There are these villains I hate the most: Walter Peck, Mayor Vaughn, Carter Burke, Dolores Umbridge, Major Arnold Toht, and that Prince Hump-Your-Dick-On-Thy-Anus!!
WatchMojo, PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE with sugar on it, do a Top 10 Kids TV Shows ON TV Channel PBS???? Here are my picks… 10. The Toy Castle 9. George Shrinks 8. Liberty’s Kids 7. The Berenstain Bears 6. Elliot Moose 5. Timothy Goes To School 4. Angelina Ballerina 3. Wishbone 2. Shining Time Station 1. Sagwa the Chinese Siamese Cat Dragon Tales & Arthur? I don’t think so….
And what about: Jimmy Reno From Road House 1 (1989) Alexander From Harley Davidson & the Marlboro Man (1991) William "Wild Bill" Decaire From Road House 2 (2006) Arthur Galt From Rambo 1: First Blood (1982) Bennett From Commando (1985) Karl Vreski From Die Hard 1 (1988) Richter From Total Recall (1990) Pieter Vorstedt From Lethal Weapon 2 (1989) Requin From Tango & Cash (1989) Manly, Wiley and Mastrone From Lock Up (1989) Johnny the Boy From Mad Max 1 (1979)
The problem there is Percy was the PRIMARY antagonist. Wild Bill may have been responsible for Coffe's imprisonment, but it was Percy who was the movie's main source of conflict.
@@legionairebYeah, 100% agree with your there. Percy wasn’t some side character, he’s technically listed as the secondary antagonist of both the book and movie. I’d agree with you he’s the cause of most obstacles so could be considered primary but even secondary antagonists wouldn’t be considered ‘side characters’ they’re more important to the story.
What makes Umbridge so effective is unlike Voldemort, who was a fantastical Big Bad, she was far too relatable because everyone recognised her traits in that one sadistic teacher they hated, or that spiteful, child-hating old lady they always avoided, or that petty, vindictive person in a position of authority that you were forced to deal with. Helped along by an utterly masterful performance by the great Imelda Staunton as well.
Not only awful teachers, but try working a job where you have someone like Umbridge as your boss. I worked for a Dolores Umbridge-like authority figure from a previous job I worked. It was at a pretty big company too. She was the ultimate power-hungry and micromanaging narcissist. An absolute insufferable, petty, vindictive, and dictatorial tyrant that hides behind this charming, kind, and gentle façade, but then jumps down your throat and humiliates you the second she thinks you are challenging or even questioning her methods, or her reign.
Lucius upon seeing Umbridge: Compared to you, I'm like a saint. Voldemort: I shall take notes for further study.... Bellatrix: *proceeds to laugh like a maniac*
Burke should be #1, why? He alone is responsible for over 80 families deaths, a squad of marines and and was playing Ripley the whole time. His need for greed showed even less humanity than the Xenomorphs, after all "I don't know which species is worse, at least you don't see'em killing each other for a goddamn percentage"
No. Umbridge is far more relatable to people for all the wrong reasons. Everyone has met a person who acted like Umbridge in one form or another. Think of any spiteful teacher you had in school. Or the person behind the counter at the DMV who made you wait 2 hours for something that can be done in 2 minutes. Or the head of an HOA who lets authority go to her head and fined you for having a garden. The entitled woman at a grocery store who cuts in line at the checkout counter. ....Just think of any of the "Karen" horror stories you've read about online.
@@MrRobarino Mate....are you comparing....Umbridge to...someone who ...knew for a fact yet lied to everyone....but got hundreds killled and if had gotten away...trillons would have died? everyone would've!
@@themastema1189 I think what they are comparing isn't the death toll. We as humans have a statistical sealing of what we could empathize with. Example: You know one person who died vs seeing 100 people die vs hearing how 10,000 people died. Once the stake get so astronomically large (over 50 million), we are well out of the scope of empathizing with the victims unless we see a scrolling list of names and pictures. Burke's and in turn Weyland-Yutani's actions of how many who'd die is freaking barbaric at best, no one disagrees, but as viewers, the idea of trillions and more dying is literally impossible to imagine. We don't have--rather we can't have--empathy for the individuals we see off screen. We feel more for the onscreen characters because to the viewer, they are real. Now, with Umbridge, it becomes the opposite because, most if not all viewers know someone like her in real life that has made their lives a living hell. It's not because of her kill count, but because of who she is and what she represents to the viewer. With Burke and Weyland-Yutani, we think of billionaires, current day companies and corporate suits as their closest counterpart. With Umbridge, we think of that one teacher/customer/person who lorded their minuscule power over us to wreck our day. Which one is more personal? Tl;dr, Proximity is more important than magnitude. TV Tropes "A million is a Statistic" and Dunbar's number.
