User blog:Itay66647/Pure Evil Proposal: Man (Bambi)

This proposal is about the poacher called "Man" from the 1942 Disney film Bambi and its 2006 midquel.

Who Is He?/What Has He Done?
Man is the unseen main antagonist of Bambi. He is a hunter and poacher whose goal is to hunt every animal in the forest where Bambi and his friends live.

Heinous Standard
While it can be argued whether or not he holds any true evil intent, like most other Disney villains, it is noted that Man had no qualms with killing a doe with her fawn. This further hints that he was more of a poacher than a hunter, as it is illegal to shoot does or fawns in many parts of the United States. Also, in Bambi II, he had no guilt about trying to kill Bambi, who at the time was still a fawn.

Freudian Excuse
None known, as he is not even seen onscreen in any of the films.

Individual Capability
He is a hunter and a poacher, and successfully hunted down Bambi's mother, killing her. He also used his deer call to lure Bambi to his death in the sequel, only for the latter to be warned.

Redeeming Qualities
None.

No Sympathy
None.

Worst
He (and presumably other hunters) started a massive forest fire, which could have killed the animals. Also, he literally hunted (and probably murdered) Bambi's mother offscreen, as revealed by The Great Prince of the Forest, who tells Bambi that his mother will never return (most likely meaning that she has died).

Verdict
He is purely evil. He is not a sympathetic character, and the fact that he is not seen at all supports this. Also, he has no remorse about trying to kill Bambi as a fawn, and has no consideration to the forest animals.
