Ranking Every Disney Villain

This video making was pain for me being the longest trying to express my love for villains it was hard and I struggled to think about some of them and might regret them.

[@aga48584]

Frollo is the scariest because he's the most realistic. His plan is not world domination or money like many Disney villains. He wants to destroy sin in the world. What is dangerous about him is that he does not see that he is doing wrong, and he convinces himself that what he does is God's will. He sees the Roma as sin, so he wants to destroy them by committing genocide. On top of that, later on, he is completely unable to cope with the sex drive he feels for a Roma girl. He is also morbidly jealous of her and would rather kill her than have her be with someone else after being rejected.

[@katherinecruz252]

Agreed, his villain is on the same level of a recent Disney Channel animated show, The Owl House, where the villain, Belos, also thinks that what he is doing is right when it is morally wrong. He also killed his brother just to “maintain moral balance” in his life.

The Huns as a whole generally respected women, which is why Shan-Yu referred to her as, “the soldier from the battlefield” and not, “ You’re the one who killed my entire army!”

[@cursedcancersurvivor]

That is a myth perpetrated by redditors and Tumblrites. The Huns wouldn't even account for her as a woman, just another obstacle on the battlefield like her male counterparts. This "oh, look how the progressive these barbaric people are over the more civilized peoples, oh irony" is a trope that needs to die in a trash bin.

He also straight up tells Elenwen to F off in a cut voiceline in the intro of the game when she tries to free Ulfric. Siding with the Stormcloaks is just destroying what's left of Tiber Septim's empire. It accomplishes nothing as the Thalmor still remain in Skyrim after their victory ironically.

The way that I already knew Frollo was number 1 on this list... he's the scariest, in my opinion, because people like him have & STILL exist. Not only that, as a practicing Catholic, I never realized how dark this film was and how it is relatable. I wouldn't say I have ran into people who have taken things to Frollo's extreme (aka genocide), but I have ran into people who have this "holier than thou" attitude that usually result in people thinking they are self-righteous and are quick to point out the sins in others, but refuse to acknowledge their own sins. Not to mention, the manipulation tactics they use to "justify" their actions.

[@saskia3691]

As a practicing Catholic as well, I consider Froll to be my favorite villain not just from Disney but pop culture in general (followed by Darth Sidious from Star Wars). What is most interesting about Frollo is how he looks at the whole world with disgust. He abhors it, but exalts himself, considering himself righteous and perfect. Frollo commits the sin of pride here. This sin is the most dangerous sin, because it does not allow us to reflect on other sins and allows us to say that they are not. It was Lucifer's pride that made this angel fall, and it is contrasted with Christ's humility, which is represented Quasimodo. When the audience tortures and taunts him saying "long live the king" you can see this reference.

From what I recall, the original story it was based on was even darker, with Frollo actually burning Esmerelda on the stake, rather than the last minute rescue they had in the Disney movie, because they can't have a main character die in a Disney movie.

[@Yellowguy0619]

I find Frollo overrated tbh.

[@tanamango320]

I find Shan Yu very underrated. Despite not having a lot of screen time, he's the most threatening villain by far imo. No singing, no silly jokes, him and his army are just rolling over China's defenses head first and leaving nothing behind. And all that just for the challenge. Not to mention, his powerful and intimidating theme.

[@one-onessadhalf3393]

That scene where he’s able to track the army just with the doll, and then seeing the absolutely decimated village it came from, is positively chilling

[@decrepitdebauchery]

i guess the “problem” is that hes more like the intimidating obstacle brick wall than he is an actual villain. not that thats a bad thing, mulan didnt really warrant a fleshed-out villain, plus theres absolutely nothing wrong with a bad-to-the-bone, completely sadistic villain. but i suppose some people wished he was a tiny bit more “humanized”- personally i think he had the potential to be even more terrifying if he had _simple_, but effective motives

[@FakeJake996]

Like he’s the best to be honest

[@DMobi]

I'm a little bit disappointed that the Headless Horseman didn't make the list, the only Disney that truly managed to scare me and gave me nightmares. I do agree with Frollo being number 1, because the scariest thing about him is that people like that actually exists in real life.

[@Luke_SkywaIker]

The real question is: Are you in the camp that says the Horseman was a legitimate evil entity, or was it Brom Bones all along? The implications of both are honestly pretty frightening - either Icabod was stalked, scared half to death, then murdered out of pure jealousy. Or he was the victim of a horrifying demon.

[@DMobi]

@@Luke_SkywaIker The book leaves it ambiguous but the Disney version seems to fall into the Horseman is real camp. There's a moment where Ichabod looks down the neck hole and sees nothing in it.

