    After the top 10 it's pretty difficult to rank the rest of the big baddies, as for me they range from being forgettable at best to plain horrible at worst.
    So instead I compiled one top ten for the main villains and another one for the main henchmen.

    Main Villain
    1. Dr. Julius No
    2. Auric Goldfinger
    3. Ernst Stavro Blofeld
    4. Francisco Scaramanga
    5. Dr. Kananga/Mr Big
    6. Emilio Largo
    7. Franz Sanchez
    8. Rosa Klebb
    9. Hugo Drax
    10. Max Zorin

    Top Hench(wo)man
    1. Red Grant
    2. Oddjob
    3. Tee-Hee
    4. Fiona Volpe
    5. Irma Bunt
    6. Mr. Wint & Mr. Kidd
    7. Jaws (TSWLM)
    8. Necros
    9. Nick Nack
    10. Professor Dent

    Waltz is definitely born blofeld. Agreed there!
    A Hans Landa type performance in NTTD would be great

    Main Villain
    1. Dr. Julius No
    It has quite an impact that Dr. No is invisible for the major part of DN, but I would have wished for more screen time for the fantastic J. Wiseman.

    Right. I already know I don't like Safin, so I'm really glad Waltz's Blofeld is there, too. Especially the potential prospect of having some degree of cooperation between Bond and Blofeld could make for quite an exciting plot.

    ?? What ?? You've seen, what, 20 seconds of footage with him? If that?

    Yes, after those 10 or 20 seconds I'm quite sure I can safely say I don't like him. His plot may be great though.

    Nice to see appreciation for Koskov and Whitaker; I had a hard time not including them into my Top 10.

    Dr. No (DN)
    Goldfinger (GF)
    Le Chiffre (CR)
    Silva (SF)
    Sanchez (LTK)

    Blofeld (YOLT)
    Blofeld (OHMSS)
    Scaramanga (TMWTGG)
    Trevelyan (GE)
    Kananga (LALD)

    Rosa Klebb (FRWL)
    Kamal (OP)
    Largo (TB)
    Zorin (AVTAK)
    Drax (MR)

    Safin (NTTD)
    Stromberg (TSWLM)
    Elektra (TWINE)
    Greene (QOS)
    Carver (TND)

    Blofeld (SP)
    Koskov/Whitaker (TLD)
    Graves (DAD)
    Kristatos (FYEO)
    Blofeld (DAF)

    With NTTD's release, I'm putting Safin at 16. Malek did a great job; if it were solely about acting performance, he could be top 10. But he received limited screentime and the writers didn't flesh out his motives.
