Hahaha. True. In fact, I read more about that doggo, and turns out that he was half wolf. He was more quiet than other dogs, and never wagged his tail. Production team said it was a very good and smart dog that always obeyed all commands, and it was a pleasure to work with him. Actors on set felt that he was actually uncanny, because he moved so quietly and rarely made a noise... Very fitting for the Thing.

@osanneart93182 жыл бұрын
@@401_jake Villain is the opposite of a hero, exclusively in a story about evil vs good. Antagonist is the opponent or counterpart of the protagonist (the main character), or more precisely the character that forces the protagonist to overcome their struggle (often because they ARE the source of that struggle). Not all stories have a heroic character as the main character (Derry Girls), a lot of stories aren't even about good or evil but simply about a character trying to achieve something (Gilmore Girls). Sometimes, the main character is the villain, while the antagonist is the hero (Death Note), or both protagonist and antagonist have some shades of evil (Peaky Blinders). In romantic stories, the love interest could be argued to be the antagonist, because the struggle is to convince them to love the main character back. Antagonist/protagonist is also used to describe relationships in scenes, instead of the whole story, in a way that villain/hero can't: in Daredevil, Foggy discovers that his best friend Matt Murdock has actually lied to him for years about being Daredevil. He feels betrayed and angry. While in the overarching story Matt Murdock is the heroic protagonist, and Wilson Fisk is the villainous Antagonist, that one scene is about Foggy and his feelings. Foggy is the protagonist, and Matt, without being the villain, is the antagonist, because Foggy's struggle to overcome is that he needs to decide whether he can trust his best friend ever again. So there are just so many situations in which the Antagonist not just isn't, but also CAN'T be the villain. Simply because that's not what those words mean in all situations. Very VERY often, they are considered synonyms, in the most simplest understanding of storytelling. but they are not the same thing.

I recently ran a D&D game where I claimed to my players at the beginning that I would make this villain "irredeemable", as I had a problem in the past with them redeeming any bad guys I put in. I set up the quest so an important NPC, a pirate named Captain Danassi, was the main focus on the quest, he was trying to get revenge on this ghost pirate and the players were trying to help him get there. When they did get to the ghost pirate, it was revealed that Danassi actually owed his soul to the ghost, and he attempted to trade the souls of the PCs for his own. He ran off with the ship, and the second half of the game was chasing him down for revenge. Needless to say, my players regard Captain Danassi as the best villain I gave them.

God of War nailed it, but it works as long as it's not overdone.

While I enjoy the film, you cannot convince me that Killian was a good villain. The build up was pretty effective, with the chilling videos and the destruction of Tony’s house, but all that hype is immediately shattered once we find out all of it is either fabricated, or part of Killian’s 13 year old temper tantrum for Tony not meeting him on the roof. Therefore the good introduction actively detriments the character, and lowers it from what would have been a mediocre villain in an otherwise okay story, down to a let-down.

A great example of gaining instant hatred for the villain is in Once Upon a Time In the West, where Frank and his gang murders the whole Mcbain family. Then ruthlessly murders the child and to make it more shocking it was played by Henry Fonda who always played the guy who stood for what was right. Another great way to buildup the villain is to have him/her being buildup through character interactions and see their reactions of fear as they speak of the villain. A great example of this is shown in Sexy Beast Don Logan's intro. The characters talk about him in a tone of fear of what's to come when he arrives. He represents the violent past of Gal coming back to haunt him. Its a simple scene of him walking through the airport but his buildup, the character mannnerisms and the fact that all the characters are feeling uncomfortable at his presence makes it such a great way to introuduce the villain. Also througout the film the main character Dove is shown as a chill and easygoing person. Don's the opposite he's all over the place, erratic and short tempered and vulgar.

The inversion of the theft-of-power introduction: the villain who is exactly right to crush your protagonist because he is the inversion of the protagonist. Think Clubber Lang in Rocky 3, who was dangerous not because he had what the hero had, but because he had what the hero /lacked/-in this case, the hunger for victory, the eye of the tiger. Another variation on this theme is the villain who lacks what the hero /has/-almost always morals and ethics, such as your own favorite Moriarty v Holmes. And you’re missing something huge here: villains introduced by the characteristic entry action generally reserved for protagonists. Any good hero introduction is a good villain introduction as well, when handled correctly. Think a giant spaceship running down a little one, a desperate and hopeless defense, a captured princess, slaughtered rebels, stormtroopers-and walking in over the bodies of the dead, the person large and in charge responsible for every moment of the movie so far steps in and surveys his victory. The music stings as the camera freezes on him to let us know-everything in motion is in motion because of him. This man is power incarnate. And arguably the most notorious villain of the 20th century was born. I don’t even need to say his name. That’s how big a shadow he casts. “ I would argue, in fact, that villains require far more thought and care with introductions than heroes do. They’re a far more critical part of the story. Diehard could have been Diehard with Arnold or Stallone-but it couldn’t have been Diehard without Rickman. Period.

