Who is your favorite villain of all time?

[Cpn. Chris(tine) Bowman]

My fave villain is Bijomaru from the movie "Azumi". He's so completely crazy! Seriously he scares me so badly! And he's such a babe! Seriously guys! Watch Azumi, Bijomaru is the ultimate bad guy! He's hilarious in a oh so psycho way. No matter how hunky he is I would run away.

Second fave is Darth Vader. He's cool.

Watch Azumi, seriously!

[GeneralJackO'Neill]

Is Azumi anime or something?

[Starlilica]

My favorites (acending order):

1. Darth Vader -- Here, little Annie...
2. Naraku -- Stupid spider....
3. Sauron -- See here and here.
4. Anubis -- Good jackle...
5. Nakago -- Yay evil blond generals!

Wheeeeeeeee, bye!

The Female Changeling from DS9. She is so cold and uncaring towards everyone but her own people.

Hmm.
Prior to seeing the 'prequel trilogy' *chokes* of Star Wars, I would have said, with no hesitation, Darth Vader.
Since then, I've seen stuff like Farscape and Stargate and Firefly.
So, I'd now say: Scorpius.

I did like that old dude in Firefly (Neeska? Neeshka?), and the operative in Serenity. Stargate: hmm...villain...does the IOA count?

Oops!! Totally forgot about them!! Yeah.

Darth Vader is the most iconic. As a Stargate fan, Anubis is noteworthy. The Joker, Cylons, and Megatron round out my list.

It's harder than I thought to find great villains even if I watched many sci-fi shows and movies. Most of them don't even have a real single villains (12 Monkeys, Gattaca, etc). The first ones that comes to mind are Dukat in DS9, Annorax in Voyager, Cohagen in Total Recall.

I definitely would not call Garak a villain. After all, he helped all of the main characters through various Dominion War campaigns and embraced a philosophy of freedom for Cardassia. He's very much an anti-hero but definitely not a villain. Dukat and Winn were definitely complex villains on DS9. They went through many evolutions and shades of grey before becoming the prime antagonists.

I wrote Garak but I meant Dukat. Garak is a good character but indeed not a villain.

Ah, gotcha. DS9's "Waltz" definitely revealed a lot about Dukat's complexity.

As villains, the Shadows from Babylon 5 were also very complex. Their methods were frightening but the way they presented their ultimate intentions made them much more than your regular dark villains from the ancient past.

Darth Maul was a complete joke. Was he a sandperson or something(check the horns)? What was the deal with that ridiculous double-bladed lightsabre?

IM A SUPER-SOLDIER NOW!!!!!!!!!

A 6 year old post, clearly woefully unaware of anything in the Star Wars EU

Maul was a Zabrak, not a Tusken. And the double-ended saber started as a comic idea that was well-liked enough to make it into a film. Plus it was straight-up cool


Mine in no particular order of preference:
Biff Tannen
Cancer Man
General Chang
His Divine Shadow
Gul Dukat
The Joker (TDK)
Khan
The Master (John Simm, pre-End of Time)
Melkor/Morgoth
Emperor Palpatine
Reavers
Saruman
Scorpius
Shadows / Londo
Xenomorph
Dr. Zaius





Darth Vader would make the list, if the only SW movies made had been ANH and ESB. But since they weren't, I see him as a fallen/tragic hero, not a villain.

[Sp!der]

The Alien still scares the **** out of me, other than the creature, I loved Agent Smith. Only in the first Matrix. As well as Biff from Back to the Future
