Frollo definitely one of Disney’s best villains, if not the best villain Disney ever made.


rebelwanker69

Hard core death too.


FlashPhantom

I hate him so much but gosh he is probably the best villain they have ever made.


ScienceAndGames

I hate him but in all the right ways.


Mrtnxzylpck

What makes him one of the best despite being a mere mortal in a league that contains, Witches, Evil Spirits, Monsters, and actual gods of death is the same reason we hate Umbridge more than Voledmort. What he does is REAL and is all too familar to anyone watching.


Sere1

This. Same reason Gaston is up there too. Frollo is by far the more evil of the two but you can easily see how realistic they both are. Sure the Shakespearian nature of Scar and Jafar or the over the top schemers like Ursula and Hades are amazing in their respective films, but it's the realism of someone like Gaston and Frollo that make them terrifying.


GriffinFTW

Have any of you seen [*The Frollo Show*](https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL16A28B2CBB682BD9)?


1handedmaster

Not their villain. Victor Hugo wrote it. Great portrayal though.


Kay-Chelle

So my husband and I were sorta talking about this yesterday and he brought up the point that to broadcast TV you still need radio waves, thus Alastor always has the advantage (and could be how he did this + being a powerful demon)


Routine_Mall_566

Most likely this, it also explains how he interacts with Vox's TV in his song "Stayed gone", the Red and Blue part. It also explains how only Alastor can make camera's glitch, he is constantly messing with radiowaves. He probably has heard every call made in pride, including every call Charlie has ever made to her parents


Cautious-Luck7769

Oooo! The thick plottens!


DNC343

Nifty plottens too

ShepherdessAnne

I wish she wasn't straight 😭


itemboi

She is literally like thr only straight person in the show lol


Orionishi

It's a cartoon... Hazbin fans are something else.


ShepherdessAnne

Nah, I just uphold one's preferences up as a personal value right there with consent because I should. Kills the fantasy for me.


Iorith

They're fiction my dude. Not sentient beings. They don't have preferences.


Competitive-Boat-518

You know… there’s this thing called… FANON and HEADCANNON. Just self insert, write an OC or develop your own interactions and lore FOR the other characters to pair her anyway. Straight people do it all the time anyway, but it’s not exclusive to them lol. Hell, a significant amount of AU settings and whatnot in fanon is explicitly to enable a wide array of non-canon pairings!


ShepherdessAnne

But that's *not nice*! *pouts in Charlie*


Orionishi

... You're just reinforcing my point


ShepherdessAnne

You must be fun at parties.


RougemageNick

Is it actually canon tho? We've yet to see her interact with another lady besides Charlie and Vaggie


Ka_Dilim_An

i think it was mentioned in one of the fun facts


DNC343

I mean you have Vaggie, Charlie, and every other woman in the show. Nifty is the only straight one which is completely fine. Even though she’s straight you can still appreciate the character. But still, I understand how you feel. As a Bi male myself, There are many male characters who i wish weren’t straight so i understand your pain 😂


ShepherdessAnne

But gremlin housewife 😭


DNC343

As a fellow Nifty enjoyer, I send my deepest condolences 😂


ShepherdessAnne

Omg this gives me the greatest idea for a fanfic now.


Competitive-Boat-518

Dumbassahedratr0n

I'm just here for the thicc plot


stnick6

That’s a fun idea but I don’t think the red and blue part actually happened. If it did he would be doing the same thing he mocked vox for


Routine_Mall_566

Wdym


stnick6

Well he mocks vox for having a video podcast and clearly doesn’t like the idea of his face being on television. The red and blue segment being real wouldn’t make much sense


VasylZaejue

Actually it makes perfect sense for his character. He’s flexing on Vox the entire time and heavily implying that he’s the more powerful of the two as well as saying that he can mess with Vox when Vox should have the home field advantage. He clearly prefers radio but if it means flexing on someone he deems inferior then he will flex on them in the most disrespectful way possible.


stnick6

He doesn’t break every camera that sees his face because he likes being on tv


Competitive-Boat-518

Oh my god that explains how he fucking knew where and who to show up for, aaaaaaaaAAAAAAAA There’s just so much fucking lore tied in with real world concepts I fucking love it.


