aladdin had to steal to live and the difference between him and jafar he was aladdin's foil in that the street rat could've been like him if he let his past weigh him down(if anything would say razoul and the guards are bigger villains as they really don't do a good job protecting the princess even when jafar takes over they just disappear)
especially compared to the original where he was a villain him meeting buzz and sid had getting scared coming as he would've had huge problems if he had continued being destructive.
king triton does have a undertone of abusing his authority unintentionally a bit that ariel wanting to go to the human world could also be wanting to be free from him despite his caring intentions though with ursula it's more if he had stopped to listen to his daughter properly explain what's dangerous about humans while hearing the good instead of leaving her to get in danger.
would put elsa and anna's parents higher as especially after 2 they are really horrible parents more villains than the twist villain being completely at fault for the films conflict instead of taking elsa to a doctor/bringing more from outside to help.
compared to the ringmaster who was just doing his job protecting the people from a rampaging elephant(which could've killed dumbo as can happen with elephants accidentally in real life) those elephants were jerks that deserved getting scared witless by timothy.
hook's worse as he crossed the line trying to kill the kids but with getting peter is pretty justified as he cut off his hand causing him to be chased by the crocodile and peter's pretty callous to a disturbing level like nearly getting wendy drowned by the mermaids or the other times the kids almost easily got killed.
those nicelanders really were jerks and kinda did need a scene of ralph/felix with calhoun's help calling them out as it was their fault for what happened.
honorable mention: don't think aurora's parents are villains as even for the time that was a huge jump for maleficent to go just for being snubbed(when for all we do know she had it deserved for her actions/be interesting seeing what her gift would've been with how some works imply she would've behaved.

Man this is some low effort nonsense, even by listicle standards.
You wouldn't know it from modern Disney, but characters with no flaws are actually boring and badly written.
In all these cases the films are quite aware of the characteristics in question; they pay them appropriate attention and treat them with appropriate context. For instance, Kuzko is supposed to be a spoiled, selfish, unlikeable jerk who has to learn his lesson. And Dumbo is a subtle and unusual Disney film with no real villain, in which the elephants are overtly written as just about the most unlikeable and antagonistic characters in the entire film.
Daniel-san was the real villain was an example of humorously contrarian analysis that was carefully thought out, and ultimately completely tongue-in-cheek self-aware kidding and a whole lot of fun; it deserved to birth a sitcom storyline, music video, and eventually hit five-season TV series. This here is just paycheck-cashing trash.

This should be called characters with flaws. For some examples; Woody loved all of Andys toys, but it was hard to get Buzz to understand that he was a toy and not a real space ranger, especially with the way he was acting until he realized Woody was right about him all along and Andy still loved Woody and the other toys just as much he was just having a little fun with Buzz as a new toy. King Triton was no villain, he just seemed to have ended up with a major hatred for humans ever since they killed killed his wife and he swore he would never lose any of his 7 daughters the way he lost their mother. Aladdins story was a difficult challenge to go through so he could not be a street rat all his life. Villains like Ursula and Jafar had gone too far and deserved what they got. Sids was probably somewhat different but in the poor toyss mind, they deserved to be saved and Sid got what he deserved for torturing even other peoples toys like even his own sisters toys.

I feel Triton's prejudice towards humans felt more like racism. He talks that all humans are barbarians and incapable of any kind of emotions. Thinking that they are a race that only strive on greed, gluttony, and pride. Now of course, we do learn in the 3rd movie as to why he has such hatred towards humans, but until then, we never knew why he had such hatred for another race. I of course do get it that he just wants to protect his daughter but he does it the wrong way. He's so caught up in his anger and hatred towards them that he never tries to sit down and explain to Ariel why he considers them dangerous. He could have easily sat down with her and try to explain and tell her that her mother was killed by humans and at least have her see why he considers them dangerous. It never happens though cause he just keeps on ranting about how evil and barbaric they are and never tries to speak with her rationally.

