Story of left hand/right hand

[Ivan Drago]

The guy from Speed Racer over Agent Smith and George Bush over Alexander De Large AND Emperor Palpatine.

ONLY on Match Cut.

[monolith94]

Perhaps, but I think it's awesome.

[Spinal]

So how did you break the ties?

[Ezee E]

So how did you break the ties?
Went from whoever got most first tier votes on downward.

HAL 9000 was down by only 10 points to Harry Powell.

Heck, the entire top eight could've been rearranged with a few extra voters.

[MadMan]

This list is good. And better than that one crappy Top Villains list that prompted the creation of this one. Its clear that the people of Match-Cut should be in charge of list creation.

[Spinal]

I would have voted for Ledger if we had done the voting a little later.

[Ezee E]

I would have voted for Ledger if we had done the voting a little later.
I got a few PMs from some that wanted to include him still.

[Kurosawa Fan]

Much as I enjoyed the film, I'm a bit embarrassed that the Speed Racer villain made the list.

[Yxklyx]

The one from Rosemary's Baby... who? what?

[D_Davis]

Cool.

I only wish that Agent Smith and Frank were higher up.

[Ezee E]

Much as I enjoyed the film, I'm a bit embarrassed that the Speed Racer villain made the list.
Yeah, I couldn't believe it myself.

[Spinal]

The one from Rosemary's Baby... who? what?

She won an Oscar. :confused:

[D_Davis]

Much as I enjoyed the film, I'm a bit embarrassed that the Speed Racer villain made the list.

I think it's just timing. The film was on a lot of minds at the time - if asked in a few months, I bet it wouldn't even get nominated.

[Spinal]

Yeah, the Speed Racer villain is not one of the film's more memorable aspects. It's a fine performance, but he's really just a stock character.

[Bosco B Thug]

Solid list, you can't complain. Glad Cross is on there, he was my old perv dark horse pick, but on that note, I was waiting and expecting and waiting and thus surprised when Mrs. Iselin didn't show up on the list!

[DavidSeven]

How does it make sense to include Steve Buscemi from Fargo but not Peter Stormare? Did you guys see the right movie?

[Raiders]

How does it make sense to include Steve Buscemi from Fargo but not Peter Stormare? Did you guys see the right movie?

I think Buscemi's character is more memorable (likely due to the humor factor), though I would have voted for them as a team if I had voted for either or them.

[Watashi]

No animated villains at all outside the predictable Malificent.

[soitgoes...]

No animated villains at all outside the predictable Malificent.Scar seems pretty animated.

[Scar]

No animated villains at all outside the predictable Malificent.

Scar.

[Watashi]

Scar's good and all, but there are better choices.

[DavidSeven]

I think Buscemi's character is more memorable (likely due to the humor factor), though I would have voted for them as a team if I had voted for either or them.

Buscemi has the meatier part, but Stormare is definitely the most "villain-y" of the two. He's the original Anton Chigurh.

[Raiders]

Scar's good and all, but there are better choices.

Yes, like Kent Mansley.

[Winston*]

Buscemi has the meatier part, but Stormare is definitely the most "villain-y" of the two. He's the original Anton Chigurh.
Isn't the Lone Biker of the Apocalypse the original Chigurh?

[Russ]

Scar's good and all, but there are better choices.
Ok, Wats, let's hear it: your Top Ten Animated Villians.

This might be interesting.


Oh, and thanks for putting the big list together, E.

[Watashi]

Sure, I'll do it. A separate thread perhaps?

[Sycophant]

Scar.


Pikachu?

Sycophant!

[Spinal]

That reminds me. I forgot The Sorceress from Kirikou.

[Philosophe_rouge]

Make the thread Wats, I'd be interested.

I'm happy Harry Powell came at number one, very deserved :D

[Ezee E]

Tetsuo made it too.

[Scar]

Sycophant!
