for me, queen ariana was your standard barbie movie villain with a decent amount of depth and threat. the real standout and what made her more interesting for me was her daughter, princess luciana. it would have been easy and trope-ish to make her into a snobby, spoiled princess who goes along with her mother's plan because she's also in love with the prince. but they decided to make her into a sweet, lovely girl who only wishes to experience falling in love. while the love in her head is certainly very idealistic snd you could argue that when her mother shut it down it was just a more realistic arguement, still hearing that your own mother never loved your father is heartbreaking. this contrast between her and her mother makes the two more nuanced as we see this abusive relationship unfold. and i think without princess luciana being the way that she is, queen ariana wouldnt have been so memorable for me.

I think for me it will have to be Laverna from Fairytopia, since she was the first barbie villain I saw, and even though I have watched almost all of the barbie movies, there is just something about her that was terrifying. I remember being a little scared of her and not liking her at all and thought she was pure evil as a child, and now I still think that she was one of the best/worst barbie villains for the reasons Caitlin explained. Yet there were other villains in this list that made sense and some villains were really evil and scary. This is also because the Fairytopia movies were my favorite when I was little especially Magic of the Rainbow so they are really nostalgic to me. Side Note: Not too long ago I was watching a not too old video of Caitlin's (I swear this was like two days ago) and I thought to myself that what if she does a ranking barbie movie villains, and now she did!

They’ve also got some serious star power behind a few of them. They got Catherine O’Hara, Martin Short, and the legendary Tim Curry behind them.

[@ElfsArt24]

Queen Ariana's backstory confused me when I learned what 'the devil's tango' was cus she either did IT with the old king and luckily got a daughter. But because the line is 'when I found out king Richard had a son, I had a daughter right away' I wondered how she knew her child was going to be a daughter or she could of kidnapped a child from the orphanage or even a rich couples child.

[@Simbala-bq5vy]

Do you mean the devil's tango from Alex Meyers?

[@elsie8757]

Yeah, that line definitely makes it sound like she got pregnant _after_ her husband died. Maybe she went off and had a one-night stand and just passed the resulting pregnancy off as being from her late husband? But that still doesn't explain how she knew it would be a girl (or how she "made sure" she would get pregnant at all).

[@delimelone]

Honestly now after watching this and thinking about it for a while Gothel is my new favourite villain. I just love that her motive is not power and wealth, but rather really cruel revenge. She always asserts power and just acts in such a badass way, then her being defeated by her own spell is a nice contrast to that. Also I fucking love Otto for some reason, that last scene were he has to bring her tea is such a hilarious and in-character way to show how they ended up and it always makes me grin.

[@katysvaren]

If we're gonna talk about Wenlock, let's talk about Wenlock. Watched Pegasus yesterday, perfect timing. So he does have heterochromia, but *HE GIVES IT TO HIMSELF!!* When he transforms at the end of the movie back into a regular guy, he has two brown eyes. Dude was like "I'm ugly, give me height and muscle and all the things I could possibly want in my appearance," then looks at himself in the mirror, decides he's still ugly so says "give me blue eyes." Not satisfied so goes "give me yellow instead." Man is _still_ not satisfied, so says "give me both." Damn. Talk about being insecure. Also, the his backstory starts with him stealing the staff of a powerful sorcerer. Why then, at the end of the movie, does the all powerful staff turn into an oar? Like... Annika undoes all his spells, but the staff was the one who did the spells(not its fault, just doin what it's told) and therefore should still remain the staff because a spell was not put upon it... I mean unless he used the staff to make his own magic staff... but then he would have had to keep the original staff to make sure no one else took it... Idk. Seems flawed to me. Okay. I've edited this like... 10 times now. I think I've said all that I needed to say. Thank you for coming to my TED Talk.

[@elsie8757]

Maybe whatever the wand of light did to him at the end wasn't _just_ undo all his spells, but also specifically make him powerless, so he can't hurt anyone anymore? And so that resulted in his scepter being turned into a wooden oar? Because like. If it stayed a magic scepter, there would be nothing stopping him from just redoing everything.

This man is perfect and iconic, entertaining too 😊 My number 2 is Rowenna from Twelve dancing princesses; she has an evil monkey, can manipulate the king AND killed him, she uses the power of the golden flower well, is super severe. This lady is smart and cruel. Her grey dress is ugly but her personality is great! My number 3 is Queen Ariana from Island Princess; she married a rich king then kill him to take his money plus she manipulates her daughter AND tried to kill Prince Antonio by poisoning the wedding cake. Also her rats can hide anywhere and are agile, it's hard to see them doing an evil trick.