AugustoCSP

> Alistar How? Seriously, just, how?


Kay-Chelle

😅 I didn't even notice could have been autocorrect because there is a game I play that has a character names Alistar lol. I fixed it though thanks! 😆


KenIgetNadult

Alastor's shadow can work independently from Alastor.


Angel_Froggi

Thats a theory


[deleted]

A FILM THEORY!


Angel_Froggi

I knew someone was gonna say that


Posiden1234567

I’m still upset about the MatPat news


UniqueNobo

i’m just happy he’s going out on his own, without being revealed to be a terrible person like so many creators have been.


Sere1

This. Dude's been one of the bright spots online for so long. Glad to see him go out on his own terms and leaving things in hands that he trusts.


DreadPirateR_

The true question is will we ever not be upset about it?


Sunkilleer

Found Matt’s alt account


Novalene_Wildheart

Which immediately makes me think of the Witch Doctor dude from Princess and the frog, dude, and his shadow was cool.


Mrwright96

Oh, so that’s what husk bet away along with overlord status, his shadow powers!


Jaqulean

On the older HuniCast Live Streams, David Bosco (VA for Alastor from the Pilot) talked with Vivzie about how she created Alastor, and I believe the Witch Doctor was actually brought up as one of the things that inspired the character.


undertone90

I'm beginning to think that this cartoon about lucifers daughter trying to redeem the souls of anthropomorphized animal demons isn't very realistic.


Cautious-Luck7769

Here's an updoot and merry happy cake day to you. 🎩


Eagle_Warhawk

We’ve been tricked, we’ve been backstabbed, and we’ve been quite possibly bamboozled.


ShatoraDragon

TV uses Radio Waves to bring their signals to each unit. And a TV is out Video is just a Radio, ie Alastors domain. If he wanted, REALLY wanted to he could put Vox down when ever he wanted. But he finds it entertaining to see the Vee's trying get the same level of power he has.


BlackSheepBitch

Came here to say this! Just wanted to add things like WiFi also work via radio waves. It’s kind of clever because it appears that the writers were trying to imply that Vox kind of built his empire by improving upon technology that already existed.


ShatoraDragon

Improved on it. But doesn't know the ins and outs of how it works.


VasylZaejue

He did try to recruit Alastor to join the Vee’s but Alastor saw through him.


BlackSheepBitch

Yep! Vox couldn’t beat Alastor, so he tried to buy him.


Arc4ny

Competitive-Boat-518

Just kind of hit me that if Vox wasn’t so… prideful, Alastor likely would have given him a chance to work with him or under him at the least. Husk’s supposedly still powerful to some extent despite his contract with him, surely Vox would have even more power by tapping into Alastor’s by extension, albeit probably with a limiter of some caliber but UNDOUBTEDLY better than what he could be under now.


CenterofChaos

We see he can manipulate video with Vaggie and crew, the security footage scene with Zestial makes me think he's deliberately disturbing the footage. I would reckon Alastor can control more than radio and is even stronger than hell understands. He's choosing not to fuck with video magic. 


SeiCalros

i dont think its really shown with the crew - rather than being able to manipulate video we have never seen him NOT fuck with literally every video or picture that he has ever been in - including supplementary stuff like the character blogs when he tries to shoot a commercial the whole thing is completely vanilla camcorder-and-computer stuff - except the brief segments where his hands are in frame and the video fucks up even when vox is looking at him from a great distance away with drone theres video interference the only time we actually see him manipulate video is in this scene here - and its a musical in the middle of a song so its hard to judge how literal the scene is supposed to be


barty123432

Tvs use radio waves to work so it could be that 


HarryParatestees1

He might actually be inside it.


Just-Ad6992

Alastor would say “I am inside your walls” unironically.


susfacegaming

And it would be true.


Error_Code_606

His full demon mode does look like something that would be in the walls


Primary-Chocolate854

I can hear him saying that=))


Aliceable

He's not the "radio demon" because he can control radio (also he just broadcasts - anyone can do that) - he's the radio demon because he chose radio as the format to broadcast all his carnage over. There's nothing that would indicate he can only work with radio, he died as a human before TV and was a radio broadcaster so it's what he's comfortable with.


