It's a tie between The Penguin and Catwoman. Loved them both.
 
Devito's Penguin reinvented the character for the better I think. Plus he's got so many great quotes. Every line of dialogue from that man seemed either awesome, or awesomely perverted.
 
DeVito's Penguin for me was the best; horrifying, pathetic, tragic.

Then Nicholson's Joker and Pfeiffer's Catwoman. Both excellent.
 
Jack Nicholson's Joker was the best villain from the 89-97 era.
 
Catwoman.

I would've liked Nicholson Joker, if he didint piss his pants when falling down.
 
Gotta go with Nicholson as the Joker.

Pfeiffer as Catwoman comes in at a close second.

And Devito's Penguin would be third.
 
Catwoman was my favorite but I didn't really find her villainous.

As for my favorite villain, Penguin would be first for me, then Joker, then Riddler, then Poison Ivy; All because they acted like true villains, even if there was some camp.
 
Catwoman gets my vote. I loved Michelle's portray :woot:

Others i enjoyed were Riddler and Joker.
 
I liked them all apart from Ivy, Bane and Freeze. But I picked Joker.

"This town needs a enema!"
 
Nicholson as Joker. He is so much fun to watch in that role. :up::up::joker:
 
It's difficult, I'm torn between the Joker and the Catwoman. Ultimately though, I have to go with Joker. Nicholson was excellent in that role.
 
Catwoman.

I would've liked Nicholson Joker, if he didint piss his pants when falling down.
You said the same thing in a couple of other threads. It's not even funny. :dry:
 
Catwoman for me, I think its because out of all the villains out of any film/show she's the only one I like more than the comics, the chemistry between Bruce & Bats was spot on, Michelle was a great actress, the suit was original & awesome, her story though not comic book accurate I liked a lot as an alternative to just being a thief, & every scene she was in in Returns was fantastic & I personally believe there will never be a better portrayal of the Catwoman character ever in any future films, period.

Joker comes second, with Penguin not far behind.
 
I think they were going for comic villains brought to screen; Otherwise Shreck goes after Joker for me.:up:
