Anything that stands in the way of a goal or has opposing values can be a villain. Villains don’t have to be mustache-twirling creeps. In the movie Inside Out, there is no traditional villain. Joy wants life to be happy, and it is only sadness that keeps her from it. Classic villains include Voldemort, Darth Vader, and the Wicked Witch of the West. Villains can be a group of people, an institution, or a government. An opposing force doesn’t even need a face. Many movies involve man against nature.