As tvtropes put it: Umbridge was hated because while most of us will likely never meet a Voldemort, everyone has met at least one Umbridge. In my case it was an HR at my previous job. I hated her guts, and so did most of my coworkers. Let’s just say that the day she retired was one of my happiest workdays during my time there. Which says a lot because I worked there for more than a decade
@@wyldhowl2821 I had a Dolores Umbridge/Nurse Ratched-esque authority figure as my boss from a previous job I worked. It was at a pretty big company too. She was the ultimate power-hungry narcissist. An absolute insufferable, petty, vindictive, and dictatorial tyrant that hides behind this charming, kind, and gentle façade, but then jumps down your throat and humiliates you the second she thinks you are challenging or even questioning her methods, or her reign.
That actress that played Dolores Umbridge has got to be one of the best actresses ever. She made the whole franchise and beyond hate her and that's great acting!
I have been a fan of Imelda Staunton since 1990. Casting her as Umbridge was pure genius. I was thrilled when it was announced. And, yes, she is a kind and lovely person in real life!
Personally I never hated Peck. He was set on edge by how Venkman treated him from the outset, added to that Venkman not cooperating in any fashion acting like they have something to hide he acted accordingly.
@@traj7196 Honestly, an EPA agent going "what the fuck, no one has investigated the outcomes of this" has never been more relatable. The Ghostbusters did bad science.
@@legionairebone flaw in the movies is it never explains why he is the way he is, but when it’s explained in writings you realize he’s actually a pretty strong man that even Sauron couldn’t actually corrupt, so instead he worked to demoralize him
@@bullgravy6906 That's part of it, but Peter Jackson actually took intentional steps to make Denethor appear even worse, taking tactical choices that were made by Denethor in the books and giving them to others, making him look like a bad ruler in addition to a flawed father.
In the first Star Wars movie in 1977, Grand Moff Tarkin was far more sinister than Darth Vader. After all, Tarkin ordered the destruction of Alderaan. We only heard of Vader's evil in the first movie through what we were told by Obi Wan, but through Tarkin's actions, we actually saw it.
In my opinion Elle Driver doesn't deserve to be in this list. She is badass, charismatic and probably the best fighter among the 5 killers on the Bride's list.
CJ Boddicker was one of the best villains EVER. Just looking at him, you think he's some nobody, but he's a deliciously vicious mastermind who isn't afraid of anything.
The reason why is that Voldermort is very classic cartoonish, "Look at me, I very spoopy and evil, mwahahaha", whereas EVERYONE has known an Umbridge in their lifetime.
Clarence Boddicker is more someone you love to hate than actually hate, and someone you enjoy. It helps that the movie is a satire, and Kurtwood Smith's performance just adds so much to the character. He could have portrayed Clarence a million different ways, but he comes across as a guy just having fun being horrible. He's just a guy who really likes his job which is being evil. RoboCop is a treat in general. Miguel Ferrer treating Robo like his new badass toy, The Old Man telling a man whose robot just murdered someone "I'm very disappointed in you." Love it!
Can’t believe Ross from the MCU, the secretary from Independence Day, or a MAJORITY of the ant colony from Bug’s Life weren’t on here. Cypher had reasonable motives and Boddicker was actually a enjoyable villain
It's a toss-up. Usually corporate villains seem worse because of the greed they represent and the wealth/power they wield, but Boddicker takes such relish in his evil that he arguably overshadows even Dick Jones in the villain/hate-sink stakes.
I was about to rage if she wasn't. My list would have been: 10 Dolores Umbridge 9 Dolores Umbridge 8 Dolores Umbridge 7 Dolores Umbridge 6 Dolores Umbridge 5 Dolores Umbridge 4 Dolores Umbridge 3 Dolores Umbridge 2 Dolores Umbridge 1 Dolores Umbridge
Two more suggestions: Dennis Nedry and Donald Generro in Jurassic Park. But if we're treating all the dinosaurs across the entire franchise as the main villains, then I'd argue that the secondary human baddies in the last three Jurassic World films were increasingly more loathesome with each film, starting with Hoskins, moving on to the murderous Eli Mills (the first human villain in the franchise to intentionally kill another human, rather than recklessly cause their deaths), and finally the guy who started it all, Dodgson.
The bad people in the Jurassic movies are the true villains. Even though the carnivorous dinosaurs are a danger to the characters, they are just animals
I’ll be honest about Robocop - I thought Miguel Ferrer’s character was the most despicable. Yes he created Robocop, but he did so by intentionally putting cops in harm’s way and showing zero compassion for anyone. He was the smarmy, stereotypical corporate “climb over the corpses of your colleagues” character. Unlike Boddicker, who’d gladly shoot you while facing you, Ferrer’s character would shake your hand and compliment you just before stabbing you in the back.
