Back when we had a Disney store at our mall, they had a big Lucifer plushie that went unsold for quite some time before I finally bought him; the lady at the register seemed amazed that he was being taken home. He's REALLY soft.

ironically he's named after the angel that becomes Satan. either before or while God was shaping the universe, Lucifer becomes envious of God's position or in Paradise Lost, he's envious that he was passed over for The Son or Jesus. either way, he convinces most of the angels in Heaven to rebel which results in them falling to Hell and the plan now being to corrupt God's creation of humanity. you can say Lucifer in the movie was acting a little...devilish.

I love Anastasia they took someone who was supposed to be nothing but a nasty petty girl. But then they saw potential with her character and they gave her two arcs and in two of the sequels. Give her the voice of Tress Macneille and you got a great character.

I don't think it was properly mentioned here, but they did something very interesting to her Character in the OUAT Spin-Off centered in Wonderland. There, she ram away from her World with Will Scarlett (formerly a member of Robin Hood's Merry Men, but is her Knave of Hearts), but instead winds up becoming the Red Queen (Not the Queen of Hearts. That title went to someone else who Groomed her into taking over so she could dip out) , who forms an alliance with Jafar of Agrabah to destroy Alice and the Genie she fell in love with. ....Yeaaah. Very few fans think highly of this Spin-Off, for obvious reasons. So little, in fact, they later non-canonized it in the main series. Will is re-introduced in S4 (as though he's never left Storybrooke), Jafar is recast and stays in Agrabah (with his storyline completely starting over from scratch in S6), Wonderland is never spoken of again, with the only character from that world showing up being the Mad Hatter (who's storyline was also quickly resolved early on, since his Actor got transported to the MCU). EDIT: So this was mentioned a bit in the Wonderland vid on this Channel, but I'd figure I go ahead and give a little more detail, coming from someone who has watched this series up until the end of S5.

Anastasia being the nicer of the two stepsisters wasn't something that came from Ever After - several versions of the tale depict one stepsister as being nicer than the other. But it also shows another purpose - that her role is the follower. Lady Tremaine is the abuser. The one 'in charge'. Drasilla is the enabler. She's the one who enables the one in charge. Anastasia is the Follower - the one who does it for survival. Without Cindy? SHE'D be the scapegoat. Apparently, Drasilla is the older of the two. This makes sense - she's the heir. Anastasia is the spare.

Seriously, I have to say Tremaine and maleficent could almost be sisters if they didn't live in different time periods. Heck, I think she could have been her fairy godmother even. Tremaine along with Frollo, Mother Gothel, and even Hans and Ernesto de la Cruz. are really human villains found in real life. As said before, you won't encounter an evil wizard or witch but you can encounter abusers, murdering opportunists, and manipulators of all kinds. And anyone who says that Cinderella could escape never faced what power abusers have over others.

I think the fact that we don't see what happens to the Tremaines is probably the most realistic part of the abuse analogy. Sometimes the best revenge is not letting your abuser live rent free in your head anymore. Cinderella is no longer giving them ANY attention, which is ultimately the worst thing you can do to a family of narcissists.

I don't understand why people complain about the fairy tails' happy ending. They are unreal to us, because the whole point of a fairy tail is to be unreal. Besides, most of them are well deserved reward, just like in the case of Cinderella. The only happy ending that I dislike for being too good is the Tremaines dying of the bomb. No amount of goodness in Cinderella's heart can earn such a happy ending. No mortal can do it either.

Disney also didn't "Bowdlerise" it - in the "original version", the stepsisters did not lose their eyes. For one, Disney adapted the Charles Perrault version - which was already old news when the Brothers Grimm were born. (Says so right there on the title screen people!) The Brothers Grimm version has no FAiry Godmother - the closest is the tree planted on the Brith Mother's grave. The "original" version of Cinderella was either the Greek version or the Chinese version.

When I was a kid I noticed that Cinderella looked a lot like my mom if she was drawn in the Disney art style. When my parents divorced my mom had to clean peoples' houses to support herself as well as me and my brother while she put herself through nursing school, while also having to contend with a vindictive ex-husband, who happened to be my dad. I've often said that her story was like Cinderella's if she was a single mother of two, contending with a vindictive ex-husband. Things changed when she met the man who would become my stepdad, who was like the prince if he had more agency.