[@Luke_SkywaIker]

@@DMobi I feel that that scene in question could be taken both ways. Either Icabod truly nothing, or he actually saw Brom’s face in the costume. Both of which would be arguably frightening- in their own ways.

[@DMobi]

@@Luke_SkywaIker One way shows how far some people are willing to go in order to get what they want no matter the cost and do harm to their fellow man. The other way shows that there truly are evil supernatural forces out there and that we should be weary of them.

[@GuitarJammerJohn]

We are shown a bit like in Snow White he sees things in the forest that aren’t really there I do feel like that final scene is depicted from Ichabod’s point of view. I think it is Brom and in Ichabod’s mind the sword is swiping really close to him but really Brom is just chasing him swinging his sword around but the sword is never actually anywhere near him. He probably didn’t see it was Brom when he looked down as the top of his head was probably covered he likely just saw darkness and his overactive imagination did the rest. I don’t think Brom killed him not on purpose anyway as it’s possible he did die of freight but otherwise I think he just ran away and never came back.

Hunchback is my favorite Disney film. One of the most f-ed up things about Frollo, he tells Quasimodo that people are cruel. He tells him they won't be kind about Quasimodo's deformity. When Quasimodo sneaks out for one day and the people see what he really looks like, they turn out to be exactly how Frollo said they would. They threw food at him, tied him down with rope, pointed, and laughed at him. It shows that even the most evil of villains can be right sometimes.

Callaghan could have been an amazing twist villain, with a few minor tweaks: 1: take out the scene where the main characters "conclude" that Cray is the culprit. That scene just confirmed that Cray wasn't it. So take that out. 2: prop up Cray's morally dubious nature. He's a billionaire. It's not that hard to make him unlikeable. If we highlight the corners he's willing to cut, that could make Callaghan a more understandable villain. We'd come away thinking "I don't agree with what you're doing, but you have a point." 3: Have Callaghan's primary motivation be to get his daughter back. That will add to his sympathetic nature. Yeah, he can want revenge too, but having his main concern be the safety of his own daughter would make audiences really sympathize with him. After all, what father wouldn't be tempted to go to extreme lengths to save his own daughter? 4: Have Callaghan remorseful over killing Tadashi. We could even still have the "that was his mistake" line, just add in a moment of hesitation before that. Have a closeup showing a hint of remorse on his face before he hardens and tries to justify his actions with that half-butt excuse. Show that he actually does regret being the cause of Tadashi's death, but that he is unwilling to outwardly admit that he took things way too far, instead opting for the easier path of blaming it on the victim. These changes would make Callaghan into a much more believable, 3-dimensional, and sympathetic twist villain. Thank you for coming to my ted talk.

In defence of Hans, the reason he was a good villain is because of what he represented. Ana was an extrovert who finally had the opportunity to get out and meet people, whereas Elsa was an introvert who closed herself off to the world. Because of this, Hans represents what happens when we trust people too quickly (for example, dating apps and meeting people on social media). He’s a modern cautionary tale. Elsa on the other hand is a cautionary tale for what happens when you don’t open yourself up enough and you become reclusive. Because of this, I think Hans is a very well written villain and more so then what people give him credit for. He might not have the charisma, design, or musical number of a villain but he is scary for what he represents.

Frollo it’s by far the best Disney villain and one of the best Disney characters ever. The most complex, serious and adult themed character. He is scary because he is real, with real nasty thoughts, putrid motivations and twisted ideology and moral. He is manipulative and psychopathic, also he is ambiguous, because he knows that his actions are bad, in the eyes of "god", and he will be punished by it, but he still do it anyway, because those nasty thoughts are stronger and bigger then everything he tells himself to believe, like his religion. He does what he thinks it’s right and uses his religion and power position to justify for his terrible actions. He is the most life like villain and Disney character, a truly bad human being. And to top it all off, Frollo got the best Disney song ever, Hellfire. The vocals, lyrics, animation…everything top notch, it’s insane how good it is, even after almost 30 years.

Though I'm happy to see Treasure Planet on here with the inclusion of John Silver, I'm disappointed that you excluded Scroop, who's also from Treasure Planet. I mean, have you seen what horrible things he has done throughout the whole movie? From attempting to kill Jim Hawkins twice to trying to get Silver exposed as a big ol' softie all because of his affection towards Jim, right in front of the entire pirate gang, and worst of all, straight-up murdering Mr. Arrow by cutting off his lifeline, making him fall into the black hole while screaming in doom, and getting Jim falsely-blamed for Arrow's untimely demise since it was Jim's responsibility to secure the lifelines of everybody onboard the RLS Legacy. That's why Scroop's not only one of the most underrated Disney villains ever (along with John Silver), but also one of the scariest Disney villains of all time. He's such a sadistic, psychotic, bloodthirsty, merciless, violent, cruel, cold-hearted, terrifying, hateful, and evil eight-legged monster.