The only thing that I see wrong with this list is naming "the old man" as the main villain in ROBOCOP, Dick Jones played by Ronny Cox is the real main villain
Umbridge makes the rest who made the list likable. She's that one old neighbour who is convinced that her way is the only way. She's that one old lady who bothers shop managers and innocent bystanders over food ingredients that have discontinued over 100 years ago.
I was thinking Percy from the Green Mile, but realized he is at most tied with Wild Bill. Wild Bill is definitely the more evil of the two but Percy has so many more opportunities to show his nastiness.
You've just explained why Percy fits the criteria. Wild Bill is the ostensible main villain/biggest monster of the two, but Percy is arguably the most loathesome, possibly because he is so petty and treated like a normal guy who's allowed to operate in a position of respectable authority, rather than locked behind bars.
Boris Johnson said the mayor from ‘Jaws’ was the true good guy - and Boris used him as a template for how he dealt with Covid when he was Prime Minister 🤯
In the novel Jaws, Vaughn is under pressure from the mafia. And Denethor was a heroic figure for most of his life. He's a classic Shakespearian tragic hero, in that loss has driven him straight up mad.
I really miss that snob dude from Titanic in this list. Plus, if you hate those characters, somebody did a great job. Because that is called acting and character writing.
@@GregOrCreg well, technically there are 7 kinds of conflicts, like men vs men, men vs gods or men vs nature which this should be. You don't always need a human villan. Sometimes you don't even need a token dumb*ss which like all of James Cameron movies have.
Cal Hockley was the villain in Titanic, the guy you may be thinking about was Lovejoy(can't remember his first name) who did all the dirty work for Hockley.
1. Major Grant played by John Amos in Die Hard 2: Die Harder. 2. Commander Peter Krill played by Gary Busey in Under Siege. 3. Xenia Onnatop played by Famke Jansen in Goldeneye. 4. Mr. Joshua played by Gary Busey in Lethal Weapon. 5. Bellatrix Lestrange played by Helena Bonham Carter in Harry Potter franchise. 6. Stephen Warren played by Samuel L Jackson in Django Unchained.
Major Grant was mostly likeable until his true colours were revealed. And even when he was revealed as a villain, he was still at least a fighter rather than a coward. Krill was an idiot, but, once again, no coward, same as Busey's character in Lethal Weapon. And Xenia was also a strong-willed, tough character. Most hateful side characters are either cowards/non-fighters or slimeballs.
You know what's ironic? When he was still alive, my dad looked very similar to that of Kurtwood Smith, especially when he co-starred as Clarence Boddicker in the 1st Robocop. And no, Kurtwood Smith is not my father. He just looked very similar, if not fully identical, to my real dad.
Actually, Denathor was just a tragic character. He was influenced by Sauron, and losing Boromir just tipped the scales. It was his grief that destroyed him. I never saw him as that bad. Also, in the book, Aragon and Denathor had the same amount of right to be the king. In fact, Denathor is the right king, as his family ruled that region for a long time. Aragon had no right to rule unless all of Denathor's family died. Aragon became king because of his charisma and role in saving Middle Earth. Also, Faramir gave up the role to Aragon, as Aragon seemed to be a better king. To me, I hated the mayor of Jaws and Jaws 2 so much especially because he got away with his vileness. That guy should have been out of the office, at least. The citizens seem to be morons for keeping that guy in the office, or he did a great cover-up.
Dr Frederick Chilton in Silence of the Lambs. I hate to mitigate Hannibal Lector's crimes, seeing that a certain Presidential candidate is already doing that right now...but Chilton is genuinely more obnoxious than the main villain.
What about Lord Cutler Beckett from the Pirates of the Caribbean franchise (he was a ruthless tyrant who was no better than Davey Jones himself, and in a deleted scene from At World's End, it's implied that he condoned and took part in shipping slaves in the name of economics, which even Jack Sparrow admitted was one of the things he would never do, even if drunk).
Im going to go further in defending cypher he was told here pick a pill with no idea how bleak and horrifying the real world was he wanted to go back into denial Morpheus doesn’t exactly take his time picking candidates
Ivan Mercer from Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest and At World's End was a little weasel too, had no problem with the way Davy Jones killed him off.
Edward II in Braveheart. His father the king is a straight-up hardcore villain, but his foppish useless son is just a disgrace. Also in Braveheart, Robert The Bruce's father.
