I hate when characters I like are portrayed incorrectly. Especially when the poor portrayal is yet another way for companies to make money.
On a side note, and not many people have done this, but I hate when people talk about Ursula's "Vanessa form" as though it's an alterego of hers. It isn't. She only created Vanessa to manipulate Eric and keep him from falling in love with Ariel. She can take on any form, not just "Vanessa."
I have a nickname for Maleficent, but I think it degrades her character, so you'll have to find a shortened version yourself. I already think "Mozy" and "Jaffy" degrade the characters. Sorry.
Not sure if I knew what Maleficent meant or not, but it doesn't surprise me. I wonder if Ursula has a special meaning. I think I'll find a place to look it up.

I have no experience with TLM fandom at all; what do people say about her "Vanessa form"?

I've just heard people refer to that form as if it's like Superman to her Clark Kent, or something like that. (Maybe that's the other way around.)

I picked Maleficent hands down. I just love the way she talks!  Then again everytime I think of Maleficent I think of Morticia (from the Addam's Family) and yeah big fan of those two but Ursala's song pwns! Oh, and Maleficent's weird sense of humor...I mean come on! She decides to kill a newborn baby just cause she wasn't invited to her b-day!? And the taunting of the Prince!  Awesome! |

Gah... all this time and I'm still undecided...
Maybe I'll go with Maleficent... she's the more Vincent Price-like figure of the pair. 
*Votes*
Okay, that's over with.

My vote is on Maleficent, she's got class!
And Lord Mozenrath, it's nice to see another Mozenrath fan here

He hasn't been here for a while. ^^; It feels so weird to me that there aren't that many active Mozenrath fans anymore; there were at least two times in the history of the fandom when the only active Aladdin communities were Mozenrath forums...

*sigh* It seems that I "discovered" Mozenrath when most of the fangirls already had moved on 
Still, he's my favourite cartoon guy after Kuzco :p

Mozenrath is a pretty entertaining villain, but he's definitely filed under my book as Not That Attractive. He acts too much like an impulsive, undisciplined child. Also, he can't be that intelligent if it takes him until near the end of an episode to figure out something that was blatantly obvious to me after after a few minutes. (EG, the Hand of Shumash. I'd figured that out long before we were treated to Aladdin's aerial POV.)

Ditto. I started as a fangirl when the series first aired. Now, I've matured and he now seems like a whiny brat. And that makes him an even better foil to Aladdin.

Not to mention that he varies a lot depending on which studio is doing the animation.

It's a pity the Australians didn't animate any of his episodes. I think their work is always livelier and more expressive than anyone else's. Their Mechanikles was just gorgeous.

I enjoy the Japanese "Body Language". I don't know which version it's from, but it was pretty intense. As is Emily Skinner's version of it on the Little Mermaid Broadway Demo.
I voted for Maleficent. Ursula's certainly in my top 5, but Maleficent has always been my favorite Disney villain. She's made of awesome, you know.