[@rubyhay450]

Supposedly her husband had a heart condition that he died from if I heard her song right. To me I like to think that she had married him only for the title and power that comes with it and well he died just 3 days after they married. I just think that while she is a evil woman she didn't kill her husband or poison him.

[@Special_K1003]

Yessss, those are my top three as well! From what I remember, Rowena actually steals and sells some of the late Queen's silver items (I think it was a cup) to buy the poison she uses on the King. She pretty much succeeded at killing him (I don't think Genevieve or Lacy realized he was dead when they brought the water that ends up "curing" him) and she becomes Queen. From the beginning, she is determined to alienate the princesses from their father and drive a wedge in their relationship. I think she convinces the King in his weak, sickly state to view the princesses as "burdens to him" and that's why they leave. Also, the way she calls the King "dear cousin" is truly disturbing cause you can totally sense her scheming. She is so devious and truly an iconic villain!

[@rubyhay450]

@@Special_K1003 true she did buy the poison with a cup that was the late queen's favorite.

I already knew Preminger is number one. He is THE villain of Barbie movies. How could I refuse? 🎶

[@janelleitzel7807]

lydia used to terrify me as a child 😭 diamond castle was my fave growing up & i remember her traumatizing me

Human Nalu is seen as the villagers are being frozen by Wenlock in magic of Pegasus.

[@theroseofversailles]

So I guess Nalu wanted to be part of our world!

[@viana6rising]

Barbie's Gothel still terrifies me to this very day. She gave me nightmares as a kid and I can't even tell if it's the way she looks or her personality.

[@asobimo5532]

I was more afraid of her pet

[@katysvaren]

Caitlin: Laverna is at her best in the first movie. *Proceeds to show a clip of her from the third movie.*

[@gradygal81]

Also Rothbart is voiced by Kelsey Grammer who plays sideshow Bob in the Simpsons. His voice is so iconic!

[@sailormoonfaiza]

He's also the guy who voiced Stinky Pete the Prospector in Toy Story 2. At the end, He meets Barbie in Amy's backpack.

[@jennygfrerer8345]

Dame Devin definitely was a bit more evil just because she got rid of Blaire’s mom through setting up a car crash where Blaire was supposed to die as well but she found in front of her adopted moms house

[@theroseofversailles]

Preminger is my favorite villain. He's sassy, smart, theatrical, flexible with his plans, observant, has a great singing voice, and has that passion in every word he says. I strive to cosplay as him one day and he's actually very hot. I apologize to everyone for saying that if I scarred you. I have a crush on him and I will never be sorry. How can I refuse him?

[@Kerendiker222]

Preminger supremacy!!!!!! Always stan a man who rhymed champagne with Charlemagne. Also I did not know Martin Short voiced him but given that they got Tim Curry for the mouse king I’m also kind of not surprised. Im ngl I’m surprised dame devin is so low considering she arranged for the murder of 2 people (successfully) and a baby, all her own family.

[@Erika-xm2mi]

I vaguely recall Laverna mentioning or at least implying that the reason she wants to take over Fairytopia is that she's always felt like she was in Enchantress' shadow and like she was a black sheep who was never loved by her. A "if you think I'm a villain, then I'll become a villain" type of situation in a way.

[@therapyfilms]

rothbart has always been my fav. like his motives, his DESIGN, his voice it’s just all so good

[@unapologeticallylizzy]

My Facebook messenger notification is Preminger's scream.

[@princessbabyboo]

u are an icon

[@glitcher654]

I loved Dame Devin, honestly, she's one of my favorite Barbie villians, after Preminger of course.

[@RHTQ1]

Your top ten is very solid. Not sure how fairy secret girl was so high, tho, she wasnt even on screen much (the princess filled more of the on-screen powerful villian role tbh). Great list tho! I also liked Secret Door's backstory about her being the only princess w/o magic, in a world where every creature seems to have magic in some form, and this not being her first time stealing it, was interesting

[@sip_sipsssss]

Yeah. I also felt the princess fairy (forgot her name lol) filled the role of a villain more than Crystal.

[@Satanna.avemaria]

I also really liked madam carp “If you weren’t such a lazy cow” loool

[@jellosquid]

Preminger is by far my favorite, but I am absolutely terrified of bird man and his piggy daughter

[@XxRexorcistxX]

PREMINGER IS VOICED BY THE GUY WHO PLAYS JACK FROST IN THE SANTA CLAUSE MOVIES??? HOW DID I NEVER REALIZE THIS

[@LockTheLastOpenDoor1]

The thumbnail omg 😂😂

[@chrystag1]

If Preminger wasn’t number one I was gonna be like “who are you and what have you done with Caitlin?” Icon👏

[@barbieexpert6516]

wenlock's my favorite barbie movie villain. idk anyone like preminger in real life, but i know ppl like wenlock. it's a realistic and accessible evil to come from a barbie movie; entitled misogynists obsessed with the value of beauty are more comprehensible villains and strike deeper than a villain like agent dunbar or someone, and when a character like wenlock changes his mind? rescinds the offer that's been on the back burner for the protagonist to use as a last resort? an unpredictable villain, going against the plot progressions we're used to/comfy with, that we can see mirrored in real life, is phenomenal character design.