I so strongly disagree with Mayor Larry Vaughn. He wasn't a villain motivated by greed; he was a man trying to do the right thing for his town and its inhabitants, not understanding the choices he had to make until it was too late (as shown by Murray Hamilton's excellent performance in Vaughn's last scene, in the hospital, where he's truly in shock at his realization). He's not evil, nor a villain. Just a fundamentally honest, but humanly flawed character trying to do the right thing.
I agree. He was a fool who buried his head in the sand, IMHO, but he wasn't evil. Just really misguided. I don't hate him as much as some of the others on this list (although I'm also inclined to defend Walter Peck to some degree, even if I enjoyed the Busters referring him as 'dickless').
Kurtwood Smith was so convincing as Clarence Boddicker, that I can't unsee him in any role he did after that, including Red Foreman in 'That 70s Show' and as attorney David Boies in 'The Dropout'
😭 I absolutely hate Denethor. He’s a horrible leader refusing to protect his own people. He treats Faramir horribly. Plus his hair is just disgusting all greasy 😂
When i was a kid back in the 90s after my brother and i seen Robocop we found Clarence absolutely hysterical.. we went to school in Bournemouth southern England repeating all his phrases "bitches leave " "just give me my fuckin telephone call" "i dont like cops an cops dont like me " etc etc at any opportunity.. before long most of the lads at school were doing it ... That actor will never know how loved he was by a school in England 😂
Ellen Abbot - Gone Girl - She aggravated the situation as she ruined the innocent protagonist and greatly supported the antagonist, only with her own interest.
I knew Deloris Umbridge would be on the list. Other people on my list are Dennis Nedry from Jurassic Park, Cocteau from Demolition Man and Darth Jar Jar, I mean Jar Jar Binks.
This line sums up the distinction between the 'Big Bad' and those slimy, secondary villains that we *truly* hate: "You know, Burke, I don't know which species is worse. You don't see them fucking each other over for a goddamn percentage."
I just hope Imelda Staunton (who played Umbridge) didn’t receive death threats from die hard fans as if she IS the character in real life. I feel bad for actors who are best known for playing monsters, as I’d imagine people just see them as that character. 😢
@@georgeeastwood6930 I'm a long-time fan of Imelda Staunton going back to the 80s and 90s, and mostly know her for sympathetic roles, before and after Harry Potter, so I hate to think that there are people who only know her for HP, and who might be prejudiced against her simply because of how loathesome that one single character is.
@@GregOrCreg I’ve always wondered if something similar happened with Peter Cushing because of “Star Wars”, where he played that space Nazi who ordered the death & destruction of Leia’s home planet while she is imprisoned on the Death Star.
Though it didn’t make it on this list, I would argue that the worst villain in the Terminator movies is Cyberdyne Systems since they are responsible for creating SkyNet and the terminators in the first place.
Clarence Boddicker terrified me. He’s definitely one of the best villains in cinema. Kurtwood Smith’s performance was both surprising and outstanding. Toht should’ve easily made the list. Ronald Lacey created a character so creepy and unsettling that you were sure he kept people in his basement to torture for fun.
Gotta love how when it comes to Kill Bill the narrator makes it sound like Budd is somehow the worst of the bunch because he's sexist, ignoring Gogo Yubari who is a Sadist, or O-Ren Ishi a literal Yakuza Boss.
I don't understand the recent bootlicking simpery for Walter Peck. He's an insecure, meddling Fed that would've turned a blind eye to the Ghostbusters if they were billionaires, so relax.
He also accused the Ghostbusters of "faking" hundreds of ghost sightings all over New York - and after "he" had blown up their reactor, hundreds more at the same time - without any proof for his claim or ever even mentioning any logical idea how exactly they are supposed to have done that. For reminders, even today there don´t really exists any technology able to do that.
Harry Ellis - Die Hard (1988) Brock Rumlow/Crossbones - Captain America series (2011 -) Logan Ash - No Time to Die (2021) Dylan Gould - Transformers: Dark of the Moon (2011) Charlie Hesketh - Kingsman franchise (2014 -) Reinhardt - Blade ll (2002) Quentin Glass - The Punisher (2004) Savin - Iron Man 3 (2013) Parker Selfridge and Lyle Wainfleet - Avatar (2009) Sylva - Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes (2024) Rictus - Mad Max: Fury Road (2015)
The actress that played umbridge played her absolutely perfectly. And it speaks volumes when a character who appears in 2 movies is hated more than the main villain. Even myb7 year old niece hates umbridge more than Voldemort

In the first Star Wars movie in 1977, Grand Moff Tarkin was far more sinister than Darth Vader. After all, Tarkin ordered the destruction of Alderaan. We only heard of Vader's evil in the first movie through what we were told by Obi Wan, but through Tarkin's actions, we actually saw it.
