Scar - 'The Lion King'
Master Plan:To dispose of his brother, Mufasa, and rule overthe Pride Lands. What Makes Him So Memorable:He's one of the most iconic baddies to grace the animated stage. His villain song ("Be Prepared") is top-notch, and the scar over his eye just tops off his scary vibe. Biggest Bad Guy Moment:He murders his own brother by pushing him over a ledge into a wildebeest stampede. Nicest Thing He's Done: He allows the hyenas to live alongside the lions (even though he reigns over them). His Punishment: After Scar tries to kill a fully-grown Simba, Simba throws his uncle over a cliff. Scar survives the fall, but is then faced with his hyena lackeys, who heard Scar throw them under the bus. Fed up with his disloyalty, the hyenas attack Scar. Most Villainous Quote: Now this looks familiar. Where have I seen this before? Hm, let me think. Oh, yes, I remember! This is just the way your father looked before he died.

Claude Frollo - 'The Hunchback of Notre Dame'
Master Plan:To purge Paris of the Roma people, along with anyone else he thinks lives in “sin.” What Makes Him So Memorable:He's probably the most predatory Disney villain, constantly pursuing Esmeralda and trying to force her to be with him. Biggest Bad Guy Moment:After chasing Quasimodo's mother down, he shoves her into the stone stairs of Notre Dame, killing her. Nicest Thing He's Done:He agrees to “raise” Quasimodo rather than kill him. But in reality, he imprisons Quasimodo and constantly tells him he's a monster. His Punishment: As he's coming after Quasimodo and Esmeralda, he dangles off a ledge. Unable to hold on, he falls into the molten lead surrounding the church. Most Villainous Quote: Frollo: [about to drop baby Quasimodo over a well] This is an unholy demon. I'm sending it back to hell, where it belongs!
Archdeacon: See there the innocent blood you have spilt on the steps of Notre Dame.
Claude Frollo: I am guiltless. She ran, I pursued.

Jafar - 'Aladdin'
Master Plan:To rule Agrabah. What Makes Him So Memorable:He's both ruthless and undeniably creepy, especially when he attempts to enchant Jasmine. Biggest Bad Guy Moment:He locks Jasmine in a giant hourglass, nearly suffocating her. Nicest Thing He's Done: He maintains a somewhat-genuine friendship with Iago, his pet parrot. His Punishment: He wishes to be an all-powerful genie after Aladdin tells him he'll never be the most powerful in the land. What he forgets, however, is that being a genie means being tied to a lamp, where he becomes trapped. Most Villainous Quote: Marry the shrew. I become sultan. The idea has merit.

Master Plan:To marry the prettiest girl in town, Belle. What Makes Him So Memorable:He's proudly chauvinist and narcissistic, with a staggering ego that's both repulsive and amusing (And he's one of the first bad guys to sport a ponytail). Biggest Bad Guy Moment:When he gets Belle's father, Maurice, committed to an insane asylum, just to get him out of the way and force Belle into marriage. Nicest Thing He's Done: When he shoots a barrel of beer during his “Gaston” song, allowing his fellow patrons to get a free mug of alcohol. His Punishment: After leading the attack on the Beast's castle, the Beast spares Gaston's life. Gaston, unsurprisingly, stabs the Beast in the back, then slips off the roof and falls to his death. Most Villainous Quote: Belle, it's about time you got your head out of those books and paid attention to more important things. Like me. The whole town's talking about it. It's not right for a woman to read. Soon she starts getting ideas and thinking.

Shan Yu - 'Mulan'
Master Plan:To take over China with his Hun warriors. What Makes Him SoMemorable:His orange eyes burn with fury, and his hawk sidekick allows him to see far more than any normal warrior. Biggest Bad Guy Moment: His worst actions happen off-screen, but the evidence of his destruction is clear when Mulan and her troop discover a village that Shan Yu and his men have ravaged. Nicest Thing He's Done: He allows one man to live to spread the message of his impending invasion. His Punishment: After Shan Yu tries to assassinate the Emperor, Mulan shoots a firework into the Hun leader, propelling him into a tower full of fireworks, which then explodes. Most Villainous Quote: No. The quickest way to the emperor is through that pass. Besides, the little girl will be missing her doll. We should return it to her.

Hades - 'Hercules'
Master Plan:To overthrow his brother, Zeus, and rule over Mount Olympus. What Makes Him So Memorable:For an evil god, he's got some pretty good one-liners. Biggest Bad Guy Moment:He forces Hercules to give up his strength to save Meg, then reveals that Meg was working for him all along. Nicest Thing He's Done: He compliments Meg on her performance in luring Hercules to a trapearly on in the movie. His Punishment: Once Hercules achieves his god status, he punches Hades into the River Styx, where Hades is pulled down by tortured souls. Most Villainous Quote: Zeus: So, Hades, you finally made it. How are things in the underworld? Hades: Well, they're just fine. You know, a little dark, a little gloomy. And, as always, hey, full of dead people. What are you gonna do?
