  • This guy better be in Kingdom Hearts 3

  • The Shadow Man is probably the best Disney villain since Jafar

  • Thumbs up if the Nostalgia Critic brought you here.

  • I mean HAT

  • I hope you're satisfied

  • Notice that Lawrence's hay land on the little puppet voodoo thing and the prince gets the skull...as in...you know (draws finger across throat)

  • This song is living proof that Randy Newman is AWESOME!!!

  • 3:54-3:59 scares the living daylights out of me!!

  • I like his mask that guy has at the end

  • *Watching movie for the first time*

    Faciller:And I've got friends on the other side (Door opens)

    (He's got friends on the other side...)

    Friend: (eyes widen) HECK NO! HECK NO! I WOULD LEAVE!

    Faciller : (high fives shadow starts dancing with it)

    Friend: GETTIN' DOWN.

    Me: Th-the shadow's keeping time while he dances it does different things than he does.

    Facillier: And when I look into your future it's the green that I see.

    Me: That's not money... those are lillypads.

  • Baron Samedi would be proud

  • Kingdom hearts 3

  • Lets think of it Keith David used to play a gargoyle, who knew gargoyles could do Broadway?

  • Transmotherfuckation central

  • 1:37-1:39 Again, more folk magic elements; dolls are crucial in Louisiana Voodoo as a representation of a target, achieved by nailing personal effects of the target and body parts to the doll with needles (called 'thorns'), then invoking spirits to act on the person in a specific manner. This practice is often used for love and even in some cases for evil, though I myself question the ethics of manipulating a person in this manner, if it's possible. (cont.)

  • 1:36 Apart from stealing a bit from Peter Pan (his Shadow), many of Dr. Facilier's dance moves are lifted from Michael Jackson's routine and style (look up live performances of Billie Jean for proof!) Incidentally, his cane alludes to the phallic objects that Baron Samedi always carries around him (most famously canes), symbolizing his role as a Loa of sex as well.

  • 1:28 The shadow's transformation into a snake is interesting, as the Serpent is a symbol of enlightenment (by shedding your old self away) and intuitive connection between our consciousness and astral planes in Voodoo, and therefore perfectly assists prescience. However, it is perverted by Facilier into something treacherous, but its representation by a shadow also symbolizes its illusory nature; although he knows the future does NOT bode well for Naveen, he has no power over its course either.

  • 1:14 On the wall is another veve, which is actually that of the goddess of love, beauty and desire Erzulie Freda, an aspect of the Erzili loa. Naveen embodies her beauty-loving, fliratious, but also spoiled and lazy character. No points for guessing who represents her jealousy... however, the fact the veve is crooked could also symbolize how Facilier grants peoples desires; with a twist.

    1:17 Obvious symbolism of Facilier's true plans; he wants to be rid of Naveen, and use his lackey as a pawn.

  • 0:55 The three skulls lighting the sign may be a dark reflection of the pawnbroker's symbol. This is an ironic symbol of the Doctor's nature, as he has literally pawned his soul to his 'Friends' for powers, who now hold it as ghastly collateral.

  • Analysis of this scene:

    0:19 Dr. Facilier IS a doctor; a witch doctor. Also, note the crown and the jester's hat hidden in the logo (resembling a veve, a symbol that represents a particular spirit in Vodou). This might explain why he slipped the card back into his coat; he pulled it out upside down, revealing his intentions...

    0:45 He winces at the insult because he IS a con man- claiming extraordinary power but at the mercy of his unearthly 'creditors' (he and Naveen have much in common).

  • I love it when the villains get their own song like scar "be prepared" ursula "poor unfortunate souls" claude "hellfire"

  • @JackMLupin That's some fantastic attention to detail.

  • Seems like Ursula and Dr Facilier both tell people what they want to hear then twist them to Their own evil schemes.

