My ex had my son so my 63 year old mom and my 30 year old ass went to see this. Theater was filled with kids and I laughed hysterically at that line which made my mom laugh at me
And an evil villain that is ACTUALLY evil, and not "morally unethical". Jack is cruel and merciless, and not someone who would do wrong things to further his goals.
I love how jack promised the serpent sisters "their weight in gold" then turned one of them into gold so Jack technically went through with his promise
Ironically that's probably one of the few times people were okay with him killing someone as the Sisters flat out said they murdered a lot of people to get the map and it's not like Jack asked them to do that.
I like to believe Jack wasn't intended to pull Midas hand on them until one of the sisters mocked his past ...Nah, he'd probably meant to do that to begin with just to pull off "weight in gold" promise in a fun way
I assumed that, while unworthy to pull the sword from the stone, he is strong enough that he used brute force to pull up the chunk of stone without even digging.
@Hozka Hilgarri It's like in the first animated Avengers movie when Hulk picked up Moljnir not because he was worthy but because he literally outmuscled the spell.
Pretty sure that's the point of the character. His entire "character arc" is that he has no character arc, because irredeemable villains aren't even characters, they're just plot devices.
Wow, what a sad life Jack had. Nothing but supportive and caring parents, a roof over his head, a stable life, and a successful baked goods enterprise for him to inherent. He’s not evil, he’s just broken. And I mean, REALLY broken in his head.
@@ForExampleJon what’s even better is that his flashback showed the exact oposite. So he’s not only openly evil but actually goes out of his way to make himself as unlikable as possible.

@@Blue-Apple-fc9eo Do you mean both the sympathetic and the classic non-sympathetic villain? Since I do like some sympathetic villains too, but I do kind of wish we had more classically evil villains like Horner these days.
But what's really funny is he seemed to have switched thumbs, because in his reminiscing, he was using his left as a kid, but he uses his right as an adult. Lol
That dude is so chad that even in his last breath he still try to make us laugh. Damn "what specifically?" He dont even know what wrong with his personality.
i think his last world are meaning that he actually did nothing bad to main hero Puss,he just wanted wishing star and did not care for Puss. Writers are making fun of rules for writing bad guy basically
What I love about his character is the fact that he doesn’t have a single reason to be a villain. No tragic backstory, no heartbreaking loss, nothing. He’s just a selfish jerk who only cares about himself. It shows how some people are just naturally rotten despite everything they have
I love to imagine he actually worked out to reach that size and stature, just huffing and puffing next to his pie conveyor belts while lifting some 60 pound dumbells in each hand 💀💀
The Ethical Bug, at least to my ears, has a really annoying voice. I’d bet that if the titular Bad Guys-namely Mr. Piranha managed to get a single wish from the Wishing Star, Piranha would more or less waste his one wish by wishing the Cricket didn’t have such an annoying voice and it got replaced by a voice that nearly everyone would want to listen to.

John Mulaney is hilarious. I watched some of his stand up and he got me laughing so hard. He was perfect for the role of Jack Horner. I agree with you.😊😊
Jack kind of represents those completely irredeemable old-school Disney villains and shows how fun they could be, he also shows how these new Disney villains don’t always have to be too sympathetic that we root for them instead.
You know how whenever antiheroes are popular for some period of time, the period immediately following that is full of media that eschews antiheroes and has protagonists that are unquestionably, dogmatically righteous and good? Jack Horner feels like that, but for antivillains, and I am totally on board for it.
Yup, totally There are great and funny concepts to explore out there Take the alternate universe for example, they're awesome... but now every movie/series out there talks about it, making it more and more cliche, boring and predictable each passing year Twist villains too, now they're the "butlers" of the murder mystery media
He isn't an antivillain though? An antivillain is a villain with some strongly moral attributes or feats though is still unrepentant. Big Jack's a classic archetype that is extremely evil, fairly competent, and enjoys being evil, considering himself above morality.
@@pubcle Yes thats the point. After antiheroes came protagonists that were unquestionably righteous and good. After antivillains we have Jack, unquestionably cruel and evil.
Honestly I'm pretty tired of the "reasonable villain" trope. I feel like disney has been pushing this trope to its limit and it honestly feels like the whole message is "It's okay to be evil, as long as you have a sad backstory!". I love Jack Horner because he is quite simply a villain, and his actions don't need to have some grand motive behind it, bros just vile.
I think my favorite thing about this guy is how expressive he is. I noticed he’s very reactive and I enjoyed that very much. Plus, him taking pride in what a horrible person he is was great. He was evil from the start, not a false ally to the protagonist like many movies have done nowadays.

