Mine is thw White Witch because she,s such a cool and intresting character. Wonderfully played as well. So who is your favorite Live Action Disney Villain and why?

barbossa. not only does he look pretty cool, and geoffry rush plays evil really well, it's a very believable character. and that's what i like about him.

Does Judge Doom from WFRR count?

Posted: **Mon Mar 12, 2007 9:25 pm**

I vote Barbossa as well.

Oooohhh, definately Barbossa. Terrific, complex, and with just the right balance of creepy-funny menace and strange likeability. Plus, you can never quite guess what he's going to do next, which acounts for a lot of why I really can't wait until At World's End comes out.

The White Witch is up there too, but she is really C.S. Lewis's villian, and well-rendered from the books. Also on the shortlist: Glenn Close's Cruella DeVil, primarily from the live-action version of 101 Dalmatians (as opposed to the boring 102 even she couldn't save.) That performance was creepy, respectful of the animated version, and yet she wasn't afraid to add her own touch and stamp on the role. Difficult balancing act, that.

Definately Jadis aka The White Witch and the Queen or Narnia!

From what I've seen in the first Pirates film, I pick Barbossa.

I like the more obscure. I'm voting for The Sanderson Sisters in Hocus Pocus and Doc Terminus from Pete's Dragon. Both are very funny villains.

Off the top of my head, it's probably either Barbosa or Doc Terminus. THOUGH, I LOVE Davy Jones, the Sanderson Sisters, and Judge Doom. I could easily be forgetting one or more faves, too.

Doc Terminus is great. And, her name just escaped me, but the girlfriend in "The Parent Trap".

I believe you mean Vicky, blackcauldron85.

No one has said Barnaby (from Babes in Toyland) yet?

Mine would be the Sanderson Sisters followed by Barbosa, Doc Terminus (alot of people seem to like him), and Barnaby (of course)

Mine would be the Warden from Holes, as I wrote about here
http://www.ultimatedisney.com/forum/vie ... php?t=8499

Second would be 102 Dalmations Cruella (same post)

Thanks, Flanger-Hanger! I'm horrible with names! (And, great TBC pic in your siggy!!!)

I don't know how I forgot them, but the Gogans! I love "Pete's Dragon", and Doc Terminus isn't the only fun bad guy...the Gogans are funny...mean, but funny.

Runner-Ups:

I find Davey Jones irresistibly evil. Great performance.
