Movies Name a villain you liked more than the hero from the same movie universe.

[Sakuraba is #1]

The villains who were actually right about the problem they were fighting, even if their methods went off the rails. It could also be a villain that you respected more than the hero.

Thanos, of course, is the obvious choice. His solution was horrific, but his reasoning about resource scarcity was disturbingly logical, and I could sympathize with his rationing.

Christoph Waltz delivers a chilling and captivating performance as Hans Landa, a horrifyingly polite, cunning, and unsettlingly endearing villain.

Ivan Drago, the movie portrays him as a cold, ruthless Soviet machine. However, if you remove the propaganda, he was a disciplined athlete thrust into a political PR war. By the final fight, he even stands up to the corrupt Soviet officials.

Magneto, who survived the Holocaust, witnessed the signs of persecution and vowed to protect mutants at all costs. His fear of history repeating itself was well-founded in my opinion.

 

[Pittie Petey]

Killmonger was righteous and just in his reasoning for doing what he was doing

 

[Captain Tenneal]

Lucius Malfoy

I was rooting for the villain in the Marvels. I don't even remember who the villain was but whoever he or she is, the Marvels were a lot more insufferable

[SKYNET]

Hannibal Lecter

Drago showed complete indifference to literally killing a legend in the ring.

Hans Landa was a mass-murdering, self-serving narcissist.

I agree to an extent, about Magneto. He was the flip side to the coin of Prof X.

 

[Koro_11]

Drexel Spivey was actually the good guy in True Romance, he tried to give Clarence some good advice about not trying to make a whore a housewife, but Clarance just wouldn’t listen, and he went and fell in love with a hooker, and got himself, and everyone around him into a whole lot of problems because of it.

Seriously tho this is one of my favorite movie villains of all time, I used to hate the fact that his role in the movie was so short, but thinking back It’s probably better that way. He was perfect, didn’t drag on in the movie long enough to fuck it up with sub par scenes, his appearance was short and flawless, Gary Oldman is a natural in any role.

[Mr.Maelstrom]

Boyd Crowder, Magneto and Phil from Sopranos

 

[jeff7b9]

All of them.

Villains drive the story.
Without them absolutely nothing would happen.


Heroes are just reacting to the action the villains created
