Bird Jabdjab, "Alice in Wonderland"

Jabberwock was quite frightening because of its huge wings and breath, erupting lightning, but the bird of Jabbjab was much worse. This bird worked for the Red Queen and was evil and bloodthirsty. The work of the bird was to seize new victims, which the queen could turn into furniture. As she could kill the victims, the screen was not shown, but it looked very ominous creation.

The Dragon of Maleficent, "The Sleeping Beauty"

Maleficente - this is one of the most famous villains of Disney, powerful in any form - in human or in dragon. In the latter, it is almost invincible - a horrific black and purple dragon is able to fight anyone. Maleficent proved to be so strong that it took the joint efforts of the three good fairies and Prince Philip to defeat it. In the form of a dragon Maleficent could exhale fire and fly. This is the most powerful dragon of all fairy-tale creatures.

Hydra, Hercules

Firebird, "Fantasy 2000"

As the name implies, it is a bird, completely created from fire and lava. A fire bird sleeps in the crater of a volcano, but if it wakes up, an eruption occurs and the forest lights up.

Chernaboh, "Fantasy"

This is an incredible villain, almost a devil in the flesh. He has huge wings, horns and fiery eyes. Can you imagine a more sinister image? He is filled with anger. Chernaboh appears on Brokeback Mountain in Walpurgis Night and awakens ghosts and demons to life.

It's no secret that in children's cartoons, good should triumph over evil. However, they often produce a greater impression on young spectators than positive heroes, they even have their fans. Especially indicative in this regard is the interest, which is caused by the bright villains of Disney, who are introduced by the creators of the famous cartoons to revive the plot. Which of the greedy, vermin, envious persons and similar negative personalities managed to become the most popular?

How it all began

About such a phenomenon as the villains of Disney, talking in the first half of the last century. An original ancestor of the category was the Evil Queen, with which small viewers were introduced thanks to the animated film "Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs", who saw the light back in 1937. Curiously, this was the first full-length creation of the famous studio.

The wicked queen is an artful lady, who cares only about her own beauty and nothing else. Like many other Disney villains, the ruler wants to remain the best, that is, the most beautiful. However, her stepdaughter Snow White, who grows year after year, becomes whiter and rudder than "mother". Wanting to get rid of the young rival, the cruel queen leaves the girl in the forest more often, and then at all tries to destroy her with the help of a poisoned apple. Of course, good wins.

Who is Captain Hook

In 1953 a cartoon "Peter Pan" was presented to the audience, which gave the young audience some more vivid images. Among them was Captain Hook, who was entrusted with the role of the main enemy, with whom the central character of fascinating hand-drawn history is compelled to fight. Of course, the eternal baby Peter Pan, who does not want to grow up, always remains the winner in the competition with his antagonist.

Parents can not be afraid that the image of such a famous hero as the one-armed Captain Hook, turned out to be excessively ominous, will scare the kids when watching the cartoon. The creators endowed the pirate with a comical way, attributed to him a penchant for hysteria and some cowardice. For example, this negative character can collapse when he sees a crocodile in front of him.

The Sea Witch of Ursula

Hardly there is a child who does not like the colorful animated work "The Little Mermaid", released in 1989. The category of Disney's Villains has been replenished thanks to this dynamic cartoon about the underwater world and its inhabitants. This time the main heroine has to fight with the wily witch Ursula and, of course, defeat her enemy.

It is interesting that the witch, who will poison the life of the beautiful Ariel, the creators did not immediately decide to give an octopus look. Initially, Ursulu was seen as a mermaid, but this appearance did not cause fear. Then, instead of the fish tail, the sea villain acquired the tentacles and began to look really creepy. Even the most naive viewers do not believe Ursula, when at the beginning of the story she tries to convince Ariel of her desire to help her.

The most evil lion

Disney cartoons are often made the protagonists of animals, among which there are not only good, but also frankly bad characters. Remembering the latter, one can not ignore such a vivid scoundrel as Scar, with whom the animated picture "The Lion King" introduces children. This beast is characterized by such qualities as envy, cynicism and perfidy. His sharp claws are never hidden by the pads of his fingers. It is believed that the prototype of Scar was Claudius - the character of Hamlet, written by Shakespeare.

Scar kills his brother Mufasa, wanting to take his throne. Trying to remove a bad lion and another applicant for the throne - his little nephew, Simba, but the kid miraculously manages to escape from the evil uncle. Of course, Simba, acquiring true friends and growing up, returns to take revenge on the treacherous relative and return his legitimate title of king. Like other Disney cartoons, "The Lion King" ends with a victory of good.

What is known about Gaston

Should every drawn negative hero at first sight seem so or may at first look good? Disney, who will perform in the role of scoundrels, often at the first acquaintance seem good to the audience. However, their further actions make it possible to see the opposite. A striking example of such a metamorphosis is Gaston from "Beauty and the Beast", a fairytale story that appeared in 1991.

