Top 10 Queens in movies and TV

When you here the word Queen, your mind usually goes to real life Queens, such as Elizabeth I & II. but when you put the word fictional in front of that, you usually think of Evil & Murderous. But I can't blame you. Fictional Queens have a tendency to be evil, especially the Disney ones. But there are some good Queens out there. With the success of Elsa, people are starting to rethink what they originally thought of fictional Queens. You saw me rank the Disney Princesses, I'm going to rank the best movie ant TV queens from one to ten!

10. Ravenna (Snow White and the Huntsman)

This was one of the first Fairy tale movies that wasn't a box office flop. People mostly saw it because of the cast. Thor is the huntsman, That bitch plays Snow White, and of course, Charlize Theron's Evil Queen Ravenna. If the movie was a bit more good, Ravenna would have replaced Disney's version as the Evil Queen. But, because of the weak plot, and that drama with Bitch and the director, the movie was soon forgotten.


9. Regina (Once Upon a Time)

This one is another Snow White Evil Queen variation, but unlike Ravenna, Disney actually owns Once Upon a Time, which means they got alot of inspiration from the Disney Character. But what I like about Regina is that she isn't the stereotypical Narcissist that Ravenna was. She was a three dimensional character. She's not evil because she wants to be fairest of them all, she's evil because she lost her true love, and she blamed Snow White for his death.


8. Marie Antoinette (Marie Antoinette)

I'm not going by the real Marie Antoinette, who may or may not have been a self absorbed whore who molested her son. I'm going by the 2006 movie of the same name starring Kristen Dunst. Here, she's an Austrian princess who is taken from her home to be married to the new King,who may or may not be a Queen. At first, Marie struggles to stay with the program, finding all that Queen stuff pointless. But sooner or later, she begins to indulge herself with all the Luxury items France can offer, becoming the original material girl.


7. Padme Amidala (Star Wars 1-3)

Padme is the only Queen in this list that  was elected by her people. She's more president than Queen, but she's called Queen so she's Queen.


6. The Queen of Hearts (Alice in Wonderland)

This lady has some big issues. She decorates her wears alot of hearts, probably because she doesn't possess that Organ. She has a scary high temper, and a habit of decapitating people, And she is U-ugly!



5. Cersei Lannister (Game of Thrones)

I actually don't like Cersei, but I will put her on this list. Umm... Instead of talking about what is good about her, I'll talk about why I love to hate her. She's a bitch, she's a slut, She condones her Sociopath son's behavior, and she sleeps with her brother! Slut alert!


4. The Evil Queen (Snow White and the Seven Dwarves)

The thrid Evil Queen Character on this list, and most arguably the best. She is the original mean girl. She's beautiful, but cold hearted and obsessed with beauty. When she finds out her stepdaughter Snow White has surpassed her striking looks, she just goes "Kill the bitch!" And when that doesn't work, she turns herself into a peasant lady and poisons snow White. Total Bitch Move.


3. Jadis AKA the White Witch (Narnia series)

Elsa eat your heart out! Jadis is the original Snow Queen. Just looking at her, you get a sense of  beauty, intimidation and grace all at the same time. She has a crown of icicles growing on top her head, a long, white fur coat that can even make PETA jealous, and that ice scepter that is actually a spear that can turn you into stone. And she's quite handy with swords.


2. Galadriel (Lord of the Rings)

She is scary. Just upright scary. For a character that's supposed to be the fairy godmother type to Frodo, she sure does creep the hell out of me. But creepiness aside, Galadriel is actually a good character. she's all good, but can still be tempted by the ring at times.


1. Elsa (Frozen)

All hail,Queen Elsa! One of the Few non-evil Queen characters at Disney! And if you check out the Fairy tale Elsa was from, you'd appreciate how Disney turned an evil character into a misunderstood girl afraid of herself. And if that's not enough, she's also a very good singer, being voiced by Idina Menzel of Wicked fame. Long live good Queens!!!

Al's Top 10 TV shows.

I watch alot of TV,  and I have alot of favorites. They range from fantasy to sci-fi to competition sows to reality TV. Here are my favorites.

10. Cake Boss
The cakes Buddy makes  are so over the top and creative. My favorite one is that Bumblebee cake, Bumblebee being my favorite TransFormers. 

9. Game of Thrones
I don't know how to feel about this show. I want to love it, but at the same time, there's something very cringe worthy about this show. Oh, right. There's Incest, Murder, Torture, Rape and a bunch of Other strange crap. But there are things that are good about it. Daenerys Targaryen is a very interesting character, and  I genuinely feel sorry for Tyrion Lannister. Cersei is a bitch, but hey, what can I do about it? 

8. Friends
When I leave my Parent's house and start a life of my own, this is how I want my life to be like. Living in a big city. Hanging out with photogenic twenty-something year olds, and go through different shenanigans every episode. I tried watching How I met your Mother and Big Bang Theory, but they don't feel as genuine as friends did. They pander more to nerdy people and constantly make star wars references, which I don't get, and their too cynical compared to the very charming characters of Ross, Rachel, Chandler, Joey, Monica and Phoebe. 

7. The Voice
I love singing Competitions. I love X factor. I love American Idol. I love them all.But what I especially like about the voice is that the coaches get to pick their players just by the sound of their voices. My favorite coach on the show is Gwen Stefani, and My favorite singers are India Carney, Corey Kent White, Jessie Pitts, Luke Wade and Koryn Hawthorne.

6. Veronica Mars
I love the first two seasons, and hated the third one. That's all I have to say on the matter. 


5. Avatar: the last Airbender.
Let's clear some things out first. No, I have not Watched the Legend of Korra, No, I will not be seeing it anytime soon, and no, I don't hate the movie. I don't love it, but it doesn't bother me like most super fans. The story revolves around the Avatar, A boy who can manipulate fire, earth, water and Air. He's frozen in ice for 100 years. He's freed by two Water tribe kids, one being a water bender. All three of them set out to defeat the evil Fire Nation. They make many friends along the way, including Water tribe princess, Kyoshi Warriors, Swamp people, and even a little blind Earth bender who joins them on their Journey,  

4. Gotham
I Know it's a bit Ironic. Me, a proud Superman Fan, liking a show that's basically a prequel to Batman. But I like what I like, and there's no stopping that. The show really does a good job of establishing the Batman Character, and who will become Batman Villains. It even shows how Batman and Catwoman's romance first began.  

3. Once Upon a Time
This show is a bit corny. But if you can get passed the phony CGI and the Mandatory Disney Cameos, then you'll see a very smartly written show about Fairy Tale Characters. The show Follows Emma, A wouman who was orphaned when she was a baby, but was she really? No! It turns out her Parents are Snow White and Prince Charming. Talk about famous Parents, and they've been banished to the town of Storybrooke by the Evil Queen, so it's up to Emma, with the help of her long lost son Henry to save the cursed Fables. 


2. Spongebob Squarepants 
There were three contenders for the 2 spot. all of them are cartoons. It was either Adventure Time, Young Justice and Spongebob Squarepants. Adventure time was so close to making it, but then I realized I don't even like it that much, and Young Justice, put aside the superheroes and the fangirl hype, is just a really boring show. I've loved Spongebob since I can remember. I know all the characters, I've seen all of the episodes. I don't think there's one I haven't seen, and I have alot of Spongebob nic- nacks .


1. Pretty Little Liars
I've explained Why I love this show in a previous Post, and I don't feel like Explaining it again. Here's why I love it.
