The Villain is NOT King Magnifico in Disney's WISH...

  • Disney's new movie "Wish" seems quite interesting. However, upon re-watching the trailers more closely, it appears that The King Magnifico might not be the villain he's made out to be. Asha is clearly unhappy that The King doesn't fulfill all the villagers' wishes, and he openly acknowledges this. In response, Asha attempts to make a wish upon a star herself. Nevertheless, it's not entirely clear if The King is in the wrong for not granting every wish. The direction of the story will likely depend on his underlying reasons for this. We're curious to see how the plot unfolds and would love to hear your thoughts on it.

      They actually explore this a bit in The Adventure Zone. Spoiler Warning: There are magic relics in their world that the Bureau of Balance collects because of how destructive they are. One of the relics grants wishes. The Bureau managed to retrieve it, but they did so too late. By the time they found it, a child had found it first. The child's wish turned their entire city into peppermint candy. The streets, the buildings, and the people. Everyone in the city died in an instant.
      So, yeah, this king not wanting to grant every wish definitely doesn't make him a villain...

    I just watched the movie and honestly the King was not as bad as they tried to paint him. He came from a place that was terrible and violent. He created a kingdom and invited people to join him. He literally created a happy and peaceful place for people. He protected and provided for them. The bad thing was that he didnt fulfill everyones wish because he felt that granting some wishes could be dangerous. HE JUST WANTED TO PROTECT HIS PEOPLE. Now he eventually went crazy because of his paranoia i wont spoil anything but they wronged him in my opinion.

      One singular person having control over EVERYONES hopes and desires, is not normal. Magnifico wanted the control. whenever anyone gives valid questions on his system he goes insane. "what if our wish changes?" "why not just give the wishes back to those you know you wont grant?' are all really great questions, but he goes into a spiral about how these concerns are disrespectful and unappreciative....what? These people are willingly giving you a core part of their unique self, and the thought of them having some worries and concerns over it offends you? He has himself convinced hes a great king, but a king who will take away the hopes and desires of people and go crazy the moment someone ligly disagrees with him is NOT a good king. its not suprising he turned to forbidden magic.

      You should listen to "This is the thanks I get" a little closer, or look at the lyrics. He's openly admitting that the resources he uses to help people aren't coming from him, but from other people in the kingdom. Their reward is just existing in his presence and within his kingdom. He's a narcissist with a savior/hero complex. As they say, the road to hell is paved with good intentions. He may have meant well in the creation of this system and in his kingdom, but he also (perhaps unintentionally) made his citizens a slave to the hope that their wishes would be granted. Worst yet, they didn't get to experience the journey of worrying towards that wish. He consistently refuses to acknowledge the mistakes he made and refuses to take accountability, furthering the suffering of his people. He allows his ego to take control, which ends up making him the rightful villain here.

Like, why grant a singular wish every year and not continuously grant good wishes as time goes by. The kingdom was literally full of hundreds of wishes, and I doubt more than half of them were that bad as he might’ve thought they were. Honestly, I don’t really get the point of the movie.

      I mean it does make sense though. Not everyone's wishes are going to be selfless and wholesome so there has to be a review process. Sure 12 a year isn't a lot but how do you even determine the best wish to grant in the first place? You have to consider the long term ramifications of granting said wish.

      No!!! No no no! That is absolutely not what happens in the movie!
      Ok, let me break it down: So in Rosas the King has everyone on the kingdom on their 18th birthday give their wishes to him. In the film, wishes arent just something you want, its a part of you. Your dreams, your goals, your aspirations. When the people give up their wishes, they became apathetic, tired, and disireless (as examplified by one of Asha's friends). During a song number we see a bunch of the people's wishes, from a woman who wants to sail to a man who wants a family. When Asha tries asking why the King doesn't bestow upon the people their wishes, he says that they could threten the kingdom- with an example of an old man just wanting to be able to make a song that inspires others. Knowing that the King has a point to not grant every wish as some could be dangerous, she asks if he could return the wishes of those that are innocent to the people so they could have that part of their being returned and go out to make their wishes come true on their own. However, the King reveals his true colors and a villain who is hording the wishes so he can remain in power.
      I have no idea how anyone who could think after reading this or actually seeing the film could think that Asha is the villain.