[@thesardonicpig3835]

Wow, first time I've heard someone talking about Scroop actually! I honestly just really love his voice actor, his performance was stunning and immediately memorable. And I agree that he's a great villain - I guess he gets left out because he's more of a marginal threat and Silver's underling. But Silver too, in my opinion, is a little more insidious than Aldone interprets him to be. I don't think he has any noble motivations besides keeping Jim out of harm - it isn't implied that he cares about anybody except Jim. The film is actually quite clever in keeping the extent of Silver's villainy ambiguous by never quite giving him an opportunity to show the worst of himself. He's a perfectly written, morally grey character who doesn't lean too far either way.

[@1992disney]

@@thesardonicpig3835 Yeah. Michael Wincott did such a great job voicing the spider psycho himself. His vocal performance was so chilling and unforgettable that it doesn't deserve to be constantly overlooked, if you ask me. Scroop has proven to be not only the film's secondary antagonist, but also the film's true antagonist. He's just as scary on the inside as he is on the outside. His misdeeds were so despicable that they made Silver's look like a walk in the park in comparison. It's such a shame that we may never get another morally-gray Disney villain like Silver nor will we ever get anymore terrifying Disney villains that are on the same level as Scroop for obvious and biased reasons.😔

[@thesardonicpig3835]

​@@1992disney I agree! I think Scroop's purpose in the film is to fill the slot of the wholeheartedly evil antagonist which Silver can't fill for obvious reasons. But he also serves as a foil to Silver. Scroop perfectly embodies the threat hanging over Silver's head from his own crew, who could easily mutiny against _him_ if he doesn't satisfy them. Scroop is a fantastic secondary antagonist because he's not just the henchman, he's a driving force behind both Jim's and Silver's inner conflicts. I do think Disney will bring back their terrifying, classic villains at some point (people are too obviously unsatisfied with the direction they're currently taking), but I fear we might never get another ambiguous villain like Silver, because morally grey characters are always a gamble and the corporation doesn't like to take chances :(

[@1992disney]

@@thesardonicpig3835 That's right. But it's also important to note that Treasure Planet's a sci-fi adaptation of Treasure Island and Scroop's the sci-fi version of Israel Hands. Scroop's actually more important than most people even realize because had he not killed off Mr. Arrow, Silver would've likely never given Jim the Makings of Greatness speech. And without that crucial speech, their father and son-like relationship would've never been solidified. Disney unfortunately nowadays, doesn't want to take risks anymore. Instead, they always would rather play it safe because there's money to be had, of course.

Lady Tremaine in the animated version was FAR more sinister than in live action. She emotionally and verbally abused Cinderella, found petty excuses to make her do more chores out of pure spite, and sadistically manipulated her daughters into attacking Cinderella so as to crush Cinderella's spirit. And let's not forget her creepy death glare upon realizing Cinderella was the girl in love with the Prince, and then the scene where she locked her in her room has some pretty horrifying implications. People like her actually exist in real life. As for Captain Hook, even if he was a goofy prima donna, he still had a major dark side. He kidnapped the Chief's daughter, the kids, and the Lost Boys just to bait Peter Pan into traps, and then he very nearly killed Peter Pan himself.

[@aidanhever3369]

The reason those modern villains exist is because Disney wanted to make them as (mockingly) realistic as possible.

Instead, they decided to punish them in a safe way, that they weren't harsh enough for what they did. And they also want us to support toxic friendships and family abuse.

Yeah, that movie didn't really have a clear villain. The rat was the closest it had to that role, but even then it was more of a dangerous wild animal than a villain. Aunt Sarah was just someone who misunderstood dogs. Si and Am were naughty pranksters. And the dogcatchers were just guys doing their jobs, they didn't hate dogs.

[@fawfulfan]

Also, I think John Silver has to top my personal list. He is not the most threatening or evil Disney villain, but he is by far the most complex and mold-breaking one for having a genuine fatherly relationship with the protagonist and ultimately being redeemed by that relationship. It's something Disney never did with any of their other villains.

[@Nameless_mixes]

If you ask me, what makes so many Disney villains amazing and memorable is how camp they are. The more queer-coded (with over the top personalities and bold style choices), the greater impact they have! Their charisma tends to be much greater than those that lack this feature (like Hans, Bellwether, and The Horned King). I hope that if Disney goes back to more dedicated villains (not twist villains or ambiguous adversities) that they bring back this characteristic that makes people love them so much!

