I started this countdown a long time ago, but never finished it, so I thought I'll start it over now that I'm back.

Honestly, not being invited to a birthday party is a really stupid excuse for cursing an infant, even if she was planning to do it regardless.

Even though I love her and think that their is more to her evil and actions than not being invited but when you put it this way, she does have the weakest motive.

Her weak motive is one of the things that make her so wicked ;)

I have always thought she had wanted an excuse to curse Aurora, because of her hatred of the kingdom maybe, and she just used not being invited to cover it up. The excuse its self is very weak

OnceABlueMoon picked Hans - To be the King of his own country:
I can't believe so many don't like Maleficent's motivation. She is so evil and self absorbed that even the slightest thing against her is worthy of a 16 year plan to completely destroy everything the king and queen hold dear. Just shows how completely evil, and possibly insane, she is. She's lovely :)

Now Han's on the other hand has a good motive. But we see almost zero backstory on his part to make it worth anything. Yuck.

It's why I never really though she was all the evil, just bratty. She over exaggerates a lot.

Obviously. I hate how people think Maleficent is OMG SO BAD@SS but she's the biggest drama queen ever with the most absurd, frankly stupid reason I've ever heard for being evil. BelleRose is right, she IS just bratty, not bad@ss at all.

Tygers_Eye picked Evil Queen - To be fairest one of them all:
On Maleficent: To be fair, the narrative makes it clear the snub was not the REAL motivation for Maleficent's wickedness. It's pretty clear she doesn't really care whether she was invited or not, she just used the "snub" as an excuse to inflict terror and pain on everyone. She's doing it for the sake of sadism, not to get back at them because she's legitimately offended by not being invited.

On the Queen: I say "To be the fairest in the land" is not a strong motivation because a) she's not really a very strong character. We're told she's cold and vain, but we don't know much else about her. b) How can she guarantee she remains the "fairest" in a whole kingdom? Does she just go around murdering prettier girls the mirror mentions? c) Even if she goes around killing beautiful girls, how long can she keep this up as she'll just keep getting older and older, and fairer and fairer girls will just keep cropping up?

Finally: She has magic that she uses to change her appearance. Surely she can use her magic to keep herself young and/or make herself even more beautiful rather than wasting her time and others by killing girls who turn out to be prettier than her - which will happen more and more frequently the older she gets.

^I don't know why everyone thinks she could use her magic to make her younger/more beautiful. She followed a recipe in a book and there is no proof that there is another one telling you how to make yourself more beautiful/young.

She is a strong villain but the motive itself, eeeeh. Nooo Evil Queen and Gaston have some of the best motives, vanity and lust are such interesting sins for a villain.