      @@andrewdowns3673 what sounds like to me the people need to stop being vague about their wishes. And maybe the king might be able to Grant more of their wishes if they stopped being vague. Because there is such a thing of be careful what you wish for if people stop being vague and be more specific than maybe the king might be able to Grant more wishes.
      Like for example you want a family what kind of family do you want what kind of structure to the family do you want. Because there are multiple different kinds of families there is one father and. Two children and then there's two fathers and one child and on and on, And on and on and on what what you have to be specific.
      Or or like you said he wants to be a sailor well there are different kinds of Sailor you want to be a fisherman. An Explorer or you know you just want to sail the ship and work on someone's ship while. You steer the wheel like they're different positions on the ship what do you want. Specifically it sounds like it's not his fault it sounds like it's the people's fault. For not being specific in what they want they still have to put in the work after he gives them their wish.
      But then again you might say well as the king's fault for not telling them to be specific yeah granted I'll give you that. The only thing he is guilty of is not teaching the people to be specific. To be realistic about their wishes and what that wish entails and what they want granted that's the only thing he is guilty of.

    If we still want Magnífico to be the villain, we can have him be forced to use the dark book in order to have a fighting chance against the people and him be the final boss once the kingdom is reclaimed by him.

      ⁠@@abbeyBominable123that is so stupid. Every wish fulfillments being granted can be dangerous and cause people to take things for granted. They would be spoiled. Everybody is content with their life. A wish is a desire, not a need. If they have everything they need, they don’t need to make a wish. Haven’t you ever heard the lesson, “you can’t always get what you want, but if you try sometimes, you might find what you need.” There’s a reason for that sentence to exist. Nothing taught this lesson better than Puss in Boots and the last wish. Puss wanted immortality, but he learned to value the one life he had. Kitty soft paws wanted someone she could trust, but she did get that when Puss earned her trust. Purrito got friends like he wanted. Goldi wanted a family but she had one all along. The bears got to open a pie shop. They all got what they needed with no magic required. As for Jack Horner, he wanted all the power in the universe and become some god only to be part of the star and destroyed so that was his punishment. So I have to side with Magnifico on this one. If you write a story where you have to spoil everybody by granted every wish and even risk bad ones being granted where you have to stop them or else you’re the bad guy and have the villain make the most sense, then you have failed at making a story. It doesn’t make any sense to make magnifico the bad guy for protecting the wishes and not risking them being spoiled, or corrupted. It just seems so forced to make him the bad guy. He just comes off as an asshole about it. So what? It just sounds like the easy and laziest solution to grant every wish. And the heroine just comes off as reckless and stupid.

    I know people say Magnifico is a bad villain, and his reasons for not granting all Wishes is stupid, but he does have reason.
    The king doesn’t grant everyone’s wishes because he thinks one would be too dangerous and eventually destroy everything he built just like with his childhood town. A bad person destroyed Magnificos home and possibly killed many people, probably even his parents, so he doesn’t want to grant everyone’s Wishes because he doesn’t want to go through that trauma again. Both Asha and Magnifico have good reasons on different sides, that’s why I’m saying this on RUclips.

Maginfico's idea of not granting every wish because some could be dangerous is good, HOWEVER, after watching the trailer I realized he's not doing it to protect the kingdom, he's doing it to protect his power. This is also seen in the movie and he makes reference to it in his songs. King Magnifco disguises his "selfish intentions" with a good idea. This is what makes him a good villian in my opinion, the fact that he is able to manipulate people and get them all to believe what he's doing is good. However, I have another theory that when he started out as king he didn't grant certain wishes because he truly wanted to protect the kingdom, but then the power of him being able to control these wishes got to his head and caused him to develop dark intentions

Look at Asha’s friend after he gives up his wish on his 18th birthday!! Look at her grandpa!!! She wants them to decide for themselves what they do with their lives vs. the King deciding who deserves to pursue and realize their dreams. He’s a tyrant, and a narcissist who showed his true colors and threw a tantrum the MINUTE things weren’t going his way. Asha wants them to be free. How is that so hard to understand?

