Lord Farquaad, he deserved to be eaten by Dragon.

[@BowserMovies1989]

“Shrek 2,” “Shrek,” “Megamind,” “Sinbad,” and “Wallace and Gromit”

[@trinaq]

"Celebrity marriages. They never last, do they?" I adore this line, and Farquaad's defeat is immensely satisfying!

[@slystone4892]

Yes indeed. A classic.

[@roguejester4986]

Funny, and mostly true.

[@DanGamingFan2406]

To me, the most satisfying villain defeat belongs to the greatest DreamWorks villain: Lord Shen. He weaponozed fireworks, massacred Po's village, reigned fear on Gongmen City, and killed his own second in command for refusing to shoot his own men. Eventually, though, his attempt to rule over China is undone, by the warrior of black and white. Refusing to let go of the past as Po had, the deposed peacock prince tries to finish him off, cutting the ropes that keep his creation from crushing him. He was his own undoing and, in his final few seconds, finally accepted his fate. Ironic and poetic.

I was already going to say it, but thank you.

[@danielleary9265]

[@roguejester4986]

Yes, but technically that was by Shen's own terms.

[@sarahsims6164]

What about Pitch Black from Rise of the Guardians? You can't deny that being dragged into your lair by your fears is a pretty gruesome defeat.

[@waheedabdullah6371]

Could've included: Rumpelstiltskin losing his goose DuBois going to Madagascar Makunga dealing with the old lady Margot turning back into a regular wolf or Dr. Emilia being forced to play with Fun Guy (even if Kipo and the Age of Wonderbeasts isn't a movie)

[@adamlennard1828]

Feeling Big Jack Horner should be mentioned too.

[@MandMWeekly]

Not to mention: Professor Marmalade goes down like the bad guy he really is. "The Bad Guys" (He tries to frame the bad guys for stealing the meteorite and robbing his own charities, but gets outwited and sent to prison after he's framed for being the Crimson Paw) Big Jack Horner's wish doesn't come true "Puss in Boots: The Last Wish" (He sacrifices his Henchmen, called the Baker's Dozen, to get him to the Wishing Star; but even his bottomless bag of magic items couldn't help him get it. Jack and Jill feel the Giant Goose's wrath by getting stomped on by it "Puss in Boots" Lord Shen gets defeated by Po, the very enemy who stood in his way to conquering the valley of peace (Kung Fu Panda 2)

[@zakirstocks9514]

​@Bride of Bronze Eye, or Science Princess That's my Most Favorite too from *Shrek the Third!*

[@TheCommenterDragon]

The defeats of these DreamWorks villains weren't just satisying but also well deserved! Just about the same as any other villain in an animated film.

[@prowolf633]

Yeah, but they should’ve killed Queen Barb, she didn’t deserve to be forgiven! Stupid G-Rated Trolls!

[@bennymora3086]

And that's what's great about it!😈

[@erainmartinez8175]

[@chasehedges6775]

Dreamworks is my childhood and and their villains were always great.

[@trinaq]

Preach, next to Disney, they played a vital role in shaping my childhood.

[@franciswachtel3271]

I'll say that every time I watched Spirit make that risky leap of faith and saw the Colonel allowing him and Little Creek go, I just couldn't help but feel shocked (in a good way)and pleased the leap paid off for the duo

[@krististarosta6736]

Why wasn’t Professor Marmalade on the list? Even though everyone thinks he’s the Crimson Paw, he definitely earned his defeat.

[@vermiciousknid2456]

Who is Professor Marmalade?

[@krististarosta6736]

@@vermiciousknid2456 He’s in The Bad Guys. Have you seen that movie? If you haven’t, I don’t wanna spoil it for you.

[@ludonymous526]

If a Part 2 makes it here, he deserves the spot.

[@BlazerK1914]

DreamWorks animation is phenomenal. Prince of Egypt and Sinbad are those instances, and I wish future animated films goes back to that style.

[@dreamguardian8320]

I wish that too, for 2D hand drawn animation is the true magic of creation. I even wish we had more of Don Bluth's animated movies around also.

[@tdi21]

Spirit will always give me chills with the nonverbal end between enemies Whereas Sinbad is more like saying "To be continued..." And, of course, Dragon is queen of defeating villains in the best way possible.

[@mightymorphincosmicfuryrangers]

I liked how in “Monsters Vs Aliens” Gallaxhar went down with his own ship when his escape pod malfunctions and the entire ship self-destructs sending him to his grave.