In my opinion Elle Driver doesn't deserve to be in this list. She is badass, charismatic and probably the best fighter among the 5 killers on the Bride's list.
I look at the title of the video and a I think to myself “Oh, so Umbridge.”
Ditto.😅 I figured that b!tch would be on the list.😅
Peck definitely came to mind for me. What a smug tool.
Was who I instantly pictured.
Same lol
Was very disappointed that we didn't get to see DU get her comeuppance Deathly Hallows 2.
CJ Boddicker was one of the best villains EVER. Just looking at him, you think he's some nobody, but he's a deliciously vicious mastermind who isn't afraid of anything.
William Atherton is the master of detestable characters. I loved to hate him in Ghostbusters and the Die Hard movies.
Don't forget Real Genius
The reason why is that Voldermort is very classic cartoonish, "Look at me, I very spoopy and evil, mwahahaha", whereas EVERYONE has known an Umbridge in their lifetime.
good response, my dad gets very confused as to why Voldermort is not more hated than Umbridge, it's kinda funny at times.
Fucking word.
My grade 5 teacher, basically.
Clarence Boddicker is more someone you love to hate than actually hate, and someone you enjoy. It helps that the movie is a satire, and Kurtwood Smith's performance just adds so much to the character. He could have portrayed Clarence a million different ways, but he comes across as a guy just having fun being horrible. He's just a guy who really likes his job which is being evil. RoboCop is a treat in general. Miguel Ferrer treating Robo like his new badass toy, The Old Man telling a man whose robot just murdered someone "I'm very disappointed in you." Love it!
Can’t believe Ross from the MCU, the secretary from Independence Day, or a MAJORITY of the ant colony from Bug’s Life weren’t on here. Cypher had reasonable motives and Boddicker was actually a enjoyable villain
If you look at it from an objective perspective, the defence secretary from Independence Day was actually right most of the time.
Clarence Boddicker is one of my favorite movie villains of all time. Kurtwood Smith really made this man terrifying
Is Boddicker REALLY that more despicable than head of OCP? Yeah, he's a monster but Kurtwood Smith added a certain charm to him
It's a toss-up. Usually corporate villains seem worse because of the greed they represent and the wealth/power they wield, but Boddicker takes such relish in his evil that he arguably overshadows even Dick Jones in the villain/hate-sink stakes.
He's certainly more memorable than Jones. I often forget that Boddicker isn't the main villain.
Ever since that 70s show, every time I see something with Kurtwood Smith in it I expect him to threaten to put his foot up someone's @$$!
I think we all knew Dolores was going to be on the top right?
Yes😅
I was about to rage if she wasn't. My list would have been:
10 Dolores Umbridge
9 Dolores Umbridge
8 Dolores Umbridge
7 Dolores Umbridge
6 Dolores Umbridge
5 Dolores Umbridge
4 Dolores Umbridge
3 Dolores Umbridge
2 Dolores Umbridge
1 Dolores Umbridge
She is the reason why i hate that movie as much as i do.
5:19-Clarence Boddicker is still alive in Red Formen 😂😂😂
Umbridge being number one is just so great.
Two more suggestions: Dennis Nedry and Donald Generro in Jurassic Park.
But if we're treating all the dinosaurs across the entire franchise as the main villains, then I'd argue that the secondary human baddies in the last three Jurassic World films were increasingly more loathesome with each film, starting with Hoskins, moving on to the murderous Eli Mills (the first human villain in the franchise to intentionally kill another human, rather than recklessly cause their deaths), and finally the guy who started it all, Dodgson.
The bad people in the Jurassic movies are the true villains. Even though the carnivorous dinosaurs are a danger to the characters, they are just animals
@@calebbusing6171 Same could also then be said of the xenomorphs in Aliens.
True. They seem to only act from instinct
Mr. Potatohead - Toy Story
Randall Boggs - Monsters Inc.
Mrs. Barick - Lean On Me
Lord Beckett - Pirate of the Caribbean
Lord Beckett is a main villain in the Pirates of the Caribbean films
I’ll be honest about Robocop - I thought Miguel Ferrer’s character was the most despicable. Yes he created Robocop, but he did so by intentionally putting cops in harm’s way and showing zero compassion for anyone. He was the smarmy, stereotypical corporate “climb over the corpses of your colleagues” character. Unlike Boddicker, who’d gladly shoot you while facing you, Ferrer’s character would shake your hand and compliment you just before stabbing you in the back.
