Why is Irma Bunt actually so badass? She’s terrifying, competent, and outlasted her boss! She’s probably one of the only Bond Villains who actually completed her goal lol
@@nomack000 You don't need to make some cheap explanation or sympathetic backstory. Not everyone is bad for an understandable reason. In the origonal tale Maleficent was simply a witch that cursed the princess for petty reasons. There was no real need to change that. Honestly we need to return to the more deligntfully despicable vilalins that just love being evil. Even to this day those are the villains we most remember. I'm not saying a little backstory and depth is bad, but you can make villains deeper in ways besides sympathetic backstories.
If you give every villain a backstory, you give every audience member a subconscious permission to allow their tragedy to become a catalyst that excuses wicked behavior.
In the novel of Dark Knight Rises, there's a line. "The worst of the worst were sent here, except the Joker, who rumor had it, was locked away as Arkham's sole remaining inmate. Or perhaps he had escaped. Nobody was really sure."
This was going to be included as part of TDKR, and I think an early draft had Batman visit Arkham to speak with Joker, who was the only inmate left, to get his knowledge or opinion on the situation. This was obviously scrapped, but it was also an additional homage to the French Revolution as there was a crumbling French prison at the time that held a single inmate and was never stormed like the Bastille was.
Yeah, On Her Majesty's Secret Service gets a bad wrap. It's more grounded and more emotional - people weren't ready for that. And it has an amazing soundtrack. I don't think it's *the* best, but it's one of them.
I'm so happy to hear your praise for On Her Majesty's Secret Service. People like to crap on Lazenby, and sure, he's a little stiff (though a great screen presence). But the movie is funny, clever, weird, and devastating. (And sexist, but hey, it's Bond.) It's easily in my top five.
Don't listen to people who crap on HMSS and Lazenby. It's a great conclusion to the Bond-story. He manages to overcome his sexism - the objectification of women - manages to establish a truthful, deep emotional bond to a woman as equal and leaves the - actually very empty life - as secret agent behind him. And of course, the shadows from this former life destroy everything... It's in an incredible way simultaneously endlessly optimistic and uplifting as well as melancholic and devastating. A unique masterpiece!
Most of these are just villains who got away, not really villains you didn’t realize won. Getting away after their plan is either ruined or ending up on a world’s enemy watch list is not winning.
Have to disagree with the 12 Angry Men entry here. Had they found the son guilty, even though there was reasonable doubt, the justice system would have failed and the killer would have won, as the case would have been closed. As the case is still open the authorities still have an open murder investigation. While the killer is still on the loose, the hunt is still on and the investigators now have to look at other people besides the son. The killer might still go unpunished, but the heat has been turned up on them.
I am super happy to hear praise for George Lazenby and Timothy Dalton as Bond. I've always felt both actors' performances and movies were hugely underrated.
They walked so Daniel Craig could run. People came to expect the usual cliches out of Bond films by OHMSS and more cheeky Bond with Moore's long run. Critics were savage with Dalton for some reason. It was the 80's and gentleman spy heroes were passe.
From Russia with Love is probably the best. Bond has to match wits against an agent that has the initiative. Meanwhile, he has to actually do... you know... spy work. Stealing a decoder for the allies, escaping several traps along the way. While there's plenty of campy scenes in the movie, it's probably one of Sean Connery's best outings as Bond. But, I love watching The Man with the Golden Gun when I'm in the mood to watch a Bond film. Christopher Lee plays a great, over-the-top villain whose goals change to suit his own ends.
From Russia with Love is better than Goldfinger. Not that Goldfinger is bad at all, but it came to be the stereotype of what people expected out of a Bond movie. Eccentric villain, his over the top scheme, his main henchman with some quirk/gimmick, femme fatale, Bond's car with gadgets. Scenes like Bond just hanging out with the villain, playing a game with him. The big exception is that what would be the good girl that survives the movie dies very early...the girl who wanted to kill Goldfinger to avenge her sister's death. That part is almost subverting a trope before the trope became a trope.
@@scockery As a spy movie, FRWL is the best. As a spy-action movie, Goldfinger is better. As an emotional study, Her Majesty's Secret Service is the best. Well, that's my take on it 🙃
Yes, the Joker did, technically, win, though being locked in Arkham most of the time prevented him from fully enjoying it. Though Batman's death fake-out rectified this at the end of "The Dark Knight Rises", whether he personally witnessed the moment or not, it still makes the viewer wonder what he thought about it.

