Your favourite Bad guy actor!

[Subb]

Well since I have fook all to do 'cause I have no school for 3 months I have decided to add another addition to "Subb's totally pointless threads".

Ok, this thread gives you the chance to tell other people who is your favourite baddie actor. (Totally pointless I know hehe)

Well my favourite is Lucifer from Constantine; I just loved the whole personality. Dunno what his name is and if you haven't seen it I recommend you do! It's one hell of a good film!

This is easy... Christoper Walken as the ArchAngel Gabriel in the movie Prophecy. (Which by the way is where I got that quote that sits beneath my Sig)

Speaking of good quote's from that movie...."I'm an angel. I kill firstborns while their mamas watch. I turn cities into salt. I even, when I feel like it, rip the souls from little girls, and from now till kingdom come, the only thing you can count on in your existence is never understanding why."

Never seen it, but I'm a huge fan of religious movies of Heaven vs. Hell and so forth.

My favorite is Jack Nickolson in "A few good men", "Batman", and "The Shining".

No!  Hands down, always and forever; Wallace Shawn.  'Nuff said.  IF you dont recognize his name, Google him.  When I think evil genious... I think of this man.

Although he wasn't really a bad guy, my vote goes Antonio Banderas in Interview With a Vampire. He was so deliciously and torturedly evil, which made him so innocently good at being bad. And the accent, and the long hair, and the vampire eyes, and the fangs, and the 17th century lace, and the soul-piercing stares, and the blood drinking, and the....

Well, you get the idea Did I mention I have a thing for vampires? Therefore, my choice may be a little biased

I would have to agree with Christopher Walken. He has had too many great bad guy performances spanning generations; including A View to a Kill (1985), Biloxi Blues (1988) and The Rundown (2003). He adds a level of intelligence and flair to everything he does and it comes across great. He is probably the best overall.
That or the obvious Hugo Weaving in the matrix movies because no one could have pulled off Smith like he did.

However, in terms of a single best bad guy performance, I think it goes to Tom Cruise in Collateral. It was shocking how well and realistically he portrayed that character and it was a role no one thought he could pull off; but he pulled it off, hands down.

Joe Pesci as Nicky Santoro in Casino.

Hugo Weaving as Agent Smith.

(Vincent from Collateral was great as well.)

I love Hugo Weaving, there's just something powerful about his presence, dunno why.

[Ketamininja]

Walken is a good choice!
Damn, can anything beat that for me?? Gary Oldman? Hmmmn.....
Nicholson is good too. Hehe can't believe the Wallace Shawn choice

OK, how about Top bad guy characters.

[Subb]

It's gotta be....The Joker from the first batman film, he was freaky, very freaky.

[Lits]

I agree, but for sheer creepiness, gotta go with the Penguin/Danny Devito. Joker was a criminal mastermind, the Penguin was just f*@#$! up.

[Tbone]

The first Batman is on TV right now...I was just watching a little of it. lol

[Subb]

The best bit is when they're in the gallery.

Honestly, after much thought, I think Gary Oldman wins it for me. Leon: The Professional... nuff said.