Gaston is a guy with an attractive appearance, an alleged defender of a beautiful heroine who must save her from a monster. But gradually such qualities of the "knight" as greed, narcissism, a tendency to perfidy, cowardice are revealed. The enemy of Gaston, on the other hand, behaves decisively and nobly, which allows the children to guess who the true hero of history is, despite the disgusting appearance.

About how to look like cartoon characters, who will become the heroes of another fairy tale, employees of the studio of Disney can think for months. This fate did not pass Gaston, which was not originally intended to be turned into a negative character. However, in the process of working, the creators decided that the negative qualities of the "prince" would benefit the story.

Another evil Queen

In 1951, was released a wonderful cartoon "Alice in Wonderland", conquered millions of small viewers, living in different parts of the world. A colorful story presented the audience to another ruler-villain, with whom positive characters are forced to fight. Of course, this is the unforgettable Queen of Hearts, becoming the main problem of Alice's girl.

The Country of Miracles, into which the child accidentally falls, is ruled by a ruthless and bloodthirsty dictator. They are the Queen of Hearts, her tentacles suggesting horror to all the inhabitants of the fairy land, not counting Alice and her brave allies. The only way to fight your enemies, which is known to the villain, is to cut off your head. Of course, evil will be punished as a result, the triumph of good is inevitable.

Appeal to magic

It's no secret that wizards can be not only kind, but also evil. Remember this will help the cartoon "The Princess and the Frog", which was released in 2009. Dr. Facilier is an insidious, ruthless villain who has subdued to himself the magic of Voodoo, his second name, known to the elect - Shadow Man. The goal that the evil professor sets before him is to conquer. For the battle for the city, this person plans to use the help of his own "hellish friends".

For the first time seeing such a character as Dr. Fasilie, small viewers for a moment will not doubt that he worships the forces of evil. This is facilitated by the villainous appearance of the anti-hero, which was created by Disney experts, emphasized high and thin, endowed with dark skin and purple eyes. Fasilie first of all appreciates money and power, is able to decide on the most desperate actions, seeing the prospect of gain.

Prototype - James Moriarty

The cartoon "The Great Mouse Detective", released by the famous studio in 1986, can be recommended not only to young children, but also to their parents if they like stories about the adventures of Sherlock Holmes and other clever detectives. Professor Ratigan is the main villain of a fairy tale story. As a rat, the character insists on being spoken of as a mouse.

The prototype of Rethigan, according to the creators of the cartoon, is the legendary Sherlock Holmes, who was brought to the surface by pure water. The villain's goal is to conquer the British mouse empire, for the sake of achieving it he is ready to use any means. Professor Ratigan entertains young viewers throughout the cartoon, in the end enchantingly dies, allowing the good to once again triumph.

Disney's studio in its works often uses the image of a bloodthirsty queen, ready for any actions for the sake of gaining or retaining power. To the same category belongs another villain, presented to the audience in 2000 - Izma. "The Adventures of the Emperor" - a fantastic story, ridiculing human vices. The antagonist is the vindictive counselor of the ruler, who wants to settle with her master for ruthless dismissal, to seize his throne.

Of course, the numerous attempts to kill Kuzko, which Izmoj undertake, invariably fail. The evil counselor is defeated by the forces of good, her insidious plans will collapse without a chance to exercise. However, the punishment that awaits the wrong counselor is not too cruel. Izme should spend several years working in the camp of scouts.

Other vivid villains

Of course, not all of the bright images of the followers of the evil forces created by the employees of the Disney studio are listed above. For example, you can recall the fascinating tale of the misadventures of a smart guy named Aladdin. Fans of the colorful cartoon must have remembered the insidious Jafar, who had to fight the protagonist. The antagonist tries to subdue the genie, then tries to take his place. The power-hungry Vizier is captivated by a gloomy sense of humor.

One can not help but mention the wonderful cartoon "Sleeping Beauty" and his main villain Maleficent. The witch cast a curse on the little princess, quarreling with her royal parents and deciding to take revenge on them for their alleged insult. Another excellent example of the Disney villain is Sherhan. Dangerous enemy Mowgli from the "Book of the Jungle" throughout the cartoon tries to eliminate the boy, because he hates people. Sherhan seems fearless, but in reality he is afraid of many things, for example, fire and guns.

These are the most charismatic negative characters created by the Disney studio for many years of work.

Based on the characters from the animated films of this studio. Some of these characters appeared in sequels, video games, comics, stage productions, or game adaptations of original films.

On the plot, the night before Halloween, the Evil Queen asks her kettle to show her several villains, one of which will help her win Halloween. Among them: Captain Hook, Ursula and Izma.

Cartoons would not be so interesting if they did not have negative characters. Their personality and images are laid in our memory on a par with the positive characters. Their meaning is enormous. In addition to the villainous load, which dilutes the chillness of positivity, these exceptional personalities have completely human qualities: anger, envy, greed, exorbitant ambition, a thirst for power and much more.

