Sleeping Beauty : Fairy my a**! She was the devil!

Fairy my a**! She was the devil!

Yes I am aware that way before the animated movie got made, she was inspired by a tale of a fairy who put a child to sleep. But in the old tales there was no maleficent! Maleficent was an original character they created because a fairy wouldn't be intimidating enough as a villain. Marc Davis designed her to be the devil/sorceres/witch.. She called for all the powers of hell! What more proof of people need? She also called herself mistress of all evil, wore horns and turned herself into a dragon. Maleficent was a demonic creature, no doubt.

Sad that the b*th Linda woolverton and Angelina had to make a new version and label her as a fairy because now everyone thinks that the animated maleficent was a fairy too and she wasn't. Those men-hating women ruined maleficent's reputation and legacy (as well as the other characters). Now it says fairy in the cartoon's bio all over Google, Wikipedia.... Disney had more guts back in the days. Why are they sugarcoating everything now? Next they're going to change the devil from fantasia into a fairy too lol

Re: Fairy my a**! She was the devil!

I think in the original fairy tale she is a fairy. The King and Queen have a party and all of the other faeries are in attendance, except for her. She feels snubbed because she is the only fairy who isn't invited, so she curses the baby Princess. It sounds like something a fairy a would do.

I do agree however, that the recent movie really made Maleficent too soft. I love the character because she is bad ass, not because she is vulnerable and innocent.

Angelina doesn't hate men.

She may be a fairy, just not the small, bug-winged sort that everyone thinks of. Those are pixies, and that's what the Three Good Fairies are. In mythical literature, fairies come in several different forms, and Maleficent's particular breed is one that is human-sized, and draw their magic from dark forces, even Hell itself.

The only thing Disney has ever had the "guts" to do is plagiarize old European fairytales for their own monetary gain.

Oh give that BS a rest. He never claimed to have written or owned the stories.

Re: Fairy my a**! She was the devil!

But did they give credit where credit was due ?

They do now,since anyone they would have to pay royalties to are long dead.

Re: Fairy my a**! She was the devil!

I actually agree with you OP. If you ask me, Maleficent struck me as a Satanic figure.

Dial it back, people. There are fairies, and then there are fairies. One obvious example, on True Blood, there were pretty fairies flitting around looking pretty as a picture. They appeared that way to humans, their REAL forms were pretty grotesque. The Lord of the Rings, the Elves were tall elegant blond super-beings. In the book, anyway, the Orcs were a depraved, deformed version of Elves. (don't ask how or why, that's what it said). Fairy, or Fae, takes many forms.

Re: Fairy my a**! She was the devil!

I agree. Maleficent's appearance has always conjured up images of the Devil for me.

Re: Fairy my a**! She was the devil!

What sowed it up for me was when the fairies took Aurora back to the castle and Malificent appeared in the fire place, I thought that was the most evil scene of all. This scene next to the one when she turns into a dragon. .

Re: Fairy my a**! She was the devil!

Maleficent is a fairy. Im sorry to say Maleficent is more fairy than Tinkerbell.She sticks to tradition she is an unseelie court fairy the godmothers were seelie court but still dangerous. In folklore fairies were not these cute lil women with wings; many were very grostesque looking and would harm anyone who disobeyed or offended them. People feared them and would not even speak of their names and leave bread and milk out for them. The people who did not leave food out for them the fairies suck their blood at night. The vampire myth basically comes from that not too much Vlad the impaler. Also Sleeping beauty is a pagan she is not Christian it was based off a french tale with the same elements before the Grimm brother compiled them all together. Fairies dont go to christenings because they are not Christian and have aversions to religious elements. Yeah even her godmothers are not benign. Dont let their glittery persona fool ya that is fairy glamour
