I am the architect I created the matrix
I've been waiting for you every movie
needs a good bad guy and these guys were
the best at being the worst
Bruce Wayne diamonds hmm welcome to
watchmojo.com and today we're counting
down our picks for the top ten worst
movie villains just want to do whatever
serves the corporation best for this
list we're taking a look at villains who
basically ruined their respective movies
whether that's because they had terrible
backstories were poorly performed or
their motives made no sense
[Music]
number 10 General Grievous Star Wars
Episode three Revenge of the Sith
while the Star Wars prequels are often
reviled they did manage to give us a few
interesting villains in Darth Maul and
then Chancellor Palpatine
unfortunately General Grievous is not up
to par sure with his four lightsabers
Grievous looks cool but he turns out to
be pretty weak he spends the whole movie
coughing up until the midway point when
he's killed by obi-wan by a blaster of
all things he also serves little purpose
to the main story involving Anakin
turning to the dark side and receives
almost zero character development making
him one of many pointless characters in
the prequel trilogy number nine King
Koopa super mario brothers disgusting
battles if there's one character on this
list whose film adaptation straits
furthest from its source material its
King Koopa King Koopa was a giant turtle
like creature that always kidnapped
Princess Peach in the super mario
brothers video games fans of the
Nintendo game series eagerly anticipated
seeing what the reptilian body would
look like in the feature film adaptation
what they got was a guy in a suit played
by Dennis Hopper muster the goombas
[Music]
where's my pizza
not only was Koopa wildly different from
the source material Hopper himself was
also miscast which was disappointing to
say the least not frightening and
certainly not intimidating King Koopas
just boring number eight the shark jaws
the revenge
remember how scary the shark was in the
first jaws film well after three sequels
the Sharks have apparently developed not
only some kind of super power but also
complex emotions like spite in the
fourth and final installment of the jaws
series a shark is looking for vengeance
against the Brody family after they
killed the sharks in the previous films
somehow this shark is able to travel
from New England to the Bahamas in a few
days and is able to track down sheriff
Brody's wife Ellen how does it know
where Ellen is vacationing does any of
this make sense whatsoever of course not
this villain is just plain stupid along
with the rest of the movie come and get
me you son of a [ __ ] number seven
Dominic Greene Quantum of Solace
I'm sorry mr. Greene but we have to go
things my friends call me Dominic I'm
sure they do in Dominic Greene's defense
he was in a difficult position Casino
Royale Lucia and sky Falls Ralph Silva
are two of the best Bond villains ever
and he was expected to live up to both
as the bad guy in the intervening
double-oh-seven flick I answered your
questions I told you what you wanted to
know about quantum yes you did
and your friends that know that so
they're probably looking for you however
even when taking that into consideration
there is absolutely nothing about mr.
green that's memorable his plan to sell
water at an overly inflated price is
painfully boring and actor Mets you're
amazed Nick isn't able to add much as
he's pretty low on charisma in this role
please don't talk to me like I'm stupid
it's unattractive as far as Bond movies
are concerned Green is just like
everything else about Quantum of Solace
he's about as bland and uninspired as
they come you doubt that then shoot me
take that money and have a good night
number six benjamin chudnofsky also
known as blood knocks key the Green
Hornet the bounty $1,000,000 the prey
The Green Hornet did now it may seem
sacrilegious to put Christoph Waltz on a
worst villains list especially after his
role as Colonel Hans Landa in
Inglourious Basterds but unfortunately
not even he can make blood navi a
compelling character I'm up salute I'm a
dinosaur not in the scary way in the
extinct wing letnov ski is a mob boss
who spends the whole movie complaining
about whether or not people find him
scary the roll sounds tailor-made for
someone charming yet menacing like waltz
however the problem is in the writing of
the character and the audience isn't
really sure if they're supposed to find
him funny or scary either in the end we
feel neither and he just comes off as
whiny and annoying I want the head
important and why did you wait number 5
Ivan ooze Mighty Morphin Power Rangers
the movie smells like
teenagers okay so you can't really
