I object! Gremlins are not villains, they are nice wee furry critters unless mishandled by clumsy humans! 😀

That’s true, but I feel Stripe was bound to be villainous regardless of the rules.

Agreed! Also I object about Travis being a villain! He is a monster created by the system :)

Disagree! With the exception of Gizmo, the mogwai in the movies were jerks who manipulated things specifically so that they'd get turned into gremlins.

So, Ken--Barbie's long-time doll companion for decades--is portrayed as the enemy in this film? I hope it's farcical.

Oh yeah, the whole movie is a joke. They get along for the most part but you’d call him a villain.

I mean this version of Ken is the representation of toxic masculinity. So on point! :)

Ah, a representation of something that does not exist in real life. Weird.

Toxic masculinity doesn't exist? Time to stop drinking beer, buddy, you're out of touch with reality.

(And no, accepting that fact doesn't make you "woke" - or "one of them", as your reasoning probably goes-)

He's arguably the antagonist of Barbie but I wouldn't call him a villain. He does some harmful things but it's more out of ignorance than malice.

And his actions end up harming himself as well.

he actually isn't a villain, he is portrayed to be equally affected by the patriarchy and anyone who came out of that movie thinking ken was supposed to be the villain is wrong and lacks media literacy.

Neither Travis Bickle and Alex DeLarge are villains.

So a gang leader who murders, steals, and assaults women isn’t a villain? I mean, if we take away people who are villainous because of psychopathy and societal causes, what’s left? How many characters just choose to be evil for no reason?

He was a villain at first, but he had changed. The whole movie is about forgiveness and how society can't believe in change.

Oh and by the way he wasn't a murderer, he only killed one woman by accident.

the movie is not about forgiveness, it is about choice. Alex was 'good' at the end because he had no choice. to follow his natural impulses would have caused him terrible pain. is that really being 'good' if you have no choice in the matter?
+1
Level 65
May 31, 2024
Yes, it is about choice but after he is out of prison everybody still treated him like a villain.

And i believe the last line of the Clockwork orange was "they cured me" cause he was just cured

Alex wasn't cured in the movie, watch it again. He broke the ludovico programming and was back to his old self.

Level 79

Hard to say. I haven’t read it, but I’ve been told that the novel has him breaking Ludovico and choosing a better life. Maybe the movie implies he’ll change, too.

The American version of the novel was missing chapter 21, the final chapter. It was added to UK prints. The American version matches closer to Kubrick's interpretation. The UK version shows Alex giving up his sociopathic tendencies by his own free will.

Doesn't matter if he's a villain or not by the end of the movie, since he actually is a villain for most of it. So the label still applies. Would you say Vader is not a villain cause he redeems himself at the end of Ep 6?

I was wondering if being the protagonist is at odds with being a villain. I guess they shouldn't be mutually exclusive, but the common trope is that the villain is the antagonist.

Being a villain and being the protagonist at the same time is actually possible and happens quite often in media. It even has its own trope:

Alex is unambiguously a villain. Travis Bickle I would agree with, he's very disturbed and decidedly not a hero despite saving Iris, but definitely not a traditional villain. But I don't know how you could watch A Clockwork Orange and come away thinking Alex is anything but villainous.

You see, if you were actually paying attention you would've known that Ken was actually the hero of the Barbie movie and Barbie was the villain. Ugh, media literacy is at an all time low these days. You ought to be ashamed of yourself.

Golly, please explain the themes of the Barbie movie, Mr. Man. We all need a big strong alpha male to explain it to us.

Neither Travis Bickle, Jack Torrance, Patrick Bateman, Regan (I guess unless it's the devil in that pic), Alex DeLarge, or, arguably, Ken are villains.

That's not to say their characters aren't bad people (or dolls). But they aren't the villain, and certainly not the antagonist, of those stories.

Villain: a character whose evil actions are important to the plot.

A villain doesn’t have to be the antagonist. A villain in a story just has to do bad things. Like chasing his family around with an axe, trying to assassinate a politician, chasing people with an axe while listening to Huey Lewis, purposely forcing a societal group to become submissive (even if it was in retaliation for previous submissiveness), or drinking milk as the leader of a gang.

It woulda been cool to have a picture of the Overlook Hotel as the "villain" of the Shining, but I suppose that's more something from the book, in the movie Jack is kinda wacko from the start.
