Grishnakh and Ugluk!

My favorite villan is probably Gollum, even though it could be disputeable as to whether he is bad or not...

Gamigar · 07-01-2003, 01:46 AM

Morgoth.
First of all, he was really big, thats always a cool trait for a bad guy, and secondly, his name, Morgoth, that just sounds so cool.

Radagast The Brown · 07-01-2003, 04:03 PM

Gamigar, I think it's suppose to be the favorite bad guy from LOTR.

Gamigar · 07-01-2003, 11:08 PM

Oh, well in that case I would have to say, Sauron.

MasterMothra · 07-02-2003, 07:33 PM

sauron, of course! it always seems to me that the "bad guys" are noticably more interesting than the "good guys". they have a flair to their personality that is very likable.

***Jonathan*** · 07-05-2003, 08:09 AM

Saruman's my favourite bad guy in LotR. He's like Gandalf, but evil

. I like him because he tries to benefit from the fact that Sauron's on the way to taking over the world. That's not so stupid when you think about it.
I never liked Sauron in LotR but he was a great villain in AkallabÃªth, i.e. the downfall of NÃºmenor.
GrÃ*ma was not a pleasant guy in the books, but I really liked how he was described in the film. So in the LotR films, I almost think he's my favourite bad guy

Ruinel · 07-05-2003, 08:25 PM

Since this thread is in the LotR book forum, I would have to stick to bad guys in LotR. Too bad. But I would have to say that I thought Gollum was a great bad guy. At first, you didn't like him. Then, you pittied him, like Frodo. And then, you despised him. He was so complex a character, not just black and white, not just good or evil.

Then, of course Saruman, the maia sent to ME to help bring down the evil that lurked there and corrupted, and was corrupted himself. And when he was defeated, and he was given pitty by his conquerers, he gave one last stab at the heart of his enemies. Truely evil, and truely despicable.

Don't you see that in LotR too, but? For me, I first disliked him, then pitied him (Poor Smeagol) and then disliked him again, and then pitied him again. (The Ring's power over him). He was a good bad character too.

I don't think he's truly evil as such. He was ok in the beginning, wasn't he? But he is still my favourite bad guy- the way he keeps his enemies constantly in doubt (with his voice) about their own position towards him, his lust for power and his 'evilness' to the end (Scouring of the Shire)...great!

Aewionen · 07-18-2003, 07:34 PM

My favorite bad guy is Gollum. I laugh whenever he says "My pressssssiousssss." or "Gollum". He is my fav charater on the Hobbit. (Besides Bilbo and Bombur)

Kalile · 07-20-2003, 12:08 AM

I think that my favorite would have to be the Black Riders: they give me a chill, and they're responsible for the one cool female character (Eowyn) doing her heroic act.

My other favorite is the mountain Carhadras (sp?) because it defeats the Fellowship - who can survive Moria, if just barely, and walk the Paths of the Dead, and lead a hopless charge out of Helm's Deep- without even trying.

I also like Smaug, although he's not really LOTR...

Gollum makes me cry and my skin crawl, and Grima makes me want to wash my hands, take a bath, and brush my teeth.

elixir · 07-26-2003, 07:54 PM

I like that nice big fiery eye of Sauron.

I don't consider Gollum a bad guy. First, he was just a victim (but then you can say that so were the Ringwraiths) and he also saved the day at the end...

Saruman was also cool.

Varda Oiolosseo · 08-04-2003, 05:56 AM

I'd say the Ringwraiths. They were brilliant. Sending a chill right over you.

legolialis · 08-04-2003, 09:27 PM

my favorite bad guy would have to b sarumon or sharky as i like to call him. because he took over Theoden decieved the whole wizard councel, all his friends, and then tried to even become stronger than sauron but in the end gets shut down by HOBBITS!!! very comical

legolialis · 08-04-2003, 09:38 PM

sorry i didn't realize it was just between dark riders(nazgul) and gollum, hmmm between those two I guess gollum because he's so patient and he totlay decieved the hobbits by leading them to shelob which was awesome cause sam kicked butt lol

Leah · 08-16-2003, 05:11 PM

I liek Gullom, the best. His inner turmoil (if it can really be called that) is interesting to read about and gives his character more depth (or so I think), becasue he has a kind of split personality.

Elrond the Wise · 08-21-2003, 07:28 AM

My favorite bad guy should be Saruman or Gollum. Saruman is so evil that I just have to love, hate and admire him and Gollum is so funny for me.... althoug I feel sad about him in the end

I've been chasing grace; Grace ain't so easily found One bad hand can devil a man, chase him and carry him down. I've got to get out of here, just give me One Good Year!
