View His IMDB PageJames Earl Jones


It takes a True Villain to make this list without ever appearing on screen in the movie for which he was nominated. James Earl Jones has done just that as the Voice of Darth Vader in the Three Real Star Wars Movies (See Star Wars, The Empire Strikes Back, and Return of the Jedi). (Those others don't count, really. They're hardly the same quality.) As the Coolest Bad Guy in the Galaxy, Darth not only strangles his minions with the power of his mind regularly just because they're stupid (oh no, not another Admiral!), he also commands a fleet of Ridiculously Enormous Spaceships and has a red lightsaber. Love the red lightsaber. Mr. Vader also sports Wicked Bad Guy Attire - big black helmet, all black outfit with cloak option, and a nifty control panel. And let's face it. He wasn't nearly as intimidating without the helmet. But again with that last minute change of heart. Wouldn't the last Real Movie have been better if Luke had joined The Emperor and Dear Old Dad and taken over the galaxy? Well, a girl can dream, can't she?


Coolness: (It's the voice, baby!)
Badness: (Come on. The Guy answers to The Emperor alone. He's BAD.)
Guyness: Questionable, what with the half machine situation, and we weren't willing to investigate further.
