Stupid Evil: Difference between revisions

** It's justified, although it tends to depend on the movie. In all movies, granting somebody's wish effectively allows him to take their soul when they die (and the interpretations of these wishes usually end up with the person making the wish dead); in the third movie, it's mentioned that he needs 1000 souls before he can achieve his goal, although this detail wasn't present in the first two movies.

* [[Helena Bonham Carter]]'s version of Bellatrix Lestrange in the [[Harry Potter (film)|''Harry Potter'' movies]] borderlines on this. She's portrayed as an insane character who delights in petty acts of vandalism like shattering windows and setting houses on fire. In the books, she's described as much more serious - she's considered insane only because of the level of her devotion to Lord Voldemort.

** King Koopah's evil plan is to merge ''his'' world with ''ours'' so he could conquer it. Assuming this didn't cause ''two'' [[Earthshattering Kaboom]]s, ''his'' world has only one settlement, Dinohattan, meaning he'd be facing off against multiple armies with his limited forces. This includes the police of Dinohattan, who are overworked, understaffed, and incompetent; Koopa's enforcers, the woefully stupid Goombahs which were ''purposely'' made so via devolution; and his cousins Iggy and Spike, whom he trust to get the [[MacGuffin]] he needs ''after'' the two morons kidnap the wrong girl ''five times'' before managing to grab Daisy.

** Also, Koopa is rather careless for a totalitarian ruler, seeing as ''every'' citizen is armed and weapons are lying around everywhere, just waiting to be picked up. Half of the movie is one big case of [[Boss Arena Idiocy]], giving the heroes easy access to bombs, high-tech guns, and rocket shoes. [[Rule of Cool|Which, in all fairness, are kinda cool.]]
