8 Famous Movie Villains Who Got Off Much Too Lightly

1. Lots-O'-Huggin' Bear - Toy Story 3

Lotso In Toy Story 3, Lots-O'-Huggin' Bear (or "Lotso," as he's better known) is the tyrannical dictator of a daycare centre, clinging to the painful memories of abandonment that saw him left by his kid owner and turned him into a bitter wretch. When Woody and the gang arrive at the daycare centre at the beginning of the movie, he tricks them into thinking it's a kind of paradise, only to force them live in the room designed for toddlers who have no respect for toys and smash them up and stuff. Lotso is a sick , basically. Things take a worse turn when Lotso imprisons the gang and refuses to let them escape. When they do, he tries to stop them, only for everyone to eventually to end up at a dump. When Lotso is almost killed at this point, Woody opts to save him. Then the toys realise that they're heading towards an incinerator, so they help Lotso up to the emergency stop button. Despite the fact that Woody just saved his freakin' life, Lotso runs away and leaves them all to perish in the fiery death. Luckily they manage to get away, but man, Lotso deserves to be punished. And he is. Sort of. Because the toys are of good heart and this is a Pixar movie, they just opt to let Lotso get away and forget about him. I personally would have dedicated my life to finding the so I could unleash some gruesome revenge. As he's fleeing, though, Lotso is picked up by a truck driver and attached to the front of a filthy truck with a couple of hillbilly toys. The implication is that he'll spend his days forever attached to the front of this vehicle, eating flies, but considering what he did, that's not good enough for me. I want him dead. Especially since those hillbilly toys seem so friendly. Once he gets over the fact that he's here for life, Lotso is probably going to have a great ol' time. I'm almost... jealous? Fact is, Pixar aren't exactly adverse to killing off their villains - think about poor Hopper in A Bug's Life, or Syndrome in The Incredibles - so what gives, huh? This guy tried to kill almost everyone he stumbled across: the least Pixar could have done is set him on fire in the finale or something. That would have been the right thing to do.
