His body language is good too, despite being a snake. He towers over other characters to induce fear, invades personal space to assert dominance, and maintains eye contact to show confidence. And that constant grin he has sells it all. He knows there's no one that can stop him and relishes in that.

Swear to god, they spent the entire budget on Jake’s design. I mean, he’s got those hellfire eyes, the gun for a rattle, even his scales on his lips were designed to look like a mustache (which is something that can happen in snakes)! Bill Nighy was a perfect role for Jake, I couldn’t imagine his voice any other way.

I think Jake was so offended by Rango's lies because Rango brought Jake into them. Rango used Jake's hard-earned reputation to pretend to be better than he really is
I heard somewhere that Jake is a personification of death which would explain why he has no origin and is a threat to everyone. He's cruel, but, like you said, he has a code and he hates liars. Which makes sense, because you can't lie to death. I love this theory, and it's fun to watch the movie from this angle.
@@jonathangoodwin5609 have you looked into a chicken's eye? no, because they would have pecked *your* eyes out. also, seagulls, if they were bigger they would be a threat because they would eat anything. they have eaten rabbits whole. birds are related to dinosaurs too
I don't think Jake destroyed Rango in the way your describing. In fact, if it weren't for Jake, Rango would still be nothing but a lying fraud and that is what Jake destroyed. He destroyed Rango's fraud personality in a way where it couldn't be repaired. In doing this, it helped Rango find who he really is and fully accept the role he took. You see this in the end when he comes back and faces Jake. You also see it in his eyes when he has Jake at gunpoint, where he's no longer Rango the fraud, but Rango the legend.
Exactly. In that moment when Rango had Jake at gunpoint near the end, that was the exact second when Jake realized that the fraud lizard he met earlier was NOT the same lizard staring him down now in that scene. Jake has no respect for liars who tell stories to hype themselves up, but he _does_ genuinely praise and respect those who have the guts to earn a mythical status. In those scenes, Jake basically created a legend equal to himself.
I don’t feel like his motivation is weak, it’s strong enough to get him to the plot and having him drive it forward He’s a mercenary that got hired, lives as a living legend and got betrayed. At the end, he spares Rango because he’s got some honour despite being a killer for hire. Plus the whole brother thing is more playing along than anything, trying to see how far the bluff would go, to hurt even more when revealing the truth
It isn't what he does so much as the way he does it. Jake is shown to be vicious and loves toying with his prey: instead of simply making Rango leave he first absolutely destroys Rango's reputation in front of the entire town (thereby destroying their hope in their protector) and gloats all the while. It isn't enough for Jake just exposing Rango, he has to make Rango feel absolutely humiliated and alone - and after Rango's gone, Jake doesn't show even the slightest bit of concern at the townsfolk's dismay. While you can argue that it's better to hear a harsh truth than a comforting lie, the way Jake breaks it to the town is absolutely not the way a hero would do it. Rewatch that scene and tell me you don't feel the sheer sadism oozing from every one of Jake's words.
@@Stolanis To be fair, Jake also has the right to get at Rango for that. Think about it; Jake has legitimately earned his legendary reputation. He knows that he himself is no hero, the point is that he earned the terror of the wild west with blood and sweat. Yet here comes this lizard who pulls Jake along into his lies to make himself look better than he was. Jake's rep was hard-earned; Rango just rode its coattails for fame. Which is why Jake comes to respect Rango at the end of the movie. When Rango has Jake at gunpoint after the fake hawk ploy, Jake just assumes that Rango is back at lying and cheating... only to be completely caught-off guard when he senses that Rango isn't bluffing or lying; he indeed WOULD have shot Jake dead without a second's thought if Jake made the wrong move or if the mayor hadn't intervened. Jake wasn't just shocked that Rango was going to kill him, he was shocked because that was the moment when Jake knew that Rango was no longer pretending to be a badass lawman, he legitimately _became_ a badass lawman just as Jake legitimately became a terrifying criminal. Jake no longer had any right to belittle or mock Rango, because at that point, Rango had earned his status fair and square just as Jake did. Jake is a murderous beast, but even he has enough honor and awareness to acknowledge when someone has fought their way to true legendary heights equal to himself.
