We saw Moana 2 the day before it opened. The animation was
amazing, but the songs were underwhelming. And the villain didn’t show up until
the end credits. The last Disney movie I can remember with a villain was Hans
in Frozen (2013). And Hans was barely IN Frozen. Mary Shelley once said, “The
story of villains is much more entertaining than the story of heroes, because
monsters are not born, they’re made. They don’t emerge from the void or
darkness by themselves, but they are shaped by circumstances, by the wounds of
the world around them. They reflect the deepest of human pain, rejection,
loneliness, misunderstanding. A hero is defined by his acts of bravery, but a
villain is the result of a heart that was once pure and ended up corrupted. The
monsters, in their tragedy, show us what could happen to us all, if the world
turned its back on us.”
