We’ve looked at the villains of nearly every movie in the Disney animated canon, but what about the
animated movies that exist outside of that label? From Roger Rabbit to Nightmare Before Christmas,
the non-traditional films are often just as beloved as Disney’s main animated films,
and the same holds true for their villains. So take a seat as we go through some of these
features, and see how their villains stack up against the court of law!
I’m Caleb with WickedBinge,
and this is Sentencing Disney Villains For Their Crimes: The Miscellaneous Films
The first film we’ll be looking at today is an often overlooked one, but a classic in the eyes
of those who remember it. May the villains of The Brave Little Toaster please rise?
Starting us off is a villain who is known only as The Clown! This character plays an extremely minor
role in the film, appearing only in a dream sequence, but what a scene it is! He visits
Toaster during a nightmare, and has just one goal in mind: to kill the little kitchen appliance!
That alone means we can charge him with attempted murder, but beyond that, we cannot say there is
much this clown is guilty of other than looking creepy. And, if we’re being honest, couldn’t that
be said for every clown? Making things even harder when it comes to sentencing this jokester is the
fact that he only exists within a dream. Some will say he shouldn’t count because of that reason,
but since we’ve covered gods, witches, and tons of other fictitious beings,
we think it’s only fair that we try him as well. With all of that said, we sentence this
creepy clown to a large dose of community service! Between his tiny role, one actual crime committed,
and the fact that he’s little more than a figment of Toaster’s imagination, we cannot really justify
giving him a particularly lengthy or harsh sentence. Still, when it comes to clowns in the
world of movies and television, this is one you’d probably be best not getting on the bad side of!
CRIMES: Attempted Murder SENTENCING: Community Service
Now, it’s time to talk about the real villain of the film, the simply named
Giant Magnet! While this villain plays a small role not unlike the Clown, this guy is
anything but a dream! The Giant Magnet takes junkyard items and tosses them onto a crusher,
where they are sure to meet their end. It commits an act of murder when it throws a living car onto
the conveyor belt, where it is subsequently crushed into a cube. The magnet also becomes
guilty of attempted murder when it tries to take out Toaster and his fellow appliances. A villain
who is as imposing as he is quiet, the Giant Magnet might have a small role in the film,
but that doesn’t stop him from being one of the more dangerous adversaries featured in today’s
video. For that reason, we sentence this magnet to death! To make his fate a bit more poetic,
we believe the punishment should be carried out via the same conveyor belt he threw so
many helpless victims on during his lifetime. To the scrap heap, he goes!
CRIMES: Murder, Attempted Murder SENTENCING: Death Sentence
We’re going to take a little trip down to Toontown
to judge the villain of this next film, Who Framed Roger Rabbit?
Coming up to the stand is the one, the only, Judge Doom! Arguably one of the most terrifying
villains Disney has ever brought to life, Doom is the judge of Toontown, and the leader of the Toon
Patrol. He has but one goal on his mind at all times: to get rid of each and every toon there
is! Right from the start, this means we can charge Doom with attempted genocide, but his crimes don’t
end there. He commits murder by dipping a cartoon shoe into the dangerous substance known as dip,
and was also the one behind the death of Eddie’s brother. Considering the intensity of the former,
we can go ahead and charge him on grounds of torture, too. Doom is guilty of attempted murder
as well on account of his efforts to stamp out Eddie, Roger, and many of the others who stand
in the way of his plans. Lastly, it’s pretty safe to say that Judge Doom is one judge who likes to
abuse the power given to him. He uses his social status to further his political agendas and to get
rid of those he deems a threat, instead of using this power to make Toontown a better place. With
all of that said and done, how could we give Judge Doom anything but the death penalty? The toon to
end all toons, Judge Doom poses a major threat to all the inhabitants of the land he resides in,
and we find the idea of rehabilitating him too implausible to take seriously.
It really is a no-brainer here. As for how the punishment will be carried out,
while we could speculate and theorize, let’s be honest with ourselves. There’s no worse fate we
could give him than the one he got in the film! CRIMES: Attempted Genocide, Attempted Murder,
Murder, Torture, Abuse of Power SENTENCING: Death Sentence
It’s time to get a little festive as we look at the villains of the next film,
The Nightmare Before Christmas!
Kicking things off, one of the most terrifying residents of Halloween Town, Oogie Boogie,
takes the stand! After discovering Santa Claus and Jack Skellington’s plans, Boogie
wants nothing more than to rule. He is intent on overthrowing Jack to become the new Pumpkin King,
and he’ll do anything to make sure that goes according to plan. This already
makes Oogie an attempted usurper, but that’s far from his only crime. He both kidnaps and
tortures Santa Claus after meeting him, and later does a similar thing to Sally as well.
