Heroes vs. Villains
During the 1980s director Tim Burton produced the movie “Batman”. The main character, Bruce Wayne played by Michael Keaton, is a billionaire vigilante who defends the city of Gotham by night. The Joker, Batman’s arch rival, was played by Jack Nicholson. Jack portrayed a physically scarred psychopath bent on destroying the Batman and Gotham City. In 2008 Christopher Nolan directed the new and improved batman, “Batman: The Dark Knight”. The story behind Batman was very similar, childhood loss, inheritance, bats, and blah blah blah. I’m here for the Joker, played by the talented Heath Ledger. The Joker is the perfect villain to me. He is sadistic, schitsophrenic, who is bipolar, and an emotionally and physically scarred homicidal maniac. Straight down to his preposterous outfit, he never fails to be a creep. He claims to never have a plan, but through it all he has planned so far ahead he knows what will happen and banks on what won’t happen. The Joker is well deserving of being on this list, for the exact definition of villain is: a wicked evil person or scoundrel. Well to me The Joker fits right in. Mass murders, high stakes bank robbery, more mass murders. He kills just to kill, he blows up buildings just to watch them burn. Though The Joker would never kill his arch rival for the simple reason of “he’s just to fun,” he would have no problem killing anyone else who got in his way.
Indiana Jones, played by Harrison Ford, first appeared in 1981. Raiders of the Lost Ark starts by pitting Indiana Jones against the Nazis who are searching for the Ark of the Covenant. Jones is a respected college archeology professor at Marshal College. Jones has two personalities which allow him to be the sophisticated professor and the wild and adventurous archeologists. He goes out to rescue or obtain lost artifacts, treasures, and so much more. All while fighting whatever enemy he is put in with in that specific movie. Indiana Jones deserves to be on this list...
