Favorite Villain Lines

[Weealzabob]

"I believe in something better than myself. A world without sin." The Operative from Serenity.

"I am Loki of Asgard, and I am burdened with glorious purpose." Loki from The Avengers. Also his rant at Black Widow is fantastic.

"The greater good." Hot Fuzz.

"Our so-called leaders prostituted us to the West... destroyed our culture... our economies... our honor. Our blood has been spilled on our soil. My blood... on their hands. They are the invaders. All U.S. and British forces will leave Russia immediately... or suffer the consequences." Imran Zakhaev, Call of Duty 4.

"I will burn the heart out of you." Moriarty from Sherlock.

Those are some of my favorites that hadn't been posted.

 

[Idsertian]

The only thing immediately springing to mind is this whole conversation:

Spoiler: MASSIVE spoiler for the first Mass Effect

"Human. You have changed nothing. That which you know as Reapers are your salvation through destruction."

Harbinger.
Fucking. Awesome.

Harbinger was good. Sovereign was better.

Also this:

 

[TheLion]

"Remember, the first and only reality of the Sith. There can only be two, and you are no longer my apprentice." - Darth Sidious.

"I will miss you Altair, you were my very best student."- Al Mualim

"Your body submits, your heart succumbs, so why does your mind resist?!" - Ansem, The Seeker of Darkness

"Preen and strut as you like, in the end we are the same: blood-thirsting carrion birds, hell-bent for revenge" - Gabranth

"When you play the game of thrones, you win or you die; there is no middle ground" - Cersei Lannister

"Dropped my guard, what are you talking about? This is what you call composure!" - Shishio

"Trial of humanity; the defense rests" - Sensui

 

[wrightguy0]

Tomorrow, and tomorrow, and tomorrow,
Creeps in this petty pace from day to day,
To the last syllable of recorded time;
And all our yesterdays have lighted fools
The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle!
Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage
And then is heard no more. It is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury
Signifying nothing. ? Macbeth

Shakespeare has created some great villains who's speeches stay with you and haunt you long after the players have bowed and the curtain has fallen, one of my favorites is the tomorrow soliloquy from act 5 scene 5 of Macbeth, it is especially chilling when delivered by a great actor, like Patrick Stewart http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HZnaXDRwu84

 

[The Great JT]

It's questionable wether or not he qualifies as a villain, but...

"Of all the creatures in the vastness of the Universe, there is none like me. I was present at the birth of the Universe, and I shall be there at its end. Though I ravage worlds to live, I bear no malice toward any living thing. I simply do what I must to survive. And why must Galactus survive? For, no matter how many worlds I devour ... How many civilizations I destroy ... It is my destiny to one day give back to the Universe - Infinitely more than I have ever taken from it. So speaks Galactus!"
-Galactus

 

[RobDaBank]

Do you feel in charge?

But I gave you a small fortune!

And this gives you power over me? - Bane is GOD!!

 

[Skillswords]

A few spoilers

"When i die, bring me back as a penguin, i love penguins" - King of night-Kore Wa Zombie Desu Ka
"If Yuki becomes friends with her... then yuki might fall in love with her... I'VE GOT TO KILL HER" Yuno - Mirai Nikki (she's a villain protagonist)
"And if da enemy takez da ground from underneath ya feet, YA TAKE IT ROIGHT BAK!" -Random gretchin, Warhammer 40,000

"behold, my form of 800 years ago, MY MOST POWERFUL FORM! [dies]" - mr mosquito - soul eater

[UniversalRonin]

'I hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate you.' (Kefka- FFVI)

'Son of Jorel; Kneel before Zod.' (Zod- Superman 2.)

'Every fairy tale needs a good old-fashioned villain. You need me or you're nothing. Because we're just alike, you and I, except you're boring. You're on the side of the angels.' (Moriarty- Sherlock BBC series)

And finally-
'Do you know how much power I'd have to give up to be president?' (Lex Luthor- JLU Cartoons I forget which episode.)

In other slightly unrelated news:

Spoiler: Maybe the most hilarious crime in history

 

[James Joseph Emerald]

"I'm not a comic book villain. Do you seriously think I would explain my master stroke to you if there were even the slightest possibility you could affect the outcome?" Ozymandias, Watchmen.

"Wanna know how I got these scars?" Joker, The Dark Knight.

"When I said "deadly neurotoxin," the "deadly" was in massive sarcasm quotes. I could take a bath in this stuff. Put in on cereal, rub it right into my eyes. Honestly, it's not deadly at all... to *me.* You, on the other hand, are going to find its deadliness... a lot less funny." GLaDOS, Portal.

"I've seen things you people wouldn't believe. Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion. I watched C-beams glitter in the dark near the Tannhauser gate. All those moments will be lost in time... like tears in rain... Time to die." Roy Batty, Blade Runner.

"After that my guess is that you will never hear from him again. The greatest trick the devil ever pulled was convincing the world he did not exist. And like that... he is gone." Verbal Kent, The Usual Suspects.

