Top 10 Best Animated Movie Villains

The Top Ten
1 Scar from The Lion King Scar is the main antagonist of Disney's 1994 animated feature film, The Lion King. He was the second son of Ahadi and Uru — who were, at one time, King and Queen of the Pride Lands — the younger brother of Mufasa, and the uncle of Simba.

Born by the greatest company of animation, lived and died with the voice of the awesome Jeremy Irons.
Inspired by Hitler, history's most evil human.
Without magical powers, he destroyed almost an entire continent. No other Disney villain has done that before.
Even for a lion, Scar shown to have more human cruelty than any other villain.
He also made the most crying moment of Disney history, Mufasa's death.
He even sang the greatest villain song, about killing his own brother and his nephew. That's even more sick than Claude Frollo

2 Lord Shen from Kung Fu Panda 2

The movie in of itself is pleasing and aesthetically beautiful. He uses his feathers as an attack and defense. The eye touch on his feathers relating to peacocks usually having that kind of pattern on their tail feathers is a brilliant way of interpreting how he truly gets away with so much. Tricking those into looking into them and stunning them and yet also using it as an attack method. He seemed so bothered by the fact he could be defeated unlike other villains. He thought he was invincible yet KNEW he wasn't because someone was going to defeat him. He was honestly the best villain in the franchise. At least in my opinion.

3 Judge Claude Frollo from Disney's The Hunchback of Notre Dame

As a Christian frollo in my opinion is the most evil villain, for he does so many evil things in the name of the lord. And he dies by falling into hell! (I think, that's what they made it look like) with no powers, and the fact that he's an old man makes his evil more impressive. He lusts for, and gropes Esmeralda at one point, keeps Quasimodo prisoner for all his life, just because he's ugly, and burns innocent families house down for no reason, other than that he was slightly annoyed! Frollo is my all time favorite Disney villain, and he is no doubt the most evil

4 Hades from Hercules

He's also one of the gods in mythology in Greece. But the Disney version looks so sofisticated compared to the original story of Greek gods and other adaptations besides Disney.

Cool, composed, and hilarious. I mean what else can I say?

5 Chernabog from Fantasia Chernabog is a Disney villain from the 1940s film Fantasia, and in his segment, "A Night on Bald Mountain".
6 Lord Farquaad from Shrek Lord Farquaad is the main antagonist of the 2001 animated feature film, Shrek, as well as Shrek 4D. He is voiced by John Lithgow.

"Ya think he's compensating for something? " Yes, Shrek. Yes I do.

7 Syndrome from The Incredibles Syndrome (born as Buddy Pine) is the primary antagonist in The Incredibles. He wanted to be super like the others, even though he had no powers. He was Mr. Incredible's #1 fan, and dubbed himself "Incrediboy," but he was rejected by Mr. Incredible. Angered after being refused, he developed an evil plan... read more

The result of a crushed childhood dream, Jason Lee's Syndrome rocked the big screen with his unique hairdo and even more unique superpowers.

Syndrome is a perfect combination of smart, funny, menacing, and nerdy just the best villain in an animated movie

8 Lord Victor Quartermaine from Wallace & Gromit: The Curse of the Were-Rabbit

While Wallace and his silent companion Gromit ran a humane pest control business, Lord Quartermaine and his pitbull were a little more ruthless.

Lord Victor Quartermaine is truly the ultimate evil of the Wallace and Gromit cinematic universe.

A hunter with old fashioned tactics involving pest control with a small pitbull for a sidekick.

9 Tai Lung from Kung Fu Panda

Not only is he based on my most favorite animal, he is also a villain whose overbearing pride prevented him from being good. His lust for more power clouded his mind, and was willing to kill even his own master and foster father to achieve his goal. He deserved more screen time then he had.

A very complex character that deserves to return in a sequel to the franchise. I feel like he can be a hero again despite of his past deeds. Still, I would love to see him return and learn more from this amazing character.

10 Mrs. Tweedy from Chicken Run

She was sick and tired of making miniscule profits so she bought a pie machine to kill the chickens.

An insane villain voiced by Miranda Richardson of all people.

She's the brains behind the 2 Tweedys. Mr Tweedy is the lacky of the pair.

