    I’ve enjoyed reading a lot of different takes from all of you regarding placements! I definitely forgot a couple things about a few characters and I’ll be making some changes whenever I update this list. You’ve all also made some pretty good points about others that have made me rethink some of my placements. I knew going into this that a lot of you would have differing opinions regarding certain characters so I’m happy to hear others perspectives. We all benefit from a wider discussion about these things rather than just my view point, so thank you to everyone who’s offered their own insights.
    I know creating this video organically rather than going off a script caused it to suffer in certain aspects (like me forgetting details about a few characters) but if anything your comments have encouraged me to keep the format the same and learn from this initial experience to improve the way I approach this type of video next time around. Overall, for my first time making a video in this way, I’m happy with it, and the majority of you seem to be as well, but your feedback is important to me and I’ll be tackling this in a similar yet improved way next time around. Thank you as always for watching everyone, and I really appreciate all the feedback you’ve given me so far!

      The Vile Eye, I think you should make an analyzing evil episode of Light Yagami from the Death Note saga from the manga and anime series because I would think he'd be an interesting villain to cover for his character, personality, how he became what he is, and the way his motivations changed in his series from the manga and anime during the beginning. I hope maybe one day you will do a video on him, I think it would be awesome!

      Great vid! Love your stuff. I do think you classified Alex wrongly. He’s def S tier. And I’ll tell you why. He ENJOYS torturing people, inflicting terror and toying with people using violence. Recall his fantasizing about torturing Jesus. In fact, I think the movie’s story requires Alex to be a kind of S tier evil person. His numbers of victims might be low; but he does the evil he does, not because he’s hired to do it, or society made him do it, or because he has a distorted view of justice - he does it because he really wants to do it and he has no moral qualms about doing so. Everyone else has a kind of excuse, but I think what makes A Clockwork Orange so impactful and dramatically compelling is that Alex has no believable excuse. We know it’s total BS when Alex tries to give excuses; we know it’s him trying to make people empathetic to him so they don’t punish him as harshly as they would otherwise. S tier par excellence!

      I thoroughly enjoyed the video. One thing I would add that would make it even better is if you name the movie that each person has been in as well. Some people may not be aware of all the movies all the characters are in and it's nice to place the face with a movie. Good video though. Thank you.

    The Vile Eye forgot to rank himself, for covering so much evil and so many villains, giving them more exposure and spotlight than they deserve. His actions have informed and inspired others who would do evil. For these reasons, I think we can comfortably put The Vile Eye into S tier.

Mind you, the tier list had Patrick Bateman close to the top of A tier, whom is truly a maniac and also very evil in his murderous ways, except, his issue is that he can’t control his lust for blood, where as the jokers list for destruction is completely controlled, dialed in, and calculated. Like you said, it’s kind of hard to ruin the “established order” of Gotham, because there already was no real order, but creating plans to pin people completely against each other ( the end of the movie ), slowly killing a man in Harvey Dent by turning his entire world upside down through death and manipulation, and continuously proving that he has no care for human life, with his body count of 23, all of which being completely brutal.

