Ouch! Papaltine vs Magneto, so hard ...

That one was rough. Even tougher than Palpy vs. Iago. Which I was surprised by. Iago is one of the best villains in the history of theater, IMO.

... and to have to kick the Borg Queen out ...

Meh. I agree with someone who posted earlier that she should never have existed.

She was pretty cool in and of herself, but she watered down the concept of the Borg tremendously by her very existence. Not a game-breaker, but it did make them less menacing and less alien. And what Voyager tried to do with the concept later just irked me. (Though, to be honest, everything about Voyager irked me, so it got to the point that even their good ideas wouldn't play with me.)

I'm surprised by many votes Sauron is getting.

Its the One Ring, man. More famous than Stormbringer. The only "magic" items that are more famous than the One Ring are Excalibur and The Holy Grail. And maybe the Death Star.

Yeah, maybe "Locutus" would have been a better Borg representative villain. Ah well.

 

[Mad Hatter]

I chose the Borg Queen because she is never redeemed. Vader is. She's the lone individual in the collective and she actually realizes and encourages the horrendous crimes of the Borg. That screams villain to me.
