villains. Guy's like Stryker from X-men are better than Stay Puft man, but aren't as fun. Post your favorites!

  1. i agree with all of them espesially the stay puft mashmallow man. that was by far the weirdest ending to a movie ever! i still don't watch lost, though. i also don't know what kingdom hearts is. i know you included voldemort on your "heros" list, but i think is actually suppose to be a villian. no joke! i also think that you should add dale "the wale" biederbeck to your list. (he's wicked and ginormous!)
