Those two are a re-imagining of a real life people. Goethe was Goethe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True, but I'm sure the character was re-imagined to an extent. I'm just grasping at straws here! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Milkman delivers Posted November 29, 2011 Share Posted November 29, 2011 I just realized that my #3 is also a real life person, and a few of my others as well. I know for a fact that #3 is very much sensationalized, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nunnigan Posted November 29, 2011 Share Posted November 29, 2011 QUOTE (knightni @ Nov 29, 2011 -> 12:29 PM) Technically, Goethe shouldn't have counted because he was a real person. Thats why I didnt put him on my list. Schindlers List is one of my favorite movies Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

clyons Posted November 29, 2011 Share Posted November 29, 2011 QUOTE (Milkman delivers @ Nov 29, 2011 -> 12:14 AM) Only two votes for Dr. Szell? I'm disappointed in 14 of you. I'm disappointed in me, too, considering I'm good for an "Is it safe?" reference about once a month or so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cali Posted November 30, 2011 Share Posted November 30, 2011 Sucks that there wasn't time for a December list cause I thought of a good list idea that I don't think we've done: Best Portrayals of Santa Claus in film/TV Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LittleHurt05 Posted November 30, 2011 Share Posted November 30, 2011 Damn, forgot about Warden Norton. Would have been at least top-15. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cali Posted November 30, 2011 Share Posted November 30, 2011 Nice! Daniel Plainview's my first to show up... Glad to see others agreed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nunnigan Posted November 30, 2011 Share Posted November 30, 2011 I thought I had Warden Norton on my list, but I must have made a last minute change I also voted for Plainview. I hoped he would have finished higher than an expected appearance by Anton Chugar. I liked There Will Be Blood more than No Country for Old Men, and should have won best picture.

Texsox Posted November 30, 2011 Share Posted November 30, 2011 Cruella De Ville and Big Brother my first to show up. I wasn't expecting either one. Glad to see at least one other person remembered them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Milkman delivers Posted November 30, 2011 Share Posted November 30, 2011 I have another Daniel Day-Lewis villain on my list rather than Plainview. And the more I see the movie, the more overrated the character of Anton Chigurh is. Tom Wilkinson should have run away with the Oscar that year for Michael Clayton.

CrimsonWeltall Posted December 1, 2011 Share Posted December 1, 2011 Wicked Witch of the West is an interesting entry. I've heard it argued that she's hardly a villain at all. Dorothy shows up, kills her sister, steals the shoes, then comes after her at the Wizard's demand. The version told in Wicked is also pretty cool, even if you just read a plot summary, rather than the book/musical: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wicked:_The_L...tch_of_the_West Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would go back with the wife if it were in Chicago again. I think the only other musical I ever said that to was Tommy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are a thousand emotionless killer villains. He just stole Two Face's coin gimmick and added a woman's haircut. I agree. It's another reason why I think others deserved the Oscar over Javier Bardem. I don't think it takes much acting talent to portray an emotionless killer. It's like the exact opposite of range.

She's never been to Broadway and i've heard it has a good story to it. I did exactly that two years ago at Christmas, though not at Broadway. I don't really have any interest in musicals and the music itself wasn't my style, but the story kept my attention. A lot of quirky origin stories for Oz characters and little twists.