Some of this is BS!
Especially with Joy from Inside Out. SADNESS is the actual villain. All Joy was doing was trying to make a plan to make everything go smoothly with Riley. Sadness ruins everything when she touches the chore memory for no reason at all after Joy keeps telling her not to. Then Joy wants to get rid of a memory that was just made, and I understand that sadness was telling her she cant do that. And they fussed over it by grabbing it from each other which causes them to move to the spot where they get sucked up and away from headquarters. None of that would have happened if Sadness stayed away from the chore memories.
So Sadness is the actual villain of the movie. Not Joy.
Also, Aladdin is incorrect as well. Yeah hes a thief and a con artist. But hes not exactly the cause for all the chaos to happen later on in the movie.

Someone's awful preachy 8B. Though in all seriousness some of these feel a bit forced. I can't say its a flawed protagonist. Its hard to quote by word but I remember someone said that an antagonist of a story doesn't have to be a villain just someone who creates contrast with the story and some of these entries feel more like that.
No I think some like the bully elephants and Kuzco/Merida were technically by story villains. But also feels like you cherry picked. I mean blaming King/Queen in sleeping beauty. uhhh we really gonna say a witch has a right to want a child dead just cause she didn't get an invitation to a baby's party? And then there's Triton/Simba. hehhhhh

reply

Yeah. Woody being like that was the point, the same way it was the point that the other toys were perfectly happy to let him be that way until they decided they'd rather be a lynch mob. It was actually necessary for Woody to be that way as he and Buzz were foils, with Buzz being too deluded/naive. A 'flawed protagonist' (Aladdin, Woody) is not the same as being a villain and it actually makes them more real. Everyone knows someone kind of like Aladdin or Woody, which is why they're relatable and we're happy to watch them change and grow (with both becoming less insecure and more accepting of themselves/others.

Sid is like 11-13. At that age, I'm pretty sure he has at least a basic knowledge of right and wrong. As for Ariel, she was acting almost like Triton with her daughter in the sequel. Sure, she didn't screeched at her in rage, but she did lecture her and forbade her going anywhere near the sea which resulted in Melody finding out the truth herself and getting her in danger. I think if Ariel after finding out that Melody was going into the sea she would decide that is finally time to know the truth and just sat her down and explained to her why she can't go to the sea, then none of that would happen.

Peter pan is not an adult in the body of a child that would imply he grows mentally which he doesn't he doesn't grow mentally or physically he's literally stuck as a child through and through forever in both movies his character doesn't change or grow only the people around him do so this implications that he's some creep is wrong if anything he's in constant danger of getting manipulated he also has no true sympathy since he's a child and unlike normal children never learns it those cutting off hooks hand he doesn't have enough emotional intelligence to see how messed up it is
reply

Triton, Woody, Aladdin and Simba should not be on this list. Triton was a father who was looking out for Ariel. He could have handled it differently but he is no villain. Woody redeemed himself at the end and he reacted out of jealousy and frankly, Sid was a horrible kid. Aladdin was trying to survive and his conscience did catch up to him when he realized how his dishonesty went too far. Villains dont have a conscience. Simba was a target even after Scar was gone, he was trying to protect his family and rightfully so.
reply

The enchantress was not the villan yes she shouldn't have casted the spell on everyone and prehaps she souldnt have made it a or else you spend all eternity like this but in my opinion she did to him what he dud to her he didnt alow her rest just coz of how she looked so she made it si people wont be kind to hom just coz of how he looked a classic example of do to other what you want done to you. Although again it should have been just him the ithers shouldnt have had to suffer coz of him
reply

Triton TECHNICALLY had reasons for his disdain I mean isn't that why Aquaman and Namor's story or kingdoms don't like people. I mean just saying. the literal present is why humans aren't well liked 8B. And plus sorry I love Ariel but real life wise. Pft she ran off for a guy she didn't know a thing about. Its no wonder Triton was mad. Simba's a victim of a murder attempt/childhood PTSD and to be fair. uhhh Kovu did TRY to murder him. Soooo yeah not completely off
reply

Triton was trying to protect Ariel, yes. But he went about it the wrong way. You don't shelter your child away from the world, you teach them how to deal with it's dangers. You don't destroy your child's belongings and traumatize them to show your love and concern. You end up with your child being terrified of you, and in some cases, just like Ariel, they run away. Triton clearly loves Ariel, but in the end, he drove her away.
reply

