Spider
Sage
Who's your favorite antagonist/villain and why? Not only from books, but also movies. Honestly, I can't decide, but I do like Loki from the movie Thor. Even though he betrayed his friends, I can still sympathize with him.
During Cinco de Mayo the ranchero had a celebration. I and my five brothers went to watch. Mama brought my little sisters . . . The mayor of our village--dressed in a fine black-and-silver suit--rode on a white horse and threw money to the crowd. How we scrambled for the coins! How we rolled in the dirt like pigs! But we needed the money . . . One year, during that feast, my little sisters caught typhoid. They died in the same hour. They were so small, they couldn't look over the windowsill--no, not even if they stood on tiptoe. During the following years, each of my five brothers died; two drowned, one had a burst appendix, and we had no money for the doctor. The last two brothers were beaten to death by the police. There were eight of us, and only I lived to grow up. Don't you think I'm owed those lives?
I'm thinking the Joker from The Dark Knight.
He's a total psycho; doesn't care about anything, doesn't have an agenda. It's just chaos wherever he goes, and to me, that's really fun.
Another atypical Disney villain, Gaston from Beauty and the Beast. For a lot of kids in the audience, that might be the first time they ever saw a comic-relief "of course you want to marry me" clown turn into something not so silly, or a villain come out of someone who might have been at home on their own street.
