Villains

Bored of writing my application for the Graduate librarian position at the Met office and killing time before I have to leave for work I decided to compile a list of some of my favourite film villains.

1. Maleficent from Sleeping Beauty and her familiar/pet raven, Diablo


Maleficent is my favourite Disney Villain, although Jafar/Iago are very close second.

2. Hans Gruber from Die Hard


I knew Alan Rickman would definitely be in my list but I couldn't decide what for, Snape and the Sheriff of Nottingham were close contenders, but ultimately, it's gotta be Hans.

3. Carl Showalter from Fargo


I love Steve so much, it breaks my heart when he ends up in the wood chipper :(

4. Roy from Blade Runner



Blade Runner is generally awesome but Rutger Hauer as leader of the Nexus-6 replicants is totally amazing. Also Roy gets two photos because the bit when he sticks his head through the wall is dead ace.

5. The Velociraptors from Jurassic Park


That kitchen scene is full on intense.

  1. Maleficient is great. Hans for the win - I'm not sure if this is in order? If it is the velociraptors would be higher and Cruella Deville (the real Glenn Close one) would replace Steve Buscemi, but only coz I haven't seen Fargo. Also Lector would be in there somewhere. And perhaps Umbridge. But DEFINITELY Trunchbull.

  2. Haha, nah it wasn't in any particular order. I totally forgot about Lector! How could I?! Antony Hopkins is amazingggg. I'm well disappointed with myself for forgetting the Trunch :( I'll write another post including your brilliant suggestions :D
