Fun fact: The colors of Maleficent’s outfit were supposed to be black and red instead of black and purple.

In the House of Mouse series, she’s apparently the HBIC of the villains.
I like to think that during the production of House of Mouse there were two team members constantly arguing about which Disney villain Maleficent should end up with
How/why is House of Mouse still not on Disney+???
In a far away land, long ago, lived a king and his fair queen. Many years had they longed for a child and finally their wish was granted. A beautiful princess was born, a princess destined by a terrible curse.
Once Upon A Time […] all their happy endings were stolen.
Poor Maleficent. She just wants to be included.
Stories from the cast and crew who worked with ELEANOR AUDLEY, the original voice, physical inspiration, and one of the live action reference models for MALEFICENT. Mary Costa, the voice of the Princess Aurora, also recounted: “I got to be such friends with the godmothers and Maleficent. And the Prince. They all had such a funny sense of humor. We all loved to hear Maleficent record because she wasn’t that tall, but when she was using that voice in front of a microphone it was like nine feet tall.”
I really felt quite distressed at not receiving an invitation.
In medieval culture, an event like a royal christening is not a private party; it’s the public social event of the year. To not invite any person of rank to such an event is a deadly insult.
Maleficent is certainly someone you wouldn’t want at a party, but she’s also someone powerful enough that only a fool would ever dare treat her with such blatant disrespect. The only way the King and Queen could possibly have gotten away with not inviting Maleficent was to not invite any of the fairies at all; inviting the other fairies and excluding her is explicitly taking sides in the conflict between the fairy factions.
Which means they made themselves her sworn enemies, and she responded by treating them as such from then on. If you actually get into analyzing the social dynamics of the scene, it’s very clear that Maleficent was willing to show mercy at first by giving the King and Queen a chance to apologize for their disrespect to her. She doesn’t curse Aurora until after she gives them that chance and they throw it back in her face with further disrespect.
And yeah, if the King and Queen had done the properly respectful thing and invited her, Maleficent would have given Aurora a scary awesome present. Moreover so would the other fairies, because at that point both sides would be using it as an opportunity to show off and one-up each other. What they gave her before Maleficent showed up was basically just trivial party favors by fairy standards.
It's hilarious that the OP put Merryweather in pink

Randomly, I just wanted to make a geekish Disney parallel post about the Maleficent quote in Isle of the Lost, by Melissa de la Cruz. I was thinking about Maleficent not being invited to Aurora's christening. It's kind of funny when you think about it, because Maleficent is a crazy bitch who took out her wrath on the King and Queen because she was not invited to an infant's birthday party. Looking through my old tumblr I found this post, and I remembered that this was more than a little slight. Maleficent, probably more powerful than the three good fairies combined, was someone you really wouldn't want to piss off.
It also didn't make sense how she was defeated so easily. Flora enchanted a sword and slayed the dragon, and that was all it took. It didn't make sense especially as the fairies said that their magic wasn't powerful enough to undo Maleficent's curse. Even though her death was anticlimatic, she was and still is, one of the most awesome Disney villains to date.
