The Villainament

[Vodstok]

I decided i wanted to pit bad guys against bad guys, crossing over all genres and media.... first to 5 votes is the winner.

for starters, Reformable psychotics:

Anthony Hopkins

Sir Anthony Hopkins

[Despare]

Anthony Hopkins, or as his friends call him; "T-Hop".

[Roderick Usher]

Brian Cox...

[Vodstok]

I have to say i am surprised Cox is betting beaten by Hopkins so far... He seems to be the house favorite.

[Phalanx]

Cox is betting beaten
hAHA.
I agree with Hopkins...he was the first one to chill the world at large...I know which came first, but still.

[The_Return]

Cox was amazing, but so was Hopkins...

Gotta go with Tony

[Vodstok]

Man... Brian Cox got whupped....


Well, he will always be Richard Morgan in my book.


How about some crazy Supernatural bad guys?

http://fear.dasmirnov.net/info/images/Fettel.jpg

[B]Paxton Fettel (F.E.A.R.)


VS.


Tetsuo (Akira)[\B]

http://www.film.org.pl/images2/akira/akira_5.jpg

[paws the great]

Paxton Fettel

[_____V_____]

Tetsuo.

brilliant character.

[Roderick Usher]

Tetsuo!!!!!!!!!!!

[bwind22]

Tetsuo


Akira rules

[Vodstok]

1 for paxton, 3 for tetsuo. THIS one is going a little more like i expected. PAxton is a great villan, but tetsuo has a couple of decades of lyal followers under his belt.

For those unfamiliar with the characters, Tetsuo is a kid that ends up getting imbued with almost limitless telekinetic powers, and loses his mind. References to his ultimate fate can be found in a particularly hilarious southpark episode


Paxton Fettel is the telepathic son of a 15 year old dead telekinetic that remotely commands an army of cloned super-soldiers on a mission to release his mother from her post-mortem prison. He is a scary bastard who eats people to steal there memories.

[Despare]

Paxton....

[Haunted]

Given Vod's description...Paxton.

[The_Return]

Given Vod's description...Paxton.

What she said.

Im not familiar with either, but man does he sound cool.

[Vodstok]

Wow. Paxton made a leap from behind, 4 to 3. Must be all the heavily armed minions he controls.

[Vodstok]

1 or 2 more votes could decide this thing, cmon....

[Roderick Usher]

Paxton is a fucking video game character?

Come on, man:mad:

[Vodstok]

Paxton is a fucking video game character?

Come on, man:mad:

Your prejudice is overwhelming, Rod. :p
He happens to be a very well devloped character

[Despare]

Tetsuo's a cartoon!? :mad:
(Just kidding of course, all forms of entertainment are allowed to have great characters. I almost voted for Tetsuo...)

[Roderick Usher]

Your prejudice is overwhelming, Rod. :p
He happens to be a very well devloped character

poo-nuts;)

I'll never budge on this one

[Miss Olivia]

Tetsuo.....he squished his girlfriend and blood squirted out.
Yeah.

[Vodstok]

4 to 4, next vote decides who wins.

[Phalanx]

I may be the only person in the world who pretty much hated all but one scene in Akira, but I'm still gonna make it lose this one.

The guy from F.E.A.R or whatever, looks like a good game, something I wanna play...

[Vodstok]

I may be the only person in the world who pretty much hated all but one scene in Akira, but I'm still gonna make it lose this one.

Looks like Mr Fettel Wins this round :D

For anyone who hasnt played or finished FEAR yet, you would probably, given his description, be shocked by where he ends up by the end of the game. I was more than a little surprised myself...

Anywho....


No Fun. kind of hard to pic your favorite genocidal psycho.

[Thomasgeorge]

well hitler is a mother fucker and so is the other guy so ummmmmmmm come back to me

[paws the great]

Joseph Stalin

[Roderick Usher]

maybe we should stick to fiction?

