If I were to play a role on a story (movie, video game, anime...), I'd preferably play a villain, especially if said villain was the big bad and very hammy.

He certainly fits the bill of a hammy villain, so I wouldn't mind.So, in other words
I said VILLAIN, not anti-hero.
I mean, more like this:

Shadow the Hedgehog...why does that name haunt me?
Oh right, because spent five grueling hours playing that game.

You can do it!
I don't really like watching movies. I can't sit still and I have trouble paying attention. I have to take frequent breaks as well so while watching it with someone would probably make it easier, it would probably be annoying for them.
This is also the main reason I can't get into anime, but at the same time anime is much more convenient to watch, so I can still watch an anime from time to time. I wish I could watch more though.
As for my role in a movie, I would be either the comic relief, or the cute anime character that everyone adores. :3

Shadow could be a villain, you'd have to had played his game to know why though.He certainly fits the bill of a hammy villain, so I wouldn't mind.

Regardless, here's another suggestion.

**** getting the Last Story segment in Shadow the Hedgehog.
I don't care what anyone says, that is the most bull**** thing in the entire franchise!
You don't have to play his game to figure out that he is somewhat of a total A-Hole.
I played one level of that game with my brother. After we beat the first level we took to disc onto our driveway and ran it over with my car. CURSE YOU SHADOW! MAY YOU NEVER STAR IN ANOTHER GAME EVER AGAIN!

You are probably one of the most mature individuals that I have ever met, GG.

I'm terrible with these Custom Titles.
If I were to star in a movie, I'd most likely be the phychotic, insane, comic-relief villain.
PsychoIncarnate
The Eternal Will of the Swarm
I wouldn't call Avatar a decent movie
psst.. I'm just trying to make Cliff Jumper mad
Morbi
Scavenger
As a background character that is un-credited, perhaps?
Out of curiosity, which Avatar are you talking about, Cameron's or Shyamalan's?
Not sure if you're calling it awful, or fantastic? (-.-)

Why would I torture myself playing Shadow the Hedgehog? I mean, I have the game, but I've only played it once for a few hours and never touched it again.
Besides, Shadow isn't a good villain. He lacks oomph.
For me, the ideal villain is one that actually accomplishes stuff and manages to defeat the heroes at least once. One that is really evil, drunk with power, intelligent, manipulative, cunning, destructive and willing to do anything to achieve his goals no matter the cost.
Do tell me, how is a movie that makes money inherently good?
Just because something is popular, it doesn't mean it's good.
Morbi
Scavenger
Of course, is it not second all-time grossing? However, that does not magically make it a decent movie.
PsychoIncarnate
The Eternal Will of the Swarm
Oh, so now how good something is is completely determined by how much money it makes?
Justin Bieber sells millions of CDs. Does that make him a good artist?
Morbi
Scavenger
Under certain circumstances that tends to be the case.

Shadow the hedgehog had an nice concept. The ability to choose your path and the gunplay were clever ideas, but it still feel flat.
While the ability to choose your path sounds good, the missions you had to do that weren't the normal routes were long and tedious. The lack of a radar system didn't help either. The gunplay was decent enough, but some weapons didn't lock on to enemies so you were force to manually aim at the enemies with floaty and slippery controls.
The environments were also bland and sometimes even reused. However, one thing I will disagree on is that how people think the music is bad. There were plenty of great tunes like Lava shelter, Cosmic Fall, and the main theme.
Making Shadow dark wasn't the problem...sure it was kinda silly, but it could've actually worked if they actually put more time into each feature.
If there were better controls, shorter missions, a radar system, better controlled weapons, better environments, and more diverse bosses, this could've actually been a great game. Maybe not amazing, but still great.

Funny that after I just discussed about certain characters being "villains" or not in another thread, that Shadow gets brought up here erroneously as a villain.
He's an anti-hero. No ifs ands or buts.
Started as a villain (against his control), made a Heel-Face Turn, "died", became an amnesiac anti-hero, then dropped the amnesiac part.

Most certainly, Justin Beiber is one of the predominant reasons that I listen to ANY pop music. I would assert that he is a good artist, not necessarily based on his sales, of course.
That's an Ok comparison I guess?
Because you know a couple million cd's definitely compares to a Multi-Billion grossing movie that knocked Titanic out of the #1 seat.
Might I also note that both movies are directed by Cameron?

Did you at least find the computer room?

Palpatine is still one of the best villains ever.
I have no idea of who's Megatron, but I assume it's the guy on the image you posted.
Eh.. bad example on my part. I guess it's different opinions. The point I was attempting to get across was that popularity and quality are two different things.
Morbi
Scavenger
I am not certain if you are aware; however, anti-heroes have the capacity to be antagonists. "Antagonist" is synonymous with "villain" as the definition is not entirely absolute.

He didn't even find that DAMN fourth Chaos Emerald.
You expect him to have found the computer room?
So what you're saying is.....
....Batman's a villain.
Got it.

Using popularity as a means to measure quality has always been a fallacious argument. There has never been any correlation between popularity and quality.
Though some things become popular because they are good, but there's a lot of popular stuff that is mediocre at best.
There are stories with villainous protagonists (and often also having a heroic antagonist). A good example is the manga/anime Death Note.

Antagonist isn't necessary a villain. Antagonist is the one who opposes the protagonist. A villain is an evil character.
