Top 5 Disney Characters I Want To Go Into Battle With

The other night, I got a chance to check out the newest Disney animated movie, Frozen. It was actually a really great movie with a nice little twist at the end that I am sure you won't see coming. The music was also very enjoyable. Without giving too much away, one of the main characters, Elsa, has the power to summon ice out of her hands and create whatever she wants. At one point she builds a massive ice palace in seconds complete with a pretty sweet chandelier. My roommate Dan then mentions, "Is this one of the most powerful Disney characters of all time?" This immediately got me thinking, who could possibly beat her? Then, the gears in my head really started turning...

So here it is, the list of my Top 5 Disney Characters I Want To Go Into Battle With.

Basic perimeters here. Let's imagine there will be some type of sea and land fighting, mostly focused on land though. Also, all characters will strictly come from animated movies only. I can't have a team of myself and 5 other Benjamin Gates' running around. Total slaughter-fest.

My girlfriend said I couldn't sneak a picture of Nic Cage in here. Yeah, ok. 

No particular order.

1. Elsa

Total Ice Queen

As I mentioned before. She can literally conjure ice out of no where. Totally unstoppable. Shocking good looks. I don't want to give too much away incase you haven't seen the movie, but I am telling you right now that she may be the most powerful Disney characters of all time.

2. Hercules 

Power Pose. Nailed it. 

Not even a question here. Hercules is a Demi God. Incredibly powerful. He was in a full sprint with a bushel of hay, a horse and his adoptive father on his back on his way into town when he was a teenager. He slays literally every single monster that Hades can throw at him and he barely breaks a sweat. Only weakness, his legs are a little weak for Meg but if we are heading into battle, you can't tell me why you don't want Hercules on your team 10 times out of 10. 

3. Mulans Dad, Fa Mulan, In His Prime

"I wish I had a son"

I'm sure everyone will want to jump at my throat here. Here's the deal with Fa Mulan. This dude has seen it all. Insane amount of experience and brings plenty of leadership to the table. Do you see how he basically has to walk with a cane the entire movie and then when his name is called for the draft he just hands the cane to his wife and struts over to receive his orders like a grown man. Total boss and will have no trouble putting our entire team on his back if he has to. NOW, imagine him in his prime. Total beast. I bet he had killed thousands before his daughter was even born. 

4. Captain James Bartholomew Hook

Salvador Dali?

I mentioned earlier that there would be some type of sea battle. Who better to command my fake armada than Captain Hook? Captain Hook's biggest flaw is Mr. Smee. That bumbling fool has spent his entire life riding the coat tails of the Captain and has done nothing but slow him down. Well guess what? He is going to walk the plank and now I have on of the most powerful boat Captains in the history of animated cinema commanding my fleet. He can't be touched. 

5. Rafiki

"Simbaaaa"

Chief Medical Staff. He can assist on the battlefield better than anyone else available. He also has a pretty decent amount of combat experience. I don't see a problem with having Rafiki on my front line at all. Takes on a pack of hyenas with ease and can entertain everyone with his crazy philosophy when we are all gathered around the camp fire. He is also a total wildcard.

So there are my top 5 fellow soldiers. Here are my honorable mentions who almost made the starting team and why.

Honorable Mentions

Maleficent 

Khalesi, calm down

"Dave, she can be a dragon. Where can you go wrong?" She's a super evil dragon and I can't have that on my starting 5. Totally scary and could turn on my team at any point. 

King Triton

"What do you mean the Genie has the same bracelets as me?"

This dude basically commands the sea, but since that is really all he can do, there isn't much he brings to the table as far as land battles are concerned. Shame, because him and Captain Hook would be unstoppable duo.

Gaston 

"These guys could be hotter"

Gaston would be a pretty decent pick. Total mans man. Everyone wants to be him and he can cut down trees with ease. Except he can't even read. Can't have that on the team. I can already tell there would be a constant power struggle on our team and I know Gaston would not be a team player. 

Army Guys from Toy Story

"....."

I really wanted to put these guys on the starting 5. I really did. They would be great for any type of recon. Parachute behind enemy lines and get me everything I need to know. The only thing stopping me from putting them on my squad is that they can't really help me in battle at all. Period. Too small and their weapons aren't even real. Also, their radios are just short range baby monitors. Not to good for any type of field work. 

Fix it Felix

I can fix it!

If not for Rafiki, Fix it Felix would be on the starting 5. Can heal my men and equipment up and down the battle field. Big problem though, I don't think he does any fighting. I can't have him running around fixing the enemy by accident. 

So there you have it. My Top 5 Disney Characters I Want To Go Into Battle With. No one can touch us. We go into battle, get your pop corn ready!

If anyone has any ideas for a better 5 please let me know! I would love to start a discussion about it. Let me know ya thoughts!
