That final quote actually reminded me of a counter-quote that - in a lot of circumstances - actually shows the true motives of the villain's professed ideals. "The world you're speaking of will be kinder and gentler only for you!" - Lelouch vi Britannia, Code Geass. People that profess their desire to change the world for the benefit of all... they often times only really mean themselves, because they think everyone else is just like them.

[@OneBiasedOpinion]

This is such a good statement. People will hear villains speak and think that they’re maybe not all that wrong, because every villain that ever plays on a major stage (fictional or not) is a very intelligent individual with some ability to grasp truth. However those people miss the catch: villains are villainous because they found truth and then twisted it to better suit themselves. It just sounds plausible now because it’s coming to your ears from someone smart enough to hide the clever twists they put into that truth.

[@kreigthepsycho]

I mean, that's one of the foundations of being a "villain", isn't it? "My ideals matter more than everyone else". Said ideals may be in favor to the villain's own people, friends, loved ones, finding justice for past transgressions, etc. But in securing them, he forsakes everyone else. It honestly makes more sense to prioritize your own and live in your own victory than to save everyone else and die in the process.

[@JoshSweetvale]

But they aren't quite right. The joker misjudges people. And loses. Syndrome takes _everything_ personally. Even when there's other factors occupying Mr. Incredible. Josh Brolin himself said that Thanos's main problem is callousness. He has a big enough lever to move the world, so he's gonna prove himself _right._ Other Joker is literally delusional, and his decision to assert himself only leads to less control over his world. Veidt was wrong. Nuclear war wasn't inevitable. The Sovier Union fell. Voldemort wants a lever, like Thanos. But unlike Thanos he doesn't have anything to use it on, so he keeps trying to get bigger and bigger levers. Et cetera. However, Tai Lung is completely right. Oogway made a weapon, not a man.

[@jeremiahwise2076]

A real hero CAN identify with the villain. Someone who can't identify with the villain is likely too naive to fix the problems the villain is targeting. Someone who CAN identify with the villain has the ability to help fix what made them the way they are.

[@mr.meatsoup5639]

Its not even about identifying as a villain, its about understanding(not agreeing with) their motives. Many think of them as just evil, when they have their own "justified" reasons for doing what they do. Whether its right or wrong is up to you to decide and thats where morality, courage and sense of justice collide with selfishness, greed and cowardice. Sometimes inaction is cowardice in itself, and sometimes the hard/bad choices need to be made for the good of others. That is also why Batman is classified as a vigilante by Arkham City.

Cool video, had a lot of fun revisiting great movie quotes from classics! However, let's not pretend most of these villains aren't pure evil. Yes, they were dealt a bad hand, but the most inspiring stories are of those who were dealt that bad hand and made the best with it. Some of these quotes described our reality in a brutal and honest way, but most villains insert their motives and intentions in these otherwise truthful statements. Don't be fooled by the underlying falacies into worshiping villains. These villains weren't completely right (hell, some were completely wrong), but the dialogues they portrait make it seem like they are! That's not only fantastic writing by those who worked on these movies/series, but also a great demonstration of how easy it is to fool the masses by saying what they want to hear!

[@justralph97]

Completely agree. We have to remember that it's not just the villains that experience trauma which pushed them to do evil. Often times, heroes go through the same. A son of an alcoholic and abusive father can either turn into someone like his father, or someone completely opposite. Same circumstance, different outcomes. And both would say the same thing, "I am who I am because of my father".

You know what's insane about the Joker movie? People were actually trying to tear it down for being an "Incel" movie but it wasn't even remotely close to being that. You don't have to agree with the actions he took in order to understand what he means during his speech on the talk show. Almost everything he said (key word being almost) is absolutely true. Not objective, subjective, or whatever the fuck else you want to say. It's not just his truth it's ALL of our truths. Think about how pissed off you get when people with a higher station do shitty things and treat you like nothing. Think about what you think about doing to them. Also in his first quote he's talking about the common man and how our beliefs and way of life are enough for us to try and rip each others throats out both literally and figuratively. When you do that you don't think about what it's like to be the other guy (or whatever you are). You just look at things in black and white, even if you harp on not doing so as a false sense of "enlightenment", and expect people to either be good for understanding or agree with you, or a less than good, enough so to label them an enemy when they disagree. He doesn't say it in so many words but it's as simple as that. What I just described is how people lack empathy for each other, and end up treating Arthur (Joker) and people like him (or even not like him) in such a horrible way that they eventually snap. Suicide, murder, rape, you name it. I'm sure I'll get push back for that last one but I don't assume that those three examples I gave are limited to what I'm talking about, but still don't think they are exempt from being the result of people giving up on trying to be decent human beings because of how they are treated, and just deciding to take matters into their own hands. Oh and quite frankly, it is enough to make anybody crazy. Whether it takes root the way it did for the Joker, or if it takes root in those that ignore reality and bumble through life thinking the way things are is okay.