Lady Tremaine is absolutely terrifying to me, especially in the third Cinderella movie. There’s something about the idea of this woman continuing to try and ruin Cinderella’s life even beyond the first happy ending that genuinely freaks me out even as an adult. Also I hate Lucifer so much and it is because of that dumb, very tedious level in that disney princess GBA game! It took so long to complete that level since it was dependent on Lucifer spawning. Every time I see that cat, he just fills me with 10 year old me’s rage.

Lady Tremaine was much scarier to me in the 3rd movie than the original for the reasons you said. What’s maddening is that she had a magical wand, with no limits, and she could have used the magic to improve her family’s life. Conjuring up an army of servants, beautifully restore the crumbling chateau, wishing up a constant flow of money all come to mind. Heck, she could have taken the “Ali Ababwa” approach and use the wand to make one or both of her daughters “royal enough” to catch the eye of a prince from another kingdom. But instead of doing any of that, Lady Tremaine tries to undo Cinderella’s happy ending, because this woman was never going to be happy as long as Cinderella was happy.

Both the Perrault and Grimm versions are just some oral versions they heard and recorded that they put their own own thoughts in too probably in writing.

These should be their punishments. Lady Tremaine: Death by Hanging. Historically speaking this is the worst way to die for nobility. Usually if a noble or royal is to be executed for whatever reason, they usually got beheaded by sword or axe or in later years, shot by firing squad. Hanging was for common criminals. Drizella: Life Without Parole. Bad but not to the level of her mother and thus not quite justified in hanging her alongside her mother. Life Without Parole is the next best thing. Anastasia: Flogging and Banishment. Her reversal of course taken into account but some kind of punishment must be given. Six dozen lashes and being banished is more than fair and all things considered, she gets off lightly. It's much better than the rest of her life in prison or worse, the gallows and the rope

Actually several years back, Disney releases a book series called “Fun-to-Read” for kids. Volume 6 “the ugly Stepsisters,” plot is similar to 1st version. Cinderella invites her step family for a visit. As usual, Lay Termaine, Lucifer, and the step sisters cause trouble. Trying to be nice Cinderella throws a surprise ball for her family (helping them to find new husbands). Sadly it backfires since her Stepfamily purposely ruin it, thinking that Cinderella was trying to show off. Leaving all of them shocked and miserable due to the fact that they had ruined their chance for a “Happily Ever After.” How ironic

I have to say Lady Tremaine is one of the scariest Disney villains. One, because like he said, she is the most relatable, a regular human. A human that abuses her stepdaughter big time. She turns her into a slave. She is willing to get innocent people hurt and even killed(tripping the man carrying the glass slipper), to get what she wants. I have taken a notice to the start of the story. "Still the father thought he needed a mother's love, so he remarried." Knowing her, she only married him for the wealth and lifestyle, which leads to point two. "It was the untimely death of the man." Think about those words, untimely and death. She had something to do with his dying. Last, while other Disney villains are pretty scary like Jafar, most of these villains just can't happen in real life, where sadly people like Lady Tremaine can and has happened, which, in my opinion, makes her the most scariest.

It took a while for me to warm up to Aqua due to her slightly lacking performance. She got plenty right, but the rest of the time she sounded rather...dead-pan. I felt bad for laughing at that line, but to this day, I still can't help myself.

The concept of Franco de Fortunato is brilliant. An evil fairy godmother (or father?) is always fascinating to me and it makes me wish he was in the third movie as the one who granted Tremaine her wand to make her dream come true. Speaking of which, I love everything about the third movie and how it explores the toxic relationship Tremaine had will ALL her daughters, not just Cinderella. Drizella and Anastasia are just as much victims of the abuse as Cindy was just not in an obvious way. Anastasia really came into her own person in the second and third movies. Her makeover in the second shows that she was always beautiful in her own way, she just needed to step away from Tremaine’s influence. It effectively makes you hate Tremaine more in how she developmentally stunted her own daughters’ growth. One of my favourite Disney villain redemption arcs.
@StarViewer68

Just like Rapunzel, another victim of an abusive mother figure, the best thing for Anastasia was getting away from her mother.

