Captain America: Civil War (May 6, 2016)

[Brainiac]

Amazing how MCU is handling their lower tier characters.

If I take anything away from MCU, that would be it.

CB didn't need to scream to get his purpose across.

His elevator scene was menacing.

Yeah he was pretty intense.......... a good performance

 

[GasparZizou]

Crossbones and Batroc were baws! Way more interesting than Malekith or Ronan, I can't wait to see CB fully suited.

But they're lower tier villains, Zod's a higher tier for me, I liked him a lot.

Thats the thing with Marvel, at least for now their super powerful villains, are kind of lame. But the more grounded bad guys are great. Grillo is more memorable than Malekith and Ronan combined

 

[BuddyGus]

Grillo would have made an excellent Punisher. Really excited to see him back as a full on CB though.

They had a shot with Malekith, he's supposed to be a fun joker type villain, but they made it all "Hmmph evil evil evil **** life! Everybody must die here's my doomsday device, I'm so bad"

[GasparZizou]

My list is:

Great:
Skull
Stane
Loki
Pierce

Ok or Good but don't have much weight or consequence:
Nebula
Batroc
CB
Whiplash
Zola

Everything else is crap in my book, the frost Giants were also butchered in the movie, they're supposed to be actual giants, and in Thor they're just a little roided out, a handful of Giants should be able to make Thor and his party retreat...

Not actually villains, more like plot devices or weapons but still cool:
TWS
Destroyer.

 

[The Clown Prince of Crime]

My list:

Loki...

I was going to place Pierce as great, but I took a point off for him not being the RS.

The Ice Giant king was well played and frightening.

I'm a bit surprised folks like Rumlow so much. He's got potential and all, but he just felt like a generic 2nd tier villain to me with his small handful of lines and scenes. And all Batroc did was sit around looking grumpy, then had a good fight scene. Yeah, they were in a good movie, but c'mon now. Better than Justin Hammer and Obadiah Stane?

Is that Grillo's car in the next Purge movie? Not nearly enough armor....

 

[Rambler]

DC Villain Track Record:

Great:
Superman

He did assist in the murder of 10's of thousands of people.

 

[karamazov80]

Rambler, that's unfair dude. He didn't just assist there, he took the lead. Credit where it is due.

 

[Johnny Utah]

No love for Ronan? Lee Pace was awesome!

 

[jye4ever]

I liked his look, voice, demeanor, drive and fortitude, the way he smack talked Thanos.

But he ultimately just sucked.

 

[karamazov80]

Though this runs contrary to the geek consensus, I thought Ronan and Malekith were both pretty good in the way that they presented themselves. They were both mean sons of *******. Yeah, they weren't "modern," charismatic bad guys the masses enjoy watching like Loki, "realistic," misguided ideologues like Pierce, or wacky/distinctive characters like Joker or Justin Hammer, but they fit the traditional bad guy mold. They presented a major threat that provided an impetus for the protagonists to take action. The problem I do see is that they fell into a typical kind of bad guy pattern. But that's the case with almost all villains in comic book movies. If every comic villain was trying to ape Joker or Loki I think we would all get bored of that pretty quickly.

 

[Johnny Utah]

Visually he would make a cool figure. It's just a massive fail when they make Trevor Slattery and not a cosmic villain from this film.

 

[Darth Snoopy]

I liked his look, voice, demeanor, drive and fortitude, the way he smack talked Thanos.

But he ultimately just sucked.

Ronan is now sad and tweeting about his sadness over what you said...

​

 

[jye4ever]

No, he's sending a tweet.

He must be talking with Doom.

Man does Lee Pace have long legs or what.
