Character Role Analysis

Jafar

Jafar is the first main character we meet and, right away, we hate the guy. We're talking flames-coming-out-of-the-side-of-our-heads type loathing. Occasionally, villains will get some kind of backstory that gives you some sympathy for why they're so darn wicked. Not Jafar. Nope. He's so horrifically and irredeemably awful that everyone should be clapping by the time he gets sucked into that lamp. Good riddance.
