Kara why are you posting as Caped Baldy now?
Just move Vader from 3rd to 1st keep Exorcist and Witch then replace 2,3,5,6,7,8,10 with Tarkin, Alien 79, Queen Alien, Terminator, Predator, Hans, Palpatine and then find a spot for Clubber Lang lol.
That AFI list is AFI alright, All ****ing Idiots lol
And there's literally three villains in RoboCop *alone* that I'd rank higher than Lecter.
"MUH villlain is better than your villain."
Guys, we're not in 3rd grade anymore. Besides, Hannibal, Vader and the Terminator aren't as cool or bad as they used to be. Nothing is. Times change. Half the characters and lists out there will be relics in the future. That AFI list is 20 years old and hardly relevant to current times.
Lists are stupid, unless you're in a business or medical field.

Wicked Witch of the West, Norman Bates and Nurse Ratched were more relevant three decades ago, sure. Now? Not so much. When we die, the love for these silly things die with us.
Lists are stupid and pointless, unless you're in a business or medical field.
I can’t help it that my ANALytical scientific mind takes up space in both sides of my brain.
Yummm brains..... send more paramedics.
Speaking of lists, the AFI 50 heroes list is a bit more...relevant, but if updated, it would look drastically different.
I forgot about that scene where Lecter eats Henry Hill's brain or throws Gary Oldman into that pen of man eating pigs or gives that little kid on the plane some brains to try.
Maybe he is the best villain of all time.
Is Clown like 70 years old lol
Atticus Finch? Casablanca man? George Bailey? ****ing Lassie???
Prince pls.
