Top 10 (11) coolest villains
By coolest I mean they either need to act cool, or look cool, or both. So Newman from Seinfeld, or Norman Bates for example, dont work for me.
1. Darth Vader
2. The Terminator
3. Hannibal Lecter - Silence of the Lambs
4. Al Swearengen - Deadwood
5. Gus Fring - Breaking Bad
6. The Joker - Heath Ledger only
7. Hans Landa - Inglorious Basterds
8. Loki - Marvel universe movies
9. Agent Smith - The Matrix
10. Hans Gruber - Die Hard
11. Anton Chigurh - No Country for Old Men
1 and 2 are set in stone. The rest are up for debate in terms of order, or even shuffle in/out one or two
Others considered: The Governor (Walking Dead), Vern Schillinger (Oz), Wilson Fisk (Daredevil), Trinity Killer (Dexter), Roy Batty (Blade Runner)