In fact, he tries to cook both of them in a stew, making him the only villain here
today that we can call a cannibal! And, like any devious mastermind, we can charge him with three
counts of attempted murder. Two of them stem from his attempted cooking of Sally and Santa,
while the third comes from his encounter with Jack when he arrives to save the others. A
foe that can go toe to toe with the Pumpkin King should not be taken lightly, and because of that,
Oogie Boogie is yet another villain who gets the death penalty. How the penalty will be carried
out is anyone’s guess, but considering the kind of stuff that goes on in Halloween Town,
we think we’re better off not knowing! Regardless, we’re sure it will be anything but pleasant,
even for a supernatural being like Oogie! CRIMES: Kidnapping, Attempted Murder,
Usurpation, Torture SENTENCING: Death Sentence
Oogie Boogie might be the villain of Nightmare Before Christmas, but he’s
not acting alone. Enter his accomplices and our next batch of criminals, Lock,
Shock, and Barrel! A rotten bunch of Trick or Treaters, this trio is ultimately responsible
for finding and capturing Santa Claus, thus setting into motion many of Boogie’s actions
in the film. That means they aid their boss and commit an act of kidnapping,
but other than that, these three don’t really participate in a lot of villainy.
Sure, they do like themselves a good prank, but are pranks necessarily a crime? We don’t think so!
Despite that, these guys still have two criminal charges under their masks, and we think it’s best
if each of them gets one year behind bars! While they are devious in their ways, we don’t think
they’re particularly malicious. They might be troublemakers, but they are not evil in the way
Oogie himself is. A year in prison might be just what they need to see the error of their ways.
At the very least, it’ll spare the denizens of Halloween Town their pranks for a year!
CRIMES: Kidnapping SENTENCING: One Year in Prison
We move from one stop-motion favorite to another,
it’s time to discuss the villains of James and the Giant Peach!
It’s not an assortment of Disney villains until we see some sinister siblings, and these next two
may be worse than most! Introducing to the stand, Aunts Spiker and Sponge! These two are the aunts
of James, and have taken care of him ever since the passing of his parents. We use the phrase
“taken care of” loosely, as it would be far more accurate to say they’ve done anything but! They
are undoubtedly guilty of child abuse on account of how poorly they treat James. The two beat him,
barely feed him, and often talk down to him as if he were an insect. After James goes off
with their prized peach, the two chase after him, and nearly kill him when he
begins to stand up for himself. That’s only two criminal charges these aunts can be tried with,
but they are hardly ones anybody would want to be associated with their name. Considering
the severity of their crimes, we think the most appropriate punishment for Spiker and
Sponge would be to serve life in prison. While they may be rather cartoony and over the top,
their crimes are anything but. These two aunts might’ve had a rough time throughout this film,
but it will surely look like a cakewalk compared to what prison will have in store for them!
CRIMES: Child Abuse, Attempted Murder SENTENCING: Life in Prison
Aunt Spiker and Sponge are the primary villains of James and the Giant Peach, but there also
exists another who is far more dangerous, and a lot less physical. This is none other than the
Rhino! The Rhino first exists as the being that killed James’ parents, but in the film itself,
it is more akin to a personification of all of James’ fears, making it one of the more unique
villains in Disney’s catalog. While we can’t exactly punish a character for what they are
perceived as, we can definitely judge them on account of what they’ve actually done.
In the case of this Rhino, it has killed two people, and because of that, we believe that
this beast should be sentenced to death. While we don’t see these acts committed in the film,
they have a huge impact on both James’ life and his mental well-being, and that’s more than we
can say than even some of the other villains who we’ve given this punishment to. It will hardly be
an easy thing to carry out, but we truly believe it’s the best course of action given these crimes!
CRIMES: Murder SENTENCING: Death Sentence
We have but one more villain to look at, and he comes from the 2011 CG film Gnomeo and Juliet!
Introducing the red gnome known only as Tybalt! Based on the same character from
the original Shakespeare play, Tybalt is Gnomeo’s rival, and does anything he can to
prove he’s a better Gnome than he can. While it seems more playful than anything else at first,
their relationship does start to take a darker route. He assaults Gnomeo when he learns he has
left the garden, and also does the same to his friend Benny after he accuses him of cheating
during a race. Later in the film, he tries to kill Benny, but only chops off his cap. In this one
instance, he becomes guilty of attempted murder and vandalism, showing that this garden gnome
has a bit more of a temper than most would think. While he’s hardly the most dangerous individual
we’ve covered today, Tybalt still has a dark side to him, and it’s that element of his character
that gets him five years in prison. Hopefully, the time will be enough to get Tybalt to change his
ways, but only time will tell. Hey, we think he’ll prefer it over being smashed into a ton of pieces!
