Any Weyoun fans here?

I liked Weyoun 5. He was the hottest one.
They're all hot because Jeffrey Combs.
I wouldn't use the word hot but he was a great character particularly due to Combs' acting.
One of my favorite Weyoun moments was when he, Dukat, and Sisko are in Quarks before the war starts, and he drinks a glass of kanar from the bottle that was poisoned. Dukat has a priceless look on his face and says, "are you INSANE?" Weyoun, after making a face after drinking it, remarks that Vorta are immune to most poisons, and "it comes in handy when you're a diplomat." I just thought that was a great scene, and the way Combs delivers the lines are perfect.
Weyoun was a really entertaining Star Trek villain. I loved how arrogant he was.
I need that. Any more good video clips?
Thanks.

Simply check out everything you can find on Youtube. I guess you can find the "Weyoun drinks poison" scene, too
What really makes him interesting to me is how is arrogance is balanced so well with his being abused and victimized by the Founders. The Founders themselves were sympathetic in a basic way because all the bad things they did were motivated by the abuse and prejudice they'd experienced from "the solids". It gave them all a depth and pathos that made them more interesting than the average alien menace.
I never realized it until I read this thread, but now it makes perfect sense: The TNG movies chased after their own "Khan", with (my opinions, of course) OK results with Soran, pretty good results with the Borg Queen even though they wrecked the Borg in the process, and abysmal results with Shinzon - but they could have had ***Weyoun*** the whole time. (Perhaps another rogue clone that the Founders didn't even bother to number because he was *so* rogue that they couldn't admit to anyone he even existed, or... something. I don't know that I really even care HOW all that much.

There could have been an interesting Dominion dimension to Nemesis. The problem I had with STX was that for a political intrigue along the lines of Undiscovered Country, there was little actual intrigue. Romulan strife was a pretext to get the Enterprise to Romulus and encounter a ship with a non-Romulan leader and a non-Romulan crew. A shapeshifter or two would have been welcome.I never realized it until I read this thread, but now it makes perfect sense: The TNG movies chased after their own "Khan", with (my opinions, of course) OK results with Soran, pretty good results with the Borg Queen even though they wrecked the Borg in the process, and abysmal results with Shinzon - but they could have had ***Weyoun*** the whole time.

The changelings impersonating who....?
Tomalak? Sela? Shi(t)nzon.
Spock

Scott Glenn could play it. He looked very Vulcan in Sucker Punch in his first scene.
Another great Weyoun moment is the smile he gives after he says, "You're witnessing an historic moment. The birth of the alliance between the Dominion and the Breen. Changes everything, doesn't it?" His face in the last shot of that episode is priceless.
