We’re back, and it’s time to look at yet another round of Pixar villains in need of
criminal sentencing!
There are three films we’ll be discussing today: A superhero sequel, another Toy Story
entry, and Pixar’s first film of the 2020s.
Despite the stark contrast between the films, however, the villains contained within them
are as evil and as menacing as many of their predecessors, making them just as interesting
to put on trial as they were.
But enough preamble!
Let’s get this court in session!
I’m Kyle with WickedBinge, and this is Sentencing Pixar Villains For Their Crimes: Part 6
Kicking things off, let us welcome the villains of The Incredibles 2 to the stand!
Our first trial of the day is the film’s main antagonist, Evelyn Deavor!
Otherwise known by her alter-ego the Screenslaver, Evelyn Deavor’s goal in the sequel is to
ensure that all heroes are forever outlawed, as she blames them for the death of her parents.
Evelyn is a compelling villain because of her ability to manipulate others through her
intelligence and charisma.
She is able to convince people to support her cause, even if it means using unethical
means to achieve it.
Additionally, her personal connection to the heroes and her desire to avenge her father's
death adds depth to her character and makes her more relatable.
Overall, Evelyn Deavor's complex motivations and tactics make her a memorable and effective
villain in the film.
As she tries to carry out this plan, she engages in brainwashing on a large scale.
Her crimes do go much deeper than that, however.
Her attempts to dispose of the Incredibles make her guilty of attempted murder.
She also holds Elastigirl hostage at one point, adding a kidnapping charge to her sentencing.
Last but most certainly not least, her doings as the Screenslaver see her engage in mass
terrorism and assault.
She does everything from planning an assassination attempt to hijacking a monorail, showing that
Evelyn will do anything possible to make her goals come to fruition.
On account of all of these dangerous doings, we sentence Evelyn Deavor to life in prison.
Evelyn’s crimes could easily put her in talks for the death penalty, but considering
that we don’t see any actual casualties from her actions, she just barely manages
to scurry away from our harshest punishment.
Though Ms. Deavor sought to make it so that the supers would never see a day of freedom
ever again, it appears that she has only accomplished that for herself.
That’s what we call “irony”, folks!
CRIMES: Terrorism, Brainwashing, Attempted Murder, Assault
SENTENCING: Life in Prison
Although the Screenslaver may be the main villain of the Incredibles sequel, she’s
not the only bad guy they have to deal with!
They also have to save the day from the cliffhanger villain of the original movie, The Underminer!
The Underminer is a classic comic-book villain brought to life.
He endangers citizens, robs banks, and tries to take over the world.
Right from the get-go, that means we can charge the Underminer with terrorism, robbery, and
endangerment.
His battle with the Incredibles family also means he’s guilty of attempted murder.
Though he’s only in the film for a few minutes, he easily puts Evelyn to shape when it comes
to rampage and destruction!
As a result, we give the Underminer our first and only death sentence of the day.
Although the Underminer might not be as calculating as the Screenslaver is, the Underminer had
far more dangerous goals in mind when it came to his crimes.
Evelyn wanted to outlaw superheroes, but the Underminer wants to rule the entire world!
Although his crimes are heftier than most, his end will be met the same way as others
who receive this punishment: lethal injection.
This is a case where we think the crimes justify the sentencing, and that is why the Underminer
gets a harsher punishment than Miss Deavor.
To put it simply, this villain is proof that crime doesn’t pay!
CRIMES: Attempted Murder, Robbery, Terrorism, Endangerment
SENTENCING: Death Sentence
Moving on, it’s time to look at the villains of the most recent installment in Pixar’s
most celebrated franchise, Toy Story 4!
We’ll be putting two villains from this film on trial today, and the first up is Gabby
Gabby!
An antique talking doll in need of a voice box, Gabby Gabby might be the film’s main
antagonist, but she’s far different from other villains the series has showcased.
She’s not destructive like Sid, nor is she a dictator in the way Lotso was.
Despite being a toy, she desires to be loved and played with like a child's favorite toy,
but her damaged voice box prevents her from doing so.
