I had to get used to his drastically different role as well, but he did such an amazingly good job with it. My husband was familiar with him as the Sheriff of Nottingham in Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves, so I think it was easier for him to picture him as a villain.<br /><br />I got a really late start on that series, not Melinda Allenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06068173975292361071noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3633977426784875178.post-6231062341965958142016-01-22T16:03:06.648-06:002016-01-22T16:03:06.648-06:00: ) I keep forgetting to hit "reply" ins...: ) I keep forgetting to hit "reply" instead of "comment."

Brandon in Sense and Sensibility. It took me the first 3 HP movies to get used to hearing his voice as a villain! Maybe because it took me so long to read the entire series, I still think of him as one of the bad guys. : ) <br /> Erin Hawley Croninhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04542315209774891830noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3633977426784875178.post-11288014984963805112016-01-22T16:00:14.591-06:002016-01-22T16:00:14.591-06:00This comment has been removed by the author.Erin Hawley Croninhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04542315209774891830noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3633977426784875178.post-64831145192313660152016-01-21T13:44:35.111-06:002016-01-21T13:44:35.111-06:00LOL, how cute!LOL, how cute!Melinda Allenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06068173975292361071noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3633977426784875178.post-72267954144567401462016-01-21T13:44:01.211-06:002016-01-21T13:44:01.211-06:00I love a good villain.

This definitely makes me interested in seeing Maleficent.<br /><br />Snape was marvelously complex, though I do have my doubts about whether he's truly a villain.

I loved Marissa Mayer's portrayal of Queen Levanna in "Fairest." Even though Queen Levanna is so bad, I found myself sympathising with how she ended up where she was. Mayer did an excellent job portraying all the complexities of a great villain!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00455806643846195922noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3633977426784875178.post-56229630535713417822016-01-16T18:03:12.564-06:002016-01-16T18:03:12.564-06:00Snape would've definitely made my list, too!