The most interesting thing is that antiheroes have not a small army of fans. Why? First, the villains of Disney are not predictable, they have an unlimited fantasy for all sorts of dirty tricks and the means to achieve their malicious purpose. Secondly, the evil cartoon characters have a unique appearance, over which artists, animators and directors work with special care and zeal. After all, each of them must be strikingly distinguished not only among the heroes of his cartoon, but also in the general crowd of villains.

A distinctive feature of the negative characters are their songs. Where without them in the world of Disney? In August 2010, even released a CD called Disney Villains: Simply Sinister Songs, which included thirteen of the most vivid villainous tracks. We propose to go over the personalities of anti-heroes and their songs.

Negative character of the cartoon "", which premiered in 1961. Cruella is a woman with a peculiar sense of style, a hostage to fashion trends, in pursuit of which is capable of monstrous deeds. By the way, initially, De Ville was going to honestly buy from her former classmate, needed for her new fur coats puppies. But after not ambiguous refusal I decided to kidnap. The prototype for creating the image of Cruella was the American actress of the theater Tallulah Bankhead, famous for her eccentricity and unusual sense of humor. With it, the authors also wrote off the presence of the character's cigarettes, dressing her in a long, elegant mouthpiece. The character completely animated Mark Davis, Cruella became his final work at the Disney studio. In total, the cartoon sounded three songs, one of which - Cruella De Vil, the most vivid and lengthy, is devoted to the antagonist.

Who does not know this octopus villain? Perhaps, she became the most memorable spiteful heroine. Ursula - a person with a mysterious past. Her villainous deeds are directed to "return to the palace of Triton". Naturally, she craves power, the return of the lost title of the ruler of the seas. However, her past life is covered in darkness. We do not know exactly how the rules of Ursula ("") and why it turned out to be overthrown. The only thing that is known is that Ursula somehow has to be Sister Triton. But in the cartoon the hint of their relationship was cut out. Above the image of the sea witch was the animator Ruben Aquino, who found inspiration in the game of travesty-actor Harris Glenn Milsted, under the stage name "Divine". Even the naked eye can be seen similar features of the actor and antagonist. As for the musical accompaniment, the cartoon was deservedly awarded with world-class prizes for the best songs, among them Ursula's Poor Unfortunate Souls.

In general, the cartoon "" is interesting by an unusual, in a broad sense, view of the villain. Cute, muscular Gaston is endowed with such qualities as narcissism, greed and excessive self-confidence. The monster on the contrary, with its repulsive appearance, has a noble nature. The character was created by the animator Andreas Deja, and the prototypes were Jean Mare (who played Gaston in the film "Beauty and the Beast") and Richard White, who had already voiced a cartoon character. The song "Gaston" is performed in a cartoon in two languages ​​- French (sung by the sycophantic antagonist) and English (it is already performed by the character himself).

Jafar ("") is known for his greed, love of power and stupidity. Being a vizier and a magician, his main desire is to get a magic lamp. He is one of those Disney villains who are lucky. Evil wizard manages to get what he wants and even make a wish for Jin, which is immediately executed. Jafar becomes the most powerful, only the field of his action is limited to the expanses of a magic lamp. Above the character worked already known to us by Garston Andreas Deja. To create the image of Jafar, the exterior was used with the creative abilities of the German actor Konrad Feydt, who played the eponymous hero in the film "Baghdad thief". And this is despite the fact that most of the other characters were created on the basis of caricatures of El Hirschfeld. Although Jafar is quite a singer, his real hit was the song "You" re Only Second Rate "from the cartoon" Return of Jafar ".

A cruel pretender to the throne of his brother, Scar ("") is characterized by cunning and cynicism. He is constantly on watch, trying to catch that long-awaited moment, when it will be possible, without hindrances, to eliminate Mufasa in confirmation of this, his sharp claws always look out of the pads. The hero was created by the same Andreas Deja, focusing on Claudius from Shakespeare's Hamlet. The song of the hero "Be Prepared" was so complicated that it was played by two people: Jeremy Irons (because of her he broke his voice) and Jim Cummings.

Grimmhilda ("") was the first truly villainous character of the Disney studio. Cold-blooded and prudent queen strives to eclipse the beauty of the whole world, so it was after the birth of Snow White. Here is the antagonist who put all her ingenuity to get rid of the beautiful stepdaughter, and it almost turned out. The image of the evil queen, created by the animator Art Babbitt, conquered the heart of one of the most cruel people on the planet - Adolf Hitler. Prototypes for the creation of Grimhilda were four actresses and two actors, including Marlene Dietrich, Gail Sondergaard and Paul Godkin. Since initially Disney did not indulge his villains with individual songs, Grimhilde never managed to sing.
