MCU: Every Infinity Saga Villain RANKED

15. Guardians Of The Galaxy - Ronan The Accuser

Guardians of the Galaxy will certainly be remembered as one of the more fun MCU films with its colorful characters, whimsical dialogue and awesome soundtrack.

A feel-good movie overall, the antagonist who in a film with a talking raccoon and a tree giant was never going to match up.

That's not to say Ronan The Accuser was a bad villain; in fact he adds a great contrast to the cosmic motley crew we follow throughout the film. Ronan is a dangerous tyrant with some truly malicious intentions and he definitely marks the transition the MCU takes into SUPER-villainy.

He's immortal to every weapon the Guardians throw at him, and in the scenes where we see his personality he is certainly unique.

The scene in which he outright threatens Thanos shouldn't be disregarded, but what makes him really unique is his reaction to Peter Quill's proposal to end their fight with a dance-off.

His confusion is not only funny, but absolutely in character to who he is. He's a merciless world-ending force of evil, and the confused look on Lee Pace as he sees Chris Pratt strut and sing reminds us that there are unpredictable weak spots to all MCU baddies.

I overthink a lot of things. Will talk about pretty much anything for a great length of time. I'm obsessed with General Slocum from the 2002 Spider-Man film. I have questions that were never answered in that entire trilogy!