[@georginagonzalez3509]

Agree! Wenlock is the kind of evil person you can see in real life. I gave my whole opinion on another comment.

[@Deevine1234]

The Princess And The Pauper is also my best Barbie movie of all time. Dominic, Perminger, Annaliese, Julian, Erika, Erika's boss, everyone is iconic including their pets like it's so beautifully made it's unbelievable, I could watch it a million times. And also I can sing every one of their songs and my favourite is 'if you love me for me'

[@ameliaroseillustrations]

✨Movie idea✨ All the 2000s Barbie villains team up and takeover the Barbieverse!

[@moitri]

As soon as I read the notification, I knew in my heart…. It’s Preminger.

[@Nono-Bunny]

Smh Malucia deserves better, I Want It All is an iconic bop, and this is coming from someone who didn't even grow up with that movie! Watched it for the first time very recently and Malucia became like, genuinely one of or maybe just straight up my favorite Barbie villain, she's so much fun!!

[@CozyGlow625]

This is one of the best comments in the history of youtube 💜💜💜

[@evilestguy]

OH MY GOD THE MOUSE KING.... when i was little he really freaked me out for some reason tbh. the noise he makes when getting knocked out early in the movie and the way his model moved genuinely scared me to the point where i would hide when the first fight scene came on. i now love him. his voice acting makes up for any shortcomings of that movie i stg.

[@YumeDream39]

I honestly love Ariana as a villain. Her plan was just so well thought out and when I watched it for the second time, I has to pause to actually take in the lyrics of her song. Her family tried to commit treason, she married a king just to gain the status of queen only for the king to die later because of a heart condition, then planned to commit treason again by poisoning the king, queen, and literally everyone else who was at the wedding.

[@olivia-olsen]

I love how there is a common theme in all of these videos that newer barbie movies tend to be at the bottom

[@PainKiller1.6180]

Would be cool to see you ranking Barbie movie parents

[@reedsylvier5250]

The top scorer's voice acting was on another level too, absolutely iconic but legitimately good too

[@elissiaro]

Lowkey "I want it all" from Open Door is my favorite barbie villain song. It's just so fun. I love how petty and bratty Malucia is.

[@douaaiscool2710]

The fact that Gothel used to scare me as a child, like ACTUALLY scare me

[@gigiisaweirdo8175]

Preminger is top tier, always my favorite, he’s a king, he’s a god, he is life, he’s everything

[@karena5563]

31:18 your friendly reminder that it is called heterochromia. The strain that Wendlock had is complete heterochromia.

[@natalieholmes1117]

How can you beat the Mouse King? Tim Curry is so fun in that role. Him asking if the Nutcracker wants to be dismembered or barbecued? Iconic.

[@ThatRandomJ]

Preminger is a short king. He's so tiny, but his ego makes up for it.

[@roisingrant]

My Top 5: 1. Preminger (duh) 2. Duchess Rowena (an actual threat and despite wearing only one grey dress pulls it off FLAWLESSLY) 3. Laverna (an ICON let's be real) 4. Dame Devin (another actual threat who also is STUNNINK in her one chartreuse ensemble) 5. Lydia (idc she's a vibe tbh)

[@deenadallas2802]

I'm just getting started on watching the video, and I already know Preminger is on number one because he's everywhere on your cover and everyone loves him, especially me.

[@theroseofversailles]

He makes me, a woman who is not interested in romance, go crazy. He and I will be getting married at our fictional wedding one day.

[@juliapakarinen7956]

At first I was surprised that the Mouse King was so "low", but when I saw the others on top 10, I thought: "Oh, makes sense." I'm glad you have changed your mind about Ariana. I don't know why, but for some reason I thought that you were going to say "If I saw Rowena in real life, I would run." :D But yeah, your option is relatable too. You've probably remembered already, but her henchman's name is Desmond. Especially your top 3 is amazing. Thank you for this video, it was a joy to watch.

[@thieffanfiction]

I saw your title, thought "there is no way it's not Preminger", then saw your thumbnail background. And I was pleased.

[@Jojo.F87]

Oh boy, I really don't remember the older movies looking....quite like that lmao. Preminger hella deserves #1 I haven't seen a Barbie movie since I was like... 6 or so, but I still hear "How can I refuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuse" randomly in my mind at least once a day. What a freaking icon.
