Sinister Scimitar: Difference between revisions

* In ''[[Aladdin (Disney film)|Aladdin]]'' the guards chasing the titular hero wield scimitars.

* [[Looney Tunes|Hassan]], the huge arab guard who appears in some shorts and wields a massive scimitar.

* The wicked Jack-In-the-Box in ''Fantasia2000'' wields a scimitar against the Tin Soldier. Ironically, because of the curved blade itself he ends up slipping and [[Disney Villain Death|falling into]] [[Kill It with Fire|a hot stove head-first]].

 

* Averted and played straight in ''[[The Dark Elf Trilogy]]'' and the rest of ''[[The Legend of Drizzt]]''. Drizzt Do'Urden (a dark elf but one of the most morally upright characters in whole series) wields [[Dual-Wielding|twin scimitars]], but so do some of the [[Always Chaotic Evil|other drow.]] Note however that in contrast to the typical drow, [[Defector From Decadence|Zaknafein]] used straight blades.

* In the ''[[Discworld]]'' novel ''[[Discworld/Moving Pictures|Moving Pictures]]'', Victor uses a scimitar in the click ''Sons of the Dessert''. He's not impressed.

'''[[Dirty Old Woman|Mrs Cosmopolite]]''': Perhaps they start out straight and get bendy with use. A lot of things do. }}
