Top 10 bullies of Movies and TV

Since Halloween is just around the corner, I want to focus on mostly scary stuff. And you know what's scarier than zombies, vampires of werewolves? Bullies. Monsters that are extremely scary because unlike Dracula, these beast exist. they've been here since the beginning, and they'll continue to be here until the end of time. And just like the creepy ghost stories of the past, they've inspired equally intimidating characters seen in movies and TV. Sometimes they're funny, and sometimes they're just downright unpleasant. Here are the top 10 characters I consider the best bullies in movies and TV.

10. ANGELICA PICKLES (RUGRATS)


Talk about a misleading name! This little demon is far from Angelic. Angelica is the six year old cousin of Tommy Pickles. When the grown ups are watching, she plays the sweet, innocent darling. But when she's alone with the babies, she shows her true colors. A mean, bossy, conniving spoiled brat who treats her cousin and the rest of his baby friends like slaves. And if she wasn't creepy enough,  her only friend was her barbie doll that she mutilated. She's gonna grow up a sociopath.

9. MARIANNE BRYANT (EASY A)



All Olive Penderghast wanted to do was get her nosy best friend out of her hair, so she spun a tale about how she lost her V card to a guy that doesn't even exist. Little does she know that Super religious Marianne Bryant heard the whole thing, and told everyone on campus, turning Olive into the new school slut. Just because you love Jesus, doesn't mean you're not a douche. 

8. BIFF TATTEN (BACK TO THE FUTURE)


Bill Tatten is one of the two "Stereotypical" bullies I put in this list. He's the typical one sided bully character who's been bullying Marty McFly for a long time. And what's even more amazing is that his Bullying transcends through time. There's a Biff in the 80's, there's a Biff in the 50's, there'a a biff in the cowboy era, there's even a Biff in 2015. The worst kind of Biff is a Biff with a Twitter account.

7. DRACO MALFOY (HARRY POTTER)


Hissss! there's nothing I hate more than a Snake. Draco is young Wizard who belongs to house Slytherin at Hogwarts School of Magic.He's rich, arrogant, spiteful, and very prejudicial against muggles and mud bloods. He's jealous of Harry and all the attention he gets. He's slightly creepy and possibly mentally unstable. Hermoine punching him on the face is the best thing ever.


Hell Yeah!!

6. JOFFREY BARATHEON (GAME OF THRONES)


There's a fine line between being a bully, and being a villain. Joffrey is both of these things. This little prick is the sadistic incest baby of Cersei Lannister and her Brother. Aside from being a compassionless sociopath, Joffrey is just very mean. I really, really hate him, and every time something bad happens to him, I always feel joy.

5. JOHNNY LAWRENCE (KARATE KID)


Johnny is the other "Stereotypical" bully on this list. He's a jerk and he doesn't apologize for it. He does these very despicable things to Daniel (Ralph Macchio) but for some twisted reason, I could never get mad at him. Yes, he's a jerk, but I just don't hate him as much as I hate Malfoy and Joffrey. Maybe it's because he's really hot. Before I even watched The Karate Kid, There was this poster at a cousin's house of shirtless William Zebka that made me question my sexual orientation, I mean just...


You can't tell right now, but I just came.

4. CHENG (THE KARATE KID)


In the remake of the Karate Kid, instead of getting the typical 80's bully, we get Cheng. a scary Chinese kid who shows no mercy to Dre (Jayden Smith). Unlike Johnny, who is just the run of the mill bully, Cheng is a fucking monster! Just the look in his eyes are enough to make you piss yourself. Good thing I live far away from China, because then I'm far away from kids like Cheng. 

3. REGINA GEORGE (MEAN GIRLS)


How do I even begin to explain Regina George? She's the Queen Bee of North Shore high. She's rich, hot and a total bitch. She runs a clique of the most popular girls in North Shore known as "The Plastics". Regina walks up to you and compliments your clothes and features Oh my god. I love your skirt. Where did you get it?, and then trash you when you're not looking That is the ugliest effing skirt I've ever seen. And then she goes home and writes it down on her Burn Book, which is a recolored sketchbook in which she cuts out a picture of a girl from the yearbook, tapes it onto a Burn Book page and writes a mean comment about that girl. And when all tables are turned on Regina, she makes xerox copies of the pages and throws them all over the school, causing all the female students to fight one another.

