Favourite movie villain: A tie between Richard Gere as Dennis Peck in Internal Affair (1990) and Harvey Keitel as The Lieutenant in Bad Lieutenant (1992).
Quote:
The Nun: [about her attackers] I have forgiven them.
The Lieutenant: But do you have the right? You're not the only woman in the world. You're not even the only nun. Your forgiveness will leave blood in its wake. What if these guys do something like this again? To other women, other virgins? Old women who die from the shock? Do you have the right to forgive them? Can you bear the burden, sister?

Bad Lieutenant
Quote:
Peck and Avila are discussing Avila's wife, Kathleen]
Dennis Peck (Richard Gere): She's very pretty too. A little skinny for my taste, but they say the skinny ones give good head so...
[Raymond knocks him to the ground]
Dennis Peck: OK, here's what's going to happen. I'm gonna f*ck her for a while and teach her how to come.
Raymond Avila (Andy Garcia): Get up!
Dennis Peck: Then that way, she can show you what she likes!
[Raymond decks Dennis again]
Dennis Peck: They said you're a pretty good boxer, Raymond. You're pretty f*cking good.
[coughing blood]
Dennis Peck: Not bad!
Raymond Avila: [throws a handkerchief at Peck] Clean yourself up!
Dennis Peck: Give my best to Kathleen!

Dennis Peck: [after decking Raymond in an elevator] Hi, Raymond!
[referring to Raymond's wife]
Dennis Peck: You know what she really wanted? You know? Yeah, I should have guessed. She liked it in the ass, Raymond. That's right. Right in the f*cking ass! Drove her crazy. She came so much, for a second I thought she was going to pass out on me.
[decks Raymond again]
Dennis Peck: You know what they say about Latin fighters, Raymond? You know what they say? Too f*cking MACHO! That's right. TOO F*CKING MACHO! They don't backpedal when they have to. So they're used up. Young.
[dangles a pair of panties in front of Raymond, then gives them to him]
Dennis Peck: Yeah, why don't you clean yourself up with that. That's right. Clean yourself up.

Internal Affairs

X2. He was great in that movie. Loved his chrome HK P7.

Jack Palance in "Shane" was good also.

This is the first thing that came to mind when I read the title of this thread.

List of James Bond henchmen in The Spy Who Loved Me - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Although Billy Zane get's my vote as a favorite. Actually he gets all my votes. For whatever he's running in.

Cruise was superb in that most excellent film.
LOL Donth8Me, I too find Zane quite handsome--but I really did think he was a good villain in Titanic.
Heath Ledger was *fantastic* as the Joker. ::sigh::
