Sorry to keep placing one comment after another on here, which I'm sure you're probably tired of me doing. But while there are users out there who hate Dawn Bellwether personally for being a twist villain and go after others feeling sympathy for her like its a deadly sin, I see and often hear about how people feel sympathy for Princess Azula which I do not understand personally after all the episodes I have seen on "Avatar: The Last Airbender" especially after watching the episode "Zuko Alone" where we look into the past and find out that Azula has been named after her grandfather Fire Lord Azulon, and that she was always a devil child from the way she treats her brother, mother Ursa, and Uncle Iroh horribly which is cruel, even for a child her age. Even if it was because she turned to her father Ozai for encouragement and support, we know where and how she got such a terrible attitude from. Maybe because she was given more development after the start of the second season, it became harder and harder for me to ever feel any amount of sympathy for her on anything as I see nothing tragic about her in the least after all the horrible things she did. Still even if I were to think some finds let their sympathy for a villain like her blind them into the type of person she already proved to be, her chances of finding redemption and peace seem rather slim and unlikely. Most of everything she brought on herself by choosing to go down that path, with the damage already been done. And if she had been Fire Lord, she would have only been like her father and given no peace anytime or real happiness. I'll never understand people's sympathy for Azula, but I will not go after or call out on those people for doing so.



If Disney doesn't bother to have Bellwether return in the sequel or just uses her as a throwaway villain evil for the sake of it, I'm going to be super pissed. I mean why create a sweet, timid, meek, shy, quiet sheep with a mysterious past and lack of further and deeper development only to toss her aside as if they never wanted us to feel anything for her in the first place, not even when they just had to PICK someone to be the villain to throw in a catch phrase of wolf in sheep's clothing, but don't give her enough screen time and just use the same "least suspecting character" cliché which now feels like watching a very long Scooby Doo episode that is already getting tiring? They just did this with Randall Boggs, and my sympathy for them does not blind me into not knowing what characters they really are, but I can tell by their movements throughout the film that they are indeed hiding something that the heroes don't know and would at least reveal they did not start out that way, but tragic consequences in life drove them off the deep end into doing things they would later regret, even if it is not shown on screen. We all know who Chirin, Randall Boggs, Lord Shen, Baby Doll, Mr. Freeze, Two-Face, Agatha Prenderghast, Phantom of the Opera, Callaghan, and Lucy/Nyu (Elfen Lied) were before they took on the path of villainy, with some of their actions being hypocritical, but our sympathy for them never leaves. So why couldn't they give Bellwether the same deeper development? Oh I get it, because they only want us to feel related and root for the heroes. Not that I have anything against heroes, but even villains like Bellwether deserve a chance to have their side of the story told and I still suspect she is not all that she seems, no matter what the movie wants us to believe. Even when "Monsters Inc" first premiered, I remembered having doubts and uncertainties about Randall Boggs being the main villain as Waternoose made himself appear more as the true villain behind everything at the end, with Randall being more second, despite that I know he shares the same guilt as Waternoose shares most of it. I know that Bellwether isn't a totally innocent angel as none of the other villains are that I mentioned. They still possess their diabolical traits, but as I said, my sympathy for them never leaves. Some people just don't understand how some "villains" do not start out that way and there was a time they were good and innocent themselves, doesn't mean they have no chance of turning around. Plus I doubt everything Bellwether did NICE was all just an act to hide herself as some easily believe. I mean cartoons don't always have to be one hundred percent realistic, otherwise that takes away the fun.



Yet I still get sick and tired of hearing people treating Lionheart like a totally innocent victim who can do no wrong and that he only wanted to do what was right for the city, despite the fact that he was still breaking the law, keeping the ZPD in the dark about the missing mammals instead of contacting them right away, and not bothering to contact the families of the missing mammals leaving them to worry to death of their disappearance. And he never apologized to Bellwether for anything, which he owes her and wouldn't be in most situations as mayor without her. Him having good intentions does not make him a good guy which fans seem to forget.



I wouldn't go so far as saying Bellwether will have no part in the sequel as it's too early to say that because we don't even know just yet. Perhaps if they listened to what fans want with Bellwether, you never know if there may be a possibility. Anything is possible. But Bellwether needs her side of the story told, not be left in the dark lost and forgotten as just another power hungry villain who deserves what she gets just for being picked as the villain. That feels like a waste of her beautiful and adorable character design that I grew to love, no matter who she was. I mean there was a rumor of a Kung Fu Panda 4 with it being mentioned that Lord Shen will return. So you never know.



So terribly sorry WastedTime, sorry if some of my words here before came off harsh as they probably shouldn't have. Truth is that I'm not always good with trying to be as honest or truthful without making it sound like I don't accept anyone else being truthful in their own opinion or point of view. I deeply apologize if I might have gone too far.
