Movies that come out of the House of Mouse often lead fans to create a plethora of theories that explain various plot holes or links to other works. It&#39;s rare that a Disney movie doesn&#39;t lead to the creation of fan theories, so you can pretty much expect to find tons of them online.

Pop Culture Fan Theories

Villains

One of the best things about the Internet is that anyone can put out a theory about anything much like these fan theories about&nbsp;Disney villains. While most of the time this results in some sort of crackpot diatribe nobody can understand other than the person who posts something on sites like Reddit, there are occasions where a theory about something in popular culture actually makes a good amount of sense.

Theories like the narrator at the beginning of&nbsp;Aladdin&nbsp;being the Genie in disguise were floated around the Internet for years before Disney finally confirmed it to be true. The theories out there that haven&#39;t been confirmed are many, but that doesn&#39;t mean they don&#39;t have some element of probability in them. So be sure to keep speculating while you&#39;re revisiting these movies on <a href="https://disneyplus.bn5x.net/c/1217251/707629/9358?subid1=2861969&amp;subid2=Disney%2B&amp;subid3=comlink&amp;u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.disneyplus.com%2F" target="_blank">Disney+</a>, because you never know which ones will turn out to be true.

Theories about&nbsp;Disney villains have been kicked around online since the beginning of the Internet, and there are more than a few containing some element of plausibility.

Of all the fan theories about&nbsp;Disney villains&nbsp;found online, these 15 are the ones that may, in fact, contain a nugget of truth, so find the ones you consider to be the most plausible&nbsp;and vote them up to see which one rises to the top!

Disney&#39;s <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/small-details-disney-movies-bronze-age/erin-maxwell" target="_blank">Bronze Age</a> (1970-1988) is better known to fans as Disney&#39;s &quot;Dark Age,&quot; named in part because of a lack of success seen with the majority of the films released, but also&nbsp;due to the fact that the era began with the death of Walt Disney.&nbsp;After Walt&#39;s death, the studio changed their tune in how they approached storytelling and animating, with more of the stories using&nbsp;darker themes and the <a href="https://www.ranker.com/crowdranked-list/top-50-greatest-animated-films-of-all-time" target="_blank">animation</a> having a messy look with heavy black lines.

This didn&#39;t sit well with audiences and critics at the time, but these films have had a recent resurgence in popularity due to their catchy songs, fun characters, and compelling stories. In other words - yes, they&#39;re a bit rough around the edges, but they&#39;re still charming and deserve more credit!

Anyone who has seen Up knows that the <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/saddest-2010s-disney-moments/jessica-bedewi" target="_blank">saddest Disney moments</a> are powerful enough to ruin your entire week. An adult walking out of&nbsp;a Disney film might find themselves wondering, &quot;Why do Disney movies make me cry?&quot; Well, the answer is pretty simple. Disney knows how to stick to a tried-and-true storytelling formula. They are masters of structure&nbsp;and have perfected, inside and out, the art of making grown adults cry while watching children&#39;s movies.&nbsp;

There&#39;s no doubt that death is one of Disney&#39;s favorite tools in the emotional storytelling toolbox. Whether it&#39;s a parent, a beloved friend, or...&nbsp;let&#39;s be honest, it&#39;s probably a parent,&nbsp;someone is always dying in a Disney movie. But, there are plenty of scenes that manage to yank tears out of the eyes of the audience without resorting to the end of a life.&nbsp;

What are the best fairytale movies ever made? The films on this list include some wonderful, classic tales. Some are based on <a href="http://www.ranker.com/list/fairy-tale-books/reference">actual fairy tales</a>, and others are simply so fantastical they qualify. A great fairy tale movie manages to capture the movie goer&#39;s imagination with a compelling storyline, interesting characters and certainly, great acting (including voice acting). Which fairytale films are your favorites? Vote them up on this list, and be sure to add any favorites that are missing.

<a href="http://www.ranker.com/list/the-best-and-worst-disney-animated-movies/disney-fangirl">Disney movies</a> immediately spring to mind whenever great fairytale films are discussed. For decades, Disney&#39;s animated tales of magical lands filled with colorful characters, including princes and princesses, and dastardly villains enthralled millions of movie fans. Oh, and yes, everyone lives happily ever after, of course.

