Who is your favorite villain in a motion picture of all time??
Eli Wallach as Tuco Benedicto Pacífico Juan María Ramírez in the Good , the Bad and the Ugly.
I thought Darth Vader of the original Star Wars trilogy was the ultimate villain. However, I mentioned the joker from the movie Dark Knight earlier because Heath Ledger (RIP) really nailed that role. That was possibly Heath's best acting performance ever.
Jason Robards in the greatest western ever filmed, Once Upon A Time In America.
Freddy Krueger. Robert Englund was exemplary in bringing him to life.
Can Television count? If so, Hannibal Lector from the TV series Hannibal.
The Joker from Batman is up there as well.

I've worked on plenty of short films/ feature films ( 3 Hollywood) and am now trying to start my own buisness.

Expand commentI had prepared my whole life for being on set. I was perfect. Quiet. Seemless. Never in a rush. They started calling me "Mr. Wizard" because I kept pulling useful things out of my bag. A good example of how prepared I was? It was an outdoor shoot in a wooded area, so I brought Pruning Shears. Those things got quite a work out! Clearing paths, cutting shrubs to cover a car for a later scene, and trimming a few set plants. There was this one moment where the talent was eating serial on camera and needed more milk. I instinctively turned, hit a light, and blew out the bulb. I nearly cried. Everyone on set was cajoling, saying "it's alright, happens all the time." "It shouldn't happen to me! I know better!" Hasn't happened since, because now I survey where every light stand, C-stand, and bulb are positioned.
It was a No-Budget Feature, that I line-Produced at a Hotel at LAX with no-permits and the captain of the Fire Department had lunch there everyday and asked and asked "Where's da permit"... Eventually, I palmed him 50 bucks and he went back to desert... Happy Filmmaking.

Expand commentI wrote the script but ended up gaffer and anything else on set. I'm great with cords and duct tape. I also pitched in on lighting. On one set I ran off two bulls pushing in on the wrong cue. You need to be ready to do what is needed on a set so the film gets done. People who need a fancy role or title usually do not work out for crew. Like lighting just doing lighting, etc. A set is a team effort but for the star. They work hard and have their role. Crew centers around the star hub. I love being on a set. I hope again sometime. The standing, waiting gig can get tough. But what you accomplish at any level is to be proud!

Expand commentYears ago was extra no "Miracle on Ice," for one day shot at the Olympic Training Center in Colorado Springs, CO. At one point a group of us were walking up a road on their campus. I was in middle of road, while then well-known TV actor Andrew Stevens was tossing a volleyball over my head toward a couple of other featured actors. I raised my hands for ball. While the other featured actors looked daggers, Andrew came over and introduced himself to me and thanked me for my good work. It was a great first day on set of a made for TV movie.
As an eager future filmmaker and at the age of around fifteen, I shouted 'That's a wrap!' after the first shot had been made. Everyone laughed (in a good way, luckily). Oh well... Lesson learned... ;)
