I swear to God that I remember an ending scene for Shrek that shows the characters singing and there's a cut to Farquad in the Dragons' stomach singing "staying alive".
YES! I had forgotten what the song was, but I remembered he sang during the credits from in her stomach. Which means it took him a REALLY long time to die.
2:11 Something that the narrator of the original video completely missed, Kai actually DID take Tai Lung’s chi in the spirit realm. Although Kai and Tai Ling’s interaction was never formally mentioned in the movie and Kai never summoned Tai Ling to fight on his behalf when Kai returned to the world of the living, you can see Tai Lung’s jaded chi charm amongst the others on Kai’s belt during the movie. It’s more of a blink and you’ll miss it type of reference, but it is most definitely there.
I would have thought that the Pharaoh from Prince of Egypt had a worser death since he literally had plagues attack his city and then he died via drowning. Don't forget people, the animators who messed up on Prince of Egypt had to work on Shrek as "punishment".
Fun fact about that story in the bible, God tells Moses multiple times to go to the pharaoh. But everytime God also tells Moses that God will harden the Pharaohs heart, so that the pharaoh will not listen to Moses.
something the list didn't include was the fact that Farquaad's "death" didn't happen in the first movie (you can still see him alive in the stomach during the pre-credits sing-along scene), but with the Shrek 4-D ride (yes, a theme park ride), he was a ghost, so he did eventually die
While shrek forever after didn't have the actual main villain rumplestiltskin die, during the end credits fiona sang to his pet goose, forcing it to blow up in front of him while everyone else cheered and laughed around him, he was then later forced to dance without even having time to process his pets death. While a goose isn't as impactful, it's still pretty messed up.
If I had to choose a singular DreamWorks movie that’s my favourite, it might be Megamind. It’s so funny. If I could choose a franchise, it’d be Kung Fu Panda. All three of them are amazing imo. But I feel like DreamWorks has a bunch of great movies in their catalogue. It’s a shame they’ve been bad for so long.
@@louisvanwouw7022 I guess I mean that after The Rise of the Guardians pretty much every movie afterwards was mediocre. Trolls, Boss Baby, etc. They weren't AWFUL, but to me it definitely felt like a downgrade compared to their earlier movies. I've heard The Bad Guys were pretty alright though, so maybe they're going back to their glory days soon :3
The sequel movies were amazing in the cases of say HTTYD or KFP. But Trolls is very meh. Especially the villains. Look at the villains of many of DreamWorks franchises. Lord Farquaad, Fairy Godmother, Rumpelstiltskin, Tai Lung, Shen, Kai, Grimmel, Drago, Red Death, hell even Prince Charming in Shrek 2. They have so much character to them and demand authority and presence.
In How to Train your Dragon(movies and tv series) ,Dragons have a hide that is fire resistant but not the inner parts of itself,so yeah,very brutal death to the Red Calamity
I like how he asks if any protags in these movies have killed their antags while on the sequel to the movie where Po dusted the villain which was shown earlier lol
Looking at Disney villains, the only ones who died due directly from actions taken by the protagonist(s) are Maleficent, Ursula, and Shan Yu. All others died from their own pride, arrogance, greed or perilous predicament they put themself in. It's very common for villains to die this way.
In the actual musical, (like the live action in a play type) Quasimodo hurtles Frollo off the roof, (Hunchback of Notre Dame) you can consider that as counting.
General Mandible: Killed by falling on a thick root Lord Farquaad: Eaten by Dragon and digested alive Fairy Godmother: Explodes into oblivion and turns to bubbles Prince Charming: Crushed by tower Red Death: Is ignited on the inside and dies from impact and explodes Drago Bludvist: Drowns Grimmel the Grisly: Falls into the ocean Chef and Creek: Eaten by hill monster Tai Lung: Explodes and is sent to spirit realm Shen: Crushed by cannon and is obliterated by the following explosion Kai: Explodes and is blasted into oblivion by Po's chi
Favorite DreamWorks movie is the third How to Train Your Dragon movie spoiler below Its the only one with a realistic ending that's not just all happiness and sunshine. It really hits you in the feels
Late to the punch, but my favorite Dreamworks movie is Kung Fu Panda 2 hands down. Just as funny as the first movie, but adds it in with an extra layer of drama that is not tryhard by any means, and perfectly constructs a brilliant story and lore for a kung fu movie, and Lord Shen is one of their greatest villains by far! I love everything about it!
1. Yes, im afraid of heights 2. My favorite dreamworks movie is how to train your dragon 1. 3. Yes, dragons have some fire immunity on the outside, not the inside.
1- they didn't mention the prince of egypt and the plagues at all, it is implied at the end of the movie that the priests died from their boils and sickness because at the end of the film we don't see them with the pharoah and his armies, who of course are drowned by the sea coming back together denying them the ability to cross. 2- While Not a villain but, the prisoner from Joseph King of Dreams. The criminal Joseph meets at first in the prison was supposed to be put to death, what we don't see is the method in which this was done which historically was brutal even if you don't believe this tale happened religously. 3- No mentions of Sinbad (Not a villain but I imagine that having your skin worn by a goddess is pretty bad)
Hey! I write a lot of scripts for Wickedbinge and it's subsidiary channels (1upBinge and OtakuBinge mostly)! I'm surprised to see someone reacting to them! Although this isn't one of mine it's still fun to see.
What if after the fairy god mother turned into bubbles they were all sentiant like oogie boogiea bugs and qhen a bubble popped it would hurt and kill apart of the fairy god mother
In road to el Dorado the two protagonists not only push the villain down a cliff, but when he survives they make it so he is arrested by Spanish conquistadors. Which is arguably worse than death
6:50 I think we did have those type of kid movies where protagonist kills the villian on purpose, we would have way more messed up people on this planet
It’s also just a general story writing thing. We can’t have our heroic protagonist slay the villain lest they be an actual incarnation of evil. It would ruin their development as a hero. This is why villains are often imprisoned or killed off by other villains. Think Scar being eaten by the Hyenas and not Simba or Darth Vader killing Sidious rather than Luke doing it.
@@itsturniptime3699 There are a few exceptions, though, with Disney. Sleeping Beauty and Little Mermaid had the Princes dispatch the villain. Princess and the Frog might count, as in Tiana was an active reason as to why Facilier got dragged off by the shadow friends by breaking his power source. Oh, and Wreck It Ralph definitely caused the villain death by triggering something that purifies the CyBugs when the villain was assimilated by one.
@@karlthorkildson4650 not sure about the first two though I thought the dude in Lil Mermaid drove a ship into kaiju Ursala which counts. Dr. Facilier was dragged to hell by his friends on the other side and while yes, Tiana was the overall cause for it, she didn’t deal the killing blow, merely set up for someone else to do the job for her. As for King Candy, he was technically killed by the giant bug which then gained his attributes, but is not the same entity as far as I’m aware. The bugs appear to be a hivemind similar to Xenomorphs and so can’t exactly be considered good or justified and are more like giant beasts rather than thinking individuals so killing it would probably be fine.
@@itsturniptime3699 With Maleficent in Sleeping Beauty, it was a team effort. The three fairies, which were really the main characters in that version, enchanted the Prince's sword so it would home in on her heart when he threw it.
