10 Best Villain (Canon)

http://www.starwars.com/video/the-s...0-best-villains



starwars . com's list ;

10 - Pong Krell
9 - Nute Gunray
8 - Asajj Ventress
7 - General Grievous
6 - Count Dooku
5 - Jabba the Hutt
4 - Darth Maul
3 - Grand Moff Tarkin
2 - Darth Vader
1 - Emperor Palpatine

I think Boba and Jango would be more suitable than Pong Krell and Nute Gunray.

My List ;

10 - Jango Fett
9 - Boba Fett
8 - Asajj Ventress
7 - General Grievous
6 - Jabba the Hutt
5 - Grand Moff Tarkin
4 - Count Dooku
3 - Darth Maul
2 - Darth Vader
1 - Emperor Palpatine

4-) Darth Maul
Darth Maul has an agility never before seen in Star Wars. This Zabrak was so strong with the dark side, he survived being cut in two.

Darth Vader should be at the top. He is by far the most famous and iconic SW Villain. And just one of the most iconic Movie villains of all time.

I don't think Vader would be evil without the Emperor though. He is responsible from Vader, so he deserves to be at the top imho.

Nah. I don't question Vader's supremacy as a pop cultural icon, but as a villain he is certainly trumped by the Emperor.

I question certain aspects of the list, but their top 3 is solid.

I'd put Maul above Tarkin, ignoring his CW persona.

Hey? He was Awesome in TCW. Sam Witwer did such a good job with his voice, I just loved it every time he spoke.

In TPM he had a cool presence but was not given any personality at all.

His personality was that he was pure ****ing evil and he wanted to kill Jedi, it was great.

The fact that anyone could prefer the shit-talking piece of annoying retcon that was this:

Well it's funny, because before TCW the general complaint was that Maul was hardly in TPM and didn't say anything.

Once he was being revived he obviously had to speak. And I for one Love the personality (especially the way Witwer voices it) they've given Maul.

Haters will hate I guess.

And it was hardly a retcon. It was more fleshing out a character.

thumb up

He may not have had much personality in TPM, but him being almost entirely silent was far more intimidating and cool than the generic Sith they turned him into.

He actually has a fair bit of personality in his TPM novels, he just keeps it to himself. You can't expect anyone to think he has much of a personality if they base him entirely off the film. But his portrayal in the film was still leaps and bounds better than the version who came out that cave on Lotho Minor.

It's funny, because I don't remember any of you guys going on about how cool Maul was before TCW.

ILS you're right about one thing. He always had a personality, just kept to himself while he was under Sidious. But you've lost me where you think the version of him portrayed in the novels was far superior to TCW version. They were both good in their own ways. But TCW version was just really enjoyable to watch in action (and I don't mean Sword fighting action).

TCW Maul was annoying, generic, supported by a feeble attempt at a plot, had a poor supporting cast, and basically goes against everything TPM Maul was built up to be.

Not at all. It was the Legend Eu's naivety to think Maul was just supposed to be a mere assassin(well from some of the writers anyway). In TCW however you can clearly see Sidious was this guys teacher all over.