Adding one more little flaw on Triton's part. At the end of The Little Mermaid, Triton makes Ariel human so she can be with Eric. But what if she wanted to come back to visit at the very least? If Triton could make Ariel human, then his magic must be on par with Ursula's so how come he can't just whip up something to turn her back into a mermaid if she wanted? In giving Ariel what she wanted, he basically exiled her from her home.
reply

All of woodys so cqlled crimes are justified (although it was an accident) he knocked buzz because all of the anger his friends caused him against buzz and the only other major so called crime is his scary against sid because sid murdered destroyed and swapped the parts of his toys so you think about it very very closely its andys toys who are the Real villan and dont tell me they aren't excuses because they are no matter WHAT
reply

Doc Hudson and andies toys should be here Doc Reason: Although mcqueen was a jark the entire film doc Hudson prevented him from going home only because he ruined radiator springs Toy Reason: they neglected woody and trusted Mr potato head who rc told that woody murdered buzz rc isn't villainous due to him redeeming moments after mr potato and his friends realized woody was telling the truth
reply

Gene was probably the worst Nicelander of all. He was the one who kinda pushed Ralph into going Turbo and once the game was put out of order, he put the blame entirely on him. Well, sure Ralph went Turbo and his actions caused a lot of damage but it wouldn't have happened if it wasn't for the Nicelanders, especially for Gene. God, I hate him.
reply

Overbearing is not a trait for a villain. I mean, maybe outcasting a couple witches may be another trait. But seriously, ariel is a teenager who doesn't have any authority to leave her home just to be with some guy she was observing from afar. And yes, Ursula did cheat, but she also keeps her word to ariel.
reply

For the most part, I completely disagree with this list. But if there's any character who should have been added, it would be Elena from Coco. Not only did she crush Miguel's dreams and instruments, even if family is more important, but she also tried to make the whole family forget about Hector.
reply

Triton was a father who lost his wife to humans. His reaction was over the top but villainous? Woody didn't try to take buzz out of the picture that was a literal accident. Aladdin wished to become a prince so he could see Jasmine again how is that remotely close to anything Jafar did?
reply

Ariel's mother was killed by humans and Ariel is in love with human prince Eric and Ariel was right and because she saved Eric from drowning and her father did know about it and he destroyed Ariel's human treasures and i feel sad for Ariel and Ariel didn't killed by humans and she is ok
reply

Aladdin and Jafar's deceptions are not comparable. Jafar was willing to kill to get the throne and Aladdin just wanted to be with Jasmine and couldn't get past the gates without being a prince. He never wanted power and was willing to give it all up anyway to keep his promise to Genie.
reply

Jealousy is what makes a villain sometimes. And in woody's case, it drove him into wanting to fight buzz to the bone chill. Glad he managed to change his ways and show empathy towards other toys he meets. Like gabby gabby. Her actions were sinister, but she just wants to be loved
reply

I challenge anyone to watch Baby [of] Mine from Dumbo and not shed tears. All he wants is to be with his mother, and for most of the film, he can't, and it hurts him, so when he gets to be with her (albeit through her being caged, he gets that parental comfort he's long sought
reply

This list kind of makes sense King Triton being on the list could also explain why Javier Bardem is playing him in the upcoming remake. But I do consider Tinkerbell a bigger villain than Peter Pan which could explain why Tinks films were bad.
reply

I'm surprised that maui from moana is not on the list because he did steal the heart of te fiti therefore endangering every mortal in the flim plus he did kinda try to kill moana by trapping her in his cave and by throwing her of the boat
reply

I love everyone is always putting the blame on King Triton and not on Ariel who literally sold her father out. She was literally willing to throw away her whole life for someone shes never met. Thats pretty bratty, if you ask me.
reply

Oggy in Oggy and the Cockroaches (who is not owned by Disney) is technically the Villain Protagonist, rarely gives Cockroaches the foods they need, and also just hates the roaches for little or no reason at all.
reply

The Emperors New Groove in my opinion is a redemption story. Kuzco probably would have become an actual villain if he was never turned into a lama and pacha helps him become a way better person throughout the movie.
reply

I think hades should have made the list cause, he might a little manipulative but he just wants a break from the underworld. Plus Zeus was always kind of a pushy jerk to him if you watch the series.
