After the end of \u201cIron Man\u201d where Tony Stark is confronted by Nick Fury about the Avenger Program, here we are about to enter in to the iconic \u201cInfinite Gauntlet.\u201d We fans spent years just hoping for a good Captain America movie, now we\u2019re here optimistically awaiting their third battle for the fate of Earth. While the MCU villains get a bad rap I think they all brought something to the table. Here are five of my absolute favorites from the entire library.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><strong>5. Yellow Jacket<br \/>\n<\/strong><strong>Ant Man<br \/>\n<\/strong>One of the more vicious of the Marvel Villains, Yellow Jacket is like Brundle, and Doctor Frankenstein, a man willing to do whatever it takes to prove his brilliance and become the prot\u00e9g\u00e9 to Hank Pym. When he finally does become mad, he uses his suit to confront Scott Lang, and goes so far as to put his daughter in harm\u2019s way Yellow Jacket was a truly evil menace, and one who earned his fate.<\/p>\n<p><strong>4. Obad\u2019iah Stane\/Iron Monger<br \/>\n<\/strong><strong>Iron Man<br \/>\n<\/strong>Stane is one of my favorite of the MCU villains and an underrated one to boot. He\u2019s so jealous by Stark\u2019s designs that he begins taking decides to start taking Stark\u2019s own plans and using them for his selfish gains. Stark\u2019s discovery of his underhanded business. Stane is a business man who placed violence over peace, and that\u2019s when Iron Man steps in.<\/p>\n<p><strong>3. Loki<br \/>\n<\/strong><strong>Thor 1, 2 and 3<br \/>\n<\/strong>One of Thor\u2019s most iconic villains becomes one of the most dynamic cinematic villains, as he takes his qualities from the page and brings it on screen without problems. He witty, clever, slick and always has a trick up his sleeve. Not even the failed attempt to get the inifinity gauntlet deterred his effort so tdominate universe and bring the dreaded weapon in his possession, he\u2019s taken over the thrown in Asgad, Over matched\u00a0 Is it a wonder he\u2019s been in most of the MCU movies since \u201cThor\u201d in 2011<\/p>\n<p><strong>2. <\/strong><strong>Eric Killmonger<br \/>\n<\/strong><strong>Black Panther<br \/>\n<\/strong>Some of the best villains of all time don\u2019t consider themselves villains at all and that\u2019s who I think Killmonger. At the end of the day he\u2019s a victim of circumstances and these filled him with a searing hatred that would sere immensely defeating T\u2019Challa and becoming a cunning villain. Too long as T\u2019Challa ignored the cries of his people and the world, in whjere he rises up and manages to take throne from under him and uses it as a means of showing the world that T\u2019Challa can rise up and prove themselves. When events unfold, it\u2019s tough to disagree with the villain and even empathize with him. It\u2019s an important role that he&#8217;s willing to take on if only to make what is a surprisingly valid point.<\/p>\n<p><strong>1.<\/strong><strong> Alexander Pierce<br \/>\nCaptain America: Civil War<br \/>\n<\/strong>While he\u2019s often left out of the best of lists, Pierce is one of the best of the marvel villains gallery, because he signifies the loss of liberty and order in America. Pierce belongs to an America so shaken by terrorism that they\u2019re willing to trade basic freedoms for the illusion of safety. And what\u2019s worse is that with his organization HYDRA, he\u2019s managed to rise to power uncontested and begin rebuilding the country in HYDRA\u2019s image. A clever flip of the coin from the man Robert Redford played in \u201c3 Days of the Condor,\u201d Pierce is able to bring down SHIELD in one fell swoop, nearly murder Nick Fury, side swipe Black Widow, and even shake Captain America to his core by framing him as a terrorist and bringing back a ghost from his past. Pierce is so deeply rooted in the system, that he\u2019d be impossible to beat at least for a few films.<\/p>\n<p><center><iframe loading=\"lazy\" style=\"width: 120px; height: 240px;\" src=\"\/\/ws-na.amazon-adsystem.com\/widgets\/q?ServiceVersion=20070822&amp;OneJS=1&amp;Operation=GetAdHtml&amp;MarketPlace=US&amp;source=ac&amp;ref=qf_sp_asin_til&amp;ad_type=product_link&amp;tracking_id=thebalconymov-20&amp;marketplace=amazon&amp;region=US&amp;placement=B075YLXYMS&amp;asins=B075YLXYMS&amp;linkId=d63dbc47641bde9e8a1f2522849d4092&amp;show_border=false&amp;link_opens_in_new_window=false&amp;price_color=ba7900&amp;title_color=00549f&amp;bg_color=ffffff\" width=\"300\" height=\"150\" frameborder=\"0\" marginwidth=\"0\" marginheight=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\"><br \/>\n<\/iframe><\/center><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It\u2019s all been leading up to this!
