    I would agree that this version is the penultimate adaptation of the character. The chilling display of power clearing the restaurant, the façade he can put on to hide in plain sight and his ruthless pragmatism all combine to make him a threat truly worthy of rivaling Sherlock Holmes.

    Moriarty claims to have respect for Holmes, but it’s not really respect. He would kill Holmes without hesitation the moment he loses his “respect” for him (in other words, Sherlock makes a mistake that Moriarty judges to be a foolish one) or the moment he knows Holmes is getting uncomfortably close to winning their game of minds. Moriarty keeps Holmes around because he wants to outsmart him first, then kill him. Of course, Moriarty’s vanity turns out to be a fatal blind-spot in his intellect.

      Man can't play game fair and square, when he lost he starts to cheat. Narcissists in a nutshell.

    This version of Moriarty will be the best one and my personal favorite in my book. This Moriarty just had everything together, giving the heroes, and even Sherlock Holmes, such a hard time and always having a backup plan. This, combined with his chillingly calm personality, makes him a threat that can truly rival Sherlock Holmes's intellect and deduction.
    Fun fact: This iteration of Moriarty, along with Sir Crocodile from One Piece, inspired me to create a villain of my own, who is from my profile picture.

    "Come now, surely you didn't think you're the only one who can play this game."
    That line was the crown jewel of this character. Cementing him as the best Moriarty of all time.

    What an amazing video. I'm so happy finally someone provided a good analysis of Prof. Moriarty's character.

    I think that Moriarty fits really well between other powerful psychopaths. He has a lot in common with many historical dictators. The only big difference is that he does not need to show his deeds publicly and claim them as his own. He prefers to stay in the shadows.
    P.S.: I suggest making a video about Coriolanus Snow, the "president" of the Capitol from the Hunger games series.

    Moriarty is my favourite character of all time anyway, but this version of him is the firts that I've encountered, so thanks for this video !!
    (My fav versions are Jim BBC and William from Moriarty The Patriot, but I love them all.)
    I think his profound respect for Sherlock Holmes is a big part of his character ; and I also liked the part when you said that he reflects what Sherlock would be without his moral and loved ones : that's the whole point of the character.

    I'm a big fan of Sherlock Holmes, and I must say this video is truly a masterpiece. I've rewatched it multiple times, and I think it's a very profound psychological analysis of Moriarty's character.
    I've seen other videos on this channel and would like to know the brains behind this channel: incredible stuff, remarkable and succinct!

    This version of Moriarity was a perfect dark mirror to this film's version of Sherlock. Sherlock is unorthodox and thinks out of the box but he cares about people especially his best friend Watson, Moriarity is so pragmatic that he's heartless and sees his own men as disposable.

    The film presented Moriarty's character in a very bad way. Firstly, Moriarty is not a narcissist, he is truly confident in himself, and secondly, Moriarty is much smarter than Sherlock and can destroy him easily.