2. CHRIS HARGENSEN (CARRIE 2013)



Why should blondes get to have all the fun? In this remake of the 70's hit, This Brunette proves that she can be just as mean as the blonde girls. If making fun of a poor girl's period wasn't bad enough, she takes her misdeeds a step further by orchestrating a prank involving Prom and a lot of Pig's blood.

1. ALISON DILAURENTIS (PRETTY LITTLE LIARS)



What's worse than a Queen Bee who talks smack about you behind your back? A Queen Bee that talks smack to your face. Before her "death", this girl bullied everyone, ranging from nerds to B-listers to People who were way older than her and even her own friends. Instead of talking about you when you weren't there, she talked about you and wanted you to here it.




Her bullying was so bad, that her victims still want revenge years later. And it's also her fault that the "A" was born. While Alison has become a nicer person in later episodes, She will always be the Bitchiest of them all to me.

MY JUSTICE LEAGUE MOVIE DREAMCAST




I already know that a Justice League movie is being made, right after that Batman V Superman, which will be the death of me. But What if the Justice League movie was how I wanted it?And by that, I mean as far away from Zack Snyder and this shitty DC Cinematic Universe as possible. The actors would be totally different. Henry Cavill is not my Superman, so I would give him the Kryptonite boot. And I don't know who Ben Affleck is kidding. I would pick him up with my two hands, break his back with my knee, and throw him in the same grave I'm gonna bury Henry Cavill. And Gal Gadot? I don't even want to start on that one. If I was to cast the Justice League for a DC Cinematic Universe done right, Here'show it would look like, and here's how they would act like. Here's who I think should play the core Justice League members.

SUPERMAN: IAN HARDING


Henry Cavill's Superman is basically written as an all powerful god being to be worshiped or feared, and I do not like that. That's not Superman! That's how Batman fans see Superman! Why would Superman have an alter ego if he wanted to be worshiped? Because he doesn't! So in my Justice League movie, Kal-El would be far from Henry Cavill's Superman. He's not a god, he's not a Jesus allegory, he's not the guy who wants to be worshiped, he's the guy who helps those who can't defend themselves, because it's his responsibility. and that's why I chose Ian Harding. Ian is basically a softer version of Henry Cavill. He could either be the guy who flies through Metropolis, or the guy you'd see on the street. And every time I picture a live action Superman that isn't Christopher Reeve, I always end up seeing Ian for some reason. I used to not like him character on PLL (How dare you brake Aria's heart?!?!), but recently, I'm starting to like him more and more. 

BATMAN: MATT BOMER


Batman is a tricky one. He's been done so many times, I can't even figure him out, but when you get to the core of Batman, he's a broken person seeking Justice he'll never resolve. He's basically reverse Superman. Superman was born from hope, and Batman was born from despair. If we're going for an older Batman, I'd choose Joel Edgerton, but if we're going for a younger Batman, I'd go with Matt Bomer. Matt Bomer would be a great Bruce Wayne. He definitely looks like it. Matt didn't get the role of Superman in Man Of Steel because he was gay, so let's give him the second best thing. 

WONDER WOMAN: JAMIE ALEXANDER


Everybody wanted Jamie Alexander to play Wonder Woman, and so did I. I mean, just look at her! She looks like friggin Wonder Woman! And her role as Lady Sif in the Thor movies only made people want her to play Wonder Woman even more. I'm sure Gal Gadot will do her best as Wonder Woman, but let's face it. She does not look like Wonder Woman. She's far too skinny. She would make a better Lois Lane than a Wonder Woman. 

GREEN LANTERN: MICHAEL B. JORDAN


I would've cast a Hal Jordan, but he burned up his luck with that awful 2011 movie. So I went with John Stewart, a fairly underrated Green Lantern (probably because he's black!) I picked Michael B. Jordan of Fantastic 4 fame. Michael l would make a great John Stewart because John is the tough, serious guy who'd make a good one-liner once in a while, and if you watched Friday Night Lights, that's exactly what he played. 

AQUAMAN: ARMIE HAMMER

Aquaman, king of the seas, butt of every superhero joke, powerful sea sorcerer. Who should play him? Well, if things went my way, I would cast Armie Hammer. An actor who was on the rise to fame,,,until he starred in The Lone Ranger. Anyways, I would cast Armie Hammer because I don't care about Armie Hammer, and I also don't care about Aquaman. Who's next?

THE FLASH: RYAN GOSLING




For The Flash/Barry Allen, I chose Ryan Gosling. The Flash is both handsome, but weird and fast talking, and I've seen enough Ryan Gosling movies to see these traits. Originally, I chose Alex Pettyfer, but then I realized Alex was too bland to play a high spirited character like The Flash.

