Best CBM Villains? You Tell Me.

When you say best CBM villains, I assume you mean the actual villains and their schemes as opposed to their portrayal right?

Loki's my favorite. That's how he's supposed to be, and Tom Hiddleston's facial expressions are hypnotic.

Loki and Bane were better than all of the ones you put up except Joker.

@SotoJuiceMan @Hush2010 @Fenix122 @Tainted87
I explained why I dislike Loki on the list, and Doc Ock. Ra's was identical to the comics(except the Henri Ducard training stuff) so it doesn't matter that he wasn't revealed til the end. And I was close to including Bane, but I foresaw the Nolan haters saying he was a lovesick dog, so I hesitated

@bazinga85...I approve your list.

No love for Alfred's Doc Ock?

@Koonel- EPIC list my friend! LOL

I agree with Koonel list

1. Heath Ledger as The Joker
2. Tom Hiddleston as Loki
3. Ian Mckellen and Michael Fassbender as Magneto
4. Willem Dafoe as Green Goblin (purely down to Defoe as without him the character is rather bland and lacking in the motivation department)
5. Brian Cox as William Stryker

...... And Probably The Mandarin In Less Than A Month...

I have to agree with the author about Loki. He was great, but he foils easy. He also didn't seem that threatening, always using someone else to do his dirty work, or getting owned by Black Widow and Hulk.

But I agree with most everyone else.
Joker (both)
Magneto (both)
Doc Ock (Not as nasty as Goblin, but every bit as menacing, and more interesting to boot)

I appreciate the nod to Iron Monger, who doesn't get enough credit. That's who Mandarin has to live up to, just as Michael Shannon Zod better live up to Terrance Stamp's

Oh, and Bane was incredible. If the movie CBM villains all battled each other, I believe Bane would defeat all

1. The Joker (Ledger) (still to this day I have never went to see a movie and been so intrigued by a character) every time Heath wasn't on screen you waited for him to be, everyone in the entire cinema had the same reaction, literally when ledger came in screen everyone was silent, no popcorn rustling, no checking their phones. just absolute silence people had no clue what he would do next so they sat and they watched in awe as heath stole their attention for the entire movie, I went to see TDK three times in the cinema and have watched it countless times since and I still believe that noone will ever equal what heath brought to the character, but it will be excellent to see them try, I say this as a batman fan and an all round film fan. in my personal opinion there is no way the joker should be played in anyway similar to heaths, in order to keep the freshness and keep it interesting, give us crazy comic psychopath joker from the arkham series and have him played by Jason Flemyng (x men first class, kick ass, league of extraordinary gentleman) and have him up against a Jon hamm batman, that will be an epic of which could rival such a Cbm as the dark knight.

2. Loki (Hiddleston is a great dramatic actor and his scene with Hopkins in Thot was excellent)
that dramatic outburst screaming 'TELL ME!!!!' peaked my interest more than any other scene in the film (I really enjoyed it, but that scene really took the cake for me) and the fact that hiddleston essentially is Loki only adds to my love for the character!

3. Harvey Dent (eckhart) along with most people I prefer the villain to the obvious hero, but the fact he was such a good man who was twisted and corrupted made it even more heartbreaking when he met his end at batmans hands, I really feel for eckhart as heaths tragic passing totally snubbed him from the praise he deserved.

4. Erik Lensherr (fassbender) I'm a huge fassbender fan and had loved most of the things he's been in, I went to see FC with little hope after going to see TLS & origins, but the mixture of vaughn's direction and fassbenders sheer presence on screen I was begging for more it the film than there was and ignored my original grievances that it wasnt the original first class line-up from the comics.

5. The Joker (Jack Nicholson) it's criminal to have jack so far down in this list but I feel in terms of great acting he is a top contender and you can tell that he loved playing every second of the over the top, crazy clown prince of crime but I just feel in terms of raw emotion the actors above managed to snatch it from him.

@ VIRILEMAN, i liked TDKR in the context of the trilogy nolan had set up but it bugged me deep down because i always figured that nolans trilogy would be about batmans early years leaving the door open for sequels introducing dick grayson etc...so i like the movie and i didn't, now to address some of your concerns;

the men in the prison were instructed to nurse wayne back to health, part of banes plan to "poison the soul with hope" the man even says so when he asks wayne how much hed offer for them to just finish him off right after bane leaves.

In Batman Begins, bruce left and travelled the world without his money or any id at all so its no stretch to think that he could do that in TDKR to return to gotham. as far as gettin back into an occupied gotham, thats well within the realm of his abilities due to the LOS training.

As far as him trusting catwoman even after all she did; she didnt really betray him, he asked to be taken to bane, it was his hubris that defeated him not her double cross, anyways this is just a nitpick, not really bad storytelling at all dude...same with the kid that thinks of batman as a hero....its clear that some ppl still thought of batman as a hero, the kid, gordon obviously, blake, the other cop during the chase so hes still revered by some of gothams ppl who just dont buy the story, akin to alot of ppl not believing the official story for 9/11.

As far as the bomb goes, the time it took the doctor to change the energy device into a nuke wasnt specified, more nitpicking from a hater, some things dont have to be explained scene by scene, same with the gas bat signal, same with the timeline between batman escaping the prison and getting to gotham where just as wayne leaves the prison, fox states that they have 23 days before the bomb goes off, plenty of time for all the nitpicks you have to be dealt with.

And Batman was limping towards the Batpod at the end of the Dark Knight, i do agree that his knee being fixed by the time he leaves the pit is a plot hole though.

Banes voice is awesome BTW....
