All the James Bond Movie Villains, RankedIn 60 years, there have been 25 James Bond films and just as many villains (actually more). Which are the best and the worst? In any ranking of villains, we have to make clear that they are not graded on how evil they are, or how smart they are, or even on how successful they are.What's really important is how entertaining they are while trying to take over the world or just kill agent 007. Therefore, the ranking has to do with how the characters are written, the coolness of their unique concept, and how well the actor inhabits the character. Still, the finished product is all that matters. Den of Geek makes that clear in their ranked list of Bond villains, as no.25 is described as "the most boring pair of villains on either side of the Iron Curtain." Since they are a pair, we need to explain that multiple villains in the same movie get ranked together. So what this is, is a list of the 25 James Bond films ranked by how well the audience enjoyed the bad guys. It's enough to make you want to go out and watch some of those movies all over again. #JamesBond #007 #villain
Disney Villains EyeglassesWatching Disney movies, you cannot deny they wouldn’t be half as fun without the villains. However, these iconic characters often get left behind when it comes to merchandising. The Japanese eyewear brand Zoff is here to correct that. Zoff is launching an eyeglasses collection dedicated to Disney villains.The four devilish darlings featured on the Villains collection are Maleficent from Sleeping Beauty, The Wicked Queen from Snow White, Cruella De Vil from 101 Dalmations, and Ursula from The Little Mermaid. Each design bears iconic details inspired by the character that fans will surely be thrilled to notice. The Maleficent eyewear has horns in the corners of its frame. The Wicked Queen glasses draw inspiration from 1930s crown panto style specs, a nod to its 1937 release date. Another key detail is the temples adorned with images of the Magic Mirror. The Cruella edition is definitely unmistakable - its half white and half black visage totally gives it away. Lastly, the Ursula version, sporting gorgeous light purple shade with its temples studded like tentacles and temple tips shaped like her shell necklace. Each pair of the glasses retail at 13,300 yen (US$ 112.72). Evil never looked so good!via SoraNews24​#Disney #villain #DisneyVillain #exeglasses #eyewear #Zoff #WickedQueen #SnowWhite #CruellaDeVil #101Dalmatians #Ursula #TheLittleMermaid
Playing a Batman Villain Can Be Psychologically DamagingThe new movie The Batman opens this weekend, and only time will tell whether Robert Pattinson can fill the shoes of the Dark Knight. In this one, Batman battles Paul Dano as the Riddler. Catwoman is in the mix, although she's not exactly portrayed as a classic villain.There is nothing inherently bad about playing a villain in Gotham City. However, as the movies became darker and more serious, they became less like comic book characters and more malevolent. In the 1960s, the Joker, the Riddler, and the Penguin were played for laughs. It was a little less so in the movie series that began with Jack Nicholson playing the Joker, but still played for laughs. The real break was when Heath Ledger took on the role of the Joker in 2008's The Dark Knight. Movie audiences were hesitant to accept that pretty boy Ledger could pull it off, but his Joker was so psychotically evil and so convincing that it set a whole new standard for the villains to come. Afterward, every actor put his heart and soul into playing the villain in subsequent Batman films, and paid for it, particularly those playing the Joker. Heath Ledger, Joaquin Phoenix, Jared Leto, Tommy Lee Jones, and Paul Dano all suffered psychological trauma while filming their roles. Mel magazine explains each, and also dips back in time for a story about Danny DeVito's traumatic experience playing the Penguin.#Batman #Joker #Riddler #Batmanvillain #villain 
What Made Daniel Plainview Such a Terrifying Villain? Nerdstalgic gave us a deep dive into the character of Hans Landa from Inglourious Basterds, played by Christoph Waltz, and why he was so terrifying. Another villain who really stays with us is the cruel, cold-blooded Daniel Plainview, played by Daniel Day-Lewis in the 2007 movie There Will Be Blood. There was nothing subtle about Plainview. He is the ultimate bully, one you can never escape. He is cold, calculating, determined, and knows exactly how far to go to get what he wants from anyone who stands in his way. But Plainview is not just a parody. believable as a real person, which only makes the character more dread-inducing. Director Paul Thomas Anderson had Daniel Day-Lewis in mind when writing the script, now we can't imagine any other actors pulling the part off as well. He holds nothing back.
