I constantly get into arguments about this on home server, so I want to put the issue to rest. Who is your all-time favorite SW villain?

Well... Tarkin was overconfident that the death star could not be destroyed and paid the price for it. Thats not brave it's stupid. Vader got out in his TIE advanced and took out half the rebels. (maybe not half, but a bunch of 'em anyway).
Tarkins okay (weak and stupid as he was) but Vader could kill him with not so much as a gesture.
I rest my case.:P

I think palpatine is the greatest villian because he made clones of himself incase he was ever killed, then he could come back and continue his destruction with the Death Star!!! :)

But Tarkin is so POWERFUL! (not in the force sense, I admit) He was one of only four men -the others being Palpy, Obi-Wan, and Watto-who ever got to boss Vader around (although the latter did not do so in his final form). He is incredibly ruthless. After all, he blew up Alderaan during a routine prisoner interrogation. It's scary to think what this guy would've done with the force. I was disappointed in Lucasarts for killing him after about 2 hours-he had SO much potential!

Vader, he's really evil. Palpy is runner-up and very close, but Vader is the greatest. And I mean Vader from ANH, not the Vader afterwords. He got mushy, when he started to hunt Luke. Palpy was always doing everything for himself, but never moved a single finger, Maul, Dooku and Vader did it all. Besides, everybody knows Vaders breathing and his voice, it gives him the number one place in coolness factor (atleast in my book). Come on, he exterminated almost all the Jedi, alone. Remember, that they were his brothers or such, well it was a knighthood after all. Why did they hid his kids? Because he would make them killer machines, like himself. He was no manipulator, but look what he did to Leia in ANH (interrogation).


Yeah, I am a Vader fan. ^_^

I vote Jacen the most evil person in the JA universe :D

I voted for Palpy... just look at him... he plays his little political games and fools the whole Republic.

Yeah, Vader is cool with his intimidation-factor, but remember, even Vader fear the Emperor. Just one little word from that raspy voice of his and a planet can be destroyed.

PS: Sauron pwns them all! :P

Oh hell yeah, don't get me wrong; Fett is the shiznit. But I think there are several factors to a badguy... of course, there's the coolness factor. Maybe.. just MAYBE I'll admit Fett beats Vader on that one. But there's also the practicality factor: their ability to be evil and cause terror on a whim. Stemming from that somewhat, the evil factor. And of course, the sheer intimidation factor. Personally, I think Vader wins on those last three counts. Sure Fett is kinda evil but.. Vader kills his own people. He has a Super Star Destroyer, for cryin' out loud, that helps him cause terror -just a tad-. And intimidation? Christ, look at the guy.

lol, true true. I agree it's close between the two, but I still think the fact that Boba can do what he does without even using the force is amazing enough. If he ever was to wield the darkside, darkness may befall us all. (Grip or persuasion would be a great way to collect bounties :)

I must not fear . Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear . I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.

To answer that question I would say... a guy who can kill you from across an entire imperial task force fleet with nothing more than a thought and a gesture.

[edit: plus he got schooled by a blind pilot]

I'd say Boba because he's got all the intimidation of Vader but his intimidation isn't force based. What's more scary then a guy who could take on Jedi and put up a good fight without using the force?

Tarkin was an awesome villain I admit. He could totally have done a spinoff lol
But I'm going to have to go with Vader. I'm convinced he's the best villain in -any- movie, actually. He's intimidating, he's omnipresent and omnipotent, he's got it where it counts in mind, body, and moolah..