But Disney&#39;s animated films aren&#39;t the only great fairy tale movies for kids -- not by a long shot. Some truly excellent fairytale movies aren&#39;t animated at all. Examples? 1998&#39;s Ever After&nbsp;was a great, romantic take on the classic Cinderella fairy tale, and 2007&#39;s Enchanted&nbsp;was a great nod to some of the best fairytale films ever made. And no list of the best fairytale movies would be complete without The Princess Bride,&nbsp;arguably one of the <a href="http://www.ranker.com/crowdranked-list/the-best-movies-of-all-time">best movies of all-time</a> -- fairytales or not!

Some of the best fairy tale movies are primarily for children, but in recent years, several new, darker movies based on classic folklore tales have emerged, including 2011&#39;s Snow White and the Huntsman.

Enjoy voting on this list of the greatest fairytale movies ever made to which one is the best of all time!

Who are the best Disney princesses? For decades, <a class="edS-cl" href="https://www.ranker.com/list/best-disney-animated-movies/ranker-film?ref=internalCrossLinking_keyword">Walt Disney films</a> have featured beautiful princesses. Some, like Rapunzel from Tangled,&nbsp;lived in ancient castles, tucked away from the world. Other princesses, like Ariel from The Little Mermaid,&nbsp;lived under the sea. Each of the animated young women on this list is considered a true Disney princess, but which one is your favorite? Vote for her, and vote down any princess you don&#39;t think deserves a place of royal honor on this list.

The vast majority of <a class="edS-cl" href="https://www.ranker.com/list/disney-movies-you-probably-forgot-about/bailey-cavender?ref=internalCrossLinking_keyword">the Disney movie</a> princesses listed here are actually real royalty, born into their titles. Some, however, aren&#39;t actually princesses, though they are no doubt beautiful and, in some cases, heroic. Jane Porter, from Walt Disney&#39;s &#39;Tarzan,&#39; is not true royalty. No, Jane is from Baltimore. No royal families in Maryland (that we know of). Cinderella is hidden away by her evil stepmother, but later meets the Prince, and becomes her royal highness. And Merida, from Disney and Pixar&#39;s 2012 hit movie Brave,&nbsp;is technically a princess&mdash;but she&#39;s far from helpless. Merida seems to be ushering in a whole new kind of Disney heroine: one who is beautiful, smart, and independent!

Who are the oldest Disney princesses? Snow White was the first princess to be featured in a Walt Disney Picture film, in 1937&#39;s classic Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs.&nbsp;The aforementioned Cinderella (from 1950&#39;s Cinderella) is the second oldest, followed by Princess Aurora, from Disney&#39;s 1959 animated movie Sleeping Beauty.&nbsp;Yes, they are fictional characters, but wow don&#39;t they age well?

Disney villains come in many forms. Some, like the evil sorcerer Jafar (&#39;Aladdin&#39;) and the &quot;Mistress of All Evil,&#39; Maleficent (&#39;Sleeping Beauty&#39;), have magical powers that allow them to wreak havoc on their poor, unsuspecting victims. Great Walt Disney movie villains may also be &quot;regular&quot; people who are simply bad apples.

Speaking of bad apples, Queen Grimhilde, from Disney&#39;s classic &#39;Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs,&#39; didn&#39;t necessarily have magical powers, but she was cruel beyond measure to Snow White, and a schemer of the highest order. Certainly, the same could be said of the horrible, no good Cruella de Vil from Disney&#39;s &#39;101 Dalmatians.&#39;

Some of the best Disney movie villains aren&#39;t even human. Examples? How about the evil python Kaa from &#39;The Jungle Book&#39;? And without question Scar, the power hungry, sinister baby brother of Mufasa in &#39;The Lion King&#39; is worthy of a spot on this list. Finally, last but certainly not least, the Big Bad Wolf from Walt Disney&#39;s &#39;Three Little Pigs&#39; is a menacing character.
