[QUOTE="changoo, post: 5409633, member: 97463"] [FONT=Comic Sans MS]Hello all. The title is pretty self explanatory. For some reason, I thought that it might be interesting to find out who was your favorite Villain from any form of media and why. Videogames, books, manga, the news, Rpgchat, whatever you want, just give a reason. I know I'm gonna hear the usuals, (Sephiroth, Hitler, Satan) but I'm hoping that I'll hear some out of the ordinary ones too. I'll go first: My current favorite villain is the badguy from the movie Kung Fu Panda. I really enjoyed watching the ruthless snow leopard Tai Lung for several reasons, the first being I sypathised with him. Here is this guy, been training in martial arts his entire life in preperation to be named the local hero, the Dragon Warrior. His unrelenting master, Shifu, trained him from dawn to dusk, every damn day, from childhood, to be the strongest, the most skilled, to be the [I]best[/I]. So upon reaching adulthood, fully expecting to be named the Dragon Warrior, Tai lung is outraged to learn that his teacher's master Oogway(SP?) says that there is darkness in him and he isn't worthy of the Secrets of the Dragon Scroll, the inheritence of the Dragon warrior. ISN"T WORTHY?! He trained HIS WHOLE LIFE, only to be denied at his moment of triumph. Wouldn't YOU be pissed? Then after attempting to take the Scroll by force and being defeated by Oogway, he is imprisoned for LIFE in Chorgum Prison. I mean come on, LIFE?! The guy did a bad thing, going crazy on the villagers like that, but to imprison him for the rest of his life for it seems more than a little harsh. And in that mean ass rack thing they had him in? He was in that torture device for twenty years for goodness sake! The second reason I liked Tai lung, was that he was unrepentant of his crimes and was determined to have his vengeance, even after Shifu admitted his mistakes and asked for his forgiveness. I mean, if you're gonna be bad, go all out, no excuses, no apologies. "I don't want your apologies. I want my Scroll!"[/FONT] [/QUOTE]