[Vodstok]

maybe we should stick to fiction?

I think you may be right.... The lack of responses suggests people are generally uninterested in this one.

Real life badguys just arent any fun.

this one should be better:

Darth Maul



Vs.



Agent Smith(s)

http://www.scoretrack.net/m_agent_smith.jpg

[paws the great]

Darth Maul

[Miss Olivia]

Hmm....hard to say. What wins between actuality and virtuality?
I'm gonna vote Darth.

[Vodstok]

Could you imagine Darth Maul fighting the mass of smiths in Reloaded? that would be a fun watch...

[Miss Olivia]

Yeah, with full gore. Limbs flying, sunglass shards randomly scattering....I would be entertained.
I miss Celebrity Deathmatch. Even if it WAS Playdough, it was still great.

[alkytrio666]

Agent Smith(s)

[slasherman]

Agent Smith(s)
.......................................

[Vodstok]

2 to 2 right now...

[Roderick Usher]

Darth Maul - the only thing remotely pleasant about that movie

[Vodstok]

i could not agree more.

Well, Jake Lloyd's oscar caliber acting was inspiring too.

[knife_fight]

Darth Maul. I hate the prequels, but the Matrix is infinitely worse (imo).

[_____V_____]

"Misturrr Anderson!"


Agent Smith.

[AUSTIN316426808]

Darth Maul

[Vodstok]

Looks like the twirling tattoo headed freak kicked agent smith's digital butt. Sorry hugo.

Now for a battle of big scary flaming things

http://badgerherald.com/artsetc/2004/11/29/lotr_balrog_EA_400.jpg

LOTR's Balrog



Vs.



The Male dragon From Reign of Fire

http://thecia.com.au/reviews/r/images/reign-of-fire-1.jpg

[Haunted]

The male dragon
(might be the only one, hated the LotR's books and films, but love dragons)

[Vodstok]

I really like the LOTR, well, anything really, but i have always loved dragons. Personally, I loved Reign of Fire and bought it the day it hit the shelves. Very underrated in my opinion.

[Roderick Usher]

The Dragon

[alkytrio666]

Personally, I loved Reign of Fire and bought it the day it hit the shelves. Very underrated in my opinion.
So did I.



However, the Balrog is badass.

Balrog.

[_____V_____]

Balrog.

Tough choice though.

[Despare]

The Balrog

[Miss Olivia]

The Balrog, no freaking contest.

[Vodstok]

4 -2, seems like Tolkein is holding his own so far....

[hammerfan]

Balrog definitely

[Vodstok]

We have a winner!

In all honesty, im not surprised... Granted, the Balrog has wings, but cant fly, but the dragon was taken down with a damn crossbow...


Now, how about something a little light-hearted?

This is hard... Can I vote for the Independant Party and say Kevin Spacey's character in Swimming with Sharks? No?

[Roderick Usher]

I suppose number 2 is a spoiler, but, oops... if you didnt know, you can now never watch it and spare yourself the pain and suffering....

[Miss Olivia]

Adrian Brody is the king of lames.

[hammerfan]

Damodar. Sorry, I thought the Dungeons and Dragons movie was stupid.

[Vodstok]

Damodar. Sorry, I thought the Dungeons and Dragons movie was stupid.

Dont apologize, it was one of the worst things to ever hit the silver screen.

[hammerfan]

Dont apologize, it was one of the worst things to ever hit the silver screen.

For me, it's right up there with "13th Child: Legend of the Jersey Devil".

[Vodstok]

Havent seen it, but i think i have heard awful things.

[The_Return]

[Despare]

The one that's wearing blue lipstick

[The_Return]

In all honesty I didnt think The Village was too bad. I would go so far as to call it a great movie or anything, but IMO it doesnt really deserve all the slagging it gets. Other than the mind-numbingly awful ending, I thought it was pretty well made.

I didnt. i thought the acting was universally overdone, and that the dilogue was forced and akward. It tried way too hard.

