Coolest, most vile, and stupidest villians of all time.

Coolest and most vile IMO: Mr. Morden from Babylon 5. He just sets things in motion, never dirting his hands himself.
 

Coolest: Actually tough - I thought of Darth Vader, Dracula, Fu Manchu, but I think Keyser Sose takes the crown for subtelty.

Most Vile: Tricky, but John Doe from se7en probably takes it.

Stupidest: Blofeld does seem to have a weakness for always giving Bond time to escape while coming out with endless exposition, so I think I can award this to him. Honourable mentions for all other Bond villans and
 

Cool: Thulsa Doom is cooler than Darth Vader, because he's a half-snake, half-pimp love machine. Vader, for all his supposed power, is stuck with the ol' Force Grip, if you know what I mean.

Vile: Blake, Glengarry Glen Ross. "Put the coffee down! Coffee is for closers". I get shrinkage whenever he's on---flashbacks of a sales job I had in college. The horror. The horror.

Stupid:
The Architect, The Matrix Retarded. Actually, I' like to renominate him as the vilest, because he sucked so hard that he not only made me hate Reloaded---but he was able to reach through time and space and make me retroactively hate the original Matrix. Nice work, jackass.
 

Coolest: It's hard to decide between Darth Vader and Kahn. Darth has the mask and the scary breath, but now we know that he was once cute and precocious, which either makes him far less cool over all, or far more badass because he went from "hit the nose!" and "it's working, it's working!" to "Apology accepted, Captain Needa." So, yeah, Darth Vader.

Vilest: Whichever it is, it's got to come from Farscape, because those bad guys just made you cringe whenever they were on the screen. It's hard to choose between Scorpius (killed 10,000 slaves on the off-chance that he might find the one he could use to ransom for Crichton's galaxy-destroying wormhole kowledge), Grayza (two words: heppel oil), or Furlow (apart from being just plain gross, she was willing to sell galaxy-destroying wormhole tech to the highest bidders).

Stupidest: Just look to the Batman movies post-Keaton. Carrey's Riddler, Arney's Freeze, & Uma's Ivy were all just... stupid. But, obviously, Bane takes the taco.

Coolest- The Drej from Titan AE and Tetsuo from Akira

Vilest- toss up between Linana (sp?) and Nirrti from SG-1. Both are willing to kill of whole populations to futher their genetics projects. This is also why I think the aboleth are the coolest D&D creature.

Dumbest- George Lucas? Seriously Captain Hook from Hook.
 



I assume that when people refer to the Joker as the vilest villain, they're not meaning the Joker as played by Cesar Romero on the old 1969 Batman TV show...