3:05 Just want to mark the most tragic backstory of all backstories. Truly puts all of Disney's villains to shame with how hard Jack had it back when he was young. Like those tragic villains got it easy compared to poor Jack Horner.
Jack is proof that being self-aware that you're horrible at least counts for something. He even puts up with ethical cricket for a lot longer than I expected, and flicked him away instead of squashing him, I think because on some level he knows he's wrong and the cricket has a point.
@@janes_dick5843 The company I imagine, given that the whole point of mocking the misuse of fairy tale items is the jab. Although a comparison could be made with Walt himself. Whatever personal flaws Walt may have had, he was undeniably a good businessman. So is Jack. His baked goods empire is clearly thriving. I think Jack's whole arc is meant to portray Disney from beginning to modern day. Modern Disney is obsessed with progressive ideas like forced diversity in their movies and shows. This is apparent in the Baker's Dozen. Look at them. They're very ethnically diverse and many of them have the typical dyed hair of 'rebellious' progressives. They're loyal to Jack (Disney) to the bitter end, even as he carelessly sacrifices them. Where does their loyalty come from? Money? That can't be it. Can't spend money if you're dead. The only explanation is that it's meant to express the blind brand loyalty to Disney that its fans have. They follow him to their doom and fight to the death to protect someone who doesn't care about them at all. Even when there's only a single Baker's Dozen left at the final wishing star confrontation and she's about to die... she calls out to Jack for help. Unsurprisingly, he doesn't help her and she dies. Yet she still expected him to for some reason. Her blind faith is heartbreaking in its foolishness.
I think my favorite part about Jack is that he’s not even really mean or rude, he’s just evil Like if you do work good, and don’t get in his way, he respects you and you’re fine He’s blatantly honest with his intentions and doesn’t hide what hes super blatant with what he expects, and if you choose to work for him, it’s not really his problem
A lot of the problems with such villains is that they pretty much are written as "doing the right thing but are just too mean" (see Killmonger or Thanos) or "are attractive/quirky and had a tortured past so they pretty much get to be antiheroes or whatever" (see Loki). They're actually grey since we're suppose to see they're in the right or don't deserve condemnation.
Tbh the only SLIGHTLY good thing he did was let the Serpent Sister leave with her (probably deceased) sister without any qualms, complaints or strings attached. She asked to leave and Jack just let her
3:38 Jack Horner: wow they were bad at being bridge. That was just one tank. Could you imagine if that had been a bus, with families on it? Those jerks!
Big Jack Horner is one of the funniest characters in the whole movie and I also love how his body and hands are ginormous but his little head is so small lol
I think they made him so unapologetically evil as a response to the avalanche of surprise villains in recent kids movies. Just a good old fashioned lovable villain.
Jack was my favorite character in the film! It was so much fun seeing an unapologetic villain who just delights in how much of an evil scumbag he is. 😄
I love how you can't even pin the blame on the parents like most villains since he himself admits they were loving. This guy literally just woke up one day and chose evil
Its because he is confident, has great theme and is for the most part competent. I mean come on, calling his group of fighting cooks Bakers Dozen simply slaps. Also from what I understood, he is reasonable boss in his day to day business as long as you do not go out of your way to piss him off. You do good job for him and he will keep his part of the deal. No silly betrayals or punishments just for sake of evilness. He does not care about wellbeing of others, but does not go out of his way to make people around him misserable if they do not get in the way of his goal. Also when he is faced with challenges, he does overcome them and do so often in hilarious way, unlike some other villians who are all talk but fails at every corner when they have to step up.
@@YaMaTo999Vir Ok. Thanks. I asked you about that, because I have fear, that antagonists in modern cartoons and Animated movies will dissapear forever.
What’s sad is he never changed, never tried to be noble, or learn the true meaning of living his life. All he wanted was power. So what did he do to deserve this? Everything!!! What specifically? EVERYTHING
Honestly, I wasn’t expecting Jack to be a big character based on the trailer, but he actually became my favorite villain in the Shrek universe in just one viewing plus the little redemption arc for Goldilocks and the three Bears crime family was pretty nice
One of my favourite lines from Jack Horner is "excuse me?" in his trophy room. I don't know why, but everything about it is funny for me. From the reason why he said that to the way he did it
Yes, I love how casual he is about everything despite his over-the-top cruelty, like how he just says "that was weird" after Baby Bear pushed him or how he genuinely asks if Perrito was having a hernia.
I really love how the writers tried to emphasise the fact that he had many chances to redeem himself by letting his underlings constantly reaching out to him for help=)))) They said their line in a monotone which makes it so damn hilarious, so on the nose but very witty and clever too:))))

I like how this is just making fun of Disneys “misunderstood” villains.
