Most disturbing disney villian death?

Here’s a link to the comedy website “Cracked” , they have an article called “7 most terrifying Disney Deaths”. It’s pretty funny if you want to check it out!

When I saw Spider-Man 3, everyone clapped when Harry Osborn died, and my brother was like, “dumb___es”.

^That stinks!! I mean, he was Pete’s best friend… :unamused:

Clayton’s death is probably one of the most disturbing. Ursula’s and Scar’s as well.

Yeah but the thing that’s a bit mean about hopper is that the audience I was with laughed when he died.

You don’t think it’s ironic that a once very intimidating villain was gobbled up by a cutesy little bird in a second? I think that’s why the audience was laughing. I mean, for a death, it was fairly amusing to watch.

I always thought Syndrome’s death was comical and entertaining. Everyone on this forum has since proved me wrong by being disturbed by it. :open_mouth:

IV, it’s probably because seeing a human character in a Pixar film get an on-screen death makes us envision ourselves in the same situation, and it’s really a pretty gruesome way to die. The way they handled that scene was more comical/lighthearted, but thinking about it in terms of everything Syndrome felt is…unsettling.

Personally, I think he died before it hurt. But, I just don’t get bothered by it. Unless it’s a character I love. Then I get mad.

Hmm, I guess so. It’s probably too quick of a process to really hurt before it’s done with anyway.

Yeah, just like Stratogale. Sucked in within like .5 seconds. :open_mouth:

Yeah. Then again hopper was an ******* so he had it coming. A lot people at the theater laughed at gaston when he died too.

I liked Hopper’s death, too. I found it very amusing.

That reaction could be considered a little strange then. I don’t really find Gaston’s death as funny as I do a relief to the story. Then again, we have to consider that Disney (or Pixar or whatever animation studio) might intentionally add humor to the villain’s demise to lighten the fact that they, well, died or were hurt very badly. There’s probably a fine balance the filmmakers have to find between morbidity/seriousness and a funny way to get rid of a jerk character.

As for Syndrome, I think that was just a straight-up disturbing way to die, and the way it was “filmed” (via computer? haha) made it even more so to the audience. I can’t remember off the top of my head, which is silly considering I watched it like 2 weeks ago, but there’s kind of a pause when you realize Syndrome’s fate, and I don’t recall there being a strong presence of the score then, which therefore makes it more realistic. And yes, the computer-animated element adds to the realism as well, but in a very subtle way. But I might have to watch it again to verify all that. For all I know, I could be making stuff up!

I just don’t see it. It was intended as a joke, and I found it ironic and an amusing call back o earlier in the film.

No, it was totally funny and ironic, but it still gives me the shivers. Just the thought of someone dying that way… eeeeeeesh. Icky!

Wouldn’t it be cool if “1000 ways to die” had a Disney villain edition?

That would be awsome!
Sndrome was the most disterbing, but the Queen’s death was my favorite and the funniest. :laughing:

I alwats thought a Kenny version would be cool.

I’m gonna say Clayton or Syndrome, like a lot of people, purely because whilst other villians were asking for it, like Frollo, Ursula, Muntz, Hopper etc, by being downright evil, these 2 just seemed to be engulfed in glory more than anything else. Not saying their actions were right, but Clayton’s shooting wasn’t something unusual for his position, and Syndrome was more in despair than anything else, and of course, the deaths themselves…
