Line 17:
[[Tropes Are Not Good]]; the Complete Monster can sometimes be indicative of lazy writing. A villain with no redeeming qualities can be viewed as exceedingly simplistic.
 
This trope is, surprisingly, not entirely subjective. A recurring evil character either has redeeming qualities, presented as such within the moral framework of the story, or notthey don't. The Complete Monster may be a [[Magnificent Bastard]] or a [[Draco in Leather Pants]] --to some audience members, but the completeness of thetheir monstrosity does not depend on how well the characters or audience likesreceives himthem.
 
{{noreallife|calling other people completely irredeemable is rude at best. Calling ''yourself'' one implies either a lack of understanding of the trope or severe mental illness.}}
