[QUOTE=Arfguy;4597356]As a villain, I love Vincent from Collateral. Tom Cruise just makes Vincent entirely too cool not to love. There are so many quotes from the movie that I don't know which one is my favourite. I'll post two that I got from IMDb:[/QUOTE]
IMO, [I]Collateral[/I] is a deeply underrated gem.

[QUOTE=j9ac9k;4607015]"President? ... Do you know how much power I'd have to[I] give up[/I] to be President?" -- Lex Luthor[/QUOTE]
One of Lex's best lines in the Cadmus arc of Justice League Unlimited.
"That's right, conspiracy buff. I spent $75 million on a fake Presidential campaign just to tick Superman off."
I think that line illustrates really well just how epic and yet how petty a villain Lex Luthor can be.

"Don't be so gloomy. After all it's not that awful. You know what the fellow said – in Italy, for thirty years under the Borgias, they had warfare, terror, murder and bloodshed, but they produced Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci and the Renaissance. In Switzerland, they had brotherly love, they had five hundred years of democracy and peace – and what did that produce? The cuckoo clock."

Having not had the pleasure of watching Titans, I hear Deathstroke's line in Ron Perlman's voice from the 2003 cartoon. Chills up and down my spine. That said, I am a sucker for villains making "your self-righteous indignation is B.S." speeches to the heroes that actually have some semblance of a good point.

Not sure if you would actually call [I]All In The Family's[/I] Archie Bunker a villain but he did cause a lot of grief for those around him. One of my favorite Archie Bunker classics:
Gloria: Daddy, did you know last year in this country over 65% of all murders were caused by guns
Archie: Would it make you feel any better, Little Girl, if they wuz pushed out of windows?
