TV taught me how to feel

“It’s just a stupid sword,” she said, aloud this time…

… but it wasn’t.

“This is it.”

“This is what?”

“If I take one more step, it’ll be the farthest away from home I’ve ever been.”

I mean let’s take a look at her motivations compared to other popular Disney villains: SCAR - Wanted to become King. 

URSULA - Wanted to rule the seas.

WICKED QUEEN - Wanted to rule as the most beautiful woman in the land.

JAFAR - Wanted to rule in the Sultan’s place and/or obtain ultimate power.

Maleficient, by contrast, didn’t want any of that. She didn’t want more power. She didn’t want fame. She didn’t want to rule. She just wanted to raise hell. This is the woman who decided that every newborn child in the kingdom should die and that the land should be covered in darkness for one reason - SHE WASN’T INVITED TO A MOTHERFUCKING PARTY.

That’s right, the evil bitch basically condemned an entire kingdom to die at her hands because she didn’t get invited to a christening.

This is not a woman with a motivation. She cannot be reasoned with. Her actions cannot be rationalized. She is evil for the fun of being evil, not because she wants something.
