A very good list indeed!

I'd add "Villain thinks he's invincible", that he's covered all of the bases, scoured the earth of his personal kryptonite, and that as a result he's already won...the hero can't possibly represent a threat. Therefore the villain mocks the hero for not accepting this, and in his arrogance allows his enemy to "take his best shot" or overly toys with his adversary instead of eliminating the danger to him. He never realizes until it's too late that the hero facing him has obtained the one key to his destruction after all.
