I'm in love with Disney cartoons and movies, so much so that it's in my category of favorite movies because of the young ladies who are enchanted by the princes, but when it comes to Disney villains, they are totally capable of making the stories funnier, more dramatic, giving what's really missing in that movie tone. My choice was the combination of Scar (Lion King movie) plus Jafar (Aladdin movie). Imagine a little of these two characters together, what they would be capable of doing, there is a little of each of them there.
Scar is an intelligent, sarcastic and narcissistic lion with a cultured and elegant demeanor, with an ironic and cynical wit, however, even with his evil and deceitful ways, he prefers to run rather than fight when cornered. He has the ability to defend himself by being quite arrogant and lives believing that he can do whatever he wants without any consequences. His emotions are full of hate and disgust, being capable of immoral acts such as betraying, killing and stealing, not accepting criticism and being quite stubborn to accept guidance from his advisors, besides being selfish and lazy, he doesn't even bother to try to take his responsibilities seriously, accompanied by an arrogance that prevents us from seeing his inability to empathize and intolerance of failure. On the other hand, I confess that he is also very sophisticated, charismatic and convincing, having the ability to gather the hyenas to put his manipulative side into practice using his charismatic personality. In addition to having a hot temper where any sign of failure, cowardice, idiocy or weakness occurs, he becomes horribly angry and his fury only increases when his plans are frustrated.
Jafar is portrayed as an immoral, disloyal, treacherous, cruel, and inhuman sorcerer who does not hesitate to eliminate anyone he perceives as a threat to his own sinister plans. In the Disney films, he is a calm schemer who aims to gain the trust of those around him, despite his untrustworthy and treacherous behavior, as he is quite unsympathetic and cruel to his fellow conspirators or henchmen. Jafar tends to be quite sadistic and ruthless. Furthermore, he has also proven himself to be quite narcissistic and selfish, due to his desire for power and his manipulations towards the Sultan, it shows that he is completely prideful, treacherous, manipulative, and ill-tempered towards his subjects after usurping the Sultan's power. Despite his rather disturbing behavior, Jafar has a somewhat fun and comedic edge that helps add some humanity to his character, an unusual trait in a Disney villain. Despite his villainy, Jafar also has his moments consisting of some puns, but this does not disregard that he has the abilities to torment through humiliation, bondage, and other forms of sadistic torture.
Now imagine what the Disney kingdom would be like if ruled by this duo:
Scar and Jafar!
It would certainly be full of authoritarianism on both sides accompanied by an army composed of hyenas under Scar's command, while his ally Jafar would be involved with his magic and the phenomenal cosmic powers that he possesses with the aim of domination and controlling the minds of his subjects, in addition to attacking whoever is against them if necessary. Thus the two of them were completely capable of commanding the universe as a whole. Both are quite intelligent with a high capacity to manipulate anyone who thinks about ruining or hindering their evil plans and can psychologically or emotionally manipulate their subjects. But this can be quite dangerous, as both are quite similar in their qualities or even in their defects, this can leave them blinded by their desire for power.
Of course, “Disney” would not be a safe place to live, the princesses worked night and day, being prevented from leaving the house and forced to marry whoever they wanted in exchange for something they wanted. In addition to using the hair and voice of some to their advantage (Rapunzel and Ariel). Furthermore, he would be cruel to any princesses who rebelled, making them eat poisoned apples until they fell into a deep sleep, all of this before the watchful eyes of the army of hyenas ordered by Scar to watch over them, day and night. The life of a Disney princess would not be easy.
