Matt Smith on Twitter and Villains

[ericadawn16]

Matt Smith was asked who his favorite villain was...



I never thought of Pinky as a villain or even the Brain. When I told my mom, she was confused as well. Pinky was more...stupid or at the very least...misguided.

Perhaps there was a British version of the cartoon where Pinky was evil?
...that's I just, ... who knows.

I think he got his cartoons mixed up somehow, perhaps.

Oh, Matt, you're adorable, but that's a weaksauce answer.

I don't see how Pinky could be considered evil--I thought the Brain (Brain, Brain...) was the one obsessed with taking over the world. Pinky was just...comic relief?

either he confused Pinky with the Brain or he's weirder than he seems ...

The only thing I can think of is that he didn't want to make his friends upset by having to choose between them...since Loki would be a logical choice for one...so he came up with the first name he could think of that wouldn't upset anyone.

I don't know if I would say villain or anti-hero. But either way, he always managed to stop the Brain's plans for world domination with his stupidity! :)

I totally see Pinky as a villain! Taking over the world, I think, falls into villain territory.

I always though Brain was more of the villain. He was always the one who came up with the plots. Pinky was just the lackey who helped him along.

Though honestly there are a lot better villains, ones who have plans that wreck the worlds.

Yeah, the only think I could figure was that he didn't want to single out a friend for best villain in case the other friends got hurt.