  • The only part I liked of the whole movie. The rest kinda sucked

  • 2:16 me when i see something cute or sparkly xD

  • Am i the only one that thinks Prince Naveen is pretty cute:3

  • Dont trust him, you clueless prince! Your future card had u on a lilypad, Facilier said that you wanted to "hop" from place to place, AND he also said repeatedly, "Its the green I see!"

  • This reminds me of the song "poor unfortunate souls" from the little mermaid.

  • One of the best songs form Disney that's evil

  • Shit got real when he said: YESSSSSSS

  • @JackMLupin

    okay, I saw #1, but which card is the lily pad in? oh, and you have a keen eye!

  • @123skateboarder1  the last card has the lilly pad on it. at 2:47

  • Eh what's up doctor facilier

  • Hey...it's giraffe man:)

  • I always find it weird when he takes off his hat..... 0_o

  • It was from this song that I knew this would be a cool movie.

  • I just noticed two things:

    One, when he says "Things I ain't even tried!" look closely at the tapestry behind him. When any shadow moves over it, it changes from a cool design to a skull and crossbones.

    Two: if you look closely at the princes card, there is a picture of a lilypad in the background. And when he says 'it's the green that I see' I don't think he's referring to money...

  • Why do tge villains get the coolest songs?

  • Dr. Facilier's teeth make me laugh

  • best cool looking disney villian ever, he freaks me out but his seriusly awesome... i would stay far away from him but i would admire his fasion

  • So fucking AWESOME!!!!!

  • From 3:55-3:58 FREAKS ME OUT!!!!!

  • Shit got real at "ARE YA REEAADY?!?!"

  • Hell...I'd sing too if I had a shadow that was THAT badass...

  • What kind of jazz is it??? anyone knows what music genre is it??

  • @godoftherealnewworld New Orleans jazz I'd imagine.

  • @plumplilpiggy I agree, and they do that a lot. Also, in the old movies, all the villains smoked.

  • @plumplilpiggy Are you referring to the way he dresses?

  • Its you got what you wanted, but not what you need. Like in the song mama odie sings

  • My fave villain song from Disney :)

  • @TheKittyArcher It IS "but you lost what you had".

  • I love this song and the movie -3

  • Anyone else immediately think of girl puberty when he said "You're changin', you're changin',you're changin' alright?"

  • I thought it was "You got what'cha wanted, but you lost what you had!"

  • like to infinity.

    "now you got wattcha wanted, and you got wattcha get."

  • i love that last line

    " you got whattcha wanted"

    "now you got whattcha get"

  • I got voodoo

    I got voodoo

    I got things I ain't even tried!

  • If Dr. Facilier isn't in KH3 I will go to Square Enix, bust down their doors and force them to remake it with him in...

  • @karite2 I have a friend who totally agrees. Count me in too.

    I WANT HIM AS A KH BOSS!!!!!

  • Navene is hot but an idiot

  • @SecretAgentKeara Naveen is not stupid, he just is too trusting since he hasn't had to worry about scams because he never had to deal with the conciquences.

  • Traxrose@ me to love it

  • my favorite song from this film,

  • So remember kiddies, NEVER make deals with voodoo witch doctors who decorate with skulls and other miscellaneous body parts. Come on people, I thought this was basic knowlege.

  • @megadork456 But black magick is such a quick fix for everything. You just suffer a bit on the karmic side 8)

  • those cards are rigged! xD

  • This would make an awesome boss battle in Kingdom Hearts

  • he is my all time favorite villain in any media

  • best part of the movie >:D

  • Ohhhhh! Good idea! Silly price, didn't you see the 'green' was in the shape of a lilypad? XD

  • 70 thumbs up and ill b th vodo dude for hallowen!

  • am i the only o ne who thinks tha the prince's assiatant is ALOT like nathaniel from enchated?

  • His shadow scares me a little

  • 3:44 - Baron Samedi reference. That cannot be a coincidence.

  • he should have been in showbiz sigh the misguided ones

  • I like when he says 2 long lines of royalty he gets girly eyelashes lol

  • Anyone else think he would do an awesome single ladies dance?

