So who are the best actors at playing the frequently recurring asshole. Sometimes they're the villain, or a henchman, but always an asshole in the movies. People like William Atherton, Christopher McDonald and, to a lesser extent, Bradley Whitford. Also the guy who just popped up on Carnivale and was in Wayne's World. I had a pretty comprehensive list going but I lost it. Help me out here.

i know the title is somewhat misleading, but it's still better than "best movie dicks"

Aside from Atherton, I think THIS GUY wins

No picture, but I think you know him from the Breakfast Club

And the dude who played Johnny in Karate Kid surely qualifies here.

I would say Gary Oldman (for Air Force One, Fifth Element, and Leon/The Professional), but he's not exactly a character actor.

James Spader.

He has that asshole quality about him in most films I believe. And often not on purpose.
