Line 113:
* A somewhat...[[Narm|jarring]] variant in the first [[Spider-Man]] film where the Green Goblin makes Aunt May finish the Lord's Prayer.
{{quote|'''Aunt May:''' "Deliver us..."
'''Green Goblin:''' *Dramatic entrance* [[Evil Is Hammy|"FINISH IT!!"]] <br />
'''Aunt May:''' "From EEEVIL!" }}
* Ratigan of ''[[The Great Mouse Detective]]'' is no [[Harmless Villain]], but in the spirit of Shakespearean villains, he loves boasting about how good he is at being bad.
Line 141:
{{quote|You're all a bunch of assholes, you know why? You don't have the guts to be what you want to be. You need people like me! You need people like me so you can point your fucking fingers and say 'That's the bad guy!' What that make you? Good? You're not good. You just know how to hide. How to lie. Me? I don't have that problem. Me, I always tell the truth. Even when I lie. So say goodnight to the bad guy!}}
* Jean-Baptiste Emanuel Zorg from ''[[The Fifth Element]]'' is a great example, though he tries to justify this behavior by claiming that life comes from chaos and, therefore, destruction actually creates and improves life.
{{quote|'''Vito Cornelius:''' [[You Monster!|You're a monster, Zorg]].<br />
'''Zorg:''' *Smirking* I know. }}
* Bowler Hat Guy from ''[[Meet the Robinsons]]'' aspires to be one of these. He's [[Ineffectual Sympathetic Villain|not very good]] [[Hilarity Ensues|at it]].
Line 423:
* Evil Blah in ''[[The Demented Cartoon Movie]]''.
* Marik in ''[[Yu-Gi-Oh!: The Abridged Series|Yu-Gi-Oh the Abridged Series]]'' has this tendency. Ironically, he is one of the ''least'' evil characters.
{{quote|'''Bakura''': Why do we even need the [[Duels Decide Everything|card game]] at all? Why can't we just push him off the boat?<br />
'''Marik''': No! The card game is essential to the plot! [[Evil Is Hammy|The EVIL plot!]] }}
* Vegeta in season 1 of [[Dragonball Z Abridged]]:
Line 522:
* [[The Rival|Captain Zero]] from ''[[TUGS]]'' - he's not so much outright evil as sort of [[Honest John's Dealership|a shyster]], but it's touched on in the first episode.
{{quote|'''Captain Zero:''' You're a team! The best, the better-looking, more powerful, and, dare I say? More devious!
'''[[Minion with an F In Evil|Zip]]:''' What is devious?<br />
'''Captain Zero:''' What's devious is what's necessary to make an honest living in these days of corruption and bad business ethics!<br />
'''Zip:''' ...Oh. }}
* In ''[[Thundercats 2011|ThunderCats (2011)]]'' This is [[Invoked]] in a very literal sense, as [[Big Bad]] [[Sorcerous Overlord]] Mumm-Ra must [[By the Power of Grayskull|call upon]] "Ancient Spirits of Evil" to grant him access to his [[One-Winged Angel]] Form.
