 The Superhero Hype! Boards - Don't forget the Ultimate Heroes & Villains on Bravo
Narrated by one of television's classic super heroes Adam West, who portrayed Batman in the hit TV series, Bravo's upcoming special celebrates the heroes, villains and vixens who have created powerful impressions on fans throughout the years.
More than 50 experts, ranging from comic book creators to filmmakers and producers to the actors who brought these characters to life, were consulted for the formation of the super-powered top 20 countdown lists in each category.
It was obvious they were only commenting on the heroes who have had big movie/TV spots over the years, so they should qualify their ranking.

For example, stock characters such as villains and heroes are regularly on hand in melodramas and category fiction.
In the case of prominent political figures, the League of Women Voters, the Library of Congress, and the various arms of political parties are valuable contacts.
Since a stock response may interfere with or prevent a more appropriate and less conditioned response from an audience, conventional exploitation of the stock response has fallen out of favor in recent decades.

 salon :: :: media :: circus :: To Borgly Go Where No One Has Gone Before, By SCOTT ROSENBORG :: Page 1
Still, "Star Trek: First Contact" would fall easily into the "see it and forget it" category but for the villains it puts on view: those paragons of groupthink, the Borg.
Part New Age gurus, part cyberpunks, "Star Trek: First Contact's" villains are the enemies we deserve.
It does have the distinction of being the first "Star Trek" film in which William Shatner makes no appearance not even for a flashback second and that alone deserves a certain amount of grateful applause.

In any case, he now fills another category of Firefly villains: the faceless, phantomlike Reavers at the edge of space, seen in "Bushwhacked," the Alliance, aka the evil under the law, and the evil outside of the law, namely Niska.
But in the end what really makes this episode interesting are the issues people talk about, and the way the structure Firefly's universe continues to grow, even while faced with growing rumors of cancellation.

 The Triplets of Belleville (Les Triplettes De Belleville) Movie Review - The Triplets of Belleville (Les Triplettes De Belleville) Movie Trailer - The Boston Globe
Champion enters the Tour de France -- bike geeks in the audience will get a satirical charge out of the gaunt racers with their massive calf muscles -- but halfway up the Col du Femur he is kidnapped by villains who look like the Men in Black cross-pollinated with a Kleenex box.
The work of Hayao Miyazaki ("Spirited Away") and Bill Plympton falls into this category; so does Richard Linklater's "Waking Life." The French animator Sylvain Chomet's "The Triplets of Belleville" is the latest emissary from the cartoon beyond, a simple yet darkly hilarious tale of a boy, his grandmother, her dog, and three frog-eating vaudeville stars.
They end up in Belleville -- part Manhattan, part Montreal, all bent angles and squalor -- where Champion is forced by a diminutive wine mogul to participate in underground races on a strange Rube Goldberg contraption.

 ETHICS, MORAL CHARACTER AND AUTHENTIC TRANSFORMATIONAL LEADERSHIP
While Bass originally argued that transformational leaders could wear the black hats of villains or the white hats of heroes depending on their values; now only those who wear white hats are seen as truly transformational.
Shamir, House and Arthur (1993) and Conger and Kanungo (l988) conceive of the same components as all falling under the category of charismatic leadership.
Previously, Bass (1985) mistakenly argued that, although the dynamics might be the same if the leaders had virtuous or evil ends, the moral differences were a matter of their aims and values, not the dynamics involved in their influence.

 DVD Talk Forum - Travis Bickle is NOT a Villain!!!!!!
Travis Bickle, Alex, the entire cast of Starship Troopers, Tyler Durden - they may be protagonists, we may empathize with them, but in no way do they fall into the category of anti-hero.
Now Bonnie and Clyde, I'll argue in the context of the movie they were not villains.
Travis Bickle is both an antihero *and* a villain.

 VH1.com : Movies : Person : Cary-Hiroyuki Tagawa : Biography
When Tagawa plays a bad guy, he plays it to the hilt, trying to imbue his villains with depth to demonstrate that in order to be so successful at being bad, they must possess a certain amount of positive qualities, including discipline, intelligence, and commitment.
Many of his film appearances have been in the direct-to-video category.
Tagawa's willingness to accept villainous roles such as that of the wicked sorcerer Shang Tsung in Mortal Combat (1995) has drawn criticism from certain Asian American groups, who fear that he is perpetuating negative stereotypes, but Tagawa offers an interesting perspective, citing the fact that the action film is the most popular genre worldwide.

 New Statesman: Never say die another day: Philip Kerr on how the new Bond movie takes pastiche and self-parody to new heights - Film - Die Another Day - Movie Review
It is merely a good Bond movie that is, more or less, a category of entertainment unto itself, and, as always, requires a suspension of wobbling disbelief as would span the River Thames.
For me, the nocturne was much simpler: my God, you know you're getting old when the Bond villains start to look wet behind the ears.
Even in the early days, when the films were still based on the books, it was never a good idea to tug the plot lines too rigorously.

 The Misconceptions of Witches :: Paganality.com :: (yes, it's magik :)
Most people don't, so to them Witches get lumped into the same category with vampires, poltergeists, werewolves, and predatory aliens from outer space as "imaginary" villains.
Witch burnings, though a thing of the past, are still rather fresh in the Pagan memory.
The whole idea of good Witches with white magic and bad Witches with black magic is a huge misconception, just like the myth of the good guys with white hats and the bad guys with the black hats.

 LIFE SENTENCE - David Ellis . . . reviews
Ellis must be considered the leading contender to succeed fellow Chicago lawyer-author Scott Turow in the literary legal thriller category.
We spot (deliberately, of course) one of the villains early on, as Soliday's protege—a younger, more ambitious lawyer named Bennett Carey—is accused of overkill for shooting a home intruder in the back.
Ellis gives us a large novel that is propelled by both plot and character and it surpasses all expectations.

 Writer's Encyclopedia--Letter S
For example, stock characters such as villains and heroes are regularly on hand in melodramas and category fiction.
A fiction writer, through what his character says and does, has much better means of establishing character; in fact, unusual verbs of attribution tend to draw attention to the mechanics, and not the meaning, of a piece of dialogue.
That character may have some secret that affects the outcome of the story, but since the author never tells us what the character thinks—or remembers—but only what he says and does in the present, the viewpoint adds to the suspense.
