6. The Wicked Witch from The Wizard of Oz:

7. Roy Batty from Blade Runner:

Warner Bros.

—whereegosdare84

8. Squidward from SpongeBob SquarePants:

"Javert's unwavering belief in upholding the law is the driving force behind his actions throughout the entirety of the movie. In Javert's eyes, Jean Valjean is a criminal for breaking his parole and it is his duty to bring all criminals to justice. I can get on board with that."
