So I personally have a lot of these and I'd love to see any of yours. The ones that got away.
Basically, just any female villain who you found really attractive and you wished they would've gotten comeuppance in the form of mess but sadly didn't. (A guilty pleasure of mine is writing/reading fanfic where they do)
edit: I don't know why some of the links are linked but some aren't but the link can still be copied and pasted
My list: (aka the characters who helped me realize I'm gay and as you'll see I have such a type, it's painful)
Lara Pulver in the majority of her roles, she often plays villain roles but my favorites:
Isabella of Gisborne from BBC's Robin Hood http://images6.fanpop.com/image/polls/1630000/1630773_1495499873408_full.jpg (Although she did get wetlook: )">
Semira from Underworld: Blood Wars https://www.denofgeek.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/01/lara_pulver_underworld_interview.jpg?fit=1292%2C840
Clarice Kensington from It Takes Two https://vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/movie-villains/images/2/29/Clarice.jpg/revision/latest/scale-to-width-down/340?cb=20171229165808
Meredith Blake from Parent Trap (who also had wetlook) https://img.buzzfeed.com/buzzfeed-static/static/2018-06/16/17/campaign_images/buzzfeed-prod-web-06/meredith-blake-from-the-parent-trap-just-tweeted--2-20314-1529184914-4_dblbig.jpg
Baroness Schraeder from The Sound of Music https://victorianvaluesblog.files.wordpress.com/2018/02/150226111121-10-sound-of-music-super-169.png?w=660
Petra Solano from Jane the Virgin https://i.pinimg.com/originals/03/72/b6/0372b614bff4ebac4d376f85ecc37433.jpg
Xenia Onatopp from Goldeneye https://vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/movie-villains/images/f/f3/Xenia_onatopp-wide.jpg/revision/latest?cb=20170925185419
Natalie from Home Alone 4 (which I'm still salty about, every other female villain in the home alone series has gotten some kind of mess and Kevin knew how awful Natalie was so it's unfair that she was spared. like yeah sure she wasn't a thief but she was threatening him and being a bitch to him, his dad and her staff) https://vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/homealone/images/8/89/20180710_134301.jpg/revision/latest/top-crop/width/220/height/220?cb=20181220210142
Honestly there's a whole bunch more but these are the ones that first come to mind. I would've loved to see any of these characters fall in mud, get cake or pie to the face, bucket of slime poured over their heads, like really anything.
Kinda realized theres not many female villains in movies ive seen recently. I do agree that having the character deserve the mess makes the payoff so much greater.
What a fascinating topic! I'm sure there are loads of sexy female villains that I've wished a messy comeuppance upon, but the only one that is springing to mind at the moment is....
Laura Jackson from "The Beverly Hillbillies" https://vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/beverlyhillbillies/images/0/03/Laura_being_scold_by_Elly_May.png/revision/latest?cb=20180921183956&format=original (She gets pushed backwards into a wedding cake - always wished she'd been pushed face-first)
scroggle said: Is Daenerys Targaryen a villianess?
SPOILER ALERT
She deliberately killed hundreds of innocent people to satisfy her own rage. And then gave a speech Hitler-style saying that she planned on doing it again and again. So yes, she is the villain.

SPOILER SPOILER ALERT: For roughly 71 episodes she was the hero. Then with 2 episodes left, she made a complete 180 heel turn, thanks to some of the worst writing in the history of "prestige television." And POOF! She was the villain!
Much like [SPOILER ALERT] Euron's boat that took out her dragon, this plot development appeared out of nowhere and made no sense. But hey! It still won a ton of Emmys because.... Seasons 1-4 were really really good??
But yeah, hit Emilia Clarke with a whole bunch of pies. I'm down.
Wrong. From the very first season she talked about levelling cities and taking back what she thought was hers. She threatened anyone who opposed her continuously.
The story arc is totally consistent, it's just many people decided to support the beautiful blonde girl whilst setting aside her quite obvious character flaws.
Okay, this next one is stretching things a bit, but actress Anna Camp plays a sort of "frenemy" in The Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt and I believe is also something like a villainess (or at least an antagonistic rival) in Pitch Perfect, although I have never seen the movie, so that's based on a two or three sentence summary of the movie I read somewhere. (Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong, anyone.) Anyway, she may look rather wholesome in some of these pics, but she plays the snooty too-perfect beauty really well on Kimmy Schmidt, and I for one would love to see her on the receiving end of some creamy comeuppance when she's in that role!
On the HBO series "Togetherness," scheming bitch Anna gets pushed into her own swimming pool while wearing an evening gown and high heels, in full view of a hundred party guests. Great scene, but I wish it had been a mud bath or a giant cake...

What makes that one extra fun for me is that Katie Aselton, the actress who plays Anna, is the wife of the show's creator and co-star Mark Duplass. Fun to imagine the conversations in their house concerning that scene. "I can't believe you're making me get pushed into a pool!" "Well, your character is a huge bitch and deserves it!" "Yeah but YOU wrote her as a bitch and now I have to pay for it," "You're just lucky I didn't have her push you in a giant cake," "I'm going to get you back for this, when you least expect it," etc. (I know, I know: Wishful Thinking Central.)
Also the character who pushes Katie in the pool is Mark's character's wife on the show, played by actress Melanie Lynskey, so Melanie and Mark have a lot of intimate scenes together, including some very awkward sex scenes. So the fact that Melanie is the one pushing Katie into the pool (however deservedly) probably adds a little extra frisson as well. (Probably much more in my own fevered imagination than real life; these are all very professional actors, after all.)
Below are a couple pics of Katie as a brunette, which is an even better look for her, IMO.
Ugh, the Killing Eve show apparently passed up its best opportunity to work in some pie throwing. But of course Villanelle makes for one sexy clown! (I don't yet have access to the brand new season 3, so please no spoilers!)