Because Christopher Nolan’s Batman had never intentionally and directly killed anyone before Harvey Dent. Did he probably cause a few deaths when showing off his gadgets (cough, indiscriminately blowing up cars in a parking lot where we can see CHILDREN IN AT LEAST ONE CAR, cough)? Absolutely. Did he watch Ra’s al Ghul fall to his death? Yes. He was able to justify those though, possibly by just mentally ignoring those casualties and believing that the ends justified the means.
@@tamakunminnip2117 I know right! Batman said that, right after he guaranteed the train will crash knowing a person is still onboard. Batman purposefully set the course for his death and said he won't stop it. The exact same idea in different situations sounds funnier. Imagine stabbing someone and saying "I won't kill you, but I won't perform first aid so you'll die from blood loss." Or imagine poisoning someone and then saying "I won't kill you, but I won't hand over the antidote so you'll die from organ failure."
@@SonGoku-tp8gb Oh, I won’t pretend that his actions (or lack thereof) are ACTUALLY justifiable. That’s just how HE justifies them in his own mind. He’s never exactly been the pinnacle of mental health and good coping mechanisms though.
What about the dude from Clockwork Orange? He’s tortured and experimented on for his crimes but then they reverse all that by the end of the movie and set him free
Batman didn't kill Dent. Gravity did. Batman said "I don't have to save you " in the first movie and that death didn't count so why shouldn't this one?
@@samdouglas9751well that's a dumb ass take. That's like saying villains like venom, Mobius and kraven from Sonyverse are straight up heroes now because men aren't allowed to be villains anymore, just good people damaged by women
@@samdouglas9751 Yea. Somehow we are halfway back in the 19th century with the mainstream-view on women: Back then, women were considered unable of responsible decision making and needing the "guidance" of men. Now, we make men again responsible for women's actions...
Just cause we don't see Brit again doesn't mean she survived. I was surprised Mallick did and he clearly still has that arm. Thought he would have had to have it amputated considering he had to saw it in half.
Dr Anton Phibes in both of his movies. Vesalius survived, was still surely ruined in both mind and spirit especially given that his son was still open and the "nurse" Vulnavia was at least incapacitated after being drenched in acid; though not shown in the film, that Plague might have come to pass rather than passover.
The Dark Knight Returns comic (the one that almost all modern batman media takes inspiration from) has the Joker win as well, by way of making Batman so mad he finally murders him Yup, that was a good comic
I'm hoping Valentine from 2014 Kingsman is in the video, cause that guy actually succeeded in ending the world. In the movie, the number of immediate casualties which would have resulted after a couple of minutes of Valentine's rage machine running would sent that world back to the stone ages. And the body count would only soar afterwards. In that world people working in daycares would have been rampaging several minutes. Pilots and bus drivers and truckers and cops would have decimated everything.
You talk a lot about Bond. Have you done any lists on Bond stuff? Massive Bond fan myself so would love to see some content. Favourite bond films....On Her Majesty Secret Service. Goldeneye - was perfect for reboot. Had a female M who stood up to Bonds sexism and old ways and also had content based around the end of the cold war and tensions were still high
honestly it pains me to see a beloved actor or actress pass away especially when making a movie or tv series and it's even harder to recast them to try and either look like the original or if all else fails scrap the script entirely and try for a new outcome hoping it would work.
Spiderman no way home: the real twist is that Reaver is actually little Ralphie from A Christmas Story, it was the constant lifetime of be bullied and attempting to stand up for himself that lead to little Ralphie becoming a villain..."You'll shoot your eye out kid!"

NGL, I miss Jules & his positive messages at the end of each of his vids-this other dudes tone is like the real-life personification of Anton Ego, no matter how much fake enthusiasm he musters via VO.
12 Angry Men is a brilliant movie but it always bothered me that the evidence against the accused was too overwhelming - the accused was heard arguing with his father earlier in the day and had a violent/abusive relationship with him (motive) - the accused had no alibi (he said he went to the cinema by himself but couldnt provide details of the movies he saw to the police) - he'd recently purchased the exact same type of knife used in the killing (and when asked to produce the knife said that he'd lost it) - One eye witness who said she saw the accused stabbing his father through her apartment window (Fonda question her eyesight) - A second eye witness who testified that he saw the accused running from the apartment immediately after the stabbing (Fonda basically argued that he was lying) I mean any jury with the above evidence would be crazy not to convict, the movie should have toned down the evidence somewhat
A large portion of that is circumstantial evidence. If they can't supply the knife him purchasing it is simply circumstantial. Anyone can purchase the knife. Pretty much all the lawyer has to do is get them to doubt the eye witness accounts. "Beyond a reasonable doubt" Little doubt is all it takes.
