Top 10 Best Animated Movie Villains
Born from the greatest animation company, lived and died with the voice of the awesome Jeremy Irons. Inspired by Hitler, history's most evil human, Scar, without magical powers, destroyed almost an entire continent. No other Disney villain has done that before.
Even for a lion, Scar shows more human cruelty than any other villain. He also created the most heartbreaking moment in Disney history, Mufasa's death. He even sang the greatest villain song about killing his own brother and nephew, which is even more sickening than Claude Frollo.
The movie itself is pleasing and aesthetically beautiful. He uses his feathers for both attack and defense. The eye pattern on his feathers, relating to peacocks, is a brilliant way of interpreting how he gets away with so much. He tricks others into looking at them, stunning them, and also uses it as an attack method.
He seemed more bothered by the possibility of defeat than other villains. He thought he was invincible, yet knew he wasn't because someone was destined to defeat him. He was honestly the best villain in the franchise, at least in my opinion.
As a Christian, I believe Frollo is the most evil villain because he does so many evil things in the name of the Lord. He dies by falling into hell (or at least that's what it looks like). Without powers, and being an old man, his evilness is more impressive.
He lusts for and gropes Esmeralda, keeps Quasimodo prisoner all his life because he's ugly, and burns an innocent family's house down just because he's slightly annoyed. Frollo is my all-time favorite Disney villain, and he is no doubt the most evil.
"Ya think he's compensating for something?" Yes, Shrek. Yes, I do.
He's also one of the gods in Greek mythology. However, the Disney version looks so sophisticated compared to the original story of Greek gods and other adaptations besides Disney.
Cool, composed, and hilarious. I mean, what else can I say?
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.
She was sick and tired of making minuscule 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 two Tweedys. Mr. Tweedy is the lackey of the pair.
Not only is he based on my favorite animal, but he is also a villain whose overbearing pride prevented him from being good. His lust for more power clouded his mind, and he was willing to kill even his own master and foster father to achieve his goal. He deserved more screen time than 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 his past deeds. Still, I would love to see him return and learn more about this amazing character.
While Wallace and his silent companion Gromit run a humane pest control business, Lord Quartermaine and his pit bull are 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.
The Newcomers
Okay, 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 it. Aw, he's so cute.
He 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.
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?
This guy is mad with power and overall sadistic. He's smart, funny, and really underrated. The town is over-polluted by Homer's pig crap silo, so quarantining it is necessary, but don't trap the people. As things get worse and Springfield is driven into an apocalypse, he plans to blow it up with a nuclear bomb. Even when Bart and Homer save the town, he still wants them to die, pointing a shotgun at them.
However, his defeat was pretty pathetic, just getting a rock dropped on him by a toddler. Still, not a bad villain for The Simpsons' first movie.
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.
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.
A drop of desire, a pinch of passion, and just a hint of lust.
This dinosaur is just evil. He 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.
Aside from the Carnotaurus 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 tell he's pure evil by his appearance. No movie, not even Jurassic Park, has managed to capture a T-rex's bestial, rageful nature so well.
Villain in the sense that Metro Man was a superhero and, for once, the supervillain triumphed.
He's literally the first Disney villain to get away with everything as he's never punished for his actions.