Yes kuzco was raised that way and he was young, but my point still stands.

      Either way his morals are messed up. He claims he keeps the wishes “to keep them safe”, even when he sees that taking the wishes and making people forget them takes away their passion and wants in life. So someone who’s passions is art, would forget that they enjoyed the art in the first place

    He really isn't the villain (even though the plot says he is).
    While Maginifico is arrogant and thinks he deserves more credit/praise for what he's done, he's ruled his kingdom the way he has for who knows how long, his people are happy/thriving and they have nothing but love/respect for their king and queen.
    Then Asha comes in, is upset about how he runs things and tries to tell him how to do his job better (which clearly pisses him off, understandably so) and when ratting him out to her family amounts to nothing, Asha wishes on a star to help her save Rosa's from impending doom (an impending doom that Asha herself caused by making that wish on a star; as it's the star arrival on the island and the magic it's doing that causes Magnifico to panic and use the cursed book that ends up corrupting him/making him the threat that Asha assumed him to be).
    So, yeah - the the movie doesn't intend it to be so, Asha is the true villain (and so is the Queen for how quickly she turned traitor on her husband instead of informing the people of her kingdom that he was corrupted by that magic book and doing nothing to try and help him).

      You should listen to "This is the thanks I get" a little closer, or look at the lyrics. He's openly admitting that the resources he uses to help people aren't coming from him, but from other people in the kingdom. Their reward is just existing in his presence and within his kingdom. He's a narcissist with a savior/hero complex. As they say, the road to hell is paved with good intentions. He may have meant well in the creation of this system and in his kingdom, but he also (perhaps unintentionally) made his citizens a slave to the hope that their wishes would be granted. Worst yet, they didn't get to experience the journey of working towards that wish. He consistently refuses to acknowledge the mistakes he made and refuses to take accountability, furthering the suffering of his people. He allows his ego to take control, which ends up making him the rightful villain here.

The king's logic is still flawed and can be the villain I'm fine with that. But in a twisted way, he teaches her sometimes some wishes can't come true whether it brings tragic or doom to others.
    Asha still is on the right to not take their wishes. I'd imagine the king would do that to explain it away and they clash once more that no one has the right to control a person's life or dreams. No human are capable of that. Only to guide and teach. Something the King may have forgotten and never learned. He only knew of thieves.

The modern sensibilities are definitely there, (especially with the songs), yet any Disney fan that has seen most of the Disney catalog from Snow White to the contemporaries; there are references and nods to enjoy besides the plot, and the entire theme of wishes coming true with every thing to debate about subsequently.

He says right there that he does so much for his people yet openly acknowledges that the things he's taking or giving weren't his to take or give in the first place. Just like the wishes.
    Asha isn't asking for all wishes to be granted, she just wants each person to be able to pursue them on their own. And also, we see the impact giving up the wish had on her friend who seemed mopey and tired, unmotivated since giving up his wish to the king. He's absolutely the villain here.

What people seem to forget is that Magnifico's main motivation was to PROTECT wishes so that people don't have to feel the crushing feeling of having your dreams die in front of you. That's why he doesn't give them back. Then, sure, it went to his head, he's a man in power, but still! He never said he would grant all wishes, he said he would protect them.

