Disney Studios- The Sad Saga of Marvel Villains

   The Sad Saga of Marvel Villains

 A good comic book movie always has its competing forces; the hero and a villain. Alas, the strength of Marvel movies has never helped build up the latter. Most of the villains in the MCU are forgettable and are therefore unusable.

Iron Man (Obediah Stain)-  weak and useless

Incredible Hulk (Abomination)- Personally I think he's a good villain, but they didn't use him as well as they could, and they killed him off

Iron Man 2 (Whiplash)- They edited too much of him, made him boring and nonsensical.

Thor (Loki)- Obviously, Marvel has done well by Loki, but they've basically taken him out of the villain role altogether.

Captain America (Red Skull)- A good villain, a little boring, but again, killing him off doesn't do any good. Bring him back and build him up!

Avengers- (Thanks)- A great villain, who hopefully they will show the twisted titan for what he is.

Iron Man 3 (Mandarin)- Boy did they ruin this one...sigh.

Thor 2 (Malakith) Whatever his name is, it could have been good, but they didn't dive into him nearly deep enough.

Captain America 2 (Winter Soldier)- Once again, a good villain get transformed into a hero.

Guardians of the Galaxy (Nebula)- She could be interesting, but GOTG2 is also using her as a villain.

Avengers 2 (Ultron)- Personally I think they did him well, but where can you take him from here.

Antman (Yellow Jacket)- Weak villain. Can't even use him elsewhere.

Captain America 3 (Whatever the conniving guy's name is, boy did they ruin that one)

Doctor Strange (Mads Mikkelson's character)- Another weak endeavor


How do you make a strong villain? Here are some rules

1. There must be a back story to the villain
2. Hero and villain cannot just immediately start fighting, need a complicated relationship
3. Do not kill the villain or even allude to it
4. Do not use successful villains as heroes.
5. The villain should be a real threat to the hero (i.e. obediah stain against iron man is weak)
6. Do not make up villains or totally change the villain, but them call them a classic villain's name

Thoughts?