The only thing that I see wrong with this list is naming "the old man" as the main villain in ROBOCOP, Dick Jones played by Ronny Cox is the real main villain
The Old Man is the main villain across the three films, but in the first Robocop he comes across as seemingly benign and almost likeable.
Umbridge makes the rest who made the list likable. She's that one old neighbour who is convinced that her way is the only way. She's that one old lady who bothers shop managers and innocent bystanders over food ingredients that have discontinued over 100 years ago.
In short, the Karen of all karens
And she's 30 times worse in the books. Book Umbridge makes movie Umbridge look like a damn saint.
Umbridge is everything described in the Grinch song and more.
She is the embodiment of the term, Karen.
I know they're magic plates, but, the fact she keeps plates with kittens that mew is pretty messed up to me
How about Percy Wetmore played by Doug Hutchison in the Green Mile?.... Man, I hate that character.
100%. Utterly despicable. Would that make 'Wild Bill' Wharton the closest thing to a proper villain in the film?
How about Dathan from The Ten Commandments 1956
Samuel L Jackson in Django Unchained and Skull Island
Boddicker was streetwise. It was kill or be killed. Dick Jones is more of a bad guy, getting others to do his dirty work without a shred of remorse.
I was thinking Percy from the Green Mile, but realized he is at most tied with Wild Bill. Wild Bill is definitely the more evil of the two but Percy has so many more opportunities to show his nastiness.
I was thinking Percy would be on the list too. He deserved everything he got.
You've just explained why Percy fits the criteria. Wild Bill is the ostensible main villain/biggest monster of the two, but Percy is arguably the most loathesome, possibly because he is so petty and treated like a normal guy who's allowed to operate in a position of respectable authority, rather than locked behind bars.
Boris Johnson said the mayor from ‘Jaws’ was the true good guy - and Boris used him as a template for how he dealt with Covid when he was Prime Minister 🤯
Thank you for putting Dolores Umbridge on number 1.
Umbridge is definitely one of the worst
You better believe it.
Yet, Mayor Vaughn was still mayor in Jaws 2. Go figure.
That's why I always wondered whether he was supposed to be seen as a 'villain' or just a pathetic weak bureaucrat who screwed-up.
If Jaws was ever remade there's no doubt that he'd be eaten by the shark
Two words: Donald Trump.
@@DuncDis We're not there yet...Let's hope for the best (i.e. that history isn't repeated).
You also think that he would have changed his ways after the first movie but he was still the same
Number 1 also earned the rank of Number two worst Karen in movie history!
There was a worse one?!?
"When I'm done here, maybe you can uh...fit me in?"
Clarence J Boddicker
The secretary in that scene is Kurtwood Smith's wife.
Clarence honestly was pretty likeable for a villain you should have put bob inside
😂😂
Yosef Tarasov was weasely, he thought John Wick was a FN nobody. & boy did he screw with the wrong guy.
Yeah. Reek really stepped in it there. Ramsey Bolton never killed nobody with a fuckng pencil.
In the novel Jaws, Vaughn is under pressure from the mafia. And Denethor was a heroic figure for most of his life. He's a classic Shakespearian tragic hero, in that loss has driven him straight up mad.
I really miss that snob dude from Titanic in this list. Plus, if you hate those characters, somebody did a great job. Because that is called acting and character writing.
But who would be the 'main villain' in Titanic, if not Calodan Hockley? The iceberg?
@@GregOrCreg well, technically there are 7 kinds of conflicts, like men vs men, men vs gods or men vs nature which this should be. You don't always need a human villan. Sometimes you don't even need a token dumb*ss which like all of James Cameron movies have.
The best heals know how to get heat.
Cal Hockley was the villain in Titanic, the guy you may be thinking about was Lovejoy(can't remember his first name) who did all the dirty work for Hockley.
@@ritchietodd409 Lovejoy was awesome. Played by the late great David Warner. Unlike his master, he had a brain.
All i see Clarence J is the true main villan of Robocop I mean for a "side villan" he did a lot of damage to the Police and Robocop than the main one
I think the reasoning is that Clarence worked for Dick Jones. I agree that he was portrayed as the big bad guy, but he was an underling.
*I’m disappointed that Percy from “The Green Mile” isn’t on here.*
Percy basically was the main villian
1. Major Grant played by John Amos in Die Hard 2: Die Harder.
2. Commander Peter Krill played by Gary Busey in Under Siege.
3. Xenia Onnatop played by Famke Jansen in Goldeneye.
4. Mr. Joshua played by Gary Busey in Lethal Weapon.
5. Bellatrix Lestrange played by Helena Bonham Carter in Harry Potter franchise.
6. Stephen Warren played by Samuel L Jackson in Django Unchained.
2. No one in a Seagal movie can be more hateable than Seagal.
3. Xenia is more amusing and cartoonish than hateable
Major Grant was mostly likeable until his true colours were revealed. And even when he was revealed as a villain, he was still at least a fighter rather than a coward.