      @TotalTech2. 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      @@turdeyeblind You are right. There are a few other ones I would move around slightly. Michael Corleone Should probably be B list because of Fredo
      He is worse than the Joker but not nearly as bad as *THE* *JOKER*
      Annie Wilkes should be higher (he said so himself) probably A tier
      And probably lower for Commodeus. As while he is a bad guy. A really bad guy he isn't as bad as Patrick Batemen. He is too sympathetic
      Commodesus should probably be around Davy Jones as they are both Birds of a feather
      Azula on the other hand deserves C tier. She isn't nearly as vile as Kurtz
      Here's the thing about Azula. She is vicious without a doubt but in some ways she was abused by her father just as much as Zuko just psychological instead of physically
      Something we forget about Azula is at the end of the day she is a 14 year old girl who was conditioned by her country and father to be a killing machine. And unlike Zuko who had his mother and Iroh the only person Azula really had was Fire Lord Ozai.
      Let that sink in
      Unlike say Walter she never had the chance at a normal life.
      She is a 14 year old girl who had no one except child burning, genocidal Ozai
      That's it
      While Zuko had his mother and Iroh Azula really couldn't have turned out any other way than she did
      Also remember the nations are at war even if she is on the wrong side Azula is still technically a solder (just a high ranking one).
      Azula's actions are made as both a soldier and a possible ruler and unlike Kurtz she was born into Fire Nation service.
      She couldn't just walk away. Kurtz on the other hand is a full grown man who CHOOSE to be a soldier
      Because of this Kurtz is FAR worse than Azula
      And unlike Tony she never really got to see her way of life is wrong as all she has ever been exposed to growing up is the Fire Nation and war.
      That's it.
      Nothing else
      Azula is like Asami 22:58 but younger and in a kids show. And unlike Asami she is far less sadistic at least from what we get to see.
      Murderous yes but I have a hard time seeing Azula commit some of Asami's acts. (Though maybe I am wrong).
      And she does have some soft spots.
      She clearly cares about her friends as she went insane when they left her.
      She cares about her mother as she cries when her mother (hallucination) tells her she loves her.
      And it's very strongly hinted that she cares about Zuko in a twisted way.
      That's why she lied to her father and said Zuko struck the final blow against Aang not her.
      She really had no logical reason to do this and she offers us some weird excuse but in reality she wanted her big brother back.
      And she even said she was WORRIED about him when he started to turn "traitor" for team Avatar
      If she where truly evil evil there would have been no talk. Zuko is a threat to her place as Fire Lord. She would murdered him in season 2 and laughed about it.
      But she didn't
      She did absolutely EVERYTHING in her power to "turn" Zuko good again. Despite the fact that she knew that he had the potential to be a massive threat in the future
      In fact. I would take it a step further. The reason Azula is constantly roasting Zuko (no pun intended) is because deep down she cares about him and in her mind if anyone knew that she actually had feelings. They wouldn't see her as this all powerful bad ass and her father would also lose respect for her which like her brother she REALLY want's to please him.
      The writers could have made her Zukos Older sister which would put her around 18 or 19 by the shows end which would make her an adult.
      But they didn't. They wanted to make it clear she was the younger sibling because Azula is a victim.
      Azula has some VERY deep seeded emotional issues as seen in the episode ember island But again she isn't worse than Kurtz. It really isn't even close
      However Azula does admit that even she sees herself as a monster
      Both her and Alex and Tetsuo really seem to be birds of a feather.
      They are all children who are products of their environment and have been shaped by their parents (or lack there of) into what they are.
      In the books she even shows signs of change once she is outside of daddy's influence
      With all that being said she is still pretty sadistic, and manipulative and has probably killed a lot of people off camera.
      She deserves maybe top spot of C tier.
      She is bad but redeemable in my opinion

      He's really not even a villain by my estimation. An antagonist for the story sure, but a villain I think is a bridge too far. (SPOILERS FOR MOVIE BELOW)
      While at the outset it's certainly possible he is a villain, information you gain during the movie shows that his whole plan was never meant to intentionally cause harm to anyone. The VX gas rockets are a bluff that he will never allow to hit their target, he only wants the 100 million to distribute to the men working the plan with him and the families of the men who died under his command, and he's genuinely pissed when he has to kill Commander Anderson's incursion team who pop up in the shower room. During the opening sequence, he's shocked and appalled they lost someone accidentally during the VX gas heist, and in the graveyard we see him asking for forgiveness to his dead wife, leaving his MOH on her tombstone, and flat out saying he's tried everything.
      When he's speaking with the FBI director Wolmack who asks about the Red Sea Trading company, he openly admits its a slush fund for the US government for illegal arms sales, meaning the money he's asking for isn't coming out of the taxpayer budget, but money the US has gained illegally through sales it's not even supposed to be doing, a point punctuated by the other general stating "Jesus Frank this is classified information" along with an absolutely shocked look on Wolmack's face.
      When the plan begins to fall apart, he fully admits the bluff, and tells the men to flee under cover of VX rockets and hostages and he will face the consequences alone.
      I mean really at every single turn the guy is trying to either minimize death and harm and the whole purpose of the plan is the financial security of those who gave the ultimate sacrifice for their country.
      I'm sure some may be able to crowbar him into the villain box if they want to, likely pointing out the inherent dangers of the plan, refusal to continue going through proper channels, etc. I just can't in good conscience put the guy in the villain category.