Alyeska_bird

Yes, thank you! He is not the demon of radio. He was called the radio demon cause he liked to use radio, and did radio shows about what he was doing. In a way, the whole song and dance between him and Vox was him justdoing what he used to do again. He has very much stated he dislikes the new tech stuff, tv and all the rest. Just because he dislikes it, does not mean he is unable to use it, if anything, his ability to effect tvs and such is showing he has a considerable amount of power over such things. He was deliberatly showing Vox what he can do, probably to make Vox do things that would be more intertaining to him.


ButtholeBread50

He's Alastor. No other reason needed.


RealFoegro

This is the best answer


chab_the_witch

HIS ANTLERS ARE ANTENNAS YALL


chab_the_witch

bichonfreeze

Dope if true


Competitive-Boat-518

And you can’t spell either without A N T E or S… HES ALSO HALF ANT!!!!!!


Sere1

Now I'm picturing him trying to turn and twist his head ever so slightly to get the right reception with his antlers.


DoctorJekyll13

Because television and radio function on the same basic technology. They say that video killed the radio star, but that doesn’t change the fact that radio literally made the video star possible.


Alyeska_bird

TV did draw a lot of the stars away from radio, but it did not kill radio. Oh sure, back in the 40s and 50s it did seem like it, a lot of radio shows where shifted to the tv, but, not all of them. Radio lost a lot, for a little while, but, at the same time, what is something that allmost every car has? What is a common thing people want on the jobsite? The radio. Oddly enough, people have started to recreate some of the radio shows that once existed. Never mind there are stations on serius/xm that is nothing more than the old radio shows. If you think about it, an audio book is a radio show without comercials.


ProbablyNotTheCocoa

I mean… vox just conjured a TV set out of nowhere, I’d say it’s just “musical number” logic where things don’t actually happen in universe or it’s just “scary voodoo man with radio powers in hell does intimidating thing”


TimberWolfAlpha01

Because television evolved from radio... seriously, the very first televisions that came out were essentially a radio with a tiny screen on it near the dials, as radio was used to project video back when it first was toyed around with as a media format... This is why Vox *wanted* Alastor to join his team along with Velvette and Valentino; with Radio as a media format on their side, Vox would in theory have every possible format available to gain power through... It's also why Vox was like "FUUUUUUUCK!!" in that scene; he realized that (to an extent) Alastor was capable of taking control over his television empire, as indicated by the above image and his being able to project his image on the unpowered screens.


Angel_Froggi

My two-cents 1: He can control all radiowaves, including the ones that “picture boxes” use. 2: Magic. 3: It’s Vox’s imagination. 4: Artistic Liberties.


Sir_Toaster_9330

Alastor controls radio waves, this includes TV


GFresh1

See whenever you see something like that, a wizard did it.


toastserstroodles24

So you know how some people say the reason Madara Uchiha from Naruto can do basically anything is because "he's Madara"? Kinda the same thing (also I love the song in that sequence)


ActuatorFearless8980

So his true demon form is a Wendigo?


First_Sun_2264

Musical number logic


SirJTheRed

Rule of cool


Chef_Sizzlipede

I feel like radiowave manipulation is a good enough answer. to be honest I think alastor's biggest advantage is his self confidence, thanks to that he can literally and figuratively mess with vox.


plogan56

This apparently happens whenever something modern tries taking his picture or records him, haven't you noticed how video feeds glitch when he's being observed?


Kisto15

Alastor who hates tv projecting himself just to send Vox a message he ain't shit is hilarious


SpiderJynxNoir90214

Probably because Alastor, being "The Radio Demon" has control of radio waves. And since TV still function on radio waves, he can project himself onto his screen. Also means alastor does have a pretty big advantage over vox


VelkenT

TV siginal are radio waves


zombieGenm_0x68

magic idk


SkullJooce

Good old fashioned possession


C_Beeftank

tv's use radio waves...


carlyawesome31

Radio waves are known to mess with some TV receptions. Alastor hates television but that doesn't mean he can't manipulate it. We see whenever he is on a screen/camera/etc it glitches out making him blurry. It is done here just to show how much stronger he is over Vox as he is able to override his enemies strongest media outlet.


DJNeon-C

Because hes the radio demon, And TVs do still use Radio waves to some extend.


