Rank 90s Disney Villains

About this poll

The most iconic villain from the Disney Renaissance era? Movie rankings cut across taste, era, and the specific moments films arrive in our lives. A ranking that puts the same film in S tier this year and B tier next year isn't fickle — it's responsive to where the watcher is standing. The lineup includes Scar, Jafar, Hades, Ursula, and 20 more.

Why the question is worth voting on

Ranking a body of work means deciding what you weight: writing, visuals, scope, replayability, cultural footprint. Different criteria produce different tier lists, and the disagreements are where the conversation lives. Your tier list is a position you'd defend; the consensus is what the audience as a whole thinks; comparing them is the point.

How voting works

This is a tier-list poll. You'll see each option one at a time and decide whether it goes in S, A, B, C, D, or F tier. S is reserved for genuine peaks — items that clearly stand above the rest. F is for the ones you'd actually call bad. The middle tiers are for everything else, and the cluster sizes don't have to be equal.

Where the consensus stands

This poll is fresh — your vote is among the first. Be early. The first 100 voters disproportionately shape the consensus, because each new vote becomes a smaller fraction of the total. Lock in your tier list and check back later to see how the aggregate shifts as more people weigh in.

A note on methodology

Hot Ranking uses an anonymous browser fingerprint to ensure each browser votes once per poll. We don't store accounts or personal information; the aggregate you see is the unweighted result of every legitimate vote, with rate limiting in place to filter automated submissions. Results update in real time once you submit. You can read more about how voting works in our About page, and how we handle data in our Privacy Policy.
