Hello and welcome to another Top 11 by Daffy. (Okay, this is the first episode. But, I can't think of a better opening.) Why Top 11? ‘Cause I like the number 11. You got a problem with that? Anyways, there has been a lot of talk about the top villains that Disney ever came up with. Well, this is a list of the Top 11 Non-Disney villains we grew up with as conceived by me, Daffy. I'd like to point out before we begin that I based this list on the movies I was able to find around my grandma's house. It obviously has a LOT of holes in it. But, if I forgot one, feel free to tell me. I won't really alter this list, but, everyone is entitled to their own opinion. #11 Hunter Van Pelt (Jumanji) 
More of a bumbling idiot then an actual villain, this guy was the man that was hunting Robin Williams in Jumanji. He made so many mistakes, you just wanted to go into the movie and say, "All right, you dumbass. This is how you shoot." But, since Jumanji is one of the first action type movies we all saw as a kid, I figured it was the best way to start our countdown. #10 Thrax (Osmosis Jones) 
In my opinion, this movie was disgusting and annoying. But, one of the only characters that didn't really get on my nerves was the villain: a virus named Thrax. He is on a mission to destroy the entire city of Frank (which, if you don't know, is just really one guy and all the cells in his body). He was a badass. I thought his character design, and, really, his attitude was pretty awesome. He kinda reminded me of a cartoon version of John Travolta's character in Pulp Fiction. #9 Ivan Ooze (Power Rangers Movie) 
Okay, we all know this movie was pretty much stupid (at least, thanks to the Nostalgia Critic, we know this). But, in all honesty, this is one evil dude. Even though his sole purpose was to, you guessed it, take over the world. (Cue the "Of course!" segment.) He was a gross character, but maybe that's what makes him slightly cooler. Just because the movie he was in was bad, that doesn't mean he needs to be persecuted anymore so than usual. #8 Captain Hook (Hook) 
Played by Dustin Hoffman, this Hook is one I can really get behind. If you don't know the plot of the movie, it goes something like this: Many years after the events of Peter Pan, Peter is living on Earth, all grown up and has a family. But, He must journey back to Never Land when Hook comes and kidnaps his kids. Okay. It's not much of a story. But, Hoffman takes the character of Hook and turns it into an art form. Besides all this, the reason I can learn to love this villain is the fact that he can hold a grudge even after forty years. Amazing. And I thought I was the one with issues. #7 Cat R. Waul (Feivel Goes West) 
This was one sophisticated cat. Do you recognize him? No? He was the villain in the sequel to An American Tale. Still not ringing a bell? Well, screw it. The reason this guy is pretty cool is that he can act all calm and collected even when he is about to devour one of those innocent mice in the film. Even so, this was one cat you did NOT want to mess with. #6 The Commando Elite (Small Soldiers) 
These were some seriously messed up toys. I seriously think they could have given Chucky a run for his money. I don't think I was ever more scared of a toy in my life. I mean, how can you not be scared of toys that would kill you as soon as look at you? Even though there goal was pretty lame (to destroy a bunch of scaredy toys that can't defend themselves named the Gorgonites), they way they sought their goal was pretty awesome. #5 Rasputin (Anastasia) 
What makes this villain cool is the fact that he is dead. Er, rather, UN-dead. When he was alive, he was hell bent on killing the Russian Imperial Family. But, he died in the process. When it is revealed that one of the Royal Family survived, he rises himself from the dead in order to finish the job. You can't get more dedicated to a purpose than that. One thing I like about this character is that parts of him fall off at random moments (such as his eye, his hand, or his entire head). Now THAT is what I call losing your head at a bad time. #4 Carface (All Dogs go to Heaven) 
This was one bad bulldog. In every kids movie I've ever seen, this is the only one to ever actually kill the hero. I would never want to double cross this dog. I think even Cujo thought he was a badass. Alas, the studios took this movie too far and made it into a TV show. In the TV show, Carface is pretty much a wuss. Don't you hate it when corporations take a series way too far? #3 Hexxus (Ferngully) 
I'm not sure where to start with this guy. He's the puff of smoke demon in the movie Ferngully. He is out to destroy all of nature. I think one of the things that makes this guy a little cooler is the fact that he is just a puff of smoke. How the hell are you supposed to fight smoke? I also like the skeletal form he takes at the end of the movie. That thing gave me nightmares for like a month when I first saw it. #2 The T-Rex (Land Before Time) 
(I couldn't find any pictures of the actual one in the movie. Deal with it.) The mother of all predators. The scariest lizard this side of Godzilla. And the main villain in the dinosaur movie we all saw as a kid, the Land Before Time. But one thing that makes this character a little bit weak is his choice of food. The entire movie, he is chasing baby dinos. Can't he find anything a little more filling? I doubt Little Foot will quench his hunger for meat. But, he was still one scary monster. And for that, he is number two only to this next guy. #1 The Nightmare King (Little Nemo) 
Do you remember Little Nemo, the anime film that was about a little boy that travels into the world where dreams are made? No? Well then, piss off. This was one HUMONGO dude. Not to mention scary as all hell. He was the king of the Nightmare Realm. He was the biggest, scariest badass I had ever seen in a movie. The only thing that I didn't like about him is the fact that he is taken down by a boy who was no more then 10 years old. But, other then that, this guy gave me nightmares for years. As a matter of fact, this guy still gives me nightmares. And that is what makes him Number 1 Villain of the Non-Disney Kid's Films. This has bee a Top 11 by Daffy. PS I know I said my next review would be about the Beetlejuice cartoon series, but I think I'll do something else. It'll be a surprise. Look out for it. PPS Also be on the look out for more Top 11s by Daffy.