So that was the main Characters. But heroes are only as good as the people who support them. Let's take a look at the Heroes' supporting cast.

LOIS LANE: KATE MARA



Ah, Lois. The strong, independent Journalist(that always needs Superman to save her) As much as I love Amy Adams (Enchanted is my all time favorite movie of hers) her take on Superman's ally and love interest comes across as less Lois Lane, and more Mary Jane. She's only there to support Superman, and that's not Lois. Lois is a cynical character who only supports herself. So who should play her? Originally, for this part, I chose Ellen Page, but then I went back because I realized that she looks 14, so I pushed for someone who looked older, So my choice would be Kate Mara. Lois is a journalist known for being sassy, snarky and wanting things to go her way. Kate has played a headstrong reported on House of Cards, and a very sassy(albeit mentally unstable) character in American Horror Story. So Kate would make a great Lois Lane.

NIGHTWING: LOGAN LERMAN



Why Nightwing and not Robin? Because Nightwing is awesome, and Robin is, um...not so much. I mean, in a serious superhero movie, why would there be a child dressed as a Christmas Elf following Batman around? So I went with Nightwing, who is basically Robin who has had it with Batman's shit and became a bad-ass superhero. So who should play Nightwing? My choice is Logan Lerman. Logan has recently had a rise to fame, with movies like Fury and Perks Of Being A Wallflower. He'd make a perfect Nightwing because Nightwing is a very young Superhero. He had just recently ditched Batman and the "sidekick" title of Robin to be his own awesome superhero. So basically, a boy turning into a man. Logan's character in Fury is a very similar role. Now, I know he might be a little skinny for the role, but if Chris Pratt can go from a fat guy to a muscly guy, then Logan can go from string bean to Ripped guy who wears spandex so tight, you can see his luscious booty.

Now what would a hero be without a villain? A person in a ridiculous outfit. Here's the dreamcast villains for my Justice League

DOOMSDAY: ANDY SERKIS



In this age, Practical effects are nearly nonexistent. so if you're going to do CG, do it right. I'd cast doomsday as a mo-cap Andy Serkis, because there is no one better at mo-cap than Andy Serkis.

Pretty Little Liars Movie fan casting



With Pretty little Liars closing in on it's final season, I thought about the possibility of a Pretty Little Liars movie. As much as I would love it to be an extension of the TV show, these women cannot keep playing High School girls. So if there was a PLL movie, it would have to be an reboot/adaptation of the books by Sara Shepard. And we'd also need a new director. Sorry, Marlene, but you have to go too.

DIRECTOR: SOFIA COPPOLA



Sofia Coppola is a great choice for a director. PLL is a teenaged girl driven story, so who better to direct than the director of The Virgin Suicides and The Bling Ring. 


Now that we have a Director, who should star in it? Here's my choices.

SPENCER HASTINGS/OLIVIA HOLT


Spencer is the youngest daughter of the Hastings family. She's hardworking and very much an overachiever, winning many academic awards and prizes in her prep school Rosewood Day. Despite this, it seems like Spencer can't ever escape the shadow of her smarter, more perfect older sister, Melissa. I chose Olivia because she just looks right fro the role. And many of her roles in the Disney Channel is a smart, overachieving character.

HANNA MARIN/ARIEL WINTER


Hanna is the current "It" girl at Rosewood Day. She's beautiful, graceful and perfect in every way, but appearances can be very deceiving, because Hanna actually has a lot of problems. Back in 7th grade, she used to be the chubby girl of the group. often feeling ugly compared to her thin friends, Hanna convinced herself to throw up, gaining an eating disorder. Ariel Winter would be the perfect choice for Hanna, because she's incredibly beautiful, busty and can play both loser girl and it girl.

ARIA MONTGOMERY/JODELLE FERLAND


Aria Montgomery is the female Holden Caulfield. She is a free thinker, and does not want to conform to "Typical Rosewood" life, despite being best friends with Alison Dilaurentis, the most popular girl in all of Rosewood. After spending three years in Iceland, Aria moves back to Rosewood, still haunted by her missing friend, Ali. I picked Jodelle Ferland because of her physical resemblance to the book character, and her fashion choices in real life is something Aria probably would wear. 