Swordfish. Not the greatest films admittedly, but is probably my favourite example of this. Everyone things Travolta and Berry are dead and the good guys won and bad guys lost. Nope, still alive and kicking having pulled off their plan to a T with almost no one the wiser. Even touched upon in Travolta's opening scene monologue.
as far as the james bond movie goes ..it was a drive by, anyone could have done that ,the women another goon didnt matter blowfeld was the one to blame as he was the boss
No specific villain but I would think numerous bad people in the world of Keanu Reeves' Chain Reaction caused a lot of death and destruction with the water based energy source that could be used as an explosive, once the knowledge how to make the "energy" was published for all to see.
Irma Bunt actually gets her punishment in the books. I can't remember witch one, but i do remember its one of the short stories. I have read the plots, but i haven't actually read the book, cause i haven't found one.
“Her plot to devastate her former lover” - did we watch the same movie? “Her plot to devastate the ex-friend who gained power because he betrayed her by drugging, physically assaulting & traumatising her”
On insurance claims and Eight Legged Freaks movie, it doesn't work that way. First off, the insurance wouldn't cover the entire cost of a mall. Secondly, no insurance would cover the mall after the fact, which is often required by law. So if something ever did happen like an entire mall going kablooey, it would never be restored. They would have to put a park there or something. There would be no replacement.
Stephan brings peace to maleficent's land at the cost of her wings and relationship with her. It may not be fair that he didnt give her the choice but he did stop all the attacks by becoming king. She breaks the peace with the curse. Not sure why he didnt give the wings back later but they did him dirty by making him go irreparably insane.
Have you brought up Palpatine in that horrid fanfic "Rise of Soywalker" yet? He went on and on about "Strong, Independent Type B" killing him in order for him to win, she does so, then goes on to take over the old Skywalker homestead and even their name. Truly, evil had won. Thank god it's non-cannon!
I think Blofeld killed her. He wanted anyone who could rat on him and his hideouts out of the way. If fits with his habit of disposing of people he no longer finds useful.
Sort of a technicality because the “win” took place in the graphic novel, Freddy vs. Jason vs. Ash, but Jason does end up killing Will and Lori (the survivors from Freddy vs. Jason). Although it took Lori and Will foolishly returning to Crystal Lake 5 years after the events of Freddy vs. Jason, Jason still ends up getting them in the end and Freddy manages to use Jason to resurrect himself. Which I would argue in the end would be a win for the villain in a horror movie since they managed to not only survive the victims’ attempts to kill them, but managed to eventually kill said victims as well.
You may have covered this before but while the NAZI's didn't actually win Indiana didn't beat them in fact he was captured and tied up before the Beloq and the NAZI's screwed up and opened the ark in Raiders of the Lost Ark
Maleficent wasn't the villain of the movie. Yes she is considered a Disney villain but in that particular movie she is the protagonist so not really the villain. She just wanted revenge, and if that makes you a villain the the protagonist of movies like Death Wish are villains.
A protagonist can be a villain. A protagonist is simply the main character, which often is the hero, but it doesn't have to be that way. So you can't really use it as an argument, that she isn't a villain.
His goal was to cause chaos and anarchy in Gotham by proving that their White Knight was corruptible the accomplished that even if it took eight years later and somebody else to reveal the truth for it to work it still worked.
@@tamakunminnip2117 No, his goal was to prove people in general are bad. The anarchy was not important, had the prisoners blown up the boat or vice versa that would have been a victory. It the difference between some and all. The chaos afterwards was some people behaving badly. The Jokers goal was to prove everyone would.
The whatculture crew didn't do all of their homework for this one. All of the villains of the dark knight trilogy die.its these deaths that give Bruce his darker edge which later leads to him and Clark fighting in BvS
Fun fact: the Underminer is based off Marvin Heemeyer, the selfish lunatic behind the Killdozer. He wasn't some poor folk hero, he was a domestic terrorist. The character exists to make fun of him and counter the fake story that has been pushed over the years.

Irma Bunt actually gets her punishment in the books. I can't remember witch one, but i do remember its one of the short stories. I have read the plots, but i haven't actually read the book, cause i haven't found one.
Amazing
Favorite Bond Film: Casino Royale
How do you know we didn t realize?
You do understand that batman won't kill the joker which is the only way to actually stop him .
My favorite 007 movie is "Casino Royale".
No thumbs up on this video for saying “On Her Majesty’s Secret Service” is possibly the best Bond film. Not by a long shot.
Anyone here know Beastars? Those wolves in the news that murdered a herbivore in an early chapter were never reported caught.