I'm afraid to bring this up, but your description immediately made me think of Lady Dimitrescu from Resident Evil (giant vampire lady to the uninformed). Yes the internet got a little excited shall we say, but from a writing perspective her entire character, her haughty/upper-class personality and Victorian-inspired design were absolutely on point. Her presence felt every bit classic Disney villain, even down to her sympathetic relationship with her daughters (sort of in the same vein as Ursula & her eels). Never played a RE game in my life, but I found the 4 Lords in Village to be incredibly fascinating

[@thareelhelloagain]

​@@Nameless_mixes That's also a pretty exact description of Governor Ratcliffe from Pocahontas, regarded by consensus to be a very weak villain in the Disney canon. Doesn't always work.

@@thareelhelloagain He might be one of Disney’s weaker villains, but he was still memorable. How could people forget his personality and wardrobe (sporting various pinks and purples in saturated tones compared to the more neutral blues, greens, and browns of the other men in the film)? So no, one doesn’t have to be the most imposing villain that everyone ranks in their top 10. But he still stands out to anyone that’s watched Pocahontas.

Shere Khan got robbed of a much more satisfying death. In the original book, Mowgli goes to the man-village for greater protection against the tiger, and is eventually put in charge of herding the village's buffaloes. When Shere Khan pursues him anyway, Mowgli waits until the tiger is sleeping in a giant canyon too tall for Khan to climb/leap out of, and then uses the wolves that are still friendly to himself to herd the buffalo into stampeding Shere Khan to death. Course, the villagers then think he's a sorcerer to control animals and try to stone him, so he goes back to the woods.

[@vetarlittorf1807]

Yes but that only works for the context of the book. In the movie, Mowgli proves himself to be the more noble one by taking his dignity instead of his life. This moment proves that Mowgli is human, because he can manipulate fire, but not the kind of human that Shere Khan fears, because he only used fire in defence rather than to terrorize.

[@stefanjentoft8107]

@@vetarlittorf1807 I think that’s part of the issue, though. The book makes it quite clear that Mowgli doesn’t fit in anywhere. He’s cast out by the wolf pack for being too human and by the village for being too wild. To end with him being accepted into human society undermines his character. “Jungle Book” is actually 3 separate books: one covers from Mowgli joining the wolves to his exile from the pack, one covers the Monkey episode (where Kaa is actually an ally in rescuing Mowgli), and the third brings resolution to Shere Khan and ends with Mowgli striking out on his own.

[@vetarlittorf1807]

@@stefanjentoft8107 I'm well aware of what the books are like. I've read them. But the problem with your argument is that you are contextualizing the books with the movie, which is only VERY loosely based on the books. The books were more about honor and society while the cartoon was more about identity and responsibility. Also, the books made it clear that Mowgli DID belong with his own kind. Spring Running revealed that the jungle can't accommodate his human needs and that's why he reunited with Messua in a British-controlled village, married a local girl, got a job as a forest ranger and settled with a family of his own.

Ratcliff was shown serving the king in the sequel scott free after being put in chains in the first movie. Why would the king punish Ratcliff? He was the governor commissioned to establish a colony and was doing exactly that. Remember, as far as the Englishmen were aware, the Indians started the conflict by ambushing them. Ratcliff was "justified" for going to war and John Smith and friends sided with the enemy. The reason we don't see any of the (colonial) side characters in the sequel is probably because they were arrested/hanged for treason just like John Smith was charged with. Assuming of course those side characters survived their first winter.

[@tanandalynch9441]

You kinda contradicted yourself. He was charged with treason, meaning he too would be hanged. The king would be stupid to hang a bunch of men all saying the same thing over the guy they're saying it about.

[@Riegawa]

@@tanandalynch9441 You make a fair point but it is a little more complicated then that. Ratcliff being the one in chains when he arrives in England does not validate the accusing men arresting him. The first thing that has to happen is both Ratcliff and his men would need to testify for mutiny. After all, he was governor and his men literally turned against him. It is very unlikely Ratcliff would be hanged for anything as his word was law in the name of the interests of the king. Because Ratcliff is still around in the sequel in England and not the colony I think it is safe to assume that he was at least temporarily removed from his power as governor. He was still serving the king quite closely, but not in the colony. (If he is being punished for mismanagement then I guess it's not completely "Scott Free" like I originally stated) After the mutiny is taken care of then heads can roll for treason. Remember, in a lot of courts if it is the word of the accused against the law enforcement the court usually sides with the agent of law enforcement by default. Ratcliff was the agent of law. This is probably why John Smith was being arrested at the start of the sequel. However, the king probably wanted John Smith alive for further questioning hence Ratcliff "Killing" him. The other men involved were not as high profile as John Smith and probably either hanged or Ratcliff got rid of them too. "Probably" The men who charged Ratcliff could have been handsomely rewarded for removing Ratcliff from power before he completely ruined the whole colony. It is just more likely that those men would have harsher negative consequences and not Ratcliff.