    I wrote an essay on Griffith for English class and why I think he is the perfect villain. My point being that although there are many villains who you can admit are bad people, but have a sense of charm to them that makes them likeable to the audience, or sympathize a little with, Griffith is different in the fact that he is so charming and charismatic to everyone around him that it makes the reader who knows how disgusting and selfish he is hate him all the more, knowing that other people in the story think he's a stand up guy. And I also made a point of how genius Miura was in flipping the usual villain backstory trope on its head, where instead of using a backstory to make the villain the object of sympathy, he uses a massive backstory to give the reader a compelling reason to hate the villain, and that a villain that the audience truly hates as if they were a real person is way more compelling than a villain that the audience finds admiration in.

All criteria worthy of lowering his position. Only thing you cant say for him is that he had a tragic upbringing

      Maul as well.
      He was traded off as a child as part of a power-brokering deal to the most evil being in the Galaxy. Even still, he has shown *some* redeaming qualities, such as care for his brother, and later on often finds himself at odds with arguably more evil Characters. Dooku and Anakin were, at least, full fledged adults by the time they were turned to the Dark Side. I'd put both Dooku and Maul in high B-tier.

      Depends. If you look at his internal monologue in the novelization, it's revealed that he was, even as a jedi, at the very least, a sociopath, if not an outright psychopath. His outward demeanor of a upstanding man with a deep conviction of personal justice, disillusioned with the corruption of the Republic was, for the most part, a facade. He did not particularly care for anything or anyone but his own view of how the world should be.
      He DID have his best intentions for the galaxy, but said best intentions involved setting up a galactic authoritarian dictatorship and turning the Jedi survivors into a Sith army under his and Palpatines control.
      Technically, he got his wish. Though he didn't live long enough to see it.

    I've just got to say that Hannibal Lector deserves placement near the top of S tier. He is a personification of pride carried to such lunatic extremes that his greatest pleasure in life is demonstrating his superiority by killing and eating human beings, a pleasure closely followed by the domination and manipulation of souls he considers to be lesser than his own.
    One might argue that Hannibal's childhood trauma, the quality of his charisma or his profound connection to beauty in some way mitigate his atrocities but they do not. Lectors perfect sense of aesthetics and effortless talent for congeniality reveal that he was not impaired by the horrible things that happened to him and his family during the war. He does not lack empathy or the capacity to see the morally right course of action. Instead he understands the suffering that he inflicts far more acutely than most normal people could and he revels in it. He is not trapped by circumstance in any way as he is obsessed with creating circumstance for himself and for others and he is a master at it.
    Mads Mikkelsen said that while portraying the character he aimed his performance at portraying the Biblical Satan and he nailed it. In the novels Hannibal thinks of himself as being like God, and believes his crimes are in kind to the whims of God Himself. There are no worse sorts of people than Hannibal Lector. The only way a person could rate as more evil then him, if such a thing is even possible, would be to take into account the sheer quantity of their respective crimes. For the quality of the crimes and the motivations behind them this character is as pure a strain of wickedness as there ever was.

      That being said, Bateman as much of a monster that he is, shows some small compassion a few times in the book, like towards Jean. He also felt guilt towards him aborting a few kids and told a model to get out because he felt he couldn't help himself hurting her, so he has some very, very small empathy and understanding that what he is doing is wrong.

      I despise any halfway sympathetic interpretation of Light's character. - He immediately declares his intention to kill innocent people, it's in the very first episode. Only Thanos and Emperor Palpatine could've possibly killed more people than Light did, and I think that's debatable in Palpatine's case because it's not clear whether executions are carried out for their own sake. The Emperor's goal is control, Light's actual goal is to fill pages with the names of his dead.

