For me, it would be GLaDOS.

Portal 2 spoilerShe deleted the one remaining human part of herself because it was just too much to deal with. She releases you at the end of Portal 2 as a path of least resistance measure because "killing you is hard."

What about you, what is your favorite media villain?

An old one, but the Emperor from Gladiator. His death is among the most satisfying in movie history. Absolutely amazing performance by Joaquin Phoenix.

I just watched gladiator to show the kid for the first time and for me it was the first time in 20 years, he was wonderful. I then watched "space camp" a few days ago which id never seen and Phoenix's 11-year+old face jumped out of that.

Showing the kid "Sneakers" now, and the kid was blown away Phoenix had a brother (River) who was also an actor.
