Bunk beds, popcorn and animation: the best Disney characters of all time pt 2

A list of some of the most controversial, funny, charming, and goofy, Disney characters in the history of the franchise. Get the kids all settled in the bunk beds, get the popcorn popping and get ready for the best Disney characters of all time:

Donald Duck

Did you know that Donald Duck’s birthday is June 9, 1934? He is 73 years old. The more you know, right? Anyways, Donald Duck is an interesting Disney character because he seems to happy-go-lucky and good natured, but has one of the most explosive and violent tempers of any of the characters in the Disney franchise. Donald Suck was one of the most popular animated figures during World War II as audiences were looking for “edgier” cartoon characters. Many of the films during the World War II era had Donald in propaganda types films, the most famous being “Der Fuehrer’s Face” where Donald was a worker in “Nutzi Land” as a performance chip factory worker where the stress of the job, long hours, small food rations and being forced to salute the picture of Adolf Hiter at every turned let to a nervous breakdown for Donald. The film won the Academy Award for Animated Short film. He was also in other films from that era like “Donald Gets Drafted” and “Commando Duck.” One of the most instantly recognized Disney characters, Donald Duck is a living, animated legend.

Sebastian

Everyone loves Sebastian or, full name, Horatio Thelonious Ignatius Crustaceous Sebastian. The servant of King Triton, Sebastian is a Caribbean-accented crab and “royal court composer” who writes and performs music for the King and his seven daughters. Sebastian is sent to follow the kings daughter Ariel and alerts Prince Eric to her whereabouts so he can win her affections. It is Sebastian who is the key character at many points of the story in helping out the human and Mermaid/Merman characters to win and defeat the evil sea witch Ursula, at the very end helping Ariel and Prince Eric defeat her in the final battle. There have been modern interpretations of Sebastian as being a racist character due to his Jamaican accent and song about not working and just playing music, which some find racially insensitive to African Americans. Whatever you thoughts on it, Sebastian is a great character that kids and adults love, some saying that he really makes the film “The Little Mermaid” as successful as it is.

Mermaid Ariel
Why isn't Ursula The Sea Witch In The Little Mermaid Ariel's Beginning?

They didn't want her in it, it's that simple I guess. Plus if she had an interaction with Ariel at some point in Ariel's life before the film The Little Mermaid (original) , Ariel would have been less likely to trust her in that film. So they had Marina as a villain instead.
