Top 10 James Bond Villains

With the villain in Quantum Of Solace looking like an insurance salesman with no eyelids, Movie-Moron has decided to complete its 46 years of research (starting when Dr. No came out) into the top 10 very best James Bond villains.

10. Mr. Wint and Mr. Kidd (Diamonds are Forever, 1971)

Mr. Wint and Mr. Kidd are a duo of assassins working on behalf of Blofeld. They’re sadists, who talk in proverbs and finish each other’s sentences. Innuendo also suggests the pair are actually a homosexual couple, not that there’s anything wrong with that. They manage to put Bond in a coffin, have him cremated and bury him in a pipeline underneath the desert – not bad for a day’s work.

    Fun fact:

    The reason Blofeld was dropped down a chimney at the start of “For Your Eyes Only” was because Cubby Brocolli was involved in a legal case with Kevin McClory.

    McClory owned the copyright to the film “Thunderball”, which included SPECTRE and the Blofeld character. So Brocolli, in the world’s greatest “screw you”, had Bond finally kill his arch-nemesis in order to prove that the character could survive without his baddie.

    McClory later produced 1983’s “Never Say Never Again”, which is the same film as “Thunderball”.

    Now you know.

    “Red” Grant in FROM RUSSIA WITH LOVE. The coolest part was he was played by legendary badass Robert Shaw (who would soon go on to play yet another badass — Quint from JAWS). The final fight in a cramped train compartment, although more low-key than expected from a Bond film, is none the less one hell of a showdown.

    Alec Trevelyan! I mean come on! The first Post Cold War Era Bond movie and it was amazingly awesome!! The prior James Bond Ally and MI-6 Covert Agent returns after nine years of MI-6/James thinking he was dead and not only is his face scarred (which boosts his Bad Ass factor through the roof) but hes got Evil in his smile, Greed in his eyes and his motive is nothing more than good old fashioned Revenge. Not to mention his nerly endless list of awesome quotes:

    “Closing time James, Last Call”

    “I set the timers for six minutes, the same six minutes you gave me. It was the least I could do for a friend…hahahahaha!”

    “You know James, I was always better.”

    and the timeless classic

    “Why can’t you just be a good boy and die!?”

    Sean Bean is the MAN!!!

    Right on, Roy! Auric Goldfinger is No. 1! (Although he wasn’t ‘SPECTRE No. 1.’)

    Great list! although I think Red Grant and Necros should have been squeezed in … they were rather menacing! along with Odd Job and Jaws they proved to be pretty ruthless.

    I believe Goldfinger was a great villain but wasn’t exactly super menacing/scary – but he was very deceitful! How about that shady golf contest?

    Good list – I’ve always thought Karl Stromberg was well acted.

    No Trevelyan? Seriously?!

    Trevelyan would have been right at the top of my list; Blofeld would have probably fallen to third. Second would have to be Zorin, fourth would be Goldfinger, and fifth would be Carver.

    Oh, and where’s Brad Whitaker? 😀

    But seriously, no Trevelyan at all… that’s just shameful. Had this person seen ‘GoldenEye’?? :L

    Le Chiffre is for me the number one.The acting of Mads Mikkelsen is perfect and fits the story exactly.I always thought that Max Zorin was a good match for Bond,an insanely clever Walken,even though i realize there are many negative opinions.

    Logically,Bardem directed by Mendes will vaporise them all!