      Voldemort would definitely be S-tier, comming quite close to Emperor Palpetine. He was massacring everyone who wasn’t half- or puur blooded, so basically genocide. The Dark Lord’s plan was to conquer the magical world and rule it with unmatched cruelty. He murdered entire families, even the babies. He attacked a highschool with an entire army. This army contained giants, huge spiders and werewolves. There is even a scene were you can see a werewolve feeding on a 17 year-old girl. He even killed the person he trusted and respected the most, Severus Snape, for a better wand even though he was already the most powerful wizard. Worst part is that he didnt even end his friend quick and painless, no he ordered his snake to end him which led to a slow and very painful death. Killed a unicorn which is the representation of pure good and innocence, just for its blood. And last but not least, he even sacrificed his soul multiple times for immortality.
      Now I think about it, he is even worse than Emperor Palpatine.

Wendy especially seems to be somewhat "enjoying" or at least becoming very indifferent to their impossible position whereas Marty (who caused or at least allowed himself to get involved with the Cartel) has retained more of his previous characteristics before the Cartel turned them into murderers & manipulators. I'd currently class Marty as a C+ and Wendy as maybe a B?

    I think, no matter what, Amon Göth has to be the most evil person and he needs to be the first in the list. The fact that he was real and that he did those horrible things in reality only for his own amusement and because of boredom is enough in my opinion. Also that the concentration-camp survivor started shaking uncontrollably when she saw Ralph Fiennes in Göth's complete SS uniform on set, because he reminded her of the real Göth, is just so sad. Most other characters are fictional and unrealistc, or at least their crimes and what they did. Göth's crimes were actually toned down in the movie and he isn't displayed as cruel as he actually was. The producer though, displaying Göth in his full cruelty would be "unrealistic" and he would seem exaggerated to viewers for a "real" person.

Also it's interesting how he's also the driving force for much of the shows events and even forces regular people to unleash their dark primal urges, for instance Lester Nygarred, who would be another interesting character to cover, as he's a bit like Walter White in that he starts off as a character owing sympathy but soon becomes quite the evil individual, so yeah I'd love an analysis on those two

    A couple of things : Ratchet should be higher because she abused her position as a medical professional to kill and lobotomize two men , High B tier for sure . Captain Vidal is a war criminal not one like Barns or Kurtz ( I agree with their ranking , the VC were the bad guys and in all reality they probably had the right idea on how to fight ) . Vidal earns a Low A tier in my book . Azula is 15, and despite the argument that if it wasn’t a Kids show we’d see her kill more people, the fact remain we don’t . For all we know there could be an in universe explanation , maybe Ozai did actually care for his daughter and kept her out of situations where she would kill more people, also she had bad mental health issues . High C low B . Annie Wilks is a funny situation for me , I’ve read the book but have not seen the movie , and my opinion , she should have been higher , maybe low A tier . First her numerous murders of infants and old people plus her own Dad ; and the fact that she slowly broke down a man reducing him to a drug addicted shell . As for the Star Wars villains ranking I’d say Palpatine is good ( I’m sort of split because Göth WAS real , but it’s a fair argument to say that Palpatine would’ve done the same thing on a grander scale .) Then Vader ( come on he’s Darth Vader ) , then Doku ( he can’t be blamed for the entirety of the Clone Wars also the CIS we’re sort of the good guys ) and then Maul ( he was a pawn and a crime lord nothing more ) . Also Griffin should be higher than Pennywise because Griffin was a man while Pennywise is an animal , and probably has a higher body count . Overall great list !

  • @harryc657

    I would put IT just below Griffith because IT, although killed for pleasure, was ultimately killing to eat and sustain himself. Humanity was unfortunate to be on the lower end of the food chain. He sees us as the same way humanity as a whole see cows... Just something to hunt, cultivate, and eat.
    I would love to put Griffith higher, but comparing a power hungry leader to beings that killed hundreds, thousands, and millions, out of sport and pleasure, Griffith is at a good spot on the list. He kills and betray just to meet ends... Although he raped a woman who worshipped him *just to spite Guts*. (shivers)
    I say Griffith on this list is as realistically evil as a human can be while having redeeming qualities.
