Favorite Hero/Villain

[Jenn]

I don't know if this has come up but I was re-watching Star Wars and I can't really say that Darth Vader is my favorite villain anymore. I don't know why. Anyway, who's your favorite villain? And who's your favorite hero for that matter. (For me there is a tie ftw: Malcom Renolds from Firefly/Serenity and Achilles from Troy.) Could be from a book, movie, video game, comic book, or whatever else your genius minds come up with.

I totally agree on the whole Voldemort thing. Some villains are kind of wussy villains and only turn evil when something happens and makes them hate life or they were abused as a child or something like that, but Voldemort was evil from the very beginning and never had any remorse, even when Harry gave him the chance to repent at the end of the 7th. So yeah, You Know Who ftw.

And just to add my hero response because I don't feel like making a new post, I would either say Superman or Harry Potter. I grew up on Superman (my dad has all of the old tv shows taped on vhs) and he is just the classic hero and the head of the Justice League and totally made of awesome. And as for Harry Potter, well, I mean, he's Harry Potter. Selfless, brave, and has a "love for playing the hero". :D

BUt Voldemort was evil from the beginning because something happened to make him hate life. Had his mother not died then he wouldn't have hated weakness and done so much to avoid succuming to the ultimate sign of weakness, death.

I guess this would a nature vs. nuture debate and since I'm not in the mood for a debate I'll leave it at that.

[Julia Q]

Good point. I didn't think of it that way. :D

[James]

So Spider~Man is the Best Hero....
and villian... uh....
going to go with....
Principal Vernon from the Breakfast Club...

Villain: Sylar from Heroes. He just packs so much evil and so much awesome into one (hot) body.
Hero: That's really hard... I can't decide.

[Paige]

YES! Sylar pwns all other villians. And Zachary Quinto is hot. But that's beside the point.

Favorite Hero: George Cooper from Tamora Pierce's novels. He's a secondary character, but he's so awesome!

[CatieCat]

Ooh, I LOVE George! George is awesome, he's always taking care of Alanna, and she needs it. Especially after Faithful dies. She needs to be grounded, because she's so wrapped up in being a legendary hero.

[Liz Parsons]

I agree with you about Sylar!

[Freakish Lemon]

Sylar is definitely made of win. XD

[AmBuur]

it would have to be the joker from batman
without a thought

[Jenn]

I would have to agree. Jack Nicholson, as well as Mark Hamil's creepy voice. Why didn't I think about that sooner? lol

[The Lemurian]

Just books and movies, you say. Well, that cuts down the playing field, allowing me to choose...

Liandrin from Wheel of Time. On bare-faced cheek alone, she comes a ways ahead of just about any other villain in the series.
