Description:
> This is part of My Disney Villain Recast Project! Where I'll be taking numerous villains from all over the place and dressing them up as various Disney Villains they fit as, All throughout The month!
>
> Today it will be Nightmare Moon (MLP) as Maleficent (Sleeping Beauty)
>
> Now here, The reason is quite complicated…They are both overrated and do jack shit most of the time.
>
> Maleficent gets treated likes she's the most powerful Disney villain out there, when she's not. (Hello, Hades? A literal GOD?) And also gets treated like she's so memorable…I can barley remember her doing anything aside from cursing the Princess in the title (See, I can't even remember the princess's Name) and turning into a dragon…She was even put as the number 1 villain on numerous lists! Beating out a shit ton of more deserving villains (Again, HADES) Like really?! Out of ALL the Disney villains, this bitch is "the Best?" Hell, I'll even take the Live-action Maleficent over the animated one. Yeah I said it. Fight meh.
>
> As for Nightmare Moon, It's a similar case. While she's not the most overrated villain (That goes to Discord…Who was only a villain ONCE, B4 being redeemed and proceeding to become the worst fucking character in anything ever…Making you wonder why the hell they didn't just keep him as a villain. (Even though as a villain he was pretty bad too, Like Really? Chocolate rain? Where's the "Chaos" I was promised?!)) She is the most…lackluster.
> Like I get it, The show was just beginning, Of course they couldn't go all out immediately. But the problem is…they never went back to it. They focus on Luna's Guilt, That part is done well, But for what she feels guilty of is…Never explored…At least, Not well.
> Every time Nightmare Moon gets a chance to shine, she wastes it.
> We get a flashback to her banishment, Should be awesome right? Wrong. Turns out she did almost nothing b4 simply being banish.
> We see an Alt future where she wasn't defeated, This should show how badass she can be right? Wrong. Cuz it turns out…Nothing is really that bad here. She banished Celly to the moon…But that's it. Everything else is just dark lighting. And compared to all the other futures (even the freaking Flim Flam Bros!) hers is the most…tame. But hey, She mentions using the time spell to make sure she stays winning, so maybe something cool will come out of that? Wrong, Cuz immediately Twi Breaks free from her capture and prevents anything from coming out of that, In literally seconds!
> She gets one last shot in season 7's "A Royal Problem"…And she is Overshadowed (No pun intended) By her Sister's Evil Counterpart! The hell man? (Tho DayBreaker is Awesome)
> Like in terms of Villains…Even Dicklord was more effective then her (And again, He was only a villain ONCE! Tho considering how much horrible shit he continued to do afterwards…Yeah, Why the hell did they "Redeem" him?)
>
> Other then Being overrated and wasteful disappointments. They also have Dark shadowy powers (that we barley ever see them use) and evil Minions (That are also completely useless.)…Yeah, they both kinda suck. (Mostly Nightmare Moon, Cuz At least Mal could turn into a dragon)
>
> Anyway, onto The drawing! It was quite tricky, The Drawing part Due to Mal's Robes and the Coloring Part due to how MLP Chars are colored. But I managed to get it look right.
> Also Rather then Leave NM as a pony, I based it off of what she would look like as a Equestria Girl Character. Using Luna's EG counterpart as a ref. I also Altered Mal's Colors a bit to match The MLPEG Style as well. I really love the End Result. Much better then the last one at least.