    Here's my thoughts on how Wish SHOULD BE.
    It would've been better if, while Magnifico is still a villain because he used the book out of desperation, Asha realizes that she causes all of this and especially The Queen would try to break the spell within him instead of betraying him because she knows that he's a good guy really and was just trying to keep his kingdom safe. Asha tries to then remind Magnifico about the picture of how his kingdom was a mess back then, and then Magnifico stopped for a moment and then realizes that he puts his people in jeopardy and that as he destroyed the frobidden book, the evil spirits came out of him. The Queen hugs Magnifco becuase she's glad that she has the old him. And as for Asha, she gives the Wish back to Magnifico and apologizes for the damage she caused and that she's the reason why the kingdom went downhill. Magnifico got a little angry but understands why she overreacted to him by rewminding her from earlier that she is obviously young to understand and that Asha would do anything to undo the damage such as talking chickens. She cried and then Magnifco turned everything back to where it was and in return, since Asha learned her lesson, he changes his mind and give the grandfather the wish for his music career, but however, he wants to make sure the grandfather isn't using his wish for nefarious ways and Asha's grandpa said no and that he dreamed of making music because that's his passion and then everything went happily ever after.
    In the actual movie, THEY'RE DOING EXACTLY WHAT HE FEARED!

      If he wanted to make people forget themselves in terms of having their memeories erased on what their wishes are, he could just stick to that instead of being given a moral ground when he told Asha that the grandfather could start a rebilion which was reasonable on why he didn't grant that wish because he could potentially be a threat to his kingdom, or the movie would've been better if there was a plot twist that maybe that King Magnifico was lying about invaders trying to take over the Kingdom and really, Maginifco WAS the one who took over the Kingdom by eliminating everyone in his sight to have power and take everyone's wishes away. Instead, he was written to be a sympathetic villain. He especially said when arguing to Asha "YOU HAVE COMPLETELY MISS THE POINT! The reason why everyone comes to me is because they know they can't make their own wishes come true". He said an understandable line and that it's the truth though. There are people in this world that wish for something but some don't try to achieve it and expect things to go their way. Although, in Asha's right, she was trying to give the King options but she didn't need to go aggressive with him and while King seems to have an ego, the reason he's paranoid is because he's trying to take care of his kingdom. That's why he said "I DECIDE WHAT EVERYONE DESERVES!!" Although, it was a bad crime he committed, he used the forbidden book out of desperation to keep his Kingdom safe, but however, there could've been a lesson Asha should learn about Wishes becoming bad at times and that King shouldn't become too paranoid. That would be so much better but no, They don't wanna have Asha learn anything because "GIRL POWER" and all that stupid shit. These people at Disney can't write woman, I swear. They can't write them to be human just like everyone else and are just enforcing stereotypes, and it isn't just bad writing. I know what I said and they know what they're doing. Enforcing a bad message to children that kids should get what they want. Even if it wasn't intended to be that way, that's how children are gonna act and not listen to their elders.@@wolf2966

      Everything was fine in the beginning. Everyone was at peace with King being in charge until Asha fucked it up. Why do you think she was in the Most Wanted List?@@wolf2966

      ​@@emmanuelcarter3551why do people always live in a democracy but will always try and find a way to agree with a dictator. The end of the movie shows why giving one person ultimate power over a country. Could you be happy knowing your missing out on your life goals because Mr. Biden didn't think you could achieve them on your own

    I disagree. Asha was upset that the king Held Onto the wishes to have control. He could have simply given them back for people to dream and work towards in their own but that wasn’t the point. His main objective in holding onto the wishes was so he could have control over what happened in the city. He was so traumatized by his past and losing his village that he now tries to control every part to keep it “safe.” He gets to say which dreams are worthy and which ones may possibly set in motion a rebellion of his city.

      Well…. Yeah?… if you built an entire kingdom from the ground up more prosperous than all others you’d probably want to keep and maintain it as it’s rightful leader.
      I don’t see how that’s an issue.

      Control from rebellious act and jealousy of others. If someone knows that person has got their wish and his doesn’t, wouldn’t that person rebel in the future? Not all wishes are good, some are selfish or dangerous like wanting to a person life or world domination. Will you grant a wish to hitler? As long as prosperity and peace maintain; why would a person be naive that not everyone has good intentions to a wish. Might as kept it a secret or think more about it rather than grant it instantly without thinking or perhaps it may be good at first but in the long run bad thing could happen (a good intention but bad consequences may come from you or others)

    It’s not that he won’t fulfill EVERY wish. It’s that he only fulfilled the wishes that benefited him and kept him in power.