“Her plot to devastate her former lover” - did we watch the same movie? “Her plot to devastate the ex-friend who gained power because he betrayed her by drugging, physically assaulting & traumatising her”
eight lagged freaks sequel should have mosquitos that bite a big spider and turn big in a sworm of blood sucking freaks.
Have you watched the movie mosquito
On insurance claims and Eight Legged Freaks movie, it doesn't work that way. First off, the insurance wouldn't cover the entire cost of a mall. Secondly, no insurance would cover the mall after the fact, which is often required by law. So if something ever did happen like an entire mall going kablooey, it would never be restored. They would have to put a park there or something. There would be no replacement.
Nice I forgot about Bronson 😊
Stephan brings peace to maleficent's land at the cost of her wings and relationship with her. It may not be fair that he didnt give her the choice but he did stop all the attacks by becoming king.
She breaks the peace with the curse.
Not sure why he didnt give the wings back later but they did him dirty by making him go irreparably insane.
Have you brought up Palpatine in that horrid fanfic "Rise of Soywalker" yet? He went on and on about "Strong, Independent Type B" killing him in order for him to win, she does so, then goes on to take over the old Skywalker homestead and even their name. Truly, evil had won. Thank god it's non-cannon!
GoldenEye 🎉 the best 😊
In my head cannon, James bond kill she between movies, that why Boldfelt was making copies of himself in next movie
I think Blofeld killed her. He wanted anyone who could rat on him and his hideouts out of the way. If fits with his habit of disposing of people he no longer finds useful.
Sort of a technicality because the “win” took place in the graphic novel, Freddy vs. Jason vs. Ash, but Jason does end up killing Will and Lori (the survivors from Freddy vs. Jason). Although it took Lori and Will foolishly returning to Crystal Lake 5 years after the events of Freddy vs. Jason, Jason still ends up getting them in the end and Freddy manages to use Jason to resurrect himself. Which I would argue in the end would be a win for the villain in a horror movie since they managed to not only survive the victims’ attempts to kill them, but managed to eventually kill said victims as well.
Thanos in Infinity War.
Steven could have apologised for raping maleficent…
But he would had to admit the atrocity he committed…
You may have covered this before but while the NAZI's didn't actually win Indiana didn't beat them in fact he was captured and tied up before the Beloq and the NAZI's screwed up and opened the ark in Raiders of the Lost Ark
Dante fast x
They won by spelling realize with a “S”
starwars 7-9
Villian=disney
nothing more to say sadly they win
Her majesty's secret service is arguably the worst bond film
Maleficent wasn't the villain of the movie. Yes she is considered a Disney villain but in that particular movie she is the protagonist so not really the villain. She just wanted revenge, and if that makes you a villain the the protagonist of movies like Death Wish are villains.
She is the villain though, stop denying it and trying to justify her.
More of an anti-hero
A protagonist can be a villain. A protagonist is simply the main character, which often is the hero, but it doesn't have to be that way. So you can't really use it as an argument, that she isn't a villain.
The king was more or less the villain who didn't care about anyone but himself
I disagree that the Joker won anything. Sure he did cause a lot of chaos and downstream effects; but those weren't his goal.
His goal was to cause chaos and anarchy in Gotham by proving that their White Knight was corruptible the accomplished that even if it took eight years later and somebody else to reveal the truth for it to work it still worked.
@@tamakunminnip2117 No, his goal was to prove people in general are bad.
The anarchy was not important, had the prisoners blown up the boat or vice versa that would have been a victory.
It the difference between some and all. The chaos afterwards was some people behaving badly. The Jokers goal was to prove everyone would.
The whatculture crew didn't do all of their homework for this one. All of the villains of the dark knight trilogy die.its these deaths that give Bruce his darker edge which later leads to him and Clark fighting in BvS
Joker doesn't.
I don't think Scarecrow dies, either.
Fun fact: the Underminer is based off Marvin Heemeyer, the selfish lunatic behind the Killdozer. He wasn't some poor folk hero, he was a domestic terrorist. The character exists to make fun of him and counter the fake story that has been pushed over the years.
Zero likes in over a year, damn. Lotta people must agree
We won Joe
Holy crap look how bland and boring the cast of 12 angry men was
Laze by and Dalton good? Nobody agrees on the best but most agree their movies were some of the worst.
Timothy Dalton was the worst Bond imo.
So seriously, when are we getting Jussie Smollett as Jim Bond, or Rachel Zegler as Jane Bond?? Time to change it up a bit.
Really enjoy your videos, but please, all of you need to ease up on your use of "iconic ".
9 even more? Are you mentally challenged, Danny?