expect a villain as dark or complex as
the Joker or Hannibal Lecter in a Power
Rangers movie however fans of the TV
series still could have gotten someone a
bit better than Ivan ooze globally
reviled universally despised they call
me Ivan
not only does Ivan look more silly than
scary his evil scheme to take over the
world he's ridiculous as well his master
plan is to sell magical use to kids
and convinced them to throw it at their
parents which will then cause the
parents to turn into mindless zombies he
then orders the parents to walk off a
cliff and sends them to their death
sounds stupid trust us it is
number four aliens signs here's a
monster in my room a little classroom
blogger director M night Shyamalan is no
stranger to terrible villains help the
villains in the happening were freaking
plants for crying out loud but
interestingly enough his weakest
villains actually came in one of his
better movies signs is centered on
aliens who are invading earth that
sounds cool until you discovered their
weakness I heard a theory that they
don't like places near water turns out
they can be completely and easily
destroyed by water you know water the
thing that makes up about 71% of Earth's
so then why would the aliens want to
even invade Earth only Shyamalan could
tell you
[Music]
number three
Mr Freeze Batman and Robin we could
easily make a top-10 list of reasons why
Batman and Robin is an abysmal movie our
number one reason would probably be the
campy mr. freeze played by a campy
Arnold Schwarzenegger while it does
include the tragic freeze back story
about his sick wife the movie treats the
character as a joke making him far less
compelling than he might have been
instead of being pitiful he hides in an
ice cream factory and spends the entire
movie shouting painfully unfunny ice
puns allow me to break the ice
my name is freeze valid well what's the
chilling sound of your doom
mr. freeze was so bad in fact he helped
nearly kill the superhero movie genre as
a whole
number two Turrell
Battlefield Earth reach for the gun John
Travolta performances are hit or miss
and you can tell just by looking at his
ridiculous hairstyle and by listening to
his painfully hammy dialogue that this
one is a Miss and believe it or not
Turrell
acts even more ridiculous than he looks
pretend that you're not a complete
imbecile and check the combo gradients
Colonel is supposed to be a brilliant
mastermind yet he comes up with the
idiotic plan to teach a human who he has
enslaved a crash course on his advanced
alien technology so the human will mine
gold that he will then hand over to
Turrell as a gesture to our new working
relationship I will grant you this one
request Turrell then sends him
unsupervised to a military base full of
jets and bombs and somehow does not
expect him to lead a human revolt
against his race not even dr. evil had
plans this dumb don't you have some work
to do okay all right sir before we
unveil our number one pick here are some
honorable mentions we can find a way to
settle this
you're so right I'm thinking humiliation
kind of like how you humiliated me
partners I believe you cannot run a
business without partners this is a
business isn't it oh yes it is
we knew there had to be a better way to
keep someone alive other than cutting
them open like some free-range chicken
free-range chickens with their big brown
ugly-ass eggs they pissed me off every
time I think about those big brown eggs
they piss me off bleh ready to die
was born ready I like that nothing can
alter your destiny nor mine you want to
know how I survived that place get me
alive gave me strength power what kind
of power
the kind men like you must never possess
number one nuclear man Superman for the
quest for peace
where is the woman give it up you'll
never find her if you will not tell me I
won't hurt people where do we begin with
how dumb nuclear man is well first off
he's created from a nuclear reaction
involving the Sun and a strand of
Superman's hair he's born with a mullet
and wearing a black and gold unitard but
has Lex Luthor's voice for some reason
destroy destroy Superman now he also has
radioactive nails that he uses to
scratch Superman and instead of having
kryptonite as a weakness he loses his
strength when it's a cloudy day in the
end he loses all his power after
Superman blocks his source of power the
son later stashing him in a power plant
reactor absolutely nothing about nuclear
man makes any sense so it's difficult to
watch him without bursting out laughing
and what do you fear do you agree with
our list which movie villains do you
think are the worst you're scary Gary
you just said I'm not no no you are
you're for more hilarious top 10s