  • BEST. VILLIAN. SONG. EVER!

  • actually shadow man is right that pthe prince's future is the green that he sees, in the end, he and tiana opens a restaurant and they made LOTS of green

  • Dr.Facilier = The most effing disney villian ever. If Disney is tyring to make me hate the villian they have just failed epicly

  • @ArmourHalloween I thought he was cool too...TILL HE KILLED RAY-MONE

  • 1 person got turned into a frog by friends on the other side for disliking the video

  • I wish he had more songs. That low voice is amazing. ^_^

  • That's an echo, gentlemen. Just a little something we got down here in louisiana- just a little parlour trick, nothin to worry about.

  • When he says friends I want to join with him

  • When he says he has friends on the other side does he mean hell?

  • @fireroxsan Not necessarily. There are a bunch of minor gods and deities and other entities that influence a lot of voodoo, hoodoo and some of Santeria as well.

  • @SubCommanderRM Oh okay thanks.

  • @potatochips512 they got inspired by a lot of michael jacksons moves

  • vvvTrans - modification- central lol but the other would be really funny lolvvv

  • 3:45 "Trans-motherfuckation Central!!"

  • My favorite Disney villain song ever

  • He's so slick lol

  • Thumb up if you have the Pom Pom Pom in your head.

  • thumbs up if you thought Doctor Facilier is the love child of Crulla De Vil and Captain Hook

  • Bo jangles lol

  • *this

  • @lordunbrax lol I just watched that b4 I watched tjis

  • this song reminds me of the song from Anastasia, In the Dark of the Night

  • @AmericanEmpires3000 oh yea like... TOTALLY!!!!!!!

  • @Smilez501 Nice job pointing out some forshadowing...I noticed the lilypad but I never noticed the other hints and what the lilypad ment!

  • This has now become my #1 favourite song... It's just so damn catchy... When I watched this movie for the first time I was lucky no one was around because I was doing some dancing in my seat... And I don't dance so it's rare when I start that.

  • @garbagemonkey101 so I've heard =)

  • @QuilleWolf It's a good movie

  • Oefhh I wouldn like to have friends on the other side... Hmm maybe if they would dance like that???? Nahhh!

  • naveen is amazing! lol

  • hints Naveen is becoming a frog.

    "You just wanna be free, HOP FROM PLACE TO PLACE, but freedom takes green.." at 2:39

    And oh yeah, HE SAYS GREEN LIKE 5 TIMES

    And at 2:51, He's on a Lilly pad :P

    There are your hints people :D

  • I love how he shows Naveen the third card and he's on a lilly pad

  • Hush.....

  • 3:55

    I think that might be umm ot smoke or something. XD

  • Disney needs to come out with a ride for this guy, like a fast motion 4D poppn ride called Friends on the Other Side

  • Dude I thought Hadies was good… until this guy (he looks like Eddie murphy ALOT!)

  • "Hop from place to place"

    ...I see what you did there Dr. Facillier...

  • The freakiest part is the little tiki heads goin "bom bom bom" and the creepy puppets bangin the drums!

  • Man he would be a horrible poker buddy, getting mad when he loses and making snakes tie you up and spirits fly around the room...

  • Best villain of all time

  • @bellydancebabe1234 watch the hunchback of notre dame. Frollo that's an evil bastard. He is a 10 times bigger villain then the shadowman

  • Awesome!!!!

  • This was my FAVORITE song in this movie!!!! Dr. Facilier FTW!!! XD

  • they are starting to go back to making classics :')

  • you got what you wanted,

    but you lost what you had!

    that is always the problem with dark magic!

  • @AnimeBigAl too true

  • i love how he do tht card thing he need to teach me how to do tht

  • Good singer for creepy dude!Lol little pot belly dude

  • Good singer for creepy dude!

