Disney animated movies in which the villain doesn't die at the end?


People often talk about how the villains in Disney cartoons often die a horrible death at the climax of the movie. However, there's are quite a few in which the bad guy survives or, in some cases, doesn't get defeated at all. I think there are actually more films in which this is the case, actually.

Pinocchio: Unfortunately Stromboli, the Coachman, and Honest John never get punished for their crimes. I don't really consider Monstro a villain, just an animal acting on instinct.

Bambi: If the hunter counts as the villain, that is. Though I like to believe that he died in the forest fire.

Cinderella: Lady Tremaine and her two daughters should have gotten some type of comeuppance but sadly they don't, other than misery I suppose.

Alice in Wonderland: It was just a dream though so I guess I'm not mad about the Queen of Hearts not getting what she deserved.

Peter Pan: Captain Hook is chased off by the crocodile but survives.

101 Dalmatians: That car accident should have killed Cruella.

The Sword and the Stone: I'm pretty sure that Madam Mim just got sick, but didn't die.

The Jungle Book: Shere Kahn could have died from the flaming stick tied to his tail but he returns in the sequel.

The Aristocats: Edgar survives.

Robin Hood: Prince John lives.

The Rescuers: Medusa is left stranded with her alligators snapping at her but she isn't shown to be killed.

Fox and the Hound: Slade doesn't die, unfortunately.

Aladdin: Jafar doesn't die in this one, he is killed in the sequel.

Pocahontas: Ratcliffe lives.

Hercules: Hades is pushed into the river of souls or whatever, but I don't think it kills him.

The Emperor's New Groove: Yzma lives.

Did I miss any?

Yeah you missed Frozen which is on tonight and I believe it is on Saturday as well. And I haven't seen it in a long while I believe didn't also the villain of Wreck-It Ralph also doesn't die.

Oh yeah, Frozen. I've only seen it once. The villain in Wreck it Ralph did die though for sure.

Looks like you got most of them. Regarding Hercules, I myself imagine Hades doesn't die because he is a god and is therefore immortal.