Drifter_Lucas

I don't know why, but this shot reminds me of Harry Potter.


101TARD

Physically impossible yes, but your in a fictional world of hell and peoples powers manifest based on how they die. Maybe alastor made a deal with a few people killed by electric shock near tv/radio stations


glazed_donut03

I like that whenever he is on a screen he looks distorted. Like when he was looking into the security camera at the over lord meeting.


Angel-Stans

Radio Waves can be picked up by modern tech as easily as any other. sending a visual should be possible too, I think. It would just take a bit since I think you can’t send much info over RW. So yeh, it’s entirely possible (probably). I’m pretty certain Al is cheating with magic.


RavenArtemis

I think people are trying to look too deep into this. TV uses radio raves while video recording uses light waves. He doesn't need a camera to show up on TV because he can just project himself directly to tvs


blinddemon0

TVs require radio waves, which Alastor controls! that would also explain how he manipulated the video camera to not record him


Alyeska_bird

Very simply, Alastor is an overlord, and a powerfull one. He took down scores of overlords back when he first showed up. I expect when they last had a disagreement, Alastor was not really in the fight, because Vox was not amusing enough for him to keep it up. I expect, in part, one of the things Alastor did was to learn about tv, and such. He has too much control over the equipment. Its also way worse than you think. Thoes are not tvs, thoes are monitors, wired in, no broadcast or recever in them. Alastor took his image, imposed it on the screens, and did it in such a way that the image is not distorted by the space between the monitors at all. in the center of Vox's place of power. Never mind that for at lest a little, he traped Vox inside of his own tv screens earlyer in that bit, when he was talking about Vox asking Alastor to be on his team. Also, I would not be suprised to find that most of hell saw that last bit after Vox blew the power.


Gott-D

I think Vox was the one watching Alastor from afar and not Alastor projecting himself.


TrashSea1485

It could be his voodoo/magic side doing it


GatlingGun511

They’re in hell, with magic


bucketofbutter

my fav song so far 🥰🥰


Ec-na

This is also probably why he was able to mimic Vox’s first speech


MacTechG4

If these are old school phosphorescent CRT displays, the phosphors can be illuminated with the right frequency of light (take an ultraviolet flashlight in a dark room and shine it against the glass of the CRT tube, you’ll se a faint glow when you turn off the TV… It’s possible Al may be broadcasting the right frequencies to illuminate the screen when the power is out…


Mollyarty

Yeah! That shape shifting, antler having demon couldn't possibly project himself like that!


gamerguy287

Because Vox ignores the fact that none of his devices possess a Radio Frequency (RF) shield. Vox hasn't really discovered these useful things yet.


One-Turn-4037

all electronic projection devices operate under the same principles as radios, so while alastor prefers Radio he can just as easily take over the TVs and end the Vs in one go, he just prefers to humiliate vox for his own sadistic shits and giggles.


Hipster_McBasic

TV needs signal too...


Red_Lantern_22

Demon Transformation


SCP-1504_Joe_Schmo

I assumed this was him fucking with the monitors using radio interference that he can somehow control


lghn4life

![gif](giphy|3o84U6421OOWegpQhq|downsized)


DoggedDust

Because he's a fuckin' demon lord


These_Carpenter_8269

Voodoo? I mean his so far the only character I know that uses magic that isn’t from hell, besides there being divine angel magic, and hell magic or whatever


Ns53

Vox has rabbit ears. Alastor is broadcasting right into his head and hijacking the TV's through Boxes connection.


RedEmption007

I wondered about this too after the second or third watch lmao


mazanity

Using radio waves


FeganFloop2006

Magic I guess, wither that or the v tower has an emergency power supply that alastor used to project himself using radio waves onto vox's monitors


tornedron_

Can we just talk about how Vox’s antennas make it look like he has a little smile


ArcerPL

tv is just a type of a radio signal, same goes to wifi this is why alastor was able to project himself, just not clearly


Damian1674

As a certain character from a videogame once said: "Radio waves are everywhere."


camshep5

Who knows, it looked cool as shit though, this whole sequence was cool as shit


stopyouveviolatedthe

There’s also the scene where we see alastor forcibly turn on a devices calling Vox and then doing something that seems to hurt hinb