  • i love it

  • anyone else thinks the man dances like Michael Jackson??? Naveen aint that bad lookin either....

  • I like when Navven says "Hello." at the begging.

  • How are Naveen's cheeks not cramping?? I mean, he has a big grin on his face up until Facilier curses him.....

  • lawerence has a fat wife

  • @wubzy27 yeh tht is hilarious

  • @wubzy27 yeh it kinda funny... ok its hilarious

  • I find Dr. Facilier quite sexy.

    Sorry, guys. :3

  • Theres a ton of foreshadowing here.

  • One of my alltime fav's

  • 1:44 - TIKI ROOM REFERENCE FTW!!!!!

  • It's very cool how they got the shadow man in this movie so close to the voodoo useres here in new Orleans however if they wanted to get closer they shoulda read up on Marie labou the voodoo queen. Been by her tomb it was weird

  • That Our Keith David!!!!

  • doctor facillier is definatly the scariest villain disney ever made!! and naveen is the most handsome prince ever made!!

  • @MsDemilovato4eva Until Flynn Rider. Lol.

  • @gothdoll101 haha yeh i guess..

  • @MsDemilovato4eva Eric's handsome too xD

  • This is an awesome villain and a great song. Comparing this film to Disney's newest one, Tangled, this movie wins in the villain department. I think Tangled is a better movie overall, but nothing beats Doc Facilier. :D

  • Oh, crud, I just realized...

    2:52 He's sitting on a lilypad. FORESHADOWING!

  • @THiNGYBOBinc haha omg ur right

  • At 1:40, when he throws the box away, that is from Aladdin when the bazaar merchant throws away the broken item at the beginning of the movie. This movie is by the makers of Aladdin, after all. Second, this song, Hellfire, and Poor Unfortunate Souls are the three best Disney villain songs IN MY OPINION.

  • @LotsOLuck777 "Be Prepared" is also a good one. In all, I thought the Disney villains got the best songs on the soundtrack. I guess they had to be compensated in some way for being snuffed in the film.

  • my fave part of the song: "ya got what ya wanted!! but ya lost what ya had!!" freaky...

  • 3:54 looks scary.

  • @Amyprotester i agree

  • At 2:51 the card looks like it has a lilypad, implying he'd turn naveen into a frog. Unfortunately naveen was too blinded by the money to notice this. XD

  • The dear prince turned Green

  • Who loves the little voodoo dolls running around

  • Dr. Facilier has some sweet moves....

  • I am a teenager and I am honestly frightened of The shadow man because of his creepy shadows. I honestly think he is one of the really great villains including scar from the lion king and ursula from little mermaid

  • @kristenrocks101 but dont blame him, u can blame hs friends on the otheeeeeerrrrr siiiiiiiiiiiiiiiide

  • am i the only one who thinks this guy seem dances a LOT like Michael Jackson?

  • @potatochips512 And Cab Calloway! :)

  • @potatochips512 Michael Jackson + Voodoo magic = Dr Facilier

  • @potatochips512 Also reminded me of Powerline's dancing in A Goofy Movie which I thought was a nice touch. :D

  • Excellent quality!

    The dr. Is easily one of my favorite Disney villians.

  • I LOVE THIS MOVIE.

  • 1. This is by far my favorite Disney villain theme. 2. I would never enter a voodoo emporium, especially if the witch doctor could make torches explode just by pointing at them(0:53). 3. At 3:54-3:58, I would crap myself if I saw that in real life.

  • dude just high-5ed his shadow...he is officially my idol :D

  • dude just high-5ed his shadow...he is officially my idol

  • Man, how I would LOOOVEEE to be Dr. Facilier

  • am i the only one who thinks that singing guy is hot?

  • @Sword414 It's called "Friends on the Other Side"

  • @MaryLizHicks Well all i know i heard on an interview the director said it was "Are You Ready?" And it came from my best friend, so i know hes not lying.

  • Um, the songs called "Are You Ready?" but thanks for uploading.