[@josephharrison5639]

Spirit is a criminally underrated movie

[@bahesb2419]

What about lord shen? He tried so hard the entire movie to escape his fate his fate but when his fate Finally came, he accepted it and died, knowing that he has failed and must now accept it. It‘s very poetic and interesting

[@maxmeidl4909]

Nice to see them doing something for an animated movie company… other than Disney.

[@amayajones68]

To me, Eris’ defeat was the most satisfying because she knew he was right. The look on her face after Sinbad said, “And wasn’t there something about being bound for all eternity,” was the icing on the cake. She had to give the book back, and the glowing cross/X she made over her heart? *chef’s kiss*

[@letstalkanime3296]

I think Jack Horner should have been on this list as well. His defeat was really satisfying to watch

[@katemiller4084]

I think my favourite defeat of a villain in dream works is from Kung Fu panda 2. Not only because Shen is one of the greatest villains of all time in animation, but because throughout the film his main arc was him trying to escape his fate, by killing the panda and later trying to kill and stop Po and the furious five. In the end, he sealed his own fate by accidentally cutting the ropes that was holding the cannon in place whilst fighting Po. But instead of trying to escape his death when he saw the cannon fall, he finally decided to accept his fate and closed his eyes accepting his death and perhaps finding peace. Plus Po using inner peace to deflect those cannonballs and the last one turning into the Ying and Yang symbol before firing it at Shen and his army was also stunning and amazing to watch. ❤

[@CaptainCretaceous91]

I'm disappointed the mares smelling Pitch's fear didn't make the cut.

[@BigFella117]

“Skadoosh” is probably my favorite line from Po in Kung Fu Panda

[@anthonynambo6426]

I always found Manndible’s demise quite satisfying. Greedy, cruel and fear of weakness. Leading his own soldier ants to their deaths and attempting to kill the queen and her colony and taking the princess for himself. It was nice to see his leadership and his plans fall down hill. (No pun intended)

[@sessionshannah]

Gotta love Spirit he sure showed the colonel 😊😊

[@prowolf633]

We need more satisfying defeats and deaths in future Dreamworks movies, so we must hope that the mermaid in Ruby Gillman won’t just redeem like that! We’re insisting on forgiving far too much! (Also I hate it when villains get redeemed just because their still young! Young villains can die too and queen bees deserve to crash and burn with no second chances!)

[@annafowdy]

DreamWorks' last two villains haven't been redeemed. One went to jail and the other was sucked into oblivion.

[@prowolf633]

@@annafowdy yeah but they were older male villains, you can never predict when writers have biases of protecting villains who are women and kids/teens.

[@gamerwatchproductions8684]

I like it when Prof. Marmalade gets blamed for a crime he didn't commit in the Bad Guys.

[@tdi21]

Is it weird I can imagine John Lithgow being on a list of best animated villains voice actors? Alongside legends like Jeremy Irons, Tim Curry, Gary Oldman, Jude Law - Rise of the Guardians - and Tony Jay. Whether Disney or other, there are animated movies that get it damn right with villains' voice actors. Hint-Hint Mojo...

[@manofgod0813]

YESSSSS! Loved seeing Farquaad getting eaten. But one Honorable Mention I wished for was Drago from "How to Train Your Dragon 2." That was sweet too...especially after all that happened!

[@tracidavis3565]

I love Shark Tale, glad it got some love in this list.

[@denikehi4579]

Number 3 was well deserved and damn right!!!!

[@James-es9em]

Why wasn't Marmalade on this list? The most satisfying part of his defeat was the look on his face when the meteor (and his house) blew up.

[@CodyFairlessLee]

I like MADAGASCAR, ANTZ, CHICKEN RUN, and the honorable mentions of MEGAMIND, TURBO, and WALLACE & GROMIT. I also love SHARK TALE, HOW TO TRAIN YOUR DRAGON, THE PRINCE OF EGYPT, the SHREK franchise, and the honorable mention of KUNG FU PANDA.

[@CartoonPhreak]

Correct CAPTAIN UNDERPANTS: THE FIRST EPIC MOVIE could be on this list since it has Professor Tinkletrousers’ defeat at the end of the film

[@CodyFairlessLee]

@@CartoonPhreak yeah that movie is good too!

[@CartoonPhreak]

@@CodyFairlessLee Exactly As much as SPIRIT UNTAMED which Hendricks (the antagonist) was defeated by Lucky Prescott (a descendant of Nova Prescott)

[@CodyFairlessLee]

@@CartoonPhreak that movie looked dumb just like the Netflix series. No offense.