[Haunted]

The guy in the lipstick

Adrian Brody was playing a retard. He wasn't actually evil or bad, just, retarded. That's what I understood.

[_____V_____]

tough choice when you gotta choose between two moronic pathetic shitheads...

Damodar...just cuz of the game, not the movie.

[Vodstok]

4 -2, for the lipstick wearing nancy-boy so far.


Haunted, i thought he was evil, he knew what he did was wrong, then tried to run down the "blind" girl because he didnt want to lose her. Plus, i just wanted to punch him in the face.

Liked him just fine in King Kong, but I kept expecting him to be, well, retarded....

[_____V_____]

***bump***

[Phalanx]

Neither were REALLY villains as I recall...
I'll go with Lipstick boy....mainly because it was cooler seeing him beat the shit out of one of the OTHER annoying characters of this film, and throw him off a roof, than mongo-lad chucking a spazfit and knifing someone like a little bitch.

[The Mothman]

should we vote for which on is less lame or more?

[The Flayed One]

The ol' Giant Douche/Shit Sandwich debate, eh?

[alkytrio666]

Noah Percy.

Hated the movie, but I like Adrian Brody.

Damodar was supposed to be a bad guym but the writing was so bad and all over the place, they tried to introduce a dart vader side to him, but he REALLY liked being that bad ass, they just forgot about that at one point.

Looks like ol blue lips wins. Just goes to show you, everyone may get the medal at the psecial olympics, but all it takes is a drag queen to steal the spotlight.


How about some REAL evil

Charles Montgomrey "Monty" Burns

Eric Cartman

http://www.forskning.no/Bilder/1144414182.46/1144414182.46_content.gif

[Despare]

Charles Montgomrey "Monty" Burns

He blocked out the sun... the bastard.

[Phalanx]

C.M.Burns.

[hammerfan]

Mr. C. M. Burns

[Vodstok]

On the off chance any of you are unfamiliar with the works of Eric Cartman, he has:

Convinced the senate to allow abortions and stem cell research, so he could use the stem cells to replicate a Shakey's Pizza

Called a kids (Butters) parents repeatedly as that kid to convince his parents he was being bad (swearing at them, calling them names), and when they came home and were clearly BEATING him, he sat outside with a lawn chari eating snacks and said "I i were older, i would totally be jerking off right now"

Killed a kid's parents, ground them up, had them made into chili, and fed them to the kid's parents. When he reveled this and he started crying, Cartman licked his face saying "Your tears, they taste so sweet!"

In order to get to go to a birthday party, he convinced butters that an asteroid had destroyed civilization and hid himina bomb shelter, and then a broken old fridge, for over a week.

[Roderick Usher]

Eric "fat ass" Cartman

[_____V_____]

****Burns.

[Vodstok]

Burns is winning, 4-1. Dont get me wrong, I love Mr Burns, but i think Cartman is far more evil...

[Miss Olivia]

This is a travesty.

Eric Cartman also likes to dress up like Hitler for Chrissakes.

Eric freaking CARTMAN!!!!

[alkytrio666]

C.M. Burns

[cactus]

Cartman

"Respect mah AUTHORITAAAA!!!!"

[paws the great]

Mr Sinister



Vs.



Stryfe

http://www.leftoverokra.com/cerebro/pics/stryfe2.jpg


I love them both, but for sheer manipulative evil, i love mr sinister. Plus, you CANT KILL HIM :)

[Roderick Usher]

mister sinister

[Vodstok]

Thank god. i was afraid he would not get any votes for some reason.

I can recall exactly the moment i thought he was great:

When Andy Kubert took over the X-Men series from Jim Lee, there was an issue where Scott Summers is walking in the woods with the man who raised him. One panel shows him yanking off his glasses and blasting the old guy, and the next thing you know, there is sinister grinning at him, explaining that Cyclops' power USED to be able to harm him but not any more. All this while there is a gigantic hole ripped in his midsection.


