    That doesn't bother me as much as people who abbreviate the film A View to a Kill as FAVTAK. The short story and the film are not related! Perhaps those people never made it past the Octopussy credits...

    You like Silva from Skyfall so much that he is both number 4 and 9 on your list?

    It makes sense that Silva is both 4 and 9. It's difficult to get him out of your head once you've seen the movie! -{

    Francisco Scaramanga
    Ernst Stavro Blofeld (OHMSS)
    Hugo Drax
    Rosa Klebb
    Emilio Largo
    Kamal Khan
    Auric Goldfinger
    Max Zorin
    Franz Sanchez
    Dr. No

    I was torn between including Klebb or Blofeld from FRWL since it depends on who you consider the villain of that film and if Klebb counts as Blofeld's henchperson. Largo is certainly the main villain in TB over Blofeld, since the plan is all run by Largo and Blofeld doesn't have much to do with it.

    Following the same TB logic, Klebb would be te main FRWL villain, I guess. There's also Kronsteen who comes up with the plan.

    Though it wouldn't be able to count as part of this list, I wish I could include Peter Lorre's Le Chiffre. He always played the best villains. He set the bar so high for Le Chiffre that Mads Mikkelsen was a huge disappointment for me.

    Kind of interesting that the Donald Pleasance Blofeld doesn't get the love of the Telly Savalas version.

    For me it would be:

    1. Ernst Stavro Blofeld (YOLT, OHMSS and maybe SP if Waltz is Blofeld)
    2. Francisco Scaramanga (TMWTGG)
    3. Auric Goldfinger (GF)
    4. Le Chiffre (CR)
    5.Raoul Silva (SF)
    6. Kananga/ Mr Big (LALD)
    7. Dr No
    8. Emilio Largo (TB)
    9. Alec Trevelyan (GE)
    10.Kamal Khan (OP)
  • heartbroken_mr_draxheartbroken_mr_drax New Zealand Posts: 2,073MI6 Agent
    1. Scaramanga

    Then, no particular order here are my 9 other favourites:

    Khan
    Blofeld (OHMSS)
    Goldfinger
    Elliot Carver
    Elektra
    Sanchez
    La Chiffre
    Dr. No
    Drax

    Worst:

    Mr. Big
    Blofeld in YOLT and DAF
    Alec Trevelyan

    Kingsley Amis in his James Bond Dossier is clear on naming Klebb as the villain of FRWL.

    ^Kamal Khan is my current fave BV as well. He has some great lines:

    "Mr. Bond is indeed a very rare breed. Soon to be made... extinct!"
