Top Ten Xanatos Moments

[@joemcguire9988]

This is why xanatos is such a great villain: he has so much fun with it. He’s not crazy, he’s not even really evil, he’s just out for himself and looking to have a good time.

[@cunningsmile4166]

As Adventure said in the Pagemaster: He's my kind of guy!

[@NarwhalEntertainment]

I love how, at the end of almost every episode where David Xanatos is the villain, the last lines boil down to Owen: "Your plan failed Sir" Xanatos: "Lol, NOPE"

[@Elly3981]

He's brilliant and cool-headed. Failure doesn't seem to faze him, unlike Demona, lol. I'd say MacBeth would be my next favorite antagonist of the Gargoyles.

[@texasgent4694]

@@Elly3981 Most definitely, Xanatos and Macbeth are my two favorite Gargoyles Villains Xanatos I like because He's pretty much unshakable in any situation, also the fact that He aquires His wealth via a time paradox plus He's the ONLY Villain I know that can make a ponytail look so badass🤣, and Macbeth because you can tell He's not an Inherently Evil Man, and once you learn of His tragic past you understand why He's such a broken Man

[@ztslovebird]

There was only one time in this show when Xanatos truly lost his shit & acted out of rage and fear. He could keep himself distracted from contemplating Fox’s death under the influence of the Eye of Odin by focusing on the next plan to save her. But when Oberon came for his son & he couldn’t bargain, threaten, reason, or shoot his way out of the situation, he lost control of his emotions & just tried to beat the snot out of Oberon with his bare fists. No martial arts, just charging & roaring like a cranky Goliath.

[@shockwavespider3942]

But that that didn’t ruin his magnificent bastard status besides he got his son back right ?

[@ztslovebird]

@@shockwavespider3942 Once Alexander was safe, Xanatos went back to normal. Sort of.

[@krosalil7732]

And that was a very loving attention to detail. It showed how little in control Xanatos even knew he was at the time where he was incapable of saving his own son. Xanatos is used to being so far ahead of everyone else. Everyone else are pawn pieces on his personal chess set that he can arrange, knock off, or knock back on his own time, whims, and choosing. He even allowed Fox to brag and openly gloat to Eliza about his intentions for Derek before it even happened because he wanted a more sporting challenge. He wanted Eliza to know to make the game more fun and watch her try to catch up and keep pace with him. Try to stop him. He is a master of strategy and finesse. But he's not so fragile that he can't admit when he's defeated. He just learns to do better and be better the next time around. But he can't afford to be that way when it comes to a kid. Being a dad changed even Xanatos. Xanatos awhile before in the series finally accepted to himself that he truly did love Fox and there was someone in his life he did value and truly love. Cared about. He would sacrifice anything for her happiness when Xanatos is only used to serving himself. He never intended to love but he fell into it and eventually accepted it. Alexander was already his boy, the greatest gift in his life. He and Fox truly wanted to be parents and they are the most human when it comes to their boy. When Oberon came claiming Alexander for his own, Xanatos was put into a fatal life or death situation he had no way out of. Someone else had him on their chess board rather than the other way around. Oberon cared nothing about money so he couldn't be bought. Oberon is almost the equivalent of a god in this world so Xanatos can't threaten him with anything. He can't reason with this "faery god" so Xanatos' methods and careful planning entirely collapsed and broke down. He resorted to rage because he was put in a place where he was helpless to save someone that mattered to him.

[@MisterH37]

One of my favorites was right after your #4. "Oh, Hello Goliath. I didn't even notice you there."

[@Shintigercurl]

that first moment not only shows you xanatos' character but how much he values owen. he lost to him and instead of being mad, he's proud of him. and then he gets angry when owen suggests that he should've thrown the spar. xanatos would rather have a capable side-kick than a brown nosing toadie.

Xanatos wasn't exactly evil. There are lines even he won't cross, unlike Demona. He is brilliant, though and I loved the way Johnathan Frakes brought him to life.

He won't kill. He won't break a law that he can get caught for. He has a charitable side. All in all he is a man who likes the trappings of wealth and power, just to feel secure. But deep down he fears dying of old age. Because he was traumatized by his mother's death as a child.

[@Lowkeylie]

I know these lists are subjective but you missed in my opinion one of his best moments. After orchestrating a prison break/confrontation with the gargoyles his robot winds up coming up short in the conflict. But none of that even matters because the whole point was to make Fox look good during the prison break by refusing to escape and net her an early, 100% legal parole. When she asks him what about his revenge, he replies simply, “Revenge is a sucker’s game.” Moments like this are what made Xanatos suck a standout antagonist. He was charismatic, pragmatic and wickedly sharp. Every plan he made he ensured that when it lose, he would always get something of value. He had a code but everything he did was a calculated move in furthering his own goals. He was nobody’s fool. No wonder he’s the trope codifier for the magnificent bastard.

Gotta love #1 moment. I don't think that was his top moment though -- that honor belongs to when he went up against Oberon, knowing that he had absolute no chance, all to protect his son, esp when Oberon dusted all his weapons, so David did a jump kick on him. Close #2 is when Fox asked why David isn't getting revenge on the Gargoyles, and David replied, "it's such a waste, and revenge is so beneath me." And it turned out he was right, because Gargoyles did so much for David (mostly unknowingly to the gargoyles), and David was able to find true happiness because he didn't resort to stupidity like revenge.