Krill was an idiot, but, once again, no coward, same as Busey's character in Lethal Weapon. And Xenia was also a strong-willed, tough character.
Most hateful side characters are either cowards/non-fighters or slimeballs.
You know what's ironic? When he was still alive, my dad looked very similar to that of Kurtwood Smith, especially when he co-starred as Clarence Boddicker in the 1st Robocop. And no, Kurtwood Smith is not my father. He just looked very similar, if not fully identical, to my real dad.
Damn Denathor was such an awful father to Faramir, even he deserved to be the real villain in the movies.
Actually, Denathor was just a tragic character. He was influenced by Sauron, and losing Boromir just tipped the scales. It was his grief that destroyed him. I never saw him as that bad. Also, in the book, Aragon and Denathor had the same amount of right to be the king. In fact, Denathor is the right king, as his family ruled that region for a long time. Aragon had no right to rule unless all of Denathor's family died. Aragon became king because of his charisma and role in saving Middle Earth. Also, Faramir gave up the role to Aragon, as Aragon seemed to be a better king. To me, I hated the mayor of Jaws and Jaws 2 so much especially because he got away with his vileness. That guy should have been out of the office, at least. The citizens seem to be morons for keeping that guy in the office, or he did a great cover-up.
Dr Frederick Chilton in Silence of the Lambs.
I hate to mitigate Hannibal Lector's crimes, seeing that a certain Presidential candidate is already doing that right now...but Chilton is genuinely more obnoxious than the main villain.
2:38 "His brother Bud, for example, is a ruthless sexist." HAHAHAHAHAHA! What!? Of all the ways you could describe Bud's character.
What about Lord Cutler Beckett from the Pirates of the Caribbean franchise (he was a ruthless tyrant who was no better than Davey Jones himself, and in a deleted scene from At World's End, it's implied that he condoned and took part in shipping slaves in the name of economics, which even Jack Sparrow admitted was one of the things he would never do, even if drunk).
Dolores Umbridge is a worthy choice for number one! And Imelda Staunton played her to perfection! "I WILL HAVE ORDER!!"
I think Chi-fu from Mulan should at least have gotten an honorable mention.
Im going to go further in defending cypher he was told here pick a pill with no idea how bleak and horrifying the real world was he wanted to go back into denial
Morpheus doesn’t exactly take his time picking candidates
Ivan Mercer from Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest and At World's End was a little weasel too, had no problem with the way Davy Jones killed him off.
Edward II in Braveheart. His father the king is a straight-up hardcore villain, but his foppish useless son is just a disgrace.
Also in Braveheart, Robert The Bruce's father.
Clancy Brown’s portrayal of a ruthless sadist is one of the best acting performances I had the joy of witnessing in my entire life.
Are the aliens really villains though? They're just creatures. I would argue that Burke actually IS the main villain.
@@arthurtaylor2593 my thoughts exactly.
38 years and Aliens still looks good.
I so strongly disagree with Mayor Larry Vaughn. He wasn't a villain motivated by greed; he was a man trying to do the right thing for his town and its inhabitants, not understanding the choices he had to make until it was too late (as shown by Murray Hamilton's excellent performance in Vaughn's last scene, in the hospital, where he's truly in shock at his realization).
He's not evil, nor a villain. Just a fundamentally honest, but humanly flawed character trying to do the right thing.
That’s true
I agree. He was a fool who buried his head in the sand, IMHO, but he wasn't evil. Just really misguided. I don't hate him as much as some of the others on this list (although I'm also inclined to defend Walter Peck to some degree, even if I enjoyed the Busters referring him as 'dickless').
For me, it’s the character of Ronny from X2 (2003). Also, where’s Ms. Hattie from Despicable Me?
Yeah, I prefer Vector over Miss Hattie. I wonder what became of her after she was last seen in the Despicable Me series
I KNEW umbridge would be number one. She makes that movie almost unwatchable she's so good at making you hate her.
Kurtwood Smith was so convincing as Clarence Boddicker, that I can't unsee him in any role he did after that, including Red Foreman in 'That 70s Show' and as attorney David Boies in 'The Dropout'
😭 I absolutely hate Denethor. He’s a horrible leader refusing to protect his own people. He treats Faramir horribly. Plus his hair is just disgusting all greasy 😂
And his table manners are so disgusting that even the Skeksis would be repulsed by them.
@@ameliajones9827 Oh my gosh don’t even began that whole other awful conversation 😖
True
When I saw Clarence Boddicker on the thumbnail, I thought the most hated character in Robocop 1 was Bob Morton.