That attrocious cartoon made him intop a kind of a wuss. And a dork.

[Phalanx]

Sinister. Stryfe was a passing phase, sinister is eternal.

[_____V_____]

Mr. Sinister.

One badass mofo to ever light up the pages of the X-Men series.

[Miss Olivia]

Mister Sinister.

[Phalanx]

So...lets assume sinister won...this thing continuing?

[The Flayed One]

So...lets assume sinister won...this thing continuing?

If not, I'll drive it home. Stryfe is a dillhole. Sinister all the way.

[Haunted]

Vod might be busy, or his ego might have been squished due to his latest but not greatest idea. (Vod, we love you, and forgive you. I've done dumber.)

Now, since Mr. Sinister clearly won hands down...

Check this shit out:

Which of these summ'bitches is more vile?

http://i94.photobucket.com/albums/l89/Bandraoi999/Skeletor-from-the-series-he-man.jpg

Or???

http://i94.photobucket.com/albums/l89/Bandraoi999/Thundercats2.jpg

[bloodrayne]

Mumm-Ra is WAY cooler than Skeletor :p

[Despare]

No way, Skeletor all the way. He fought off He-Man and the Masters of the Universe.

[Phalanx]

That's a good one...
As cool as mum-rah was with his transformation thing...skeletor never needed any incantations to get "more powerful", was at various times in charge of much more formidable minions, and a much better manipulator...not to mention part of (I think) a much more memorable cartoon series.
M.O.T.U was one of the greats...thundercats was cool, but never quite went that distance.

Skeletor for me too.

[Roderick Usher]

Skeletor!!!!

[_____V_____]

Mum-Rah was ok, but nothing when compared to Skeletor.

Skeletor.

[Haunted]

In light of the new as...id...jac...person, this thread, as are other good threads, is getting buried. So, instead of just bumping it, we're moving on, until Vod comes back and does his thing.

These next two fellows are opposites: One is a Japanese character (anime), but everybody knows 'im. The other is a character from Japan, and those who don't know him have been buried under a rock. One's an evil master mind with a horde of idiots. The other may actually be a fuck up himself (theories are still out) with a hord o' ninjas.

I bring you:

Dr. Claw

http://i94.photobucket.com/albums/l89/Bandraoi999/drclaw.jpg

v.

Shredder

http://i94.photobucket.com/albums/l89/Bandraoi999/shredder.jpg

[Despare]

Shredder
Even though he answered to Krang he was a bad ass.

[the_real_linda]

shredder wasnt cool to me wen i was a kid but i like shredder now but always will be skelator

[Phalanx]

Shredder.
Krang was just a stupid creation for the cartoon, as were rocksteady and beebop and that technoball thing...the "real" Shredder was much more vicious in the comics, and answered to no-one. The version of him in the first movie was a little more like the original shredder, not quite as badass, but a little more alike. But yeah, overall...villains don't come much more hardcore.

[The_Return]

Dr. Claw!

Shredder was cool, but man...Claw just kicks ass. Rupert Everett murdered him, but he was damn cool in the cartoon.

[_____V_____]

Dr.Claw.

Can kick Shredder's wussy ass anytime, anywhere...

[Miss Olivia]

Shredder.
I had a cat named Shredder once.

[Phalanx]

A: Shredder - Martial arts expert, killer moves. Take no shit, creatures over twice his physical mass under his command,...More than once kicked the shit out of the "main" characters of the show, movies and comics, and on more than one occasion, collectively. KickASS armour. Doesn't always win in the end, but comes back each time with a different and diabolical plan. He's had his enemies friends beaten (and in comics) murdered and raped, he pulls no punches.

