I think best movie villains might be a good tournament to do at some point.

Darth Vader would just win that.

T2 and it isn’t close. For anyone saying die hard, I need your clothes, your boots and your motorcycle.

This is pretty much the universal top villain in most polls...

Now, a most hated movie character tournament would be fun. That could present a variety of options. For instance, Voldemort is the bad guy in Harry Potter but professor Umbridge is the most hated character in HP. I'm sure many people have their own characters they absolutely hated that are not the normal good or bad guy.

Yea that's true. There are a few that might compete but that probably wouldn't be the best because it's like you have a predetermined winner going in. Heath Ledgers Joker would probably give Vader a run for his money. But most of the fun in the tournaments come in the non finals matchups anyway.

I do like the most hated character though, that'd probably be pretty competitive.

Depends. In the first few movies, he was one-dimensional and boring. A cookie-cutter villain (just a henchman for the real villain, really).

It was not until we get backstory in the third movie and the prequels that he became even-remotely interesting, IMO.

I have pretty much the exact opposite opinion. I think Darth Vader was a way better villain before the prequels.

She dropped the ball on purpose, Dammit! Dottie would have my vote too! She let all of her teammates down.

Both are nostalgic and way back in the day were true action movies. Sad to see Die Hard get beaten by John Frickin Wick, so…


Terminator 2 is my vote!

What tournament are you reading?

John Wick (sadly) beat Lethal Weapon several rounds ago. While that is a travesty and crime against cinema, Die Hard is one of the two finalists

... and you just voted against it.
