Because of not only the air of classiness, but they seem intellectually superior enough to be diabolically clever enough to be a worthy adversary. You just don't get the same feel is you bad guys are Joe Bob and Cletus.

Dude, there are a number of accents interior the flicks that are categorised as undesirable adult males alongside with individuals i.e. purple necks, Southerners commonly, Northerners and so on. no longer in basic terms the English. do a splash extra analyze. you will see they are not singling out the English.

well historically speaking the English have aggressively conquered many native peoples over the centuries and America did fight a war to rid us of the yoke of tyranny, so it's easy to see England as the bad guy ( i don't myself, but most do)

I think it adds a sinister touch of elegance to keep them from being a common thug. Kind of gives them a proper air, even as they do the unspeakable ghastly acts like Silence of the Lambs.
I don't think it's that they hate the English as they envy their classiness.

Hmm, I guess you are right. I mean English people are always bad guys. Hmmm, wait a minute, what about James, James something. Maybe you haven't heard of him. Oh yeah, that's right James BOND!
