Oh crap... I feel bad for forgetting Hans Gruber. He was an exceptional thief!

Nagi Hassan (Executive Decision)

Here's your stereotypical a-hole terrorist on the big screen. He hijacks a plane and loads it with enough poisonous gas to kill the entire East Coast. He threatens to crash the plane unless the U.S. government releases an Albanian terrorist. But despite the immediate release of the terrorist, Hassan proceeds to send the plane on its course of destruction. And when he finds out that Phil Grant (Kurt Russell) and the special ops have defused the bomb aboard the plane, he shoots through the cockpit, killing both pilots.

Uh... Adolf Hitler was an actual person, not a movie badguy.

And how did we miss the ultimate baddie: Ash's possessed, severed hand from Evil Dead 2!

Yeah, but he's been protrayed in movies, so technically he's a movie badguy.

My badguy trumps all of your badguys combined.

As a movie bad guy, Hitler wasn't all that. Especially on Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade.

As a matter of fact, Saddam Hussein and Kim Jong-Il made better movie bad guys than Hitler did.

Killing six million Jews ain't enough for you?  You sir, are f*cking hardcore!  I salute you.

I have a rule: "no hard liquor until the sun goes down".  But I just feel like getting sh1t-faced for some reason.

Dude, that was in real life. On-screen portrayals of Hitler don't come close.

What are you talking about? If Hitler is in the movie and it takes place between 1942 and 1945, then the Holocaust counts.

Well, in that case, which Hitler movie did you have in mind? (Don't say Schindler's List, as he wasn't even in that film.)

  • Commodus (Gladiator, 2000) - "AM I NOT MERCIFUL?!"

Then you would need to nominate Comrade Joseph Stalin and Mao-tze Tung as the baddest since they both hold the records for killing people (Stalin stands at over 20 million and there is a new book out from China that states Mao killed even more).

But, since we want movies, I'm gonna add Sherriff Teasle and Deputy Sherriff Gault from First Blood.

Deputy Sherriff Art Gault - 'What's the matter Mitch? Don't you like water sports?'

I'm curious, have either of them ever been protrayed in a movie?

I think Keifer Sutherland in Phone Booth was best movie badguy of all time IMHO.

If we're going to edge over into animated characters then I'll mention Galvatron. That villain personifies every attribute that could be associated with an evil character...
