AYRT Oh I never mind bad guys who are evil for the sake of evil. Bill Cipher from Gravity Falls is a fantastic example too. Sometimes you just want someone who's pure evil. And sometimes it's perfectly fine to slap on the Saturday Morning Cartoon 'I want to take over the world/I want money and power/I want to destroy everything' on a villain and you don't need an explanation.

And then it's also cool when someone can show you the backstory and show you the path that led someone down and you can see their opportunities they had to make the right choice and didn't take. This is also the hardest to pull off since it's easy to end up with a jumbled confusing mess that was Anakin in the prequels (I saw a good review once that it mainly fell flat because it couldn't decide if he fell because of his love for Padme, his anger at the Order, or because he was secretly evil all along and it was hard to reconcile the guy who murders women and children with a guy who's supposedly too in love with his wife. So you couldn't decide if he was a tragic figure, a justified rebel, or a scumbag)

Hahahah, don't bring up Anakin, I've spent gallons of digital ink talking about him already. :)
