**** I WOULD LIKE - to start out saying this article has nothing to do with me hating on Marvel. ****
MARVEL is my favorite, all the films, Actors everything! There is just one thing i wish the films had better, And that is the Villains.
The only two Villains that i actually thought were sick, and remembered was Iron Monger in the first 'Iron Man'
and the Abomination in 'The Incredible Hulk'.
I know I'll probably get hate for this, but it is just an opinion, And honestly kind of the sad truth.. Nolan has better villains, and Marvel can too!
I feel like maybe Marvel is rushed with they're films, (not what i actually think, but just an idea) so they pick a villain, give him a back-story and bam! Everyone will love him till the next Avengers (or first) came/come out, with even a bigger baddie then before.
See why Christopher Nolan's villains are probably so good, is because he really re-creates something that already exists and adds his own thing to it, for example.
- JOKER
1. the Joker's makeup.
2. Always referring to how he got his scares.
3. The Joker's voice (unlike cartoons or previous films - also changed by Nolan)
And many other details, and these details and small character development make these villains so loved and remembered and Marvel should be able to leave that impression with they're villains too.
- BANE
1. Every-time someone is talking about Bane and he shows up he says "Speak of the Devil and he shall appear"
2. Crazy remembered voice that everybody tries to do equally as good as the film.
3. He's actually a bad ass.
Now i didn't like Harvey Dent/Two Face in the film because he was in it for like a second as Two Face..
But my point is, If the Film is good or not, everybody leaves Nolan's Dark Knight films with the Villain in they're heads, Re-saying lines, Trying to do the Joker/Bane accent or make up, or costumes.. Chris Nolan almost makes you like his Villains more than Batman and that's the kind of thing Marvel needs to get better at.
Marvel movies are great because they are action-packed with awesome drama, and actually funny Comedy. And they have Robert Downey Jr.. But just imagine if they're villains were purely original, and just super awesome, Marvel would be even better and that's hard to do.
Now I'm not saying Nolan's films are better then all of MCU all i am saying is the Villains are.
So i don't know if its Kevin Fiege, or the Director of the film (it is the director of the film) but they need to think it through more.