Her desperation to fix herself drives her to extreme measures, which creates tension
and conflict with the other toys.
Additionally, her redemption arc at the end of the movie adds depth to her character and
makes her more relatable to the audience.
Realistically, she’s a character who has understandable goals, but immoral ways of
trying to get them.
After meeting Woody, she quickly realizes that he has a working voice box, the very
thing she is looking for.
Woody, unfortunately, refuses to give it to her, which results in Gabby Gabby trying to
kidnap Woody and taking Fory instead.
This makes her guilty of both kidnapping and attempted kidnapping.
Though this was a bad call on her part, Gabby Gabby does learn from this mistake, and ultimately
reforms.
She makes amends with Woody and all the trouble she caused her, making her one of the only
villains in the franchise to be redeemed.
Because of this and the fact that her crimes are less egregious than most, we believe the
best thing Gabby Gabby needs is a round of community service!
Since she has already decided to become a better person, a prison sentence seems rather
unnecessary for her.
Gabby Gabby is the least villainous of all the Toy Story antagonists, so it seems only
fitting that she gets the most lenient punishment of them, too!
CRIMES: Kidnapping, Attempted Kidnapping SENTENCING: Community Service
No villain is complete without a sidekick, and that is where the Bensons enter the picture!
Similarly to Gabby Gabby, though these two dummies fill the classic role of an evil sidekick,
the Belsons don’t quite live up to the cliches of that archetype.
They look a bit creepy and do engage in a lot of grunt labor, but other than that, they
are far more different than the majority of evil sidekicks in animated movies.
Obviously, as evil sidekicks, they are guilty of aiding and abetting.
The duo is also responsible for the kidnapping of Forky and the attempted kidnapping of Woody,
meaning they are actually guilty of more crimes than Gabby herself.
As such, while she got community service in lieu of a prison sentence, the Bensons will
get the same punishment, since she’s the one pulling the strings!
The two of them did commit more crimes than Gabby Gabby, but she was the ringleader…
so the sentence, we feel, should balance out.
CRIMES: Aiding and Abetting, Kidnapping, Attempted Kidnapping
SENTENCING: Community Service
We have only one more movie to look at for today!
All rise for the villains of Pixar’s first film of the new decade, Onward!
First up is easily the most imposing villain of this set, The Curse!
Otherwise known as the Curse Dragon, this powerful beast is made out of debris, and
exists solely to protect the phoenix gem from being stolen.
This puts the dragon into conflict with the Lightfoot siblings, who are seeking it to
bring back their deceased father.
The Curse tries not only to kill the two of them, but also Corey, which means this creature
is guilty of three different counts of attempted murder.
As the battle rages on, the Curse also causes an unknown amount of destruction.
The character is onscreen for only a few minutes and doesn’t even have an actual voice, yet
they are undoubtedly one of the more dangerous villains seen in this crop of films.
As a result, we give the Curse Dragon twenty years in the pound!
The Curse could have easily gotten more time behind bars, but since they are only in the
film for a few minutes, it’s a bit harder to justify.
Even so, it’ll be quite a lot of time before this dragon gets back to protecting its sacred
gem, that’s for sure!
CRIMES: Attempted Murder, Destruction SENTENCING: Twenty Years in Prison
Last but most certainly not least, we have the leader of the Pixie Dusters, Dewdrop!
A typical rough and dangerous biker, Dewdrop and her gang love to rob and steal from those
who cannot defend themselves.
Eventually, the Lightfoots make an enemy out of her and the Pixie Dusters, which makes
Dewdrop obsessed with trying to get rid of the two.
Overall, Dewdrop has three crimes attached to her name, and for that, we think she should
serve three years in prison for the three of them!
In all honesty, Dewdrop will no doubt be up to her mischievous ways again as soon as she
gets out, and she’s likely no stranger to the system, but maybe some time behind bars
will get her to reevaluate her life choices.
Probably not, but one can certainly imagine!
CRIMES: Attempted Murder, Robbery, Theft SENTENCING: Three Years in Prison