Before talking about the villains, I'd just like to speak for a moment about Cinderella as a whole. For a while I shared probably the most common opinion of the character and this movie, that it's shallow and that Cinderella is boring. In recent years I've kind of turned around on that; I instead find Cinderella rather compelling in terms of being a person trapped via circumstances. People complain that she doesn't do anything in the movie, but only because there wasn't that much she could do. This is her home, she doesn't appear to have anyone else to turn to, so she tries to make the most of her horrible situation. In this day and age, as more and more people feel trapped by their financial situation, making difficult decisions and having almost not way out of the horrible predicament they're in, I feel like there would be a lot of people who could relate to Cinderella's struggles, especially given that every time she tries to find something good in her life, she's constantly pushed back down. Sure, the idea that a Fairy Godmother comes along and makes all her dreams come true isn't really applicable in real life, but then again, that's the whole point of wish-fulfillment, isn't it? I don't think wish-fulfillment movies are necessarily a bad thing, we just need to keep a cool head about it, recognize that it's good catharsis to have stories like this while remaining rational about the reality of our own real-life problems. Indeed, I think Disney's desire to tell feel-good stories like this rooted in that very line of thinking (something that's explored a bit in the movie Saving Mr. Banks). As for the villains of Cinderella, starting the "wicked stepmother" Lady Tremaine, I think what's compelling about her is, much like Cinderella herself, the circumstances surrounding her. She was a widow who married Cinderella's father, but after he died, she revealed that she was apparently jealous that she looked better than her own daughters, Anastasia and Drizella, and for that supposed crime, Lady Tremaine proceeded to make Cinderella's life as miserable as possible. It wasn't enough for her to to be emotionally abusive to Cinderella and to make Cinderella a slave in her own house, Lady Tremaine also robbed Cinderella of any chance at potential happiness and escape for this terrible life. It's this excessive cruelty, coupled with her older yet dignified look and how she's performed and animated that really make a great villain, at least in my eyes. Fascinating, though, that she doesn't get any comeuppance for her actions, we just get one last shocked look on her face when she sees Cinderella has the other glass slipper and that's it. Perhaps the message was that it doesn't matter what happens to Lady Tremaine and her two daughters, that Cinderella can finally put that life behind her and move on to better things. Of course, the direct-to-video sequels undermined that a bit, but they do get bonus points for showing how selfish Lady Tremaine really is. She seemed to care about her daughters in the first movie, though there were hints that she was mostly using them as a means to increase her social status, wanting them to marry the Prince in order to essentially become royalty. This gets proven when she disapproves of Anastasia wanting a relationship with a poor baker in Cinderella II, and putting Anastasia in Cinderella's as the person who fit the glass slipper in Cinderella III... which, by the way, while most of the Disney sequels kind of suck, it's amazing how buck-wild the third Cinderella movie ended up being, with Lady Tremaine stealing the Fairy Godmother's magic wand and messing with the timeline to her advantage. I don't know if it's a good movie, or if it's even consistent with the first movie in terms of its characterization for characters like the King, but it's still a surprisingly entertaining watch. There's not much to say about Anastasia and Drizella, they are basically agents of Lady Tremaine to help make sure Cinderella suffers as much as possible (without outright beating her at least). In fact, my children's literature professor in college had us watch this movie and pointed out how the two are essentially the same character, pointing out the moment where they talk simultaneously specifically to demonstrate this fact. So it's kind of interesting how the people who wrote the two sequels decided that Anastasia actually isn't as bad as Drizella and gave her a redemption arc. Not sure why they went with that, but it worked out (kind of). I will say this, though, Cinderella is awfully forgiving of the years of abuse from her stepsister in the sequels, in particular the moment where she rips apart Cinderella's dress right before leaving for the ball sticks out in my mind. Lastly there's Lucifer, and it's embarrassing for me to admit this, but it wasn't until my children's lit professor pointed out the significance of the name "Lucifer" did I actually make that connection to the cat. He certainly is a bad cat, just as cruel to Cinderella as her stepmother and stepsisters... which is ironic because Cinderella actually tries to be nice to Lucifer, scolding Bruno for dreaming about chasing Lucifer, only for Lucifer to gloat over denying Cinderella the key to her locked door when catching Gus... Then again, maybe Lucifer is just salty over Cinderella struggling to find something nice to say about Lucifer. Still, Lucifer's meanness doesn't just extend to the mice in this picture, so I suppose it's only fitting how he's the only one to gets some kind of karma dealt to him, falling out the window as Bruno goes after him... of course, he somehow survives, as he shows up in the sequels. Guess he landed on his feet. :P

Alice in Wonderland is going to be such a fascinating one, because, the way I see it, everyone can be considered an antagonist, but not a villain. An antagonist is someone that hinders the progress of the protagonist, and really, for the most part that's what everyone in Wonderland does, the Dodo who sets up a pointless race, the Hatter and Hare that nudge Alice around the table, the Cheshire Cat that is a total trickster, in some respects they all seem to hinder Alice. Yet, none of them seem particularly immoral, it's just who they are. Of course the Queen of Hearts can easily be seen as the baddie of the movie, unless we want to headcannon the book into the movie, but it does make sense that Disney would label the Queen as a villain. More-so than the Ringmaster.

