20. Favorite movie villain...mmm...let me see...

Tue Nov 21, 2023, 10:12 PM

Nov 2023

1. Lestat de Lioncourt. Lestat was the ultimate brat prince and never had to endure poverty after Magnus turned him into a vampire. Tom Cruise and Stuart Townsend have played Lestat in the movies. Sam Reid in the television series. The photo that I'm sharing is someone's fanart, I do not own it.

2. The Joker (2019) Played by Joaquin Phoenix. I woke up one day and happened to notice that Joaquin has become a seasoned actor has been nailing it brilliantly. He almost quit acting but his brother River (R.I.P.) encourage him to keep acting.

3. Buddy played by William Ostrander in the movie Christine. Ran as a Democratic California 24th Congressional District candidate in 2016 but lost.

4. Christine. Christine didn't like to be man handled and killed Buddy and his friends in a vengeful rampage.

5. Maindrian Pace played by H.B. Halicki in the 1974 Gone in 60 Seconds.
