They look sinister, but you definitely can't peg them as evil right off the bat. I definitely don't see any Matrimony, either.

Got a better suggestion? Otherwise I suggest they stay.

Keep Until Better Image Suggested

Man, I found some very visually decriptive screen caps of Lord Zedd and Rita Repulsa, but the image quality on all of them is very bad. :\

The current image looks decent to me.

You've got Beard of Evil, Evil Is Stylish, Sensible Heroes, Skimpy Villains, and Good Colors, Evil Colors.

If there's one where the villains are more Obviously Evil, that would be good.

Stay. I may be the last person on earth who hasn't watched the Venture Brothers, but they look very villain-ish to me. Yes, that's a word now.

[up] You're not.

I think the image is fine. And besides, people aren't going to see the name "Unholy Matrimony", look at the picture, and assume that both the trope and image are about good guys falling in love.

I'd like to see these pictures anyway. Who knows, they might turn out to be better anyway despite the image quality.

Alright, some of my Zedd/Rita faves, and also a different Dr. Mrs. The Monarch and The Monarch pic. The couple is not as obvs evil, but Dr. Killenger back there is, and it has blatant matrimony.

[up][up] Okay, that third one is pretty much perfect, if we can get a sharper version.

11.4 is muchmuchmuchmuch better. You see "evil" because of the mook thing in the background and you see matrimony because... well... they're getting married.

11.4 would be much better if it wasn't so grainy. Isn't there a better version we could use?

I would like a clearer version of 11.3; if we were going to have a wedding, I'd want it to be a clearly "evil" twist on a wedding, at which point it might confuse people into thinking the trope is about weddings.

Although "this isn't about weddings" is a good point. Fits the name way better than the description.

v I like that a lot.

[up] Those aren't bad, but after reading the trope description again, I'm starting to swing back toward keeping the current, with the rest going to an Image Links page.

The suggestions aren't bad, but I see no reason to pull the current.

The current is just a male villain and a female villain in the same picture. There is very little suggesting anything about romance. The wedding one is much better, it shows Unholy and it shows Matrimony.

And here the confusion begins. Remember the trope is not about a marriage but a relationship. Related terms, but not synonymous.

The trope is not about matrimonies. That said, this image looks like they are disagreeing with each other, not like a join.