The Contenders
11 Jafar from Aladdin Jafar is the main antagonist of Disney's 31st full length animated feature film Aladdin. Jafar is introduced as the sinister Royal Vizier to Agrabah's Sultan who desires power over Agrabah.

Ok really number 11 Jafar? No he should be number one! He's so hilarious and sarcastic and he is so cute in his robe with black and red on him aw he's so cute

A certain top 10. He has done anything he could to win. However he gave a blank in the law. It makes his failure completed.

LOSER! And he looks like he's a thousand years old!

12 President Business from The LEGO Movie

His hairpiece is just scary, and he doesn't care about anyone. In the first five minutes he's already made Vitruvius blind, and then he goes on to kill him!

Did you know that he became a good guy in the end?

13 Lotso from Toy Story 3 Lots-o'-Huggin' Bear ("Lotso" for short) is the main antagonist of Toy Story 3. He takes over Sunny Side Day Care and makes all the other toys work for him.

Forced his former best friends, chuckles and Big Baby, to serve him, had any toy who disobeyed him killed, and was a downright tyrant.

He might smell sweet but he's a rotten strawberry! I never thought I'd see the day I hated a teddy bear...

HEY! Where is Captain Chantel Dubois from Madagascar 3! She is one of the best villains!

14 Russ Cargill from The Simpsons Movie

This guy is mad with power and overall sadistic. He's smart he's funny, and really underrated. I mean the place is over polluted by homers pig crap silo, so quarantine the town if you must but don't trap the people, and when the place gets worse and worse, and soon Springfield gets driven into an apocalypse, so what does he do? He plans to blow it up with a nuclear bomb! And when Bart and homer save the town, he still wants them to die, by pointing a shotgun at them.. But his defeat was pretty pathetic by just getting a rock dropped on him by a toddler, but still not a bad villain for the Simpsons first movie.

15 Gaston from Beauty and the Beast Gaston is a fictional character who appears in Walt Disney Pictures' 30th animated feature film Beauty and the Beast.

LeFou, I'm afraid I've been thinking... (A dangerous pastime) I know...but that wacky old coot is Belle's father and his sanity's only so-so...

16 Saddam Hussien from South Park: Bigger, Longer and Uncut

Not many animated villains have been able to sexually abuse Satan of all people, yet Saddam Hussein has.

Saddam is more evil and crazy than Satan himself! Satan even stated that Saddam is insane!

He's really funny in this movie.

17 Sharptooth from The Land Before Time

This dinosaur is just evil. It kills the main character's mom, pretends to be dead, destroys Littlefoot's treestar (which his mom gave him), and almost kills Petrie. All because of accidentally losing an eye! Not to mention, aside from the carnotours from Dinosaur and the tyrannosaurus from Jurassic Park, Sharptooth is the only dinosaur to ever scare me. Also, he rips off flesh on camera! You know, for kids. Sharptooth has been terrifying the Earth for the last 65 million years.

He doesn't really get any character development, but he doesn't need to. You can say he's pure evil by his appearance. No movie (even Jurassic Park) ever managed to catch T-rex's bestial rageful nature so well.

18 Mr. Waternoose from Monsters Inc.
19 Fairy Godmother from Shrek 2

A drop of desire, a pinch of passion, and just a hint of lust...

Much better than rumplestiltskin prince charming or lord #@$%&*! wad I mean farquad

20 Megamind from Megamind

Villain in the sense that Metro man was a superhero and for once the supervillain triumphed.

Voiced by Will Ferrell, the real villain was voiced by Jonah Hill

21 Ebenezer Scrooge from Disney's A Christmas Carol
22 Oogie Boogie from The Nightmare Before Christmas
23 The Coachman from Pinocchio

He's literally the first Disney villain to get away with everything as he's never punished for his actions.

24 Ivan Ivanovitch from The Adventures of Tintin
25 Frieza from Dragon Ball Z Freeza (Pronounced "Frieza" in the Funimation dub) is fictional character in the Dragon Ball series by Akira Toriyama as the primary antagonist of the Freeza Saga. He is a galactic tyrant who governs the Planet Trade Organization and is feared by the universe for his sadistic and brutal nature. He is... read more