I like how Jack Horner was literally just Disney. I wonder how many people actually picked up on that XD
Do you mean Walt Disney himself or the whole company?
I saw it the moment I saw him gearing up for his quest.
@@janes_dick5843 The company I imagine, given that the whole point of mocking the misuse of fairy tale items is the jab.
Although a comparison could be made with Walt himself. Whatever personal flaws Walt may have had, he was undeniably a good businessman. So is Jack. His baked goods empire is clearly thriving. I think Jack's whole arc is meant to portray Disney from beginning to modern day.
Modern Disney is obsessed with progressive ideas like forced diversity in their movies and shows. This is apparent in the Baker's Dozen. Look at them. They're very ethnically diverse and many of them have the typical dyed hair of 'rebellious' progressives. They're loyal to Jack (Disney) to the bitter end, even as he carelessly sacrifices them. Where does their loyalty come from? Money? That can't be it. Can't spend money if you're dead. The only explanation is that it's meant to express the blind brand loyalty to Disney that its fans have. They follow him to their doom and fight to the death to protect someone who doesn't care about them at all.
Even when there's only a single Baker's Dozen left at the final wishing star confrontation and she's about to die... she calls out to Jack for help. Unsurprisingly, he doesn't help her and she dies. Yet she still expected him to for some reason. Her blind faith is heartbreaking in its foolishness.

I think my favorite part about Jack is that he’s not even really mean or rude, he’s just evil
Like if you do work good, and don’t get in his way, he respects you and you’re fine
He’s blatantly honest with his intentions and doesn’t hide what hes super blatant with what he expects, and if you choose to work for him, it’s not really his problem
wait, that's true.
wow.
He used his men as a bridge and got them killed.
he disrespected his own manpower quite a bit tho 😂😂
Kinda like Elon Musk!
@@galten7361 But the next nearest bridge was two blocks away.
I love how he says “What specifically!?” like he’s trying to find out exactly what bad deed he did, and not the fact he’s done multiple bad deeds.
Jack is a gem in a sea of dime a dozen morally grey villains in recent movies and shows I’m so happy we can still have these kinds of bad guys
A lot of the problems with such villains is that they pretty much are written as "doing the right thing but are just too mean" (see Killmonger or Thanos) or "are attractive/quirky and had a tortured past so they pretty much get to be antiheroes or whatever" (see Loki). They're actually grey since we're suppose to see they're in the right or don't deserve condemnation.
@galten7361 didn't loki kill millions in new york?
Most superheroes turn evil and do heinous acts almost every other Tuesday.
@@galten7361 Killmonger didn't try to do the right thing. He wanted to commit genocide out of spite and resentment.
That "'Scuse me?" line deliver.
I love when villain say or do something very mundane or polite in a very threatening manner.
1:26 The total badassery in this throw quickly establishes how much of a threat he can be
4:31 scared the crap out of me
ikr
4:33
i know there’s SOME art out there where the growing outcome is… Different.
@@maxnolife_ does it have to do with what he said 4:36 or something worse
Discord mod jumpscare
4:47 this line cought me off guard. Hahah
Tbh the only SLIGHTLY good thing he did was let the Serpent Sister leave with her (probably deceased) sister without any qualms, complaints or strings attached. She asked to leave and Jack just let her
I mean the transaction was complete and the sisters delivered the map
He set her up to be turned into gold to begin with.
“Can I… go?”
“Pleasure doing… ehh.”
They were promised "their weight in gold".
I don't even think he intended to turn them into gold, he just showed the glove, the sister was the one who touched it
Jack Horner is just the definition of “7 foot giga chad”. i love how competent and hilariously despicable he is.
3:38
Jack Horner: wow they were bad at being bridge. That was just one tank. Could you imagine if that had been a bus, with families on it? Those jerks!
😭😭😭😭
Big Jack Horner is one of the funniest characters in the whole movie and I also love how his body and hands are ginormous but his little head is so small lol
His legs are small too.
I think they made him so unapologetically evil as a response to the avalanche of surprise villains in recent kids movies. Just a good old fashioned lovable villain.
Doing what the Shrek franchise does best since its inception, giving Disney the middle finger (or plum thumbs down, in this case)
Jacks proportions get me everytime
"You're not gonna shoot a puppy in the face, are ya??"
"Yeah, in the face. Why?"
Jimminy: “Have you considered how your actions might effect other people?”
Jack: “why would I care about other people?”
