Line 24:
== Film -- Animated ==
* Foxy Loxy from ''[[Chicken Little]]'' picks on the titular character with Goosey Loosey as support.
* Minku gets bullied by a [[Gang of Bullies]] at school in ''[[The Return of Hanuman]]''.
* Sykes, Ernie and Bernie from ''[[Shark Tale]]''
* King Malbert and his royal guards in ''[[Igor]]''
Line 33:
* In ''[[The Forbidden Kingdom]]'', the protagonist gets harassed and almost killed by a bully with a gun. Even the bully’s cronies are a bit apprehensive about this.
* The Cobras from ''[[The Karate Kid]]''.
** Similarly, the posse of kung-fu students from the [[The Karate Kid|2010 remake]], who were members of the Fighting Dragons. Mr. Han (Jackie Chan's character) specifically comments to their ''sensei'' that fighting someone one-on-one is at least fair, bully or not, but being ganged up on -- sixon—six against one, in this case -- iscase—is "too much to ask of anyone."
* The bully in ''[[Three Ninjas]]'' was followed around by lackeys.
* ''[[Mean Girls]]'': Though the titular clique is lead by [[Alpha Bitch]] Regina, as the movie shows, she would not be able to terrorize the student population without her faithful "army of skanks".
Line 42:
== Literature ==
* Dudley's gang as well as Draco, Crabbe, and Goyle in the various [[Harry Potter]] books.
** Dudley is [[Large and In Charge]] of his gang and beats people up personally, and at least one of his friends that we know of is a scrawny little kid who presumably hangs around him for protection -- itprotection—it's mentioned that he holds people while Dudley hits them. Meanwhile, Draco is a not-particularly-physically-imposing [[Manipulative Bastard]] and Crabbe and Goyle are the big, stupid thugs who cling to him for status.
** Tom Riddle's own school-years gang would seem to follow this pattern except for the fact that Tom gets away with appearing like the model student-- hestudent—he lets his minions do much of the dirty work, just as he does as Lord Voldemort.
** James, Remus, Sirius, and Wormtail, in regards to Snape. Though Wormtail, being the [[Dirty Coward]] that he is, he only does so just so that he won't have his ass kicked, as well.
* ''[[Let the Right One In]]'' features a group of bullies who pick on the main character.