Just my opinion here, but Pocahontas is NOT a weak film. It is a great film, and is extremely important as it’s the very first animated film that’s not based on a fable or fairytale, but on an actual living breathing human being. Pocahontas (the young woman) kept the peace and was actually responsible for the white settlers and the natives getting along and actually working together instead of against each other. She actually could see the outcome for both groups if the continued with their paths of destruction. The film dives a little bit into that, and although the film plays more into the romance of she and John Smith, to which there was never any in real life, but the film does show how the both Pocahontas and John Smith were trying to keep the peace.and although the film takes different liberties than their real life counterparts, the film is just gorgeous and all the songs are not only catchy and remarkable, but extremely brilliant. Others characters such as Meeko, Flit, and Percy are classic Disney sidekicks, and Grandmother Willow is just as important as Cinderella’s Fairy Godmother, or the three fairies from Sleeping Beauty if not more so. She helps Pocahontas down her own path. But instead of doing it for her, makes Pocahontas think for herself. And you said that John Radcliffe only cares for himself and his agenda..... Um excuse me but which Disney villain are you thinking of that DOES care for someone other than themselves???? That’s your argument for why he’s a mediocre villain?!? Governor John Radcliffe is just as pompous and and crass and egotistical as Gaston and just as greedy as Medusa, Jaffar, and Scar. The colors are bright and vibrant just like in The Little Mermaid, Beauty and the Beast, Aladdin, and The Lion King. And yet, has the balls to not end on a fairy tales good note, but shows us that not every experience is going to be wrapped up in a nice little bow. It ends with John Smith and Pocahontas being better people for having known one another, and growing from the experience of meeting and knowing one another. I went to see it MANY MANY times in the theater, I liked it that well, and every time, the audience erupted with applause when it ended. And if you want to talk about being a weak link, might I suggest The Great Mouse Detective. Which just goes from flittery piece of nonsense to another. Or say The Rescuers Down Under, which differs from the formula of what makes a Disney animated film,,,a classic. To me, Pocahontas is the jewel in the middle of Disney’s renaissance crown, and still shines as brightly all these years later........❤

[@tickk5448]

Pocahontas is, an incredibly harmful film. She was indeed a real person, but she was sexually abused and antagonised by every single white person who met her, INCLUDING John Smith who they made her LOVE INTEREST. It's frankly disgusting that the movie framed the native american genocides as "both sides were just as bad as one another1!1!1!!!1" and "it wasn't all of them it was just one bad apple that wanted to kill the natives!!!1!1!" If you remove it from the extremely offensive and disgusting context, then all you have left is a boring film. Colours of the Wind is the only thing from Pocahontas remotely worth watching.

I would disagree that Pocahontas was one of the weaker movies in the Disney renaissance. I think it just did not focus on the actions of the villain. They focused more on how both groups of people were fighting over assumptions about the other. That was the true villain. Hence the song savages was incredible. As both sides were fighting for similar reasons. Its a good story about conflict within society and how we treat each other Pocahontas was a good protagonist and the music was incredible. I'll admit John Smith was boring and so was the villain guy. But the movie established a conflict beyond them almost.

Peter was luring kids to Neverland, where they never grow up, thereby cutting short any future potential they could bring to society as grown ups. Captain Hook, if I remember correctly, never actually directly attacked the Lost Boys, only Pan. My theory is that Hook was actually trying to stop Pan, and get the Lost Boys home to their families. So Peter Pan was the real villain, and a bully to Hook, the actual hero of the story.

The guy literally took over his own flesh and blood's Kingdom and almost starved them to death. And most of everything happened because they underestimated him.

I think the reason that Bellweather was as bad of a twist villain was because we didn't get to see cracks in the mask she put up. Her whole motivation was that she wanted prey to be the defining factor because of sheer numbers as opposed to predators. Basically her motivation was racism in regard to the predator/prey dynamic animals have, and thinks that prey should be top dog. However, since there was no cracks in the mask she had on, we never suspected her to be a villain. If she had said something like 'those predators would've probably thought twice about crossing us prey', then realize what she said and corrected herself, it would've made us stop and do a double take, like 'wait, hold up, did she just say 'those predators' and 'us prey'?