When i was a kid back in the 90s after my brother and i seen Robocop we found Clarence absolutely hysterical.. we went to school in Bournemouth southern England repeating all his phrases "bitches leave " "just give me my fuckin telephone call" "i dont like cops an cops dont like me " etc etc at any opportunity.. before long most of the lads at school were doing it ... That actor will never know how loved he was by a school in England 😂
Ellen Abbot - Gone Girl - She aggravated the situation as she ruined the innocent protagonist and greatly supported the antagonist, only with her own interest.
I knew Deloris Umbridge would be on the list. Other people on my list are Dennis Nedry from Jurassic Park, Cocteau from Demolition Man and Darth Jar Jar, I mean Jar Jar Binks.
Umbridge is basically the living embodiment of this video title
"The true villain in Ghost busters is bureaucracy" I completely zoned out after that 😂
This line sums up the distinction between the 'Big Bad' and those slimy, secondary villains that we *truly* hate:
"You know, Burke, I don't know which species is worse. You don't see them fucking each other over for a goddamn percentage."
Billy Drago's performance as Frank Nitti in "The Untouchables" so happy when Kevin Costner threw him off that roof!
Dolores Umbridge 🤮🤮🤮
That woman reminded me of one of my fomar bio teacher,she was awful.
I just hope Imelda Staunton (who played Umbridge) didn’t receive death threats from die hard fans as if she IS the character in real life. I feel bad for actors who are best known for playing monsters, as I’d imagine people just see them as that character. 😢
@@georgeeastwood6930 I'm a long-time fan of Imelda Staunton going back to the 80s and 90s, and mostly know her for sympathetic roles, before and after Harry Potter, so I hate to think that there are people who only know her for HP, and who might be prejudiced against her simply because of how loathesome that one single character is.
@@GregOrCreg I’ve always wondered if something similar happened with Peter Cushing because of “Star Wars”, where he played that space Nazi who ordered the death & destruction of Leia’s home planet while she is imprisoned on the Death Star.
@@georgeeastwood6930 Hey, why isn't Grand Moff Tarkin on this list? LOL. Or is it because, strictly speaking, he is the main villain of Episode IV?
Though it didn’t make it on this list, I would argue that the worst villain in the Terminator movies is Cyberdyne Systems since they are responsible for creating SkyNet and the terminators in the first place.
True
Clarence Boddicker terrified me. He’s definitely one of the best villains in cinema. Kurtwood Smith’s performance was both surprising and outstanding.
Toht should’ve easily made the list. Ronald Lacey created a character so creepy and unsettling that you were sure he kept people in his basement to torture for fun.
Totally saw & called #1 from a mile away!
Who didn’t?
I hated the Warden more than Captain Hadley
@@daz5369 me too. He’s among my top 10 villians list.
Gotta love how when it comes to Kill Bill the narrator makes it sound like Budd is somehow the worst of the bunch because he's sexist, ignoring Gogo Yubari who is a Sadist, or O-Ren Ishi a literal Yakuza Boss.
I don't understand the recent bootlicking simpery for Walter Peck. He's an insecure, meddling Fed that would've turned a blind eye to the Ghostbusters if they were billionaires, so relax.
He also accused the Ghostbusters of "faking" hundreds of ghost sightings all over New York - and after "he" had blown up their reactor, hundreds more at the same time - without any proof for his claim or ever even mentioning any logical idea how exactly they are supposed to have done that. For reminders, even today there don´t really exists any technology able to do that.
Kraven from the first two Underworld movies.
Sorry, the Old Man was not the main villain of RoboCop. That would be Dick Jones.
This was definitely one for the books! It’s crazy that moviehive isn’t more popular since I find everything I want there.
0:44 I despised him for decades but he was just doing his job
I hated Umbridge, Bellatrix, and the Malfoys all more than Voldemort
A.K.A, top ten 'Jerks Are Worse Than Villains' characters.
The only thing missing in this video is Umbridge's comeuppance. That was so satisfying to watch.
I can't believe the evil teacher, Ms. Trunchbull from 1996's Matilda, didn't make this list or even an honorable mention.

Shou Tucker from Full Metal Alchemist should be on here too. He's not the primary Villain, but becomes a major side character that everyone hates.
The actress that played umbridge played her absolutely perfectly. And it speaks volumes when a character who appears in 2 movies is hated more than the main villain. Even myb7 year old niece hates umbridge more than Voldemort
I remember when I saw Deathly Hallows part 2, the audience cheered louder for Molly killing Bellatrix Lestrange than Harry killing Voldemort.
