I just got back from seeing The Dark Knight (I know I am way behind), and the movie was good, but what really blew me away was Heath Ledger as the Joker. I know, I know, everyone is already making a big deal out of it, but I thought most of that was because he was dead. I was wrong. He was awesome, and just the perfect person to play that darker version of the Joker that the Batman movies are trying to potray. He (the Joker) is a man with no consciece or reason for what he does, other than to prove that the world can't be tamed, and when people try to control civilization things only get worse.
Anyways it got me thinking about the best villians of all time, so here is my top 10 list.
1. Darth Vader - James Earl Jones - Star Wars
2. Hannibal Lecter - Anthony Hopkins - Silence of the Lambs
3. John 'Jack' Daniel Torrance - Jack Nicholson - The Shining
4. The Joker - Heath Ledger - The Dark Knight
5. Keyzer Soze - Kevin Spacey - The Usual Suspects
6. Max Cady - Cape Fear - Robert De Niro
7. Tyler Durden - Fight Club - Brad Pitt
8. Hans Gruber - Alan Rickman - Die Hard
9. Norman Bates - Anthony Perkins - Psycho
10. Annie Wilkes - Kathy Bates - Misery
