"Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned."

If you haven’t seen the 2014 live action story of this villain, you should definitely watch it. Basically, the movie circles on the story of Maleficent, why she cursed Aurora, and so on. The Moors was the fairy kingdom, and the other was ruled by humans. Long story short, her boyfriend, Stephan, cut off her wings while she was sleeping and brought them to his dying king in order to be his successor. He then married the king’s daughter, and they eventually had a baby, which they named Aurora. Maleficent shows up to the christening to curse baby Aurora to punish Stephan, saying that the only way to awaken her from her everlasting sleep is with "true love's kiss". Maleficent realizes that she wants to revoke the curse, but it is too strong. Then there is a show down the night that Aurora pricks her finger on the spinning wheel and falls asleep forever.

1. Angelina Jolie was amazing.

Casting her as this villain was a genius move on Disney's part.

2. She taught us that true love is a real thing, and it doesn't require boys to save us.

The whole reason that she cursed Aurora the way she did was because she didn't think that such a thing as "true love's kiss" existed. But when she starts to love Aurora, and eventually kisses her goodbye, she wakes her up. Maleficent shows us that true love isn't limited in a romantic way, and that sometimes all you need is family.

3. She has one of the greatest monologues ever.

I've memorized every word of this scene because it's that great.

4. She was a sassy brat at all times.

Everything she said to the king was either rude or sarcastic, and it was great. She acts exactly like any girl would to an ex-boyfriend.

5. She has the best cheek bones of all villains.

That definition is glorious, Maleficent.

6. She never stopped protecting her kingdom.

Even though she has a forest full of enchanted creatures to help her, she did a pretty good job all on her own.

7. She humiliated a king.

she told a king to shut up and beg to her in a castle full of subjects.

8. She has a back story.

Not a lot of villains have a movie all to themselves explaining their motives, but she had some pretty good reasons. Having your boyfriend slip sleep medicine into your drink to cut off your wings while you're passed out will do that to a person.

9. She's great at holding grudges.

She watched and made sure Aurora didn’t die in any other way than the way she planned. She even had to intervene a few times to ensure she lived to see 16, since the three faires in charge of raising her weren't very good at it, she was still wildly devoted to her personal vendetta.

10. She wasn’t COMPLETELY evil, just extremely pissed off.

Wouldn’t you be if your boyfriend cut off your wings just to further his career? But hey, she did redeem herself in the end. No more evil lime green evil curses from her!
