nice book just give me a hand you see i was once like you for this list we'll be looking at how our favorite disney baddies became the villains we love to hate do these stories make you see these characters in a new light let us know in the comments number 10 lotso hug and bear toy story 3. welcome to sunnyside folks i'm lotso huggin bear but please call me lotso just as we wondered what could cause a cuddly pink teddy bear that smells of strawberries to become so evil we were hit in the feels with an answer whoa there missy you're not going anywhere lotsa was a christmas present for a kid named daisy instantly becoming her all-time favorite toy daisy loved us all but lotso lotso was special but on one unfortunate day out he ends up getting left behind along with chuckles and big baby she never came back after fighting hard to make his way back to her he was devastated to learn that he'd been replaced but by then it was too late heartbreak and a newfound fear of abandonment consumed him and brought out his dark side something changed that day inside lotso something snapped she replaced us number nine captain hook peter pan that crusted beast like the taste of me so well he's followed me ever since licking his chops for the rest of me if you've ever read jm berry's original novel or play you might know that captain hook wasn't always the codfish pirate popularized by the disney movie while barry never divulged how hook ended up in neverland we do know a little about his life before piracy i am not a godfish he attended the prestigious eaton college and oxford university in england and nothing was more important to him than proper form in fact it seems that until that fateful incident with peter pan his hand and the crocodile he was a completely different guy is it really any wonder that he holds a vendetta did pan so good for when he did this to me number eight hans frozen oh anna if only there was someone out there who loved you after years of torment at the hands of his older brothers and father hans decided he would finally gain their respect by becoming king but being 13th in line for the throne posed a slight obstacle as 13th in line in my own kingdom i didn't stand a chance i knew i'd have to marry into the throne somewhere so he set his sights on a neighboring kingdom where a new queen with no known suitors was about to be crowned however upon learning that it would be easier to break the ice with her younger sister a new plan was hatched but you you were so desperate for love you were willing to marry me just like that instead he decided he would marry anna before killing elsa and taking the crown and well we all know how well that turned out number seven scar the lion king have i ever told you how i got my scar disney offers a couple of backstories for this ferocious feline and in both he's cunning ruthless and power-hungry in the lion guard it's revealed that the power of possessing the roar of the elders went to his head and he turned on his fellow lion guard members [Music] in a tale of two brothers scar formerly known as taka meaning waste or want is envious when his brother becomes king well i was first in line until the little hairball was born that hair ball is my son and your future king oh i shall practice my curtsy he schemes with the hyenas to destroy mufasa's reputation by goading a buffalo into attacking him but it's taka who ends up in the danger zone resulting in his infamous scar from that day on he insisted that everyone call him scar as a reminder of that life-changing day [Music] number six judge claude frollo the hunchback of notre dame disney condensed victor hugo's lengthy descriptions to give us a very clear-cut villain a baby a monster in hugo's novel though judge frollo is an orphan who cared for his alcoholic brother later he took in quasimodo out of compassion rather than duty since he was responsible for making him an orphan too he was a respected scholar who lived as a recluse due to his overwhelming fear of temptation and women however when esmeralda enters the story he is overpowered by lust and becomes obsessed with her we wonder what it was about this story that screamed child friendly to the execs over at disney i'm losing to a bird number five cruella de vil 101 dalmatians if she doesn't scare you no evil thing will whether you watched once upon a times version of her childhood or read dodie smith's novel the consensus seems to be that corella earned her name early on in life anita darling how are you miserable darling as you were perfectly wretched in the novel mrs dearly or anita as we know her from the movie recalls her school days with her menacing classmate cruella she sported black and white plates and had a penchant for eating weird things ultimately getting expelled from school for drinking ink drop that you horrid little scribbler she would go on to marry a furrier but something tells us this marriage wasn't about love well at least not love for her husband oh there's a flabbergasted you know i'm not mother material number four jafar aladdin at last after all my years of searching the cave of wonders ah wonders the character of jafar was created by combining three characters from the original aladdin folk tales a sorcerer his brother and a vizier who tries to marry off his son to the princess jafar my most trusted advisor interestingly jafar and aladdin have quite a bit more in common than you might think people like us must be realistic us you see i was once like you a common thief they both grew up in poverty felt like a street rat and were determined to prove that they're more than their status steal an apple and you're a thief steal a kingdom and you're a statesman where their paths differ though is that while aladdin embraced who he was jafar let the bitterness of his past consume him if you won't bow before a sultan then you will cower before a sorcerer number three hades hercules so hades you finally mean it are things in the underworld well they're just fine you know a little dark a little gloomy and there's always hey full of dead people what are you going to do while we do love the dry humor of james woods as hades according to greek mythology the god of the underworld wasn't exactly the villain he's made out to be he and his brothers drew lots to decide who would rule each realm and he happened to draw the short straw many suggest that he was a fair ruler despite not being particularly thrilled with his lot but unlike you gods lounging about up here i regrettably have a full-time gig that you by the way so charitably bestowed on me zeus that isn't to say he didn't have his moments of wrath though in all fairness to disney we're not sure an altruistic god of the underworld would have been quite as hilarious or memorable number two maleficent maleficent seize that creature stand back you fools maleficent's story has been reworked several times often portraying her in the role of the scorned woman seeking revenge however the live-action adaptation took this a step further by blurring the lines of good and evil although a young maleficent is wary of humans she befriends and later falls in love with a human called stefan he told her it was true love's kiss but it was not to be however when the opportunity to become king arises he betrays her and cuts off her wings devastated by the physical and emotional pain he caused she turns the moors into her dark kingdom and we're left wondering who here is really the villain before we continue be sure to

a grudge against king triton and his daughter in my day we had fantastical feasts when i lived in the palace fortunately this plot point is addressed in the broadway musical as we discover that ursula and triton are siblings who were meant to rule the sea together as we learned in the song i want the good times back triton banished his sister after she used dark magic it was later replaced by a new song called daddy's little angel which gave us a brand new backstory for disney's brassiest undersea diva do you agree with our picks check out this other recent clip from msmojo and be sure to
