Revolver Ocelot from MGS. He is just perfect. He has been a tripple-bloody-agent.. even quad agent. Just brilliant.

That doesn't mean what he does isn't horrible and evil and all, ofc :p.
Yeah, he wasn't that bad either...

But Hans Landa is more of a neutral.Sure he is a general for the third Reiche.But he is ready to give away his commanding officers.
He's not an antagonist because he's a Nazi, he's an antagonist because he's ready to screw whomever at the tip of a hat. He's a mercenary. He has no feelings towards anyone but himself, and he loves it. He cares about the Nazis as much as he cares about the Allies. Whomever will give him the best offer is his favorite. He's brilliant, charismatic, cold blooded, has a black hole for a heart and enjoys what he does.

Kane from Command & Conquer


Other favourites from games being Revolver Ocelot from Metal Gear Solid, Darth Revan and HK-47 from Knights of the Old Republic, Saren from Mass Effect and Albert Wesker from Resident Evil.

Film/TV wise, Darth Vader definitely wins. Baal from Stargate SG-1 and the Joker (mostly the Mark Hamill Batman: The Animated Series version) are great too.

All those points you made are good and all.But the way you put it made him sound like a neutral.As you said "Mercenary.".Which is a neutral in a way a dog is to whom who has the biggest steak.

Erm... No, I'm pretty sure he's the antagonist in that movie. I think you're confusing "bad guy" (i.e.: antagonist) with "evil". Evil is an abstract and highly subjective concept. I personally refrain from using that word myself. Generally speaking evil people are only evil to the people whom they consider evil themselves. The antagonist, however, is whomever opposes the "hero". Hans Landa is the antagonist in Inglorious Basterds. The "bad guy".

Jeremy Irons from 'Die Hard with a Vengence' had 'cool' written all over him. That awesome suit and sunglasses. That cool, calm, poker face during the first scenes.

Well, that's what I can think of at the top of my head.

Best hero ever.
You haven't seen the movie?

Christopher Waltz delivers one of the best acts of all time. Col. Hanz Landa is a better and more likable character AS A VILLAIN that most heroes are. He's just fucking awesome. He does everything I mentioned above and he does it with a particularly dignifying touch of class that's just amazing.

Inglorious Basterds. Go see it if you haven't.

Since the question is who is the "coolest" bad guy of all time, and not who is the most powerful, dangerous, or effective, the answer is obviously the Joker. With a flair for the dramatic, insanity, and complex evil plots, the Joker takes all.

Darth Vader would have to be my second choice.

Most Memorable Villain: Psycho Mantis (He knows I played Castlevania!! *fear*)

Most Realistic Villain: Ledger's Joker

Villain I would join forces with if only the plot allowed me to do so: Andrew Ryan
