Top Movie Villians

Yahoo! Movies has compiled its list of top movie villains to commiserate the release of The Dark Knight (fantastic movie). Transformers baddie Megatron made the list at #4 despite his mostly cameo appearance and showing up just long enough to kill Jazz and then die.
A robot that shrinks down into a handgun that other robots have to hold to shoot? Not exactly a threat to the planet. So it's no surprise that the leader of the Decepticons was given a new "alien jet" vehicle mode for the movie. Not that he needed to turn into something to wreak havoc; he tears poor Jazz in half with his bare hands.
You can read the details here. Thanks to Chris for the link.

The list in order:
1. The Joker - The Dark Knight
2. Darth Vader - Empire Strikes Back
3. Lord Voldemort - Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix
4. Megatron - Transformers
5. Davy Jones - Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest
6. Agent Smith - The Matrix Reloaded
7. Dr. Octopus - Spider-Man 2
8. The Wicked Witch of the West - The Wizard of Oz
9. General Zod - Superman II
10. Magneto - X-Men: The Last Stand
11. Khan Noonien Singh - Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan
12. T-1000 - Terminator 2
13. The Queen - Snow White and the Seven Dwarves
14. The One Ring - The Lord of the Rings
15. Syndrome - The Incredibles
16. Satan - South Park: Bigger, Longer & Uncut

  2. Actually, I have to agree with that list 100%. Heath Ledger as the Joker was the craziest, most insane, psychotic villain I have ever seen! And I'm not one of those people who say that just out of respect for the dead, this was his Ninth Symphony, truly Oscar worthy. Sure Darth Vader could kick him a few million times around the block, but he was definitely not as evil and twisted as the Joker. Personality over actions, BIG TIME!!!!

    FTW!!!!!!!

  3. Nothing against ledger/joker (he was awesome), but that movie just came out today. I think its WAY too early to include him on a list of this sort, let some time pass to let it sink in

  4. Ok, I don't want to turn this into a big south park debat and shizz..

    Butt #12 Satan from south park? Could they have gotten anybody more GAY?

    If you ask me Eric Cartman should be atleast #3 on that list. Cartman runs circles around satan. C'mon ERIC CARTMAN SHOULD BE IN THE TOP 5. he killed someons parents and made chilie out of them. what has satan done?

  5. Thats a terrible list. Dark knight just came out. Most of the nation hasn't even seen it yet. Proves how dumb people in this country and how they're all tools.

  6. This is nitpicky, I know, but I wish that people that work in the media, would get their facts straight when reporting stuff like this. Case in point, Megatron DID NOT rip Jazz apart with his hands, but rather HIS FEET.

    He dealt with Jazz just like an eagle swooping down on a mouse would do, or any other small prey - rip the prey apart with his FEET. That's how the scene was animated. Watch it closely and try to tell me that that's not how it goes down. . .

  7. I'm sure the Joker and this new movie are great, but come on..
    Darth Vader is an icon world wide and has been since the 70's.

  8. Sure, Darth Vader (Force) choked people and chopped his son's hand off...but did he ever show an Imperial officer a "magic trick"? ;)

    The Joker rocked. And I agree with one of the posters above, Eric Cartman is WAAAAAY more evil than Satan. He made someone eat their parents, AND he tried to wipe out the Jews again.

    we're talking about icons here.

  10. WOW, so bad.

    Megatron caught Jazz with his feet, but ripped him in half with his hands. TERRIBLE, who watch the movie again.

    The Joker was insane, go see the movie and then comment.

  11. come on people! you joker bandwagoners... A few weeks, the world will forget about the joker. yeah, the movie just came out, of course you clowns are gonna be all hyped. Hate to tell you the TRUTH.. DARTH VADER,dark lord of the sith. Will always be 1#. NO Comparison. if anything, the joker is in the top 20,at # 18. Villian is the key word. Darth walks in the room, you feel his presence, you are afraid, and for good reason. uhh, joker walks in, i'll go up to him and kick his a##. try that with VADER and your family will be wearing black very soon....