I've always said the the bad guys are more interesting. They have such broad motivations, as opposed to the good guys (pun intended), who merely want to "stop crime." World domination, revenge, hubris, greed, mental illness, these are all reasons for supervillains to do what they do. At the very least, they're proactive, they set plans in motion, whereas the heroes are REactive, they don't make a move until the villains take the first step. Moreover, the heroes always play by the rules (unless they're considered anti-heroes), the villains do not, which means they are far more unpredictable. Sure, Batman is cool because of his relentless dedication and hi-tech gadgets, but you know he'll never kill anyone. The Joker, however? No one around him is safe.

Therefore the hate towards thanos stays with him but abbys hate has been directed towards the publisher as we've seen I suppose the key difference would be that those who sympathise with thanos do so of their own decision having seen the movie and his motivation.

Instead it felt like it was an exploration of how viewing different viewpoints of an action or a story can result in us as the audience to empathise with different characters.

I think one of the issues with Abby is that, they tried to make her a “sympathetic” villain. Like you said in the video, “first impressions matter.” And what Abby did, well, I didn’t really try to see her side of the argument because I was more interested in revenge. Naughty Dog said that they wanted her to be like Ellie, but like you said. When a random new character shows up, do some personal shit, you’re gonna want that new guy dead. I felt like the game left a bad taste in my mouth cause it tried to tell me that “Abby is also a good guy and Ellie is bad.” And they tried **INSANELY** hard to try and get the player to like the character by having her pet dogs and people going “oh hey! It’s my best friend in the whole world!!” Which didn’t stick with me. It’s a shame because TLoU2 could’ve easily been a solid game but there were some story decisions that didn’t make it work. If it was it’s own standalone game where we ONLY play as Abby and slowly build her up like how we played with Joel and Ellie in the first game, THEN it might’ve been really well developed, but it didn’t and it just rubbed a lot of people the wrong way. My two cents but I really love your videos, when I try to write. I take some time out to watch your videos and build the story up. Keep up the awesome work Filmento!!

They put Abby out there, make you hate her and then you have to play as her. in a game you connect and identify much more with a character and you don't want to do that with a character you already hate. That's why we hated Abby that much, cause we connected and idenitfied with Joel so much in the first game, we loved him even tho he did bad things and then Abby killed him before she herself as character was build up. Also the problem is that if you introduce Abby the way they did, you just hate her and nothing will change your mind. Abby should have been built up first as a likeable character who teams up with Ellie which left Joel after she learned what he has done. Then later in the game you would come across Joel and it turns out that he killed Abbys father and she kills him even tho Ellie who became her friend begs her not to. Now you and the characters are conflicted about Abby and you can go on with the story of Ellie hunting Abby and even have a similar ending with Ellie sparing Abby because we as audience feel a kind of sympathy with Abby we are never going to have in the real TLOU2.

The criminally underrated Joel Schuhmacher Movie Phone Booth with Colin Farrell is also a good example. In that movie Colin Farrell is introduced as an arrogant, rich, little Asshole, who cheats on his wife and is just treats others bad. Then he goes into a Phone Booth, to talk to his mistress Katie Holmes, until someone else gets into the line and tells him that he has him at aim with a rifle and now forces him, into becoming a better person and says that he would kill him if he would leave the Phone Booth. As Colin Farrell gets rude, he tells him that he no amateur and has done the same thing to multiple others like him and shoots of a small part of his ear to show him that he is serious. He plays with his emotions, he even straight up kills someone in front of him, causing the police to appear and him being framed. The Caller just won‘t stop taunting him. At a certain point he gives him the option of choosing if he should kill his wife or his mistress. Until at the he honestly is a better person. At the End he shortly visits Colin Farrell and it turns out, he was Kiefer Sutherland all along and tells him that he would come again, if he wouldn’t continue being like he is from now on. For the entire Movie, we haven’t seen Kiefer Sutherland and only heard his voice and aside from that Ear Shooting Part, he never hurt him, but made him so psychologically scarred, that he is now a better person (don’t you dare tell me now, that this is a Saw ripoff. This movie came out 2 Years earlier ). This movie is why in my opinion, even though he made B&R, I still think Joel Schuhmacher was a great director. May he rest in Peace.

