I think Hannibal's character was so messed up and lacked a regard for life in general. He had probably been ready to die at any moment and wanted to go with a flourish rather than show fear, whixh would only make his enemies happy.

Believe it or not, there are people in this world who have a strong lack of fear. And contrary to romantic notions, this isn't a common characteristic of heroesit's a common characteristic of psychopaths.
If you've seen Silence of the Lambs, you may remember that line about how, during his attack on the nurse, "His pulse never got over eighty-five."
In short, the character of Hannibal is possessed of extreme, unnatural calmness.
This is not to suggest that Hannibal doesn't care what happens to himself or has no fear at allit's just that it's greatly reduced from that of a normal person. There are plenty of things in this film I found implausible, but Hannibal's implacable calm in the face of situations that would send the average person into hysterical panic isn't one of them. People like that do exist. -

What my interpretation was was that Hannibal had complete and utter faith in Clarice to rescue him, he even allowed himself to get captured just to test her and her incorruptability, he was so enamoured with her and thinking she would not allow him to become the victim of a corrupt revenge killing that all other FBI and police in the movie were happy to let happen to him that he KNEW she would get there, his absolute faith in her courage and incorruptability meant he had nothing to be afraid of.. the perfect couple.. they can just never be together , just my two cents

Having just seen that scene, I can comment that while there's no respond on Hannibal's face, as you see his chest moving it does seem that he's breathing faster, so there's defintely some adrenaline/fear response there, just not a obvious one.

In the Hannibal TV series, Hannibal Lecter seems to embrace death and pain. He rarely shows any emotional expression every time his life is in danger in the show.

I think I remember seeing him sweating heavily in that scene, so I think there was a little bit of panic. But people like him put on a brave face all the time. Also he was probably just focused on a way of getting out of it and not just screaming and accepting it.

I hear the best thing to do is feed them to pigs. You got to starve the pigs for a few days, then the sight of a chopped-up body will look like curry to a pisshead. You gotta shave the heads of your victims, and pull the teeth out for the sake of the piggies' digestion. You could do this afterwards, of course, but you don't want to go sievin' through pig beep, now do you? They will go through bone like butter. You need at least sixteen pigs to finish the job in one sitting, so be wary of any man who keeps a pig farm. They will go through a body that weighs 200 pounds in about eight minutes. That means that a single pig can consume two pounds of uncooked flesh every minute. Hence the expression, "as greedy as a pig".
