Their latest is the &#8216;Top 50 Most Vile Movie Villains,&#8217; and sure enough, many classic villains are well represented. \u00a0Among the top 50, only one Tolkien &#8216;<em>villain<\/em>&#8216; makes the list at No. 10:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><em>He may only be a CGI character, but the conflicted, bipolar Gollum managed to be both cute\u00a0and\u00a0scary \u2014 a feat we hadn&#8217;t seen accomplished since\u00a0Gremlins. Love him or hate him, you can&#8217;t deny that his tendency to break out into cheerful song in between ruthlessly chasing the ring of power was, well, precious. Plus, he bit off Frodo&#8217;s fingers. And that&#8217;s pretty bad-ass. \u2014Kate Ward<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>This reporter never really saw Gollum as a &#8216;villain&#8217; per se, but hey, to each their own!
