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?
Gul Dukat was the better villain in my eyes. At least he was way more interesting than Kai Winn.
My vote as well.
He constantly finds the piece of humanity within whoever hes talking to and then tries to manipulate it.
Its hard to top Gul Dukat.
They’re both excellent at being different kinds of evil.
Winn is prideful and ambitious above all else. She sides with good and evil both at different times in service to her own goals. She deludes herself into believing anything that pursuit of personal power is also what serves Bajor.
Winn commits evil in service to her ambitions.
Dukat has the same vices, but with added elements of narcissism and wrath. He briefly tries being good, and almost reaches it when he finds genuine love for and from his daughter, but when his actions lead to her death he lashes out at the universe and becomes entirely consumed by wrath and megalomania.
Dukat’s ambition in the end is to commit evil.
The great thing about Dukat is that he frequently finds his own humanity. You keep thinking that this time he’ll do the right thing and start his path to redemption, but he never does. He always chooses to do the wrong thing even though there’s clearly good in him and you’re always disappointed and even surprised when it happens. He’s like the anti-Zuko.
Dear pesky plumbers…
It’s been ages I saw a ytp and I never was quite the fan, but this right there is a fucking masterpiece.
I was about to just check it and ended up watching the whole thing.
“Attention bajoran workers! My wife left me” had me wheezing.
Sexcellent
The Quark “Nice Cock” poster almost made me ruin my monitor with water.
I think the counter to that is that:
Tap for spoiler
they completely dropped the ball with her toward the end of the show. She went from, I think, a great allegory for a religious radical right wing capitalizing off her people’s suffering but in a way she could genuinely warp her beliefs into thinking was for the greater good…
… to, I mean, come on… Having her go totally crazed with power and disavowing the Prophets wasn’t the problem; it’s that it was stupid, egregiously paced, totally unearned MacGuffin power without grounded stakes that only served to make an already-rushed resolution to the show feel even more rushed.
The Goat. Simply evil.
No, the guy she was boning was.