EMILY FIELDS/SOPHIE TURNER


Emily is the sporty girl of her Clique. She is the champion swimmer of Rosewood Day. Even though she comes from a very conservative family, she hides the fact that she is actually a lesbian, and was in love with her missing BFF Alison Dilaurentis. later, she meets Maya St. Germane, a new girl who Emily develops feelings for. Sophie Turner would be a great choice for many reasons. She looks like Emily, she is god at playing dainty girls with hidden secrets, and being in a show like Game of Thrones, there is probably nothing she can't handle.

ALISON DILAURENTIS/ELLE FANNING


The queen of mean herself. Ali was the most popular girl in all of Rosewood Day, up until she was murdered. She was beautiful and graceful, but also conniving and evil. She played cruel mind games with her BFFS, and showed no remorse to the people she victimized. For this role, I chose Elle Fanning, because if anyone is gong to play Queen Ali D, it's going to be a well known movie actress. 

Now that we've cast the leading ladies, it's time to cast the supporting cast, A.K.A, the people who could be A. 

MONA VANDERWAAL/SARAH HYLAND


Mona is Hanna's current best friend. She was once a nerdy loser, but unlike Hanna, Ali was not her friend, and would constantly torment poor Mona. Three years later, Mona and Hanna are now the "It" girls of Rosewood day. Sarah Hyland would be a perfect choice, because Mona is very bitchy in the books, and Sarah is good at playing Bitchy characters.

MELISSA HASTINGS/ MARGOT ROBBIE



Melissa is Spencer's smarter, more beautiful older sister. Whatever Spencer has accomplished, Melissa has already done it twice as good. Spencer is very envious of Melissa. For Melissa, I chose Margot Robbie, just because I'm starting to become a fan of hers, and she's also got that elegant grace to her that's very Melissa Hastings.

EZRA FITZ/ALEX PETTYFER



Ezra is the AP English teacher at Rosewood Day. He and Aria make out in a bar after she returns from Iceland, not realizing that Ezra is her new English teacher. Alex Pettyfer would be an interesting cast, because just like Ezra, he's in that age where he's not a boy, but not quite a man yet.

DR. WREN KIM/KI HONG LEE




Wren is Melissa's boyfriend. He is of Asian descent, but was raised in England. The Hastings family takes a liking to Wren, Spencer especially. Ki Hong Lee of Maze Runner fame is probably who I would cast as Wren.

DARREN WILDEN/SCOTT EASTWOOD



Darren Wilden is the detective in charge of the Alison Dilaurentis murder case. He begins dating Ashley Marin, Hanna's Mother, in exchange for not charging Hanna with theft. For this part, I'd have to go with Scott Eastwood

MAYA ST. GERMANE/ZENDAYA



Maya St. Germane is the new girl in town. She moves into the old Dilaurentis house three years after the disappearance of Alison Dilaurentis. She becomes close with Emily Fields, and the two develop feelings for each other. For this role, I'd have to go with Zendaya.

JENNA CAVANAUGH/CIARA BRAVO



Jenna is the stepsister of Toby Cavanaugh. She's pretty, but not very popular. She is deathly terrified of her older stepbrother.  She was blinded in a "Freak accident" and has since dropped out of Rosewood Day, and enrolled in a school for the blind in Pennsylvania. I'd cast Ciara Bravo as Jenna.

TOBY CAVANAUGH/NICK ROBINSON



Toby is the older stepbrother of Jenna Cavanaugh. He is considered a freak in the Rosewood community, and is rightfully so. Toby scares many people, his stepsister Jenna included. For this part, I'd go with Nick Robinson.

ASHLEY MARIN/JULIA ROBERTS




Ashley is the mother of Hanna Marin. When Hanna was in seventh grade, Her husband tom left her and their daughter to fend for their own. They thrived without him, and are way more wealthier than before. She loves her daughter, though sometimes can seem neglectful. I'd cast Julia Roberts.

SEAN ACKARD/JIMMY PINCHACK



Hanna's boyfriend in Book 1. Hanna has had a crush on this guy since seventh grade, back when she was fat and pimply. Hanna becomes very disappointed when she finds out that Sean is saving his V card until marriage. For this part, I'd choose Jimmy Pinchak.

NOEL KAHN/LUKE BILYK



Noel Kahn is Aria's main love interest in the books. He is popular, handsome, athletic, and the last guy anyone expected to end up with Aria. Aria was the female Holden Caulfield. Free spirited and original, and he was a "Typical Rosewood Boy" or at least in her eyes. But somehow, they became the "It" couple of the book series. I'd cast Luke Bilyk.

So this is what I've got so far for the hypothetical Pretty Little Liars movie. Hopefully one does get made.