[@CartoonPhreak]

@@CodyFairlessLee I know that but in one episode of the cartoon, Lucky is definitely shown in her pink dress, causing her to become a marshmallow

[@masonplacher7096]

Don’t forget Shantal DuBois from Madagascar 3: Europe’s Most Wanted”.

[@cristinamacabrerapacheco2838]

It's Captain Chantel Dubois, but yes, her defeat sent on Madagascar after being defeated by Alex and the gang, was really satisfying.

[@NCTStudio]

She became the one thing she swore to destroy

[@julkasteven8198]

She deserves it after everything She did with those poor Animals in the past.

[@alexhidalgo7110]

Dreamwork is always my favorite

[@samuelmerced2018]

Chef Bergen's defeat and death is the most satisfying DreamWorks villain defeat in my opinion since ahe tried to massacre innocent trolls and nearly killed children out ofa last for power.

[@tymoviedatabase7788]

What about Marmalade getting exposed as the real criminal when Snake swapped the real meteorite with the fake one? Total karma lol 😂

[@marcusyates3044]

Kung Fu Panda VS How to Train Your Dragon!

[@ZorLink21]

I’m really glad Tai Lung wasn’t on this list but an honorable mention. He was more broken than evil. He deserved a better life.

[@jefferybaker6866]

It's not on the list but Jack Horners death in Puss in Boots 2 was extremely satisfying. He was more than willing to let all his loyal servents die, threatened to shoot a puppy in the face and wanted to claim all the magic in the world for himself just because he got stood up by Pinocchio. Watching him get blown up with the wishing star was oh so satisfying

[@olvialee7221]

[@julieta8683]

Lord Farquaad getting eaten by Dragon will always be my favorite dreamworks villain defeat next to the demise of Fairy Godmother of course from Shrek my favorite dreamworks movie franchise 😁👏🏻

[@CarolHardesty]

My favorite moments are #8 and "Skadoosh!" Also, if you guys decide to update this list in the future, may I suggest adding "Pitch Gets Dragged Away By His Own Nightmares" from 'Rise of the Guardians' and "The Alpha Protects Them All" from 'How to Train Your Dragon 2'?

[@thealextrifier]

Big Jack Horner’s demise was glorious.

[@SonicJrandSarah]

I think you mean "Lord Farquad becomes dinner." It was evening when he got eaten. As for some satisfying Dreamworks villain defeats I like would be the defeat of Marmalade from The Bad Guys and Big Jack Horner from Puss In Boots the Last Wish.

[@ZodiacArden]

Kung fu panda was great. The satisfaction to the villains deads were great 😊😊😊

[@TheImaginator972]

I enjoy Rameses and the Egyptians downfall from Prince Of Egypt, I really do sympathize with the pharaoh to losing everything and of course the brother he loves.

I actually like Professor Rubert Marmalade’s defeat in the Bad Guys movie, because he is not only outsmarted by the reformed titular Bad Guys by believing he has come to return the meteorite, but it turns out to be a fake, because Mr. Snake actually used a lamp in the shape of the meteorite to deceive Marmalade that the Bad Guys took the Meteorite in hopes of stopping the mind control effects on the thousands of Guinea pigs he brainwashed, but the real meteorite was back at Marmalade’s mansion and set to overdrive, causing the thing to explode and destroying everything Marmalade had, and although he was innocent of the theft of the meteorite and all of the charity money, but he was instead arrested and sent to jail for the theft of a rare diamond he stole from the kindhearted reformed thief, Diane Foxxington, aka the Crimson Paw, and what I really liked about this villain defeat, is that it’s the double whammy that gets Marmalade screwed at the end of the film, and even his assistant, Cuddles actually ditches Marmalade as he was getting arrested for his crimes, and talk about a non Disney henchman that’s not so loyal to his boss

Here's how I rank the Shrek movies: Shrek 2 is the best, then Shrek 4, Shrek 3, & Shrek 1 last. I know a lot of people say Shrek 3 is the worst, but I feel Shrek is too unlikable in the 1st film & Lord Farquad isn't as greta a villain as the others.

[@seangriffin2053]

It's hard for me to see the Red Death as a villain when it was just an animal following its natural instinct for both food and survival. It is a great movie, but I think HTTYD's true villain was ignorance. Sometimes I think Dreamworks gets overlooked but they have great movies with awesome characters.