All the fights before Baldur's introduction was about protecting him from strong but yet somewhat mindless non-humans trying to survive in their own way! So when Baldur comes in and says "Why are there two beds in there?", we (like Kratos) feel threatened and vulnerable that he might go for this young child. And that is what makes Baldur the villian, someone willing to target specifically what you care about.

Betrayal. I don't think it's coincident that Dante put traitors like Judas, Brutus and Cassius were put into deepest depth of Hell. I believe betrayal of someone you should be able to trust is one of the easiest way to make a villain memorable, and detestable. Even if his villain role was short lived, Tucker is one of the most hated character in all of anime. In FMA (spoilers ahead) her turned his only daughter and family dog into talking chimera (something he already did to his wife). While objectively it's not the worst thing a bad guy can do (number of victims are very low), it was that he did it to someone we all understand he should had done everything to protect. We all understand at least on surface level the relationship of parent and child, so then breaking it so casually feels so much worse than if it had happened to some random person. Another great example of this is Griffith from Berserk. During the Eclipse he literally sacrificed Band of the Hawk, his loyal soldiers, just to get personal power. Again, numerically it's far from worst atrocity in stories, but because there was this close bond between Griffith and Band of the Hawk, this moment felt so much worse and personal than it would had felt, if Griffith had killed larger number of secondary characters. You can also throw Aizen from Bleach here too. He was build as reliable, intelligent and calm person, until he was "killed". We get to see how this event affected everyone, so we understood how important character Aizen was in Soul Society. Then when we find out he's not dead, he fucking stabs Momo, a person who loved Aizen most, and after that we all knew Aizen is a heartless bastard.

@@lekrieg8618 Abby killed a random person? Plus, no one really cared about Ellie. Ellie is a static character in both of the games. She doesn't change. But Joel is the dynamic character. We see him change during the game and he's the one we care about. I noticed you didn't respond to my question either. About how if someone killed your father, you wouldn't kill that person? The movie Punisher was ok but the series one is a better argument. In the movie it ends with him getting his revenge. It doesn't show what happens after the fact. He has nothing to do after. Hell, he nearly kills himself from the emptiness and the thoughts of his dead family. In the series we see him get his revenge with Billy and he just goes from city to city having beers at bars and not doing much of anything. He was looking for purpose and found nothing. He found someone who promptly got shot and had to go to the hospital, but nothing else. Thanos doesn't get revenge either. He's above such little feelings. That's why he had a plan after he snapped his fingers

Can we just point out that in all 3 of the first point's examples, they're sequels, so not only do we have the introduction of the movie to establish our hero's abilities, but also the previous entries in that series.

Darth Vader. Walking though those doors after the magnitude of seeing a star destroyer for the first time, easily over powering the ship, slaughter of the rebel troops. Then to cap it all. He crushes a man throat lifting him in the air with one hand. Also that sound still gives me a reaction. It’s probably the most violent feeling scene in all of Star Wars.. you feel that sound ..

“If done properly” is the key - just showing him do some sadism or murder usually seems manipulative - I’ve always thought the worst way to introduce and construct a bad guy.

True, these are 101 tips this guy is giving, but if done poorly they can all fail miserably and there are great introductions for villains that use none of these techniques.

I love how Filmento always finds some streamer dude who perfectly verbalizes the reaction that a movie scene is supposed to invoke.

Davy Jones is probably my favorite villain intro period. A full hour of buildup with backstory, cronies doing his dirty work, and characters who’ve already met him are scared of him (Jack Sparrow). All of this coming together in a scene where he threatens a dying crew to join them on fear of death (something he doesn’t fear himself because he’s immortal). So masterfully written and executed.

Its the death of every movie trying to be realistic, everything is going great, the firefights are realistic and the actors handle the weapons well until they use a silencer and it sounds like a kitten sneezing, just takes me out of the movie every time.

Just another example: "PotC: Dead Men Tell No Tales" introduced the villain, Salazar, in a great way as well: with invigorating music, a mysterious presence, and the way he cuts down the British when he arrives is awesome

At 1:39 the villain "malaketh" is said but "Ronan the accuser" is shown and considering i didn't notice at first shows how forgettable he really is and I don't think this was a mistake in editing so I love it Good job
