Movies and TV

Master of Mean is not a single character, but rather a frequently used epithet often given to villains or antagonists in movies and television. No single character definitively holds the title, making it a descriptor rather than a specific persona.

The term "Master of Mean" implies a character possessing exceptional cruelty, malice, and a talent for inflicting misery upon others. Such characters are typically driven by selfish desires, a lust for power, or a deep-seated hatred. Their actions often create conflict and drive the narrative forward.

Examples of characters who might be considered "Masters of Mean" due to their actions and personalities include Darth Vader from Star Wars, Dolores Umbridge from Harry Potter, and Joffrey Baratheon from Game of Thrones. While these characters are widely recognized for their villainy, none are exclusively or officially named "Master of Mean." The title remains an abstract, descriptive label.
