The last time I tried to use the voucher, I don't know if it applied to the total. Has anyone used it?
It might be just for your first purchase.

I was actually wondering why she wasnt on the list

Tried to stick to the decade of Resident Evil 2. (Except TLM)

Haha, I'll give you this one but I'd say Jafar or Scar should take the top spot.

EDIT: No, it's Scar. Kills Mufasa and then convinces Simba he did it. That is some seriously fucked up shit for a kid's movie.

I can see that. This is incredibly hard to rank.

I might put Hades as the top. I just like him

The one who cursed Beast for not letting her stay the night

Wasn't she actually a queen or princess?

Ursula
Scar
Oogie Boogie
Jafar
Hades
Monseigneur Claude Frollo
Gaston
Ratcliffe
Shan Yu

---------------------
9.) Shan Yu
Who is this guy again? Honestly, the real villain of Mulan seems to be ancient Chinese society that says a woman can't fight.

8.) Monseigneur Claude Frollo
Okay, he has literary clout, but other than showing clerical problems with sexuality.....he doesn't have nearly as much personality as the other villains. Meh.

7.) Govenor Ratcliffe
So Ratcliffe is a colonial entrepreneur who is meant to represent colonial greed, hypocrisy, and xenophobia. He is disgustingly snooty and vile (in a good way), but like Frollo, he is more generic than the other villains. Bonus points though for Percy the dog.

6.) Oogie Boogie
Yeah, this one hurt to put here. He is absolutely an awesome character with some of the most memorable character songs. Seeing Ken Page's live performance of the "Oogie Boogie Song" will give you chills. (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2X-lWDPno-g). I guess where he lacks is that other than his musical numbers, he is kind of underdeveloped. Like in Mulan, The Nightmare Before Christmas's actual antagonist of the movie isn't a typical villain; the main antagonist is tragically Jack himself and his inability to feel content with the wonderful life he had in front of him.

5.) Jafar
From here on out, I feel like I am trying to rank my own favorite children. Jafar, unfortunately, had to be placed her despite Alladin being one of my all-time favorite animated films. Jafar is your generic twirly mustache villain who lurks in the shadows. Honestly, I think that without Gilbert Gotfried's Iago, he would have been slightly underwhelming. That said, he does turn into a freaking giant genie and enchant the sultan, which gives him points for raw power.

4.) Scar
This is another one that hurt to place so relatively low. Scar is the perfection of a very archetypical villain. He's jealous, plotting, arrogant, backstabbing, and opportunistic. He kills his own brother ffs. Scar's "Be Prepared" is a song of legend in musicality and animation. He doesn't do anything particularly new, but he does villainy really well. I mean...killing a kid's dad then raising that kid in a world of lies....that's messed up. That said, The Lion King isn't groundbreaking, borrowing heavily (at the least) from Japan's Kimba or Shakespear's Hamlet. Scar is a refined perfection of a timeless archetype.

3.) Hades
A prefaceI am probably biased because I am part Greek. That may influence my opinion that Hades is one of the most underrated villains in Disney history. He has the visual whimsicality of Alladin's genie, but with more nasty villainy which makes him quite fun. Also, his character seems more nuanced and "human" or "relatable" than anyone else in the entire movie. Hades is constantly ruminating, second-guessing himself, trying to get along with an Olympian family that he is alienated from. Hades could carry his own solo film. Where Hades lacks is a great setpiece, memorable song. Lastly, does anyone else agree that Dave Chapelle would be a great live-action Hades? Out of left field casting, I know.....but I think it could work.

2.) Ursula
Ursula was hard to place here, but I think she deserves it. Disney was a dumpster fire by the time The Little Mermaid came along and they hit it out of the park to preserve an eventual billion-dollar entity. Ursula was a queen beech in a deliciously self-indulgent way, with memorable songs. She had a lot of screen time other than just being a generic person on a thrown or in the shadows. This is a "gut" placement, but for some reason it feels right.

1.) Gaston
Gaston is the best. This dude is a d-bag. Everyone has met this guy or has been him/her themselves. Along with that, he has one of the greatest musical numbers in any medium which is entirely about himself. Thematically, he represents everything that the Beast and beauty is not. Also, he uses antlers in all of his decorating.

I thought I saw a man brought to life
He was warm, he came around like he was dignified
He showed me what it was to cry
Well you couldn't be that man that I adored
You don't seem to know, or seem to care what your heart is for
I don't know him anymore
There's nothin' where he used to lie
Our conversation has run dry
That's what's goin' on
Nothing's fine, I'm torn
I'm all out of faith, this is how I feel
I'm cold and I am shamed
Lying naked on the floor
Illusion never changed
Into something real
I'm wide awake and I can see the perfect sky is torn
You're a little late
I'm already torn
So I guess the fortune teller's right
Should have seen just what was there and not some holy light
But you crawled beneath my veins and now
I don't care, I have no luck
I don't miss

Yeah, I just smelled it again and it made me want to gag. It didn't even smell normal rotten. It smelled like if you marinated it in old gym socks and sour milk.

Alright, back to TJ's it goes. I'll use it as an excuse to buy beer or chocolate or something while I'm there. They have great chocolate. They really do.

If you just bought it and it smells bad, take it back. Don't throw it out.

I've already cut it up and such. Could I still take it back? I think Trader Joes will close before I get there.

I just bought some beef brisket from Trader Joe's with a 7/26/2021 freeze by date.
It smells really bad. Is this a normal thing for "aged" beef or should I toss it out?
