Age of Ultron Least favorite MCU villain?

[Ultron-5]

I have created this poll so you can vote for and discuss your least favorite MCU villain.

Edit: I know now that pierce should have been on instead of Winter Soldier, but Winter Soldier did some bad stuff too.

 

[Abstract]

Hard choice. I like them all. But I had to go with Loki because it's always annoyed me that his motivation is just that he's the God of Mischief.

Malekith's motivations are weaker than Loki's but he hasn't been as pivotal to the MCU as Loki.

 

[Harry Dresden]

Malekith with ease.

Zero personality.

EDIT: Pierce should've been on the poll BTW.

 

[Ms. Marvel]

If TWS is on this poll why aren't Selvig and Hawkeye?

Anyway, I pick Malekith. He's the only villain I've been meh on.

 

[Ultron-5]

Malekith with ease.

Zero personality.

EDIT: Pierce should've been on the poll BTW.

Oops.

 

[The_Manhunter]

Aldrich Killian. I did not like Guy Pearce's performance.

 

[Ultron-5]

Malekith was weird.

 

[Ant-manic]

i appreciated them all. but Malekith is my least favorite; because of the story/not his performance. the really good ones tended to be underlings; like Savin and Crossbones.

 

[Quasimod0]

Malekith could've been awesome. He had a perfect design, a great actor playing him, and he looks pretty sinister.

 

[Ms. Marvel]

Best to worst:

1. Loki
2. Alexander Pierce
3. Red Skull
4. Aldrich Killian
5. Iron Monger
6. Justin Hammer
7. Whiplash
8. Abomination
9. Malekith

I don't consider WS a villain so I didn't include him.

 

[Loki882]

Malekith, by far. God was he boring and what a complete waste of Christopher Eccleston's talents. Also, comic book Malekith is awesome and Eccleston would have been perfect for THAT version. Here's my list, from best to worst:

1. Loki.
2. Alexander Pierce.
3. Iron Monger.
4. Red Skull.
5. Abomination.
6. Whiplash.
7. Justin Hammer.
8. Aldrich Killian.
9. Malekith.

Winter Soldier is not a villain.

 

[Destined]

Definitely Killian.

 

[Thundercrack85]

I found Red Skull fairly dull, since they toned down his Nazi-ness, and made him more generic evil guy who wanted to take over the world.

But, at least he had that going for him, and a cool design. Malekith might as well have been billed as generic dark lord guy.

I think Loki and Iron Monger are the universe's strongest villains. They both steal the scenes they're in.

Where's my byird. I want my byird. Give me my byird. Better go cut up an F1 car. Where's my byird. Give me my byird. Why did you steal my byird.

God he was annoying

 

[Human Torch]

Killian.He wasn't awful.Kinda bland and had the same freakin powers as his underlings.Nothing special.

 

[jolldan]

Definitely Killian for me. Iron man has always been by favourite of Marvels films RDJ is just perfect at the role. I didn't know much about the Mandarin other than what I had heard from friends who had read some of the comics so you can imagine how disappointed I was expecting to see this guy with 10 rings of power and then he becomes the joke of the film. Killian's character is just another man obsessed with power.

 

[The Question]

Maliketh, hand's down. I don't even see how it's a discussion, the dude had absolutely nothing going on. He wanted "darkness" just 'cause. Nothing else there. What a weird failure in writing.

As much as I enjoyed TDW, the whole movie is a failure in writing. So many loose threads...

 

[StarkyStark]

MALE mother****!ng KITH

no personality whatsoever

hell even WHIPLASH and his BURD is better

even TREVOR w/o the reveal is menacing

Malekith is also one of the reasons why Thor 2 is an absolute piece of shining crap worse than Man of Steel

 

[StarkyStark]

and i love Tim Roth's Emil Blonsky for me he is a little bit better than Obidiah

not the Abomination

 

[TheVision]

Malekith: He was basically the anti-Loki. Nothing going on at all to make me interested in the character. So dull, forgettable.

 

[The Caped Knight]

Malekith
Whiplash
Killian

 

[TheVision]

Iron Monger: Not really the greatest villain when hes in the suit but Jeff Bridges was awesome as Stane.

Whiplash has one of my favorite intro/attack scenes in the MCU but the way he was turned into an office boy by Hammer just took all the coolness away. I still really enjoy IM 2, its just a fun movie that blends humor and action really well.

Red Skull: A classic villain that I wish would be an ongoing part of the MCU. Hugo Weaving was perfect, Loved the makeup too.

Abomination: Big fan of Tim as Blonsky, but The Abomination was a big dumb CGI monster. I didnt care for it.

Killian: He was pretty good, but I was kinda dissapointed about The Mandarin not being the real one from the comics. The Extremis firey tattoo idea was so so.

Winter Soldier: Awesome assassin character I hope to see more of in future films so we can hear him talk/interact.

Pierce: Its Robert Redford, of course its great.

Malekith was the only choice for me. There were a multitude of problems with TDW, but the lack of development of the villain was the biggest one. He had no personality, no compelling motivation and a plan that wasn't a plan at all. Even his back story -- his race existed 5,000 years ago, before there was light(?) -- made no sense at all on any level. Maybe the writers are creationists who think that the universe was created only 4,000 years ago instead of 14 billion years ago because there damn sure was light 5,000 years ago. Also, Malekith destroyed his own world, so why was he pissed with the Asgardians again? That movie's plot was so damned stupid it makes me angry just thinking about it.

I completely disagree with the people who said that the Winter Soldier isn't a villain. He is. Brainwashing might give him an out but he's a remorseless killing machine with a higher body count than anyone other than Loki. Bucky might redeem himself after Steve deprograms him via head trauma in CA3.