18:17-18:58 I totally agree with you, man. I found it much more satisfying to finally see Lady Tremaine get a humiliating dose of physical karma after the many years of abuse she put both Cinderella and her birth daughters through (besides Drizella earning the same fate). This is what happens when you steal something that isn't yours and let power and jealousy get to your head.

The Tremaines, along with Lucifer also appear in the computer game 'cinderella's dollhouse ', a game in which you get to design different rooms in the castle and cottage, and the Tremaines humorously criticize your interior decorating skills. I think it's a game that a lot of people have forgotten, but I used to love playing it when I was a child.

I wouldn’t say it’s a masterpiece by any means but I know I watched that move far more times than the first, personally. I liked that Anastasia actually got a personality in that movie. And she wanted to be better.

Lady Tremaine is one of my favourite villains as I grew up with Cinderella 1 and 3. Because in the third film she tries to sabotage Cinderella's happy ending like the voice's saboteurs does in CBBC's Trapped, using time travel and mind control spells which would send her to Azkaban, she also reminds me of Miss Lebrun a primarily school teacher who was very similar to Lady Tremaine and treated me poorly as a kid (I can also relate to Cinderella). I also like Anastasia and Drizella as they were hilarious and even an inspiration for Verruca Salt.

It's a shame you didn't mention the Cinderella-adjacent/ Disney-adjacent films. Rodgers and Hammerstein's Cinderella (1997) from the Wonderful World of Disney, Confessions of an Ugly Stepsister (2002) also from the Wonderful World of Disney, Miramax's Ella Enchanted (2004) which was done whilst Disney owned Miramax, and Disney's movie version of the musical Into the Woods (2014). Having said that, I'm really enjoying these retrospectives, especially the parts about the comics because I've never read any of them so it's really interesting learning about that area of Disney!

I’m interested to see how the Alice in Wonderland video comes out. Aside from the Queen of Hearts and the Walrus, who were definitely evil, it’s hard to tell whether most of the other crazy characters are truly evil. The Cheshire Cat definitely caused trouble, but he was really more of a nuisance. The Card Guards aided the Queen of Hearts, but they were terrified of getting their heads chopped off. The King of Hearts also aided the Queen, but he didn’t seem that evil to me. Every kooky character was somewhat dangerous, but they were sometimes pleasant as well (except for the Queen and the Walrus).

Stephan is the romantic type and wants to find someone out of love just as his parents did when they were young. during this he meets and interacts with the Fairy God Mother who also kept an eye of Cinderella/Kitty. she helps her due to the girl's kind heart.

The scene that always stuck out to me from this version is where Cinderella is going to retrieve the other slipper but is acting all cocky while doing so, and the stepmom figures it out, prompting that evil glare as she follows her to lock her in her room. And whenever I think about that I think "THAT'S WHY YOU NEVER CELEBRATE EARLY YA COCKY MORON!" Sure it makes sense why she was that way seeing as she was so close, but never celebrate a victory before you're actually over the finish line. A valuable lesson to be honest.

You know to make it more like the og Perrault story, there'd be a redemption arc for Drizella too. Interestingly, if you pay attention in Cinderella 2, we see a look of surprise on Drizella's face after Anastasia stands up to Lady Tremaine. She's so shocked and possibly amazed she lingers back as her mother leaves. Like she's amazed her sister has such guts and is asserting herself and finding love like that. Plus as she leaves with Lady Tremaine, we see her look back as Anastasia and the baker enjoy their moment, like she's showing genuine interest towards her sister and her choices and maybe even questioning her life choices and Lady Tremaine as their mother or a person. Also in Cinderella 3, we see that her mother is giving Anastasia the perks and attention but not Drizella, even though she acts as the loyal daughter to her. We also saw a moment where Lady Tremaine threatened to get Drizella banished like she did Cinderella if she didn't keep quiet and Drizella looks genuinely scared of her.

Probably watched it more than the original tbh and Anastasia my favorite part of it. I like how you handled it showing her arc during the movies and how surprisingly well she developed. Also semi related question, how do you feel about Prudence? (I think that's how her names spelled) I don't think she's truly a villain but in the first segment of Cinderella II she was an antagonist for Cinderella. I only mention her because I'm surprised you didn't being her up at all.