Too be fair, he probably wouldnt have gone as hard as he did if Rango's lies involved Jake. Rangoon lied and used Jake's hard earned reputation to boost his own for nothing. Disrespect for disrespect.
Rattlesnake Jake was based on Angel Eyes (Sentenza) from The Good, the Bad and the Ugly (1966, the last film in Sergio Leone's Dollars Trilogy), played by the late Lee Van Cleef, as they have similar personalities, traits, dialects, black hat, antagonistic relationship with the hero, and (most importantly) their mustache. However, unlike Angel Eyes, Rattlesnake Jake had a much more on the honorable side underneath his heinous acts, and upon being betrayed by the Mayor, he lets Rango free while setting his sights on the Mayor, intent on killing him as revenge for his betrayal.
I always thought it'd be funny to see Jake trying to threaten me then just grab him and destroy him, but then I found out... Rango's around 5'4, so imagine how scary Jake would be IRL
There are normal-sized humans in the movie, all of which tower over Rango and the other characters. So yeah it would be pretty funny to have Jake try and threaten you. With that in mind, how much damage do you think his gattling gun tail would do to a person?
@@Bagelgeuse Probably a good bit, even if the bullets are small, I'd imagine that having several bits of metal lodged inside you forcefully isn't good for your health
He didn't spare Rango because he recognized a real one. He recognized Rango had palmed the bullet the mayor would have otherwise used to kill him (Jake). He appreciated how he saved his life.
@@na5567 I agree! I also think that he saw Rango was not the same person he was before, whereas before Rango couldn't fire a shot but now he was 100% certain that he had it in him to live up to it. Thus 'i tip my hat to you'.
@@TheSylvirrspot on" the turning point is when Rango at gunpoint said "it only takes one bullet" Jake replied "you ain't got the nerve" Rango look and said "try me" Jake's eyes changed as he stated the new confidence in Rango.
I thought the way the slowly introduced Jake and then have him be revealed was just *perfect.* He was not only an actual threat, but he definitely lived up to those expectations I had of him when I first watched this movie. When he came on screen, I actually tensed up in fear. He held that demeanor the entire time he was on screen. The voice actor as well did just wonderful with him, he sounded the way I’d imagine a villain in the west. He *knew* he was dangerous, so he had that ego high and mighty. But he was never above respecting those to deserved it, hence the scene with Rango after taking the mayor down. Though Rango at first was seen to Jake as a joke, he earned his respect, giving us the famous quote. “I tip my hat. One legend to another.” And not to even mention his design creativity they took with him being a rattlesnake. I personally love the rattle gun, that I was *shocked* to see as a child, and it still amazes me now as a 22 year old woman. His eyes of course aren’t accurate to a snake’s eyes, but I love the hellfire colors either way, it makes him definitely stand out. Also his body language is very accurate of a rattlesnake, the way he moves, his head up and coiled stance, his tongue flickers at random, he overall is a great villain. My only downside with him is that I wish he had much more screen time & I would have loved to known maybe a backstory of where he started from, but I know not every villain is like that. Besides also it can be taken in a way that he’s a predatory animal, he eats and hunts most of the folk in Dirt in the real world. I’d personally give him a 9/10 rating. Also not to mention.. he’s quite *fine* 💗
jake is such an interesting character the fact that they used bill nighy playing him live action and the faces that he makes and the emotion in his character is amazing i wouldn't have it any other way he is my favorite villian of all time and my second favorite actor played this guy as well as johnny depp being my favorite actor and he was amazing a mercanary with a code of honor and was amazing
You forgot to mention that he's the embodiment of death and he takes whoever he kills to hell. He also has the HARDEST quote when someone tells him to "Go to Hell" he replies with "Where do you think I came from?"
This channel should have more viewers. I just found you from your breaking bad tier list and it's really refreshing to see a fast paced video not being obnoxious.
