For me, it would be GLaDOS.
Portal 2 spoiler
She deleted the one remaining human part of herself because it was just too much to deal with. She releases you at the end of Portal 2 as a path of least resistance measure because “killing you is hard.”
What about you, what is your favorite media villain?
An old one, but the Emperor from Gladiator. His death is among the most satisfying in movie history. Absolutely amazing performance by Joaquin Phoenix.
Abijah Fowler from Blue Eye Samurai, one of the only four white men in Japan who might be the father of the protagonist. He’s one of the few who manage to challenge the protagonist in combat, but you’re not just watching for that. The dialogue for the show is top notch, but any time he comes up you know you’re in for a treat. My favorite is still “Are you–still alive? Why?”, but here’s a reasonably spoiler-free scene.
Ketheric Thorm from Baldurs Gate 3. He has one of the coolest character introductions ever. Honestly I felt kind of bad for him learning his story. Also JK Simmons is one of my favorite actors.
“Try again” axe drop
I’ve always been fond of Magneto. He’s a dick about it, but I see where he’s coming from.
Hex and Daemon from Reboot are both underrated. Hex has genius visual design for the limitations of the technology. And for a kids show, Daemon is very likable, which always makes a villain more compelling.
Joe Morden in Babylon 5. I do not know much about the actor, but he was cast perfectly.
Biff Tannen, because we should have seen the signs.
Might be more of a monster than a villain, but I’ve loved the Disney version of the headless horseman since I was a kid. That laugh still gives me chills
what is this from???
I’d guess it’s a fan edit of a videogame cutscene or one of the SW animated shows, slapping Jar Jar’s face on some other character. I haven’t heard of Darth Jar Jar showing up in media in any other than the vague hints dropped in canon or in easter eggs.
ahh yeah, i know the meme but this looks more than just slapping Jar Jar’s face on it. Maybe the original version is from a video game, because I don’t recognize the jedi from being in any of the animated shows
Oh, it’s you. It’s been a looong time; how have you been? I’ve been really busy being DEAD. You know? After you murdered me? Look, we both said a lot of things you’re going to regret, but I think we can put our differences behind us. For science. You monster.
I find… we’ll just say “the villain” of Undertale compelling, but it’s one of my favorite games so I’m a little biased.
Idk who my all time favorite is, but I just finished rewatching Clone Wars and man I had forgotten how much I liked Hondo Ohnaka
Maul: “Filth! You will pay for your insolence!”
Hondo: “Insolence?! We are pirates! We don’t even know what that means.”
also the line right before this when Hondo says “who are these horny headed maniacs”
They should hijack a library
The Nameless One. From PS:T.
A very practical person!
Here are the test results: You’re a horrible person. That’s what it says. A horrible person. We weren’t even testing for that.
