I still think that Hades from Hercules is one of their more three
dimensional and enjoyable villains. If I have a problem with Mulan,
it's that Shan Yu's personality isn't fleshed out at all. He's just a
big scary guy, absolutely no development.

Hades on the other hand was wonderful voiced and characterized. I
*liked* him being bad. No, I *loved* him being bad. Part of me was
cheering for him in the film, going "You show it to them Hades, show
those smarmy, fluffy Gods what it's like to do a *real* job!".

Another Disney villain that I enjoy is Scar from The Lion King. He was
another villain that part of me rooted for. However, I have been
saddened since...ooh, I can't remember who, many apologies!...one of
the list members posted that email about the remarkable similarities
between it and Kimba the White Lion. I purely and simply am shocked
that Disney would blatantly use another film's material and not give
credit. I don't know if I'll be able to watch that film again with the
same enjoyment that I did before and probably won't watch it at all.