"I hate warriors, too narrow-minded. I'll tell you what I do like though: a killer, a dyed-in-the-wool killer. Cold blooded, clean, methodical and thorough. Now a real killer, when he picked up the ZF-1, would've immediately asked about the little red button on the bottom of the gun." Zorg, The Fifth Element.

"Did I ever tell you about the definition of insanity?" Vaas, Far Cry 3.

Wow, 6/7 of those lines were already said. Talk about ninja'd.


Anyway, I'd say this is probably my favourite "evil speech":

 

[kouriichi]

"Laugh, and grow fat."

~Fatman

Most powerful line ive ever heard. Stuck with me ever since.

 

[Malty Milk Whistle]

"I warned you not to trust me" - Littlefinger
"Do me a favour and DIE" - Handsome Jack
"One murder makes a villain, a million makes a hero" - not too sure who said that...

 

[Lawbringer]

"If you will not fight, then you will meet your destiny"
-Darth Vader, Return of the Jedi, whilst trying to kill his own son, who does not wish to hurt him.

"The thing is...I agree with everything you just said. But...unfortunately...you killed my mother..."
-Magneto, Xmen First Class, just before he

Spoiler: spoilered in case you haven't seen it

executes his lifelong nemesis in a rather gruesome fashion

"Betrayer. In truth it was I who was betrayed. Still I am hunted. Still I am hated. Now my blind eyes see what others cannot. That sometimes the hand of fate must be forced!"
and
"Imprisoned for ten thousand years. Banished from my own homeland. And now you dare enter my realm? You are not prepared..."
-Illidan (of Warcraft fame) monologue-ing

 

[templar1138a]

But yes. Kreia. God was she amazing. I don't know if I'd call her a villain persey.. but eh whatever

That's why I call her an anti-villain. If an anti-hero is someone who does good deeds for the wrong reasons, then an anti-villain is someone who does bad ones for the right reasons. After all, Kreia wished to end the suffering caused by the Force.

 

[ManaAdvent]

Pretty much EVERYTHING in The Major's war speech in Hellsing Ultimate OVA 4:

 

[Kikyoo]

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vBUZSk2b8Vk "PERISH!" Angelus Drakengard

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vr_LR8vcL3w "Never forgive! Never Forgive!" Angelus Darkengard

"You can't comprehend it? Death is like that, and from here till the end of this battle, there won't be a single thing your mind can comprehend." Baraggan Louisenbairn

"REVENGE! The King under the moutain is dead and where are his kin that dare seek revenge? Girion Lord of Dale is dead, and I have eaten his people like a wolf among sheep, and where are his sons' sons that dare approach me? I kill where I wish and non dare resist. I laid low the warriors of old and their like is not in the world today. Then I was but young and tender. Now I am old and Strong, strong, strong, Theif in the shadows! My armor is like tenfold shields, my teeth are swords, my claws spears, the shock of my tail a thunderbolt, my wings a hurricane, and my breath DEATH!" - Smaug Dragon of the lonely mountain.

 

[Alfred Chicken]

"If God were a villain, he'd be me".
Benedict (Charles Dance) from Last Action Hero

 

[shadyh8er]

One of the best versions of "come at me bro" I've ever heard:

"If you wish to take my life, I suggest you make a lot of money and come buy it from me." - Chouji Suitengu from Speed Grapher.

 

[shadyh8er]

It's not really a line, but just this whole song from Frollo in the Hunchback of Notre Dame. I feel like Disney took a huge risk in using this much religious imagery and sexual conflict together, but they really just hit it out of the park. There's nothing held back, it's honest and turbulent and at some points nearly terrifying.

HA! I almost posted this myself. One of my life dreams to sing the opening latin parts in a European cathedral just because.

 

[theparsonski]

"I don't feel I have to wipe everyone out Tom. Just my enemies." - Michael Corleone (The Godfather Part II)

"Perhaps I can find new ways to motivate them." - Darth Vader (Star Wars: Episode VI)

"Human beings are a disease, a cancer of this planet. You're a plague, and we are the cure." - Agent Smith (The Matrix)

"That depends. Do you see me?" - Anton Chigurh (No Country for Old Men)

"Who would have thought one so small could endure so much pain?" - The Mouth of Sauron (TLotR: Return of the King)

 

[Blunderboy]

"THAT'S A BINGO!"

or

"whats that N**** doing on a hoarse!?" <-or somthing to that effect

Both amazing. Damn Ninja's. (That's the word you starred out right?)

Mine is from one of the best book series ever.


The man in black smiled. "Shall we tell the truth then, you and I? No more lies?"

"I thought we had been."

But the man in black persisted as if Roland hadn't spoken. "Shall there be truth between us, as two men? Not as friends, but as equals? There is an offer you will get rarely, Roland. Only equals speak the truth, that's my thought on't. Friends and lovers lie endlessly, caught in the web of regard. How tiresome!?
&#8213; Stephen King, The Gunslinger