B: Dr Claw - Cool voice, but other than that a hand that slaps a cat around a lot, and not much else. Clearly has a lot of resources available to him, but has he ever "beaten" damn near the biggest dolt in existence? No.
Frequently has his "plans" usurped by little girls and dogs. Regardless of all the tech and resources at his command, fails time and again...and continues to hire the same two morons to work on his behalf, even though all they ever do is fuck up. Then cries like a bitch every damn time he has his ass somehow handed to him or his plans smashed "Next time...I'll get yooooou!"

Does this not put things in perspective?

[bwind22]

Shredder.

Dr. Claw's plans always got foiled by the world's doofiest inspector, his little niece & her dog. At least it took 4 mutated ninja turtles to stop Shredder week in and week out.

[Phalanx]

My point exactly.

[Disease]

The shredder, he proved to be a super villan after the first movie when he came back from haveing his helmet crushed by a garbage truck, don't forget he survived a rat scratch once aswell.

[Vodstok]

instead of just bumping it, we're moving on, until Vod comes back and does his thing.


THANK YOU! :)

We all got nice a sick last week, thats why i disappeared. I will take this back over if haunted is willing to give it up :)

[Haunted]

It's all yours, Vod. I sort of dropped the ball on that last one. I never thought Shredder was that cool, but for vileness, yes. Dr. Claw was pretty vile too. He was always trying to kill Penny who was what? Eleven? However, I see the points people are making. Plus, they aren't really in the same class as villains go.

...Hey...maybe we could team up, Vod. As I mentioned before, villains are my thing. However, it's up to you. There are a lot of really creative avenues that we could take with this...

[Vodstok]

Takes off some pressure for me.

so is there a new match?

[Vodstok]

Well, shredder clearly won this round (i would have voted for him also), so i guess we do need a new one....


how about Demon vs Demon?


http://www.dvd-direct.de/specials/demon_knight/jeryline.jpg

Billy Zane as The Collector from Demon Knight


Vs.


Pazuzu from the Excorcist

http://scaredyet.org/pics/exorcist/exorcist59.jpg

[GorePhobia]

Billy Zane as The Collector from Demon Knight

just because Billy Zane is awesome.

[Haunted]

Although the Exorcist was a trillion times cooler than Demon Night, I've gotta go with Billy Zane, because I think that The Exorcist was a slight against Puzuzu, seeing as how he isn't technically a demon. I'll leave it at that.

[Vodstok]

Let me guess, ancient spirit demonized by the christians?

[ShankS]

I'll give the vomit a point.... Pazuzu.

[Disease]

"Billy Zane titty" an old friend of mine used to scream that out whenever Billy Zane was mentioned so I have to go with The Collector.

[Haunted]

Let me guess, ancient spirit demonized by the christians?

Summerian and Babylonian major Air Spirit/Elemental, could cause and prevent plagues and famines. Protector of women in childbirth. Very agricultural dude. He looks creepy, as does Bathomet:
http://i94.photobucket.com/albums/l89/Bandraoi999/Baphomet.png

However...
He's actually related to the Hellenic God, Mendes, and in the Medieveal Occult traditions (Levi's in particular... and later Crowley) he's related to the Hermetic spin on the Tree of Life/Qabala. He's actually a Spirit of "Mercy" and "Justice."

Okay, so The Exorcist was really just a movie. Maybe Puzuzu didn't mind being a villain.


Damnit, Vod:D I wasn't going to go into this, as it irritates people.

[Despare]

Pazuzu

Demon or not he made that girl uuuuuuuuuuuugly.

[_____V_____]

Pazuzu. For Blatty & Friedkin's masterpiece.

And also for the "fuck me!" scene.

[Vodstok]

2 - 4 in favor of linda blair. sorta.


Oh, and Haunted. Screw the masses, i was curious and i find ancient religions interesting.

[Roderick Usher]

I wasn't going to go into this, as it irritates people.

Never! Sure the movies get it wrong, they always do. And that provides an opening for you to come correct. I love getting every angle.

and that said Pazuzu is still a waaaaaaay better villian from a waaaaaaaay better movie.