If you’ll watch closely, “people” (which are usually the influential and their online posses of followers) frequently rip into such media regardless of what form it takes. The powerful and wealthy know what kind of world they want, and they’ll do whatever they can to ensure those of us who aren’t on their leashes yet remain dormant and apathetic, unaware of the pot slowly coming to a boil around us.

[@therobustempyrean1436]

The whole "the Joker is an incel" but came.from the media, who was so high off of their own narrative at the time, especially in US politics, that they were terrified of having empathy for the other side. There's also the message that the media, even late night comedy shows, are just as responsible as politicians themselves when it comes to radicalization.

IKR! Villans are so underated they are poatrated as just pure evil but if you look in there at the end of the day were all people

[@CinnamonKnightEntertainment]

So many of your examples help to show something fundamental between a hero and a villain. Selfishness, or being self centered in their world view. The world is cruel and dark, submitting and taking that path to be like that is what makes a villian, not just a bad person. In a vast majority of these examples these people are using justifications. The things they tell themselves to make themselves feel better about what they are doing. From most dictators to plenty of serial killers you'll find twisted justifications for their actions, usually the sacrifice of others voluntary or otherwise, for their goals. Villians are the morter and brick that built this cruel world, some are just trying to change the architecture, but the building will be the same.

[@theyounggamer3315]

There is a difference between understanding others actions and excusing/justifying them. Understanding allows us to be more compassionate and work towards solving issues and preventing more people from being forced to make decisions that put others and themselves in danger. But excusing and justifying those decisions is to say it is ok to hurt others and it doesn't fix the issue or prevent more people from being hurt. The problem is that many people are so hurt by the current world that it's hard to feel hope. It's hard not to want to release the pent up pain and frustration. There are so many issues. And one solution may help some people, but in turn hurts another. Pain will always exist. Relief from pain is temporary for pain shows that we are alive. Your body will hurt because you exist and move or stand/sit still for too long or you help someone move something or you crochet or you do anything and your body will hurt one way or another. And there will always be emotional pain whether it's a small disappointment like losing a game or a big pain like losing a loved one. Pain helps us grow and evolve. And it's not perfect, nothing is perfect. But just some compassion and patience and the world can be a little bit better; fewer pushes into madness.

[@kristophermichaud4467]

There is a difference between a villain and an asshole, i like how this video reinforces that lesson

[@harveyilling6646]

What I've learned from villains, heroes, the things in between and my own life experience is that you need to face the darkside of yourself, the "evil" and learn to control it so that you can bear fangs (this link's to Sun Tzu's Art of war, specifically about knowing yourself and the enemy). This is to show that you are capable to be cruel but choose not to, which means that people won't walk all over you. It's why nice guys finish last, and why such a thing as "too nice" exists, as people will take advantage of that and will walk all over you, taking from you until there is nothing left but bitterness and malice towards people. Sure, we are destructive, selfish etc by default, but we have the potential to be better than that. If we can embrace and cultivate the "dark" side of ourselves, become disciplined and refined, then we can be a net force for good. That's why combat sports and martial arts are good way to show you in a simulated environment what destructive prowess you are capable of, then learn how to only use it as a last resort.

Understanding the villian's motivations and rationalizations allows one to see why there are lines that shouldn't be crossed, even if some of the world's insane standards drove them there... It doesn't make them right, but it does make them intriguing... The devil's greatest trick was convincing mankind that he doesn't exist, but he does... He really does...

Another green goblin quote I think about that really would've helped the overall narrative of this is paraphrased from Spider-Man 1: "The one thing [ people ] love more than a hero is to see a hero fail, fall...die trying.

Can I say I loved Bellweather as a villain? She sucked as a twist villain, but her actions and motivations made sense. She was darting predators, but Lionheart got in the way and as a result, no one knew about the savage ones. It would look too suspicious if she found them, or maybe she didn’t know, but she took the most naive cop and pointed her in the right direction, covering her tracks as she went. It was genius and actually worked until that cop got too nosy.

[@petestevenson1004]

Almost by definition I'd say, true villains aren't evil - they chose to act differently. Their actions are evil, they themselves are not. They are the shadow of our sick society - the other side of how to behave in this crazy world Villains expose the dark side of themselves for all to see, while 'heroes' hide their selfish and arrogant sides away from everyone, esp. themselves. Unchecked evil in the human heart is far more dangerous in the long term than even the most horrific school shootings - the shootings expose the evil so that it can be dealt with, like a fire alarm or a code blue in an ER And the more it festers inside the mind, the greater the pressure builds, until it explodes and destroys everyone and everything. Good people shouldn't be afraid in the face of evil acts. They should be more afraid of the unseen and unacknowledged evil in their own hearts. Great vid, too bad it won't download. This is a great resource for writers on how to write a villain well. It's all in the motive!