Rattlesnake Jake is a badass that takes shit from no one. Probably one of my favorite characters in the film. The major was dead as soon as he pointed that gun at them.
I think Jake is more of a magnificent bastard trope than a true villain. He has the code of conduct but he has the evil tropes as well. By far Rango is one of my favourite films and Rattlesnake Jake being one of my favourite villains ever.
thanks for reviewing rattlesnake jake. he's a great villain. can you please review obake from big hero 6 the series, ratigan from the great mouse detective, and glados from portal
For all the other good points the other commenters made about this amazing character -- which I agree with -- the thing that I think needs mentioning is that you almost never see him fully on-screen. He's just too big. He fills the world when he's there -- oppressive, overwhelming, inescapable.
Jake is a relic from a bygone era, or perhaps he developed his persona as a defense mechanism. Anyone ever wonder why he never used his machine gun against the hawk? Besides, real gunslingers never used anything but pistols for gunfights. But, he winds up as an anachronism because most, if not all, of the town's residents are on his dinner list. He's already at the top of the local food chain. One more thing... Considering the physical size difference, shooting him with those little guns will only make Jake angry. Maybe he gave Rango props for standing in his face with an ineffective weapon, for raw chutzpah.
At that angle, the bullet would have gone into his brain. Jake's big compared to the gun, but not big enough to survive a shot in the head at that close of a range
Those are pretty simple to explain. Jake is scared of the hawk since the hawk is the natural predator of the snake. As you said, jake is at the top of the food chain, except for when the hawk is there. With the hawk, jake has to live with a INSTINCTUAL fear of his natural predator. Jusk like a man will be scared of a wolf even with a gun in hand, the same is here. Fear, thats why jake never used the gun. Also the "it will only anger him" is plainly not true, it would deal a good chunk of demage especialy in the head. It does not matter he is big, his body is that of a snake, and a bullet even that small will kill if aimed at the right place.
I say he's more of an anti-hero than a villain. My favorite seen was him giving respect to Ringo regarding the "one bullet". That's a bro talk right there.
You forgot to mention Jake isn't exactly a villain - he's an anti-villain. Like you said, he's not evil because he's evil, he has morals and standards, while also being evil- but because of his own morals he thinks what he's doing is right.
In that scene, Rango says “As long as that sign is there, you have something to hope for.” Then Jake shoots the sign. Kinda sums up what Jake did to Rango, but the sign never fell either.
Can I really count this chap as a villain if he’s redeemed? Doesn’t matter really because his confidence and ye olde honour makes him more likeable then most villains.
2:16 I think what you meant to say are rattlesnakes are scary enough by themselves when they have a mini gun attached to their tail made out of revolver cylinders that adds like times 10
That scene at the end after Rango broke the water vault and everything washed back out into the street, and Rattlesnake Jake was gearing up to go again, but then the sun reflecting off the single bullet into Jake's eye is what stopped him and make him realize that Rango was everything he pretended to be earlier in the film. "I tip my hat to you... One legend to another."
I'd like to point out the size comparison of the guns to the creatures, a diamond back only grows to roughly 4-6 feet long wich would suggest that at maz the caliber bullet his Gatling gun would be chambered in would be at max a .22 and for Rango the itty bitty lizard welding a revolver would be a all but an action figure gun. Altho at the ending scene a shell casing of colt .45 ACP wich would be roughly the size of rango's head. Other than that great movie and a fantastic villain especially for a snake enthusiast myself, he's pretty badass Also I do like the detail they put into the snake, as far as the keeled scales, hooked teeth, and lack of heat pits
So glad Jake won this poll, this movie didn't get enough credit. The details are spot and and the plot was actually good. The eyes on Jake are so PIERCING just like his fangs lol
This snake is such a cool villain. He’s a perfect representation of just how brutal the Wild West could truly be. What really puts him over the top for me is how honorable he is. He doesn’t kill Rango cause just having him leave in shame in enough and he respects Rango enough to leave himself
Jake is one of the most kick ass villians I've ever seen I think his motives is he just KNOWS that he's an apex deadly predator And makes it his whole personality
He probably gets another animal to do it. He goes to a small animal and says "Hey, do you want me to bite you?" The animal of course will say "No". Then Jake would say "What? I can't hear you. Reload my gun for "no", do anything else for "yes".