[Haunted]

:) Thanks, Rod.

That being said, Pazuzu, in his first film debut takes the award 5 to 2.

Let move to two completely different villains in a completely different category. Vod and I talked, and we're going with some mythological characters here. Also, I'm going to bring in some women into this action.

From ancient Hellas, this once lovely lady was caught smooching up with Aphrodite's love interest in Aphrodite's temple. Not cool. So, Aphrodite cursed this woman to a life of hideousness, with snakes for hair. In fact, this woman was so hideous, one look would turn a man into stone.

I give you the Gorgon, Medusa:

http://i94.photobucket.com/albums/l89/Bandraoi999/Medusa.jpg

In Hebraic mythos this lady was the first wife of Adam. However, she didn't like being subordinate to a man. So she high tailed it out of Eden. According to myth, she became a terrible succubus. She would drift into the dreams of men and steal their lives over a period of several nights. She was said to suck the life out of newborn children. She is also said to be the Hebraic version of a vampire.

Fighting for the right destroy men is Lilith:

http://i94.photobucket.com/albums/l89/Bandraoi999/lilithstele.jpg

These two ladies have three things in common: They've both been cursed by a deity, and NeoPagan women seem to adore them. That is possibly due to the third trait; their favored victims are men.

[Vodstok]

Very Nice :)


I will have to go with Medusa, for many reasons, but foremost is HArryhausen didnt make a Lilith as far as I know. Plus, frasier didnt marry medusa :p

[Roderick Usher]

Lillith all then way

and I'm loving the mythological turn this tourney has taken

[paws the great]

Medusa....

[Miss Olivia]

Lillith without a doubt.

[Despare]

Medusa.....

[_____V_____]

I remember Boris Vallejo's painting of Lilith looked extremely gorgeous...similarities can be so vague sometimes...:p

Tough choice. I d go with Medusa, because of that lovely head.

[Cadaver]

My vote goes to the lovely succubus

[Phalanx]

Lilith.
Moving on?

[Haunted]

Yup. This thread was buried so fast, I didn't even realize that V had responded. Plus, I thought that Vod was... I'm assuming he still works here...

Anyway, I was wondering if you guys had any themes you'd like to see? I'm going to do a James Bond Villain theme. I know that at some point, I'm going to throw some very vile bad-asses at you from various types of media, and I mean, these are going to be the people... who never really die they just leave the place and come back meaner. You know. But that's later.

There are a lot of ways this could go. I'd like some feedback, so that I may better entertain you.

How about the medical field? An evil doctor vs. an evil nurse (Ratched would be perfect).

[ferretchucker]

what about banshee vs evil druid?

[Haunted]

Ferret, there's not really an evil bean sidhe because it isn't in their nature as fairies to be evil.

However, while you guys are thinking, I just gonna throw some funny stuff out. They are villains, but... (My Thanks to Rod Usher for the inspiration and the suggestions!)


Richard Nixon (He's with Elvis, how bad could it have been?) Well, he did pull the US out of Vietnam "peacefully" and "honorably" and proceded to sack Cambodia, who was nuetral. Then he did bring about the establishment of the EPA and other really useful groups...that never got or really get any support. Then there was Watergate. Basically, he ran his mouth to the wrong people. He admitted (or is said to have admitted- some people still don't by it all) to stealing money from the democratic party, threatening the Democrats to ensure his political success. He was even trying to have people, a colomist for one, assasinated. Nixon was a fairly smart dude. By the way, a lot of the dickheads working for Nixon, are now working for...

President Georgie W. Where to start...? Where to end?? Runs with right wing nut jobs so advocated that faith based charities receive more aide from the Government, gives children going to religious (Christian) schools more money. Post 9/11 we find that they knew something very bad was going to happen, but didn't move to stop it. Used that event for going to War in Iraq (getting Hussein was good), is an oil tycoon so doesn't give a shit if the oil prices rise all over the world, hell, probably takes weekends to Saudia Arabia to celebrate another trillion dollars made for every person who actually has to drive. Screwed the whole Iraq war up, we're stuck, their stuck, and Iran is after nu-q-lear weapons. The list....stretchs on and on...And I hear the Feds a' comin.'

