Would they eat the apple?
After an incredibly delicious (if early) Thanksgiving dinner, Da Cuz was driving me home from her place (yay for car troubles), and the conversation somehow turned to Disney villains, and how the Evil Queen seemed to have no real name, and that she must get a lot of guff when she's introduced at Disney Villain Conventions ("'The' Queen, huh? Queen of what?", "Sorry, sir, the Freddie Mercury fan club is meeting down the hall", etc.), but that she'd get even by posing as catering and giving out poison apples to everyone.
This, naturally, led to a discussion of which Disney villains would actually eat the apple.
Ursula would not eat the apple, because she recognizes magic.
Ditto for Jafar.
Prince John would definitely eat the apple, right over Sir Hiss's objections.
Madam Medusa wouldn't hesitate (she looks thin and hungry).
Commander Lyle Tiberius Rourke would eat the apple as a matter of protocol, but only if it weren't brought over by the cackling Queen herself.
Cruella DeVille would eat the apple if someone told her it was made of dog and painted it with black and white spots.
Scar and Shere Khan don't eat fruit.
Judge Claude Frollo wouldn't eat the apple, but he would also prevent any poor starving gypsies from eating it.
Percival C. McLeach would eat it if he were convinced that it had been taken from an endangered species who desperately needed it for survival.
Oogie Boogie would eat the apple, and then complain that there's not enough poison in it.
Gaston would start to eat the apple, but first he'd pause and admire his own reflection in the apple's shiny surface, and he might notice the other villains dropping in time.
Maleficent would not be offered an apple, because the Queen knows Maleficent would set her on fire.
Long John Silver wouldn't be invited to the party, because he helped Jim and lost his villain cred.
Monstro wouldn't fit through the door, and the apple wouldn't bother him either way.
These are the conversations we have in the car. :)
