English: A stereotypical caricature of a villain (i.e. generic melodrama villain stock character, with handlebar moustache and black top-hat). (Photo credit: Wikipedia)
There are people who will probably say that a villain who misses an obvious flaw in their plan, doing something unnecessary that ruins their work, is a disappointment and makes them less of a villain. And that’s why I like it. I like dumb villains, even the smart ones who do dumb things. Cracked contributors Rohan Ramakrishnan and Aatif Zubair (thank you copy/paste) looks at 5 such movies—The Dark Knight Rises, Terminator 2, Tangled, Sleepy Hollow, and The Rock–where one minor, unnecessary flaw, ruined their entire plan.
