Evil Gloating/Quotes

Future!Shego: Well Kimmie, it's been real. Erase them from history!
Future!Drakken: What?! No taunting?! No "how did I do it" speech?! Oh, poor supervillain form, Shego!

Future!Shego: Ya think?

Future!Drakken: Most definitely. What's the point in ruling the world if you don't stop to smell the roses?

—Kim Possible

I see. You're one of those boring maniacs who's going to gloat, hmmm? Are you going to tell me your plan for running the universe?

—The Doctor, Doctor Who, The Robots of Death (for the record, the villain is actually going to burn out his brain. Very, very slowly.)

Phantom Limb: The lair of the Phantom. Behind these modest walls lies the most technologically advanced system of controlled evil in existence. (Gripping orchestral music starts playing) You, sir, are sitting smack dab in the middle of location B for the Guild of Calamitous Intent!!! (Music ends abruptly)
Brock: You like doing that, don't you?

Phantom Limb: Oh yes, next to the 'Behold-A-Giant-Walking-Death-Ray' speech, the 'Welcome-To-Hell' speech is my favourite.

"Somehow, I manage to find cover and what does Baron von Ruthless do? He starts monologuing! He starts like, this prepared speech about how feeble I am compared to him, how inevitable my defeat is, how the world will soon be his, yada, yada, yada, I mean, the guy has me on a platter and he won't shut up!"

—Frozone, The Incredibles

Waiting for him to continue, Bond took the measure of his enemy. He knew what would be coming--justification.It was always so. When they thought they had got you where they wanted you, when they knew they were decisively on top, before the knock-out, even to an audience on the threshold of extinction, it was pleasant, reassuring to the executioner, to deliver his apologia -- purge the sin he was about to commit.

—Ian Fleming's You Only Live Twice

If you have to look along the shaft of an arrow from the wrong end, if a man has you entirely at his mercy, then hope like hell that man is an evil man. Because the evil like power, power over people, and they want to see you in fear. They want you to know you're going to die. So they'll talk. They'll gloat. They'll watch you squirm. They'll put off the moment of murder like another man will put off a good cigar. So hope like hell your captor is an evil man. A good man will kill you with hardly a word.

—Terry Pratchett, Men At Arms

Villains, they always want to talk you to death.

Imagine the brain as a vast mansion with...oh, let's say a million rooms. A million locked doors and a million keyholes. And yet, how few of those rooms we ever enter. Until now. My psycho-chemicals have begun to open all of the locked doors in my head. I'm tapping the 90% of the brain we never use and it's giving me such...wonderful ideas. I've finally done it. The Justice League are mine. Their thoughts belong to the Key. And with their help, I shall open the doors onto a new universe! Oh, and make a note of an interesting side effect of my expanding consciousness. I can't stop talking to myself.

—--The Key, JLA #8
