Live Poll: The Most Memorable Female Villain

@mariojacobs 

Thank you, mario. I think I'll take your seven. Just got no time now.

@mariojacobs 

Ok, seven of your suggestions are on the list. It took a little time, because of a lack of time. ;) So the list is full. I must admit that I'm not really happy with the last two on the list. If there are better ones, I will change them. Thank you for suggesting. ;) Anyway Lori is a great female villain. I was totally stunned when I first got how bad she is. Sharon Stone is great. Same for Elsa.

@Breumaster

I think Caesonia, Caligula's wife, was evil too

@mariojacobs 

Than you, Mario. But I got two better ones. Lady Macbeth and Elle Driver. The movies are also rated higher. But maybe you got THE female villain for me. Unforgettable for all times. There are still places, I would change, if there is a better one. Hennessey and Vulnavia are very good ones. Hennessey is extortive to be bone and Vulnavia is a very classic female villain.

@mariojacobs 

I forgot one special I added now. Glenn Close in 'Dangerous Liaisons'. She shouldn't be left out.

@Breumaster 

When I consider it, Vulnavia was more like the servant of a villain, Dr. Phibes. It was tempting because of her bizarre behavior. But when I think of it, I also wouldn't put Magenta from 'the Rocky Horror Picture Show' as a villain, because she also wouldn't fit. She has no relation to the victims, like Elsa and the betrayed Indiana Jones. But I would put in Maria Ruskin instead. She had a clear object in the game. And she is very shifty.

@mariojacobs

Thank you, Mario. I'll make an exception and take Allex Forrest on the list, so it's 26 options. She really shouldn't be left out.

@ElMaruecan82 

I didn't say it's a recent phenomenon. When it comes to movies, I may not think in years, but decades. So "since some times" can even be 50, 60 70 years - it depends on the content. Why do think I was about to put Vulnavia on the list? Dr. Phibes is 50 years old. "Since some time" was a little metaphor to the downfall  of the patriarchay, which started decades ago - but many still don't get. Sixty years ago, women often were still nice house wifes who wouldn't be self-determined in most movies. The real emacipation came with the pill. And showing real mean female villains to a wide and accepting audience came later. But earlier female villains are allowed, too. They might be even more memorable, if iconic. I must admit that I don't know so many from 60's and earlier. Salome, perhaps? ;)

@Peter_pbn 

Yo, corrected!

@Jessica 

Thank you, Jessica. I tried a funny line, but failed by German language habits. ;)

I changed it to "Discuss it here". The options are corrected.

@rubyfruit76 

Hi, Ruby. I changed it.

@Pencho15 

I finally consider it as ready. But I can't know if someone put's out another iconic mean rabbit of his magical hat.

@Breumaster

I left three classic villains suggestions above which I don't know if you saw, they can be added in a repush if you like. 

@Pencho15 

Thank you, Pencho. Thank you Buddies! :D

@lbezviner​ 

I would add it and ask for a re-push, but it's questionable if it would gain an adequate amount of votes.

Oh, and I was almost blaming myself for not suggesting the female villains from the AFI list... I just realized I did talk about AFI in that thread. Mrs. Iselin isn't just one of the most memorable female villains but she's a memorable villain period... and she's one of the female villains who made it in AFI Top 50.

I realize that I'm in a minority but it's just that I've been using AFI lists ever since I started making polls...

@ElMaruecan82​ 

I guess this was an appeal to put her on the list and re-push?

I really figured it was too late for that but I wanted to add her to the conversation. I saw that movie shortly after it came out [yeah I'm that old] and it blew me away that mommie dearest [long before she murder wrote] was so evil. She's on that list for a reason.

@ElMaruecan82​ 

I'll do, but I wonder, if she will collect many votes after such a long time. Maybe she'll get some votes over a longer time period. I've put her on the list. I'll ask for a re-push. Let's look at it again in about three month or half a year.

@lbezviner​ 

I've put her on the list and now will ask for a re-push. Welcome, by the way. :D

@ElMaruecan82​ 

I'm sorry for not linking the character, but at the moment I can't click the characters. The technical problem is known and they work on it. Maybe you write the link here, then I can add it.

@lbezviner​ 

After fixing the leak with a critical system update of Microsoft, I can access the characters again.

I wondered the last days how strange my PC acted, sometimes.

While you're at it, maybe you would love to check if one from this list isn't missing:
