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?
Sir Captain Becket of the E I C
Dart Maul (from a german movie called (T)Raumschiff Suprise)
Bill Cypher
The villains of the Kings Men
Hmm, a rather difficult question, I have quite a lot of them and I could not get attached to any of them, well, maybe him:
and him:
the swarm from stanisław lems “invincible” (not the invincible show, this is a completly unrelated sci fi novel) (also the swarm is not really a villian its more like defending its territory
absolutely!
Warhammer 40k has too many good options to list. The entire ork faction is great, although one of my personal favorites is Grizgutz, an ork who accidentally travelled back in time, and decided to kill himself to steal an extra copy of his favorite gun. The Necrons are also fun, for their unlimited capacity for arrogance and pettiness.
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”
As a super Dune nerd, Erasmus.
From DC: Larfleeze and Volthoom tied. Oh! The Anti-Monitor too.
From Supernatural (the TV series), Crowley is amazing.
BSG: Dr. Gaius Baltar.
the show did crowley dirty in last few seasons.
It has to be this way.
Oh man what is this? Something about this guy makes me automatically agree with you that he’s a great villain.
The senator from Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance

Time to watch that Videogame Dunkey explainer again
The dlc variant of him is insanely difficult
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.
The Nameless One. From PS:T.
A very practical person!
David Robert Jones.
There’s just something so classy about this guy, and he does the coolest stuff.
yessssss
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.
emm, actually, that’s from half life 2!
An old one, but the Emperor from Gladiator. His death is among the most satisfying in movie history. Absolutely amazing performance by Joaquin Phoenix.
I just watched gladiator to show the kid for the first time and for me it was the first time in 20 years, he was wonderful. I then watched “space camp” a few days ago which id never seen and Phoenix’s 11-year+old face jumped out of that.
Showing the kid “Sneakers” now, and the kid was blown away Phoenix had a brother (River) who was also an actor.
I’ve always been fond of Magneto. He’s a dick about it, but I see where he’s coming from.