I like how most think his tails a gattling gun but it's actually the drums from revolvers put on top of each other in size order which makes him more menacing in my opinion as it reminds me of the old western vibes of gunslingers with duel revolvers but instead its just lots of drums as a rattle which turn simultaneously to recreate the sound of a revolver reloading
For any Star Wars fans in the comments, help me settle a debate between me and my brother. Who wins in a fight, Rattlesnake Jake or Cad Bane? To be clear, this is a 1v1, so Cad can’t be pulling any Rango style plays.
Jake is just perfect. The tortoise being a real estate villain the whole time, despite being smart, just doesn’t do it for me. When the tortoise realizes Rango is onto him and calls Jake in to deal with him, you realize that Jake isn’t screwing around while the mayor tortoise and his henchmen kind of were.
He says one of if not my favorite quote of cinema and it is "I will shoot you so many times you'll be leaking lead." Or at least that is how I remember it
Check out my review of Bowser to see if I gave him a higher score than Jake. Who do you think is better?

Jake had more character development in 7 minutes than Rey had in 3 movies.
The most threatening line in the movie:
"I'M GONNA BLOW SO MANY HOLES IN YOU, YOUR GUTS WILL BE LEAKIN' LEAD!!"
-Rattlesnake Jake
I say he's more of an anti-hero than a villain. My favorite seen was him giving respect to Ringo regarding the "one bullet". That's a bro talk right there.
Ah yes, Rattlejake snake
Next one I want: Ivar The Boneless
You forgot to mention Jake isn't exactly a villain - he's an anti-villain. Like you said, he's not evil because he's evil, he has morals and standards, while also being evil- but because of his own morals he thinks what he's doing is right.
0:50 umm rattlejake snake
Lol
Lmao
In that scene, Rango says “As long as that sign is there, you have something to hope for.” Then Jake shoots the sign.
Kinda sums up what Jake did to Rango, but the sign never fell either.
Honestly rattlesnake jake is a 10/10 character imo.
Can you do
Johan liebert from monster
Shogo makashima from psycho pass
Griffith from beserk
Is no one talking about the turtle at the end who just got taken by him we never know what actually happens which is kind of terrifying
Can I really count this chap as a villain if he’s redeemed? Doesn’t matter really because his confidence and ye olde honour makes him more likeable then most villains.
2:16 I think what you meant to say are rattlesnakes are scary enough by themselves when they have a mini gun attached to their tail made out of revolver cylinders that adds like times 10
Do one on Omni Man from Invincible he just such a cool character and has good motives
Okay
I've never seen this movie and yet this really looks so good!
i absolutely loved this character
he's just so damn menacing and badass like fr
3:37 notice that the black strips on his mouth are supposed to represent a mustache that’s a nice detail
i love jakes voice and the way e articulates his word..... hellooooo burathaaaa lmfao
That scene at the end after Rango broke the water vault and everything washed back out into the street, and Rattlesnake Jake was gearing up to go again, but then the sun reflecting off the single bullet into Jake's eye is what stopped him and make him realize that Rango was everything he pretended to be earlier in the film.
"I tip my hat to you... One legend to another."
Make a Villain review of the King Candy from Wreck it Ralph.
I love how he has that thin smudge line of black on his upper lip that makes him seem like he has a mustache
I'd like to point out the size comparison of the guns to the creatures, a diamond back only grows to roughly 4-6 feet long wich would suggest that at maz the caliber bullet his Gatling gun would be chambered in would be at max a .22 and for Rango the itty bitty lizard welding a revolver would be a all but an action figure gun. Altho at the ending scene a shell casing of colt .45 ACP wich would be roughly the size of rango's head. Other than that great movie and a fantastic villain especially for a snake enthusiast myself, he's pretty badass
Also I do like the detail they put into the snake, as far as the keeled scales, hooked teeth, and lack of heat pits
So glad Jake won this poll, this movie didn't get enough credit. The details are spot and and the plot was actually good. The eyes on Jake are so PIERCING just like his fangs lol
i thought it would have been more important how the other characters in the film characterize him as the grim reaper, and how he owns it.
