The Star Wars universe had amazing villains (other than vader). Boba fett, Jaba the Hut, storm troopers, the emporer and dearth maul in the new ones are all great. Other than Han Solo and yoda, I think most of the villains are cooler than the heros in this universe.
Also every enemy Alan Rickman plays. His version of the sherif of Nottingham was infinitely more enjoyable than Costners portrayal of Robin.

Seriously ... Alan Rickman was even better than Bruce in the original Die Hard.

Simon - Die Hard with a Vengeance.
Also, this motherfucker right here from the Gargoyles animated series, David Xanatos.
EDIT: Thinking about it, both Gargoyles and Batman animated series had so many interesting and fantastic villains. Pure greatness.

Nah. I liked Jeremy Irons and I loved Alan Rickman, but John McClane was nobody's bitch.
Nah. Everywhere.
The books have been more sparing in their use of him, but Joker has been consistently the most popular villain in either DC or Marvel since probably 1988.
Stonecold Steve Austin - he was supposed to be a monster heel but people loved him especially after famously passing out refusing to tap in the sharpshooter against Bret.
The Rock too, multiple times. Only really successful time he got over as a villain was against Austin or Foley in the corporation or as Hollywood Rock after returning for a bit after his first movie run. Although he was also hated at first when he was a face as Rocky Maivia lol

Huh? What did I say? Did I screw up again? :(
I was going to mention this... Can't stand the series but this is the impression I've gotten from the fans. You don't hear them say shit about Jojo... its always Dio.

The shark in Jaws.
Well, there's more than one Jojo but only one DIO. What's your gripe with the series?
Inglorious Basterds
Col. Hans Landa
He was brilliant.

Arguably Nedry is the primary antagonist and Hammond is the indirect antagonist.

For some reason I thought of him as well. Maybe because the Hero is silent. But... no, not really.

L is the hero though. Death Note does this reversal where the protagonist is the villain and the antagonist is the hero.
L aint a villian
