* [[Franchise/StarWars Any villain form the Star Wars movies.]] They are epic, ruthless, cruel, and yet so effective. And let's not forget the fact that they have both [[Creator/Christopher Lee Dracula's]]and [[Creator/James Earl Jones Mufassa's]] actor.

* [[TheDragon Wild Dog]], from ''VideoGame/TimeCrisis''. He's probably one of the most [[ImplacableMan indestrucible]] villains of all time. He has his battle against the VSSE in every game, and whenever he's defeated, he blows himself up. But that's also a hint that he'll be back right away. He also has a [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AfZCbaMjIg8 very awesome]] {{Leitmotif}}.

* I've got two words right here; [[KingdomHearts Master Xehanort]]. Good ''Lord'', Master Xehanort! He's been everything from (Presumably) TheAce to (Definitely) a BadassGrandpa. His actions have shaped the entire fate of the World(Read; universe) for over the last ten years, permenately reshaping it. His existence has split into [[TheHeartless several]] [[BetaTestBaddie others]], each one just as threatening and formidable as the last. The greatest bit of it all? Every event, every action taken by himself or his Heartless and/or Nobody is interconnected. It's all one giant plot, and it's ''working''. Xehanort and [[{{WesternAnimation/Gargoyles}} Xanatos]] should be tied for [[XanatosGambit the Tropes]] [[XanatosSpeedChess they live.]]

** The ''nicer'' ones :
*** Regina may not even count as a villain since she was ForcedIntoEvil, but there's something so touching in her unwavering faith in Daniel and her other father's memory, and in her love for them. She is also a loving, responsible mother, one of the funniest DeadpanSnarker on the show, and her determined but illogical frantic assaults against all obstacles are very inspiring. She also has an awesome theme : [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i7wNETgv1W8&list=PL36B927B010400F3F&index=3]].
**** She's the ''evil'' queen, so she definitely counts as a villain. And she simply revels in being such!
*** Then there is Mr Gold, the charmingly funny AffablyEvil MagnificentBastard who plays everyone like he would a fiddle. His name is actually Rumplestiltskin, and he does everything he does to find and save his son.
** The harsher ones :

** So we've got fairy tale villains like [[SnowWhite The Evil Queen]], {{Rumpelstiltskin}}, [[PeterPan Captain Hook]], and [[AliceInWonderland the Queen of Hearts.]] Who is the worst of the worst? The ultimate in despicable yet awe-inspiring evilness? ''PeterPan.''

* Albedo! From the video game ''Xenosaga'', this guy is insane... ''FREAKING'' insane!!! The fact that he can regenerate his limbs, that ''slithery'' voice of his [[hottip:*: Provided by Creator/CrispinFreeman.]], his cool E.S named Simeon... Everything about this guy is just COOL!!!

* ''OnceUponATime'' main villains/antagonists are ''awesome'':

* Freddy Krueger is most DEFINETLY one of the best horror villains out there! His monstorous, amusing, smart and DeadpanSnarker personality REALLY works well! I also like his glove! It's too bad he had to go through VillainDecay though...
* [[JeepersCreepers THE CREEPER!!!]] Omigosh, where do I START with this guy?! He has an awesome truck, awesome humor, awesome wings, awesome attitude... he practically OOZES awesomeness!!!
* Jason Voorhees from Franchise/FridayThe13th is also rather awesome, namely for his sympathetic backstory.
* Chernabog from the Night on Bald Mountain sequence of Disney/{{Fantasia}}, for this troper at least, is the perfect personification of evil in the animated medium. He never utters a single line, yet has instilled fear into many tropers and is considered one of Disney's greatest villains. Torturing his own minions for his amusement, summoning the spirits of the dead to dance for him, and being driven back only by the ringing of holy bells and the approaching dawn (And even then, only temporarily), Chernabog was evil itself in its most frightening form.

* OnceUponATime main villains/antagonists are ''awesome'':

* T-bag from {{PrisonBreak}}. He's a nasty piece of work: a sociopathic sexual predator and a paedophile. But when you find out his back story, you can't help but feel sorry for that poor little boy. Which makes you hate him more, because you feel sorry for him! Great acting on the part of Robert Knepper.

* Can anyone say [[MassEffect "Sovereign?"]] It's one of the largest ships in the entire galaxy, and it has firepower to match; of course it just settles for ramming straight into enemy fleets, [[RammingAlwaysWorks WHICH WORKS.]] Even when it is defeated, it takes an ENTIRE FLEET and [[PlayerCharacter Commander Shepard's]] crew to put it down. And even then, it [[TakingYouWithMe brings down multiple Alliance Ships with it.]] [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m28gY9Vw7XA It even has ominous music to go with it.]]

* I've got two words right here; [[KingdomHearts Master Xehanort]]. Good ''Lord'', Master Xehanort! He's been everything from (Presumably) TheAce to (Definately) a BadassGrandpa. His actions have shaped the entire fate of the World(Read; universe) for over the last ten years, permenately reshaping it. His existence has split into [[TheHeartless several]] [[BetaTestBaddie others]], each one just as threatening and formidable as the last. The greatest bit of it all? Every event, every action taken by himself or his Heartless and/or Nobody is interconnected. It's all one giant plot, and it's ''working''. Xehanort and [[{{Gargoyles}} Xanatos]] should be tied for [[XanatosGambit the Tropes]] [[XanatosSpeedChess they live.]]

* [[Theatre/{{Othello}} Iago.]] The greatest MagnificentBastard ''ever''. At the start of the play, he is passed over for a promotion (and, like all great villains, he knows his own worth). He responds by manipulating ''every other character in the play'' in order to destroy Othello. And succeeds.

They can be [[CompleteMonster monstorous,]] [[SympathyForTheDevil sympathetic,]] [[WellIntentionedExtremist may mean well, but become villains because of their good intentions,]] and may be even [[JerkAssWoobie woobies!]]

*** Captain Hook is the ultimate deconstruction of HandsomeDevil. He is charming, polite, and does everything he does to get revenge after a horrible crime. He has no standards, he is lecherous, disrespectful, his fights have frequent rape subtext, and he subverts WouldNotHit a girl twice an episode.
*** Cora is a nice, beautiful, motherly woman who appears to be in her late fifties, early sixties. She's also a StageMom of hell who kills anyone if it can better her social standing, including children, is ReallySevenHundredYears, is awfully cynical, and was a StageMom. She is deeply sympathetic because she still loves her daughter more than anything.