The part where hes shooting the bats and opens his mouth while firing, kinda looks like a venus flytrap
I wonder how he recharged the machinegun if the bullets are in the straps locked in the main body
This snake is such a cool villain. He’s a perfect representation of just how brutal the Wild West could truly be. What really puts him over the top for me is how honorable he is. He doesn’t kill Rango cause just having him leave in shame in enough and he respects Rango enough to leave himself
Anton Chigurh would be interesting.
I love how In the beginning he said rattle Jake snake
"Look into my eyes girl, i wanna watch you die" -Rattlesnake Jake, noted not-evil villian according to this video
Till this day, that movie still looks good.
after rango escaped jake gains respect for him. im sure he still holds a grudge
“Todd is not a scary name”
“You have NOT seen Breaking Bad”
Honestly he was the only thing of the ENTIRE moive I remembered
Completely understandable

0:50 was that "rattlejake snake" on purpose or just a legendary slip up?
“I’m gonna blow so many holes in you, your guts will be leakin lead!” - RS Jake, 2011
I think your forgetting that the Mayor is the actual villain
Jake is one of the most kick ass villians I've ever seen
I think his motives is he just KNOWS that he's an apex deadly predator
And makes it his whole personality
This movie is so underrated. It’s so good!
i can never unsee the mustache ingraved into his skin
i never saw it before this video despite watching the movie more then 5 times
its that good
"I tip my hat to you. One legend to another." - Rattlesnake Jake shows his respect to Rango
As soon as the origins sign goes away he says rattlejake snake lol
Totally on purpose
0:52 one-take jake right here
-GO TO HELL
-where do you think i come from
best line in the film
I keep asking myself how does reload his gun
He probably gets another animal to do it. He goes to a small animal and says "Hey, do you want me to bite you?" The animal of course will say "No". Then Jake would say "What? I can't hear you. Reload my gun for "no", do anything else for "yes".
I always call him Jake the Rattlesnake Roberts!
You have a brain of many wrinkles
how does he reload?
I like how most think his tails a gattling gun but it's actually the drums from revolvers put on top of each other in size order which makes him more menacing in my opinion as it reminds me of the old western vibes of gunslingers with duel revolvers but instead its just lots of drums as a rattle which turn simultaneously to recreate the sound of a revolver reloading
The only evil thing he does is strangle Beans, but that was for a job. He spared Rango’s life in the beginning cause he doesn’t kill for no reason.
0:53 “so rattlejake snake” 💀💀💀
His eyes remind me of The Eye Of Sauron from lord of the rings
Fun fact Jake is based on Lee VanCleef aka Angel Eyes
For any Star Wars fans in the comments, help me settle a debate between me and my brother. Who wins in a fight, Rattlesnake Jake or Cad Bane? To be clear, this is a 1v1, so Cad can’t be pulling any Rango style plays.
Also don't forget if Rango didnt get back in time he wouldve squeezed the life out of Beans.
He wouldn't. They still needed her alive to sign the documents.
@@AndreiPopescu he might have
my god the amber herd thing was a year ago?
How does he reload his gun though?
Rattlesnake Jake: Noone will believe you even exist
Also him: *terrifyingly drags*
0:53 “Rattlejake Snake”
Jake is just perfect. The tortoise being a real estate villain the whole time, despite being smart, just doesn’t do it for me. When the tortoise realizes Rango is onto him and calls Jake in to deal with him, you realize that Jake isn’t screwing around while the mayor tortoise and his henchmen kind of were.
It would be cool to see Jake get a movie of his own, and midway through the showdown with Rango happens.
do one for all from mha
at 0:53 he said RattleJake Snake and it really messed me up on what his name was for a while
He says one of if not my favorite quote of cinema and it is
"I will shoot you so many times you'll be leaking lead."
Or at least that is how I remember it
