No John Travolta?
and more importantly, no Samuel L. Jackson
Definitely among the best three assholes. I've never seen Oz but Dennis Duffy is one of my favorite TV characters.
This makes me want to watch Coming to America, and then maybe Trading Places. Dan Aykroyd is a good ass for about half of Trading Places.

Brian Cox
Not an asshole in 25th Hour.
David Morse.
Not an asshole in Contact, The Negotiator, Proof of Life, nor Green Mile.

Matthew Lillard when he was younger
The Technomancer
card-carrying scientician
Poor Hugo Weaving. Its to the point where I feel bad for him. In Cloud Atlas he had like five different roles, all of them villains

Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that.

He is almost always a bad buy, but he is such a good actor that when he plays a good guy, he is just as good.

Crimson Tide is the only villain role I've seen him in.

Damn straight. There are no better actors.
This man is always mocking you. Always.

Unforgiven. Now.

He was also Lex Luthor/Nuclear Man in the Christopher Reeve Superman films.

Hackman doesn't really belong in this thread. He does however belong in a "Who's the greatest living film actor" thread though.
He's even fantastic in comedic roles. He was great in Get Shorty.
I just watched Bang Bang You're Dead the other day with him in it and was instantly reminded why i love him.
The guy truly is an underrated actor. He was fantastic in The Messenger, 360 and Here.
Wait what? you think Skinner was an asshole?

I don't really remember any of his roles besides Governor Devlin on Oz and Juliet's ex husband on Lost, but he seems to be a natural at playing smarmy asshole characters
Is that Ray Fisk? (One of the most sympathetic and tragic characters on Damages.)

He's the best in All About Eve so much that I actually start kind of rooting for him.
Jeremy Piven
He has the perfect face for it, too.
