More of the best villians...

Shredder from Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles was awesome. But here are some others for you to consider:

There is something villianous about the small town closed-mindedness exuded by this man in Hoosiers. His rejoicing in the final scenes of the film after the team's victory reveals his character. He somehow deluded himself into believing that he was part of the reason that they won.

And of course how can we forget our favorite bad guy--John Creese--the martial arts sensay who taught a group of mis-guided, rough kids to offer "no mercy!" because they will get no mercy from anyone on the streets of life. I like his devious pose in the picture below. Johnny was only ever a blonde pawn in Creese's game. Ryan.

Villians

I really like certain villians in television or movies. I don't necessarily want them to triumph over good, but when you have a villian where you just despise them, it just makes the show more exciting. It makes the victory of the hero sweeter. If I were to star in a movie, I'd want to play the evil person because I want to be able to terrorize the good people but then at the end be conquered by the hero. These are some of my favorite villians and I will tell you why.

Darth Vader needs no introduction. I like him because he strikes fear into the hearts of everyone in the Galactic Empire. Even those who support him, fear him. He's probably the most powerful villian listed.



Benjamin Linus from the television show "Lost." He has no special power. His genius comes from playing with people's minds. He has the innate abililty to get inside someone's mind and make them doubt themselves. Ben always remains ten steps ahead of everyone else and knows how to lie convincingly.



Sylar from the television show "Heroes." This guy just scares me to death. He's always lurking in dark corners and what makes him so terrifying is his complete carelessness for human life. He kills anyone who stands in his way or has something he wants without a thought. He has no regret for all the people he's murdered.


The infamous Lex Luther. The genius determined to kill Superman. I enjoy him as a villian because of his heartlessness and greed. He's always setting out to gain for himself. He will never destroy Superman, he's no match for the man of steel.

I know that a lot of people like Dr. Laura, but I am not one of them. She makes my head hurt and my brain wants to explode. I was disgusted by her latest comments on a talk show about the Spitzer scandal...
I am paraphrasing of course, but she felt like b/c his wife was not building him up and making him feel respected at home and not keeping him satisfied, he had to go and find that somewhere else. She basically blames his wife for driving him to hookers. HMMMMMMMMMMMMM
Did anyone else hear her comments? Am I just a femminist freak? Or is she weird? I know that some people are awful to live with and/or be married too, but does that mean it is their fault if their spouse strays?? cheating just seems so low to me, and for someone to be "driven" to it is ridiculous. You dont get along, you haven't had sex in years, she doesnt make dinner for you, she makes you do your own ironing....whatever the reason, getting in the situation where you can have an affair is still beyond me. A marraige is a partnership, right? If one partner is not holding up their end of the bargain, does that break all the rules and allow you to go find a midnight lover? I just dont think we should blame other people for our own choices or transgressions. After all, didn't you choose to be married to this person.
Whatever, I hate dr. laura...
