Ok everyone, we're over the halfway point of the year so let's have a review of our fave villains of 2016. Who's yours?

Mine is Shere Khan. He's just terrifyingly schrewd and so well played by Elba.
 
Shere Khan by default I guess. Most of these were incredibly mediocre though.
 
I have to go with Shere Khan as well. So far the only good villain of the year. Everyone else has been underwhelming.
 
No doubt. It's Francis, straight from the midnight showing of Blade II!
 
"Racism in Zootopia"

Kai was pretty damn interesting. Haven't yet seen Jungle Book.
 
Lex. BvS. He legit creeped me out.

Going demonically... The demon from Conjuring 2 - gave me nightmares.
 
Shere Kahn was the best.

Lex Luthor was the worst.

Most Villians that I have seen in movies this year have been meh or bad so by default I picked Zemo even though he was meh.
 
Out of the ones I've seen so far (Zemo, Ajax/Francis, Apocalypse, Lex Luthor, Doomsday (who I don't really think counts but whatever, and the Alien Queen in Independence Day: Resurgence), Zemo is the best to me, and it's not even close.

Lex Luthor was the worst. Apocalypse was dull as a post though.
 
Shere Khan has been my favorite so far. Zemo and Francis weren't bad either.
 
No Lex Luthor?
I'd say Lex did more scheming than any of the villains on the list, especially in the UC. But he was just a goofy buffoon completely superfluous to the plot apparently, so forget I praised him. :cwink:
 
Out of the five 2016 films I've seen so far. Zemo.
 
Matt Bomer's John Boy in The Nice Guys was a pretty badass villain.