The face of jiminy cricket just kills me 😂 3:23
Jack was my favorite character in the film! It was so much fun seeing an unapologetic villain who just delights in how much of an evil scumbag he is. 😄
Freezer
4:17
Valid response.
"Don't you know I'm dead inside." LMAO
By the way, your nose is bleeding.
I love how you can't even pin the blame on the parents like most villains since he himself admits they were loving. This guy literally just woke up one day and chose evil
Bros a villain but is funny af
John Mulaney did such a good job at voicing Jack horner
He can voice K. Rool.
@@galten7361That or Giancarlo Esposito
1:52 this goes hard feel free to screenshot
Finally. a ruthless and comedic villain that Disney no longer knows how to do anymore
Bro doesn't need character growth because he's already the big man
I don’t know how dreamworks managed to make a character so evil, but also made it so that he’s actually likable and respectable (to an extent)
Its because he is confident, has great theme and is for the most part competent. I mean come on, calling his group of fighting cooks Bakers Dozen simply slaps.
Also from what I understood, he is reasonable boss in his day to day business as long as you do not go out of your way to piss him off. You do good job for him and he will keep his part of the deal. No silly betrayals or punishments just for sake of evilness. He does not care about wellbeing of others, but does not go out of his way to make people around him misserable if they do not get in the way of his goal.
Also when he is faced with challenges, he does overcome them and do so often in hilarious way, unlike some other villians who are all talk but fails at every corner when they have to step up.
It’s under appreciated how much of a banger his theme is
We NEED a Jack Horner movie
We have Harley Quinn movies, why not a Jack Horner movie.
Also Goldilocks and the 3 Bears.
It should be in the style of American Psycho
SAMEEEEE
He’s dead tho
“Don’t you know I’m dead inside”
Unironically the best line Jack could ever choose to deliver.
I like to think that Jack didn't dispatched Cricket immediately just because he wanted to destroy Cricket's hope first just for giggles
2:25 me when I bring two toothbrushes in vacation
Honestly one of the best villains
4:46 - Popular villains since 2021 be like (c)
I've got a question. It is possible to made in modern times a good cartoon tv Series with reccuring antagonists?
@@kacmac2340 Why not? You can work well even with repeating. Its all depends on skill of story-telling.
@@YaMaTo999Vir Ok. Thanks. I asked you about that, because I have fear, that antagonists in modern cartoons and Animated movies will dissapear forever.
@@kacmac2340 wdym?
@@YaMaTo999Vir Excuse me. I don't Understand.
1:33 Disney's lawyers trade marking every public domain fantasy story possible
Locust: Y-Y-You’re not gonna shoot a puppy are ya Jack?
Jack: Yeah in the face why
Puppy “hater”
0:31 ah yes he collected every youtube play button
“Your not gonna shot a puppy are you Jack?” “Yeah in the face why?” Got me dying

My bro is straight DASTARDLY. I mean pure villainous. He’s pondering that orb with an incomprehensible amount of rizz.
2:50 this entire scene was hilarious, I love this movie
What’s sad is he never changed, never tried to be noble, or learn the true meaning of living his life.
All he wanted was power.
So what did he do to deserve this?
Everything!!!
What specifically?
EVERYTHING
Honestly, I wasn’t expecting Jack to be a big character based on the trailer, but he actually became my favorite villain in the Shrek universe in just one viewing plus the little redemption arc for Goldilocks and the three Bears crime family was pretty nice
1:45 this is one of the reasons why jack horner is one of my top 5 favorite dreamworks villains
Bro shoved the magic wand to the pumpkin 💀
That’s one way to create a carriage
SAMERRRR
Is that the fairy godmothers wand from Shrek 2
Im a breathing void of ceaseless greed and gluttony, which is INTENSELY opportunistic - THICC Jack Horner
He's a child who tried to use magic to make him look like an adult and failed miserably, leaving us with the plump, baby faced *thing* we fear today.
Dreamworks's Kingpin
After seeing so many people simp for the wolf I'm so glad to see more people love Jack Horner
I think the two characters are great in their own unique ways. Don't insinuate that one is better than another.
One of my favourite lines from Jack Horner is "excuse me?" in his trophy room. I don't know why, but everything about it is funny for me. From the reason why he said that to the way he did it
Yes, I love how casual he is about everything despite his over-the-top cruelty, like how he just says "that was weird" after Baby Bear pushed him or how he genuinely asks if Perrito was having a hernia.
The crickets face in the reflection of the ball 😂
I really love how the writers tried to emphasise the fact that he had many chances to redeem himself by letting his underlings constantly reaching out to him for help=)))) They said their line in a monotone which makes it so damn hilarious, so on the nose but very witty and clever too:))))