I say...

'78 Cylon
vs
Neo-Cylon

...

[Haunted]

Okay, there's a definitive re-rebeginning. Cylons are actual characters/entities other than shitty US presidents (which no on voted on anyway).

So, we'll begin with Cylons and NeoCylons (from Battlestar Galactica). The only thing I remember about the original version is Lauren Greene and that Noah kid and his little dog. So, I did some research...

Cylons: Now, originally, they were created as robotic workers. You see, they're sort of cyborgs but different. There are different types of these things, but from what I've come to understand, they want to get rid of humans. So, some of them even look human. In the old series, they could kind of look human, but a trained eye could tell the difference.

This is your old version. Sure, they were big metal and kicked butt. There were many that were essentially the ship. They were stationary units that were humanoid, but perfectly maintained the operations of the ship. At one time, you could talk to them, but later...It wouldn't have been a good idea.

Now the new and improved versions can do much more. They can blend into human society without any notice. They have a larger variety of Cylons (I'll show you two). This new kind almost has an intelligence that isn't programmed.

Centurian (warrior, laborer, guard, etc)

One of the big Cylons (Cylon 6)

So, for this villain question, it's not the villain, but the model? Kind of like asking a James Bond fanatic, "When was Ernst Stavro Blofeld at his worst?

[Despare]

The old Cylons were better, I vote for them.

[DP McCoy]

The old Cylons were better, I vote for them.

Agreed,you knew where you stood with them.

[Haunted]

BUMP!!!!!

Too much hard work to let it die. Thank you.:)

[Phalanx]

As cool as I think the new series is (probably better'n the old one/s), I have to say I always liked the oldskool cylon troopers...'cos they had the phat soundwave style voice.
I want a voice program that has that voice...

[Roderick Usher]

Old Cylon!

[Haunted]

So retro!! Old cylons win hands down.

I've got something a little different now. No pictures this time. I'm only going to do two rounds like this, but I'll space them out.

This time, I want you to decide which type of villain you like best. So, I'm going to describe, real concise like, two different types of villains, and you vote for your favorite type.

Archenemy

The archenemy is often the hero's greatest enemy. There tends to be an emotional bond between this type of enemy and the protagonist. So, this type of enemy is personal. It poses the greatest threat to the protagonist. This enemy is typically portrayed as being very dangerous and typically never dies in a series of horror books, novels, games, comics, etc.

V.

The Supervillain

Def. They're similar, however, the supervillain tends to be more sociopathic, sadistic, works alone, (could possibly be in a group). A supervillain wants emmense power, like over the world, but why stop there... why not the universe? However, they're single minded, tending to attempt the same plans over and over the exact same way, regardless of the fact that the plans have failed... every time.

[Roderick Usher]

Archenemy - love the personal angle

[Despare]

Supervillain, without knowing who the protagonist is it's hard to vote for the archenemy. The supervillain is a threat to all...

[The_Return]

Archenemy.

Supervillains are awesome, but these guys have so much more to them.

[pinkerton]

Archenemy....

[Cadaver]

I say Archenemy too because of the personal thing happening between them.

[DP McCoy]

Archenemy,i like to see a great twisted relationship between villain and hero.

[Haunted]

You guys nailed that. I really didn't think anyone would like that.

Archenemy wins 5 to 1 over Supervillain

It would be 6 to 1 if I had a vote, which I don't. So...

Time to look at girls...

For starters, I decided on Batman femme fatales, because actually, I was gonna compare some one else to a Batman bitch. Didn't work out.

I love her: Poison Ivy

The ever classic... Cat woman (no one, but no one was better than Ursa. No one!)
