10	Almost anytime a character has a large nose, [[ObviouslyEvil he's a bad guy]]. Many villains have big noses. They might be long and pointy, or a giant hook down their face, and may be emphasized with CreepyShadowedUndereyes. Bonus points if he has a mustache that he can twirl like a true DastardlyWhiplash. But for whatever reason, bad guys rock the big noses. Maybe it's symbolic of how ugly they are on the inside? Maybe it's just to [[OnlySixFaces distinguish]] between the honest good guys and the [[PinocchioNose less honest]] bad guys for the audience. No one nose.[[note]]Hold your tomatoes, please.[[/note]]

12	It's one of the great mysteries of life. One speculation is that children tend to have small, upturned noses, and since ChildrenAreInnocent, large noses are associated with age and lack of said innocence. (This is similar to HairOfGoldHeartOfGold.) Another possibility is that they're an {{Animal Motif\|s}} inspired by the long hooked beaks of [[ScavengersAreScum scavenging]] [[FeatheredFiend birds]] such as [[VileVulture vultures]] and [[CreepyCrows ravens]].
13
14	This is a common characteristic [[SizableSemiticNose in anti-Semitic stereotypes, especially if the nose in question is crooked]] and many GreedyJew stereotypes can be found with some kind of beak-like nose. The word "schnoz" derives from "schnozzle" which in turn derives from the Yiddish "shnoits" for "snout".
15
16	A very common feature of the WickedWitch, and consequently often shows up on the WitchClassic as well even when she's not meant to be portrayed as sinister.
17
18	It's also sometimes done in {{Anime}}, usually as a reference to {{Tengu}}, who are said to have large noses.
19
20	On a serious note, please don't assume that somebody in the real world is a bad person if they happen to have a large nose. This trope is hardly ever [[TruthinTelevision a case in real life]].
21
22	SisterTrope to VillainousCheekbones and ThinChinOfSin. Compare GagNose, when it's played for laughs.

28
29	[[folder:Anime & Manga]]
30	* The first ''Manga/{{Doraemon}}'' movie, ''Anime/DoraemonNobitasDinosaur'', have the villainous Black Mask whose hook-nose sticks out of his face like a sore thumb. It's even more pronounced in the 2006 remake which has several close-ups on him.
31	* Dog Master Galf in ''Manga/FistOfTheNorthStar''.
32	* ''Manga/OnePiece''
33	** Blackbeard from has a rather noticeable nose, and is a villain.
34	** The villain with the most evil-looking nose is obviously Arlong. Not only is his nose longer than Usopp's, it's ''shaped like a saw!'' Of course, he isn't human, but this feature is unusual even among Fishmen.
35	** Both Emperor Charlotte Linlin and her villainous son Charlotte Perospero have very big noses.
36	** Double subverted with [[spoiler:Kaku]], who was presented as a nice, upstanding guy in the Water 7 saga... [[spoiler:but actually was TheMole.]]
37	* Many of Creator/OsamuTezuka's characters, most notably ''Manga/AstroBoy'''s morally ambiguous creator Dr. Tenma, the twisted and angry [[Manga/{{Phoenix}} Saruta]] and Duke Red who made his debut as the BigBad of the original ''Anime/{{Metropolis\|2001}}'' manga. Averted with Professor Ochanomizu, however, who has a huge nose but is kind and ethical to a fault.
38	* King Piccolo of ''Manga/DragonBall'' has (what is for the series art style) a very large, hooked nose. The main facial difference between him and his {{reincarnation}} is that Piccolo Jr. has a normal-sized nose, and correspondingly is less evil and pulls a HeelFaceTurn.
39	* The CEO of Detnerat has one in ''Manga/MyHeroAcademia'', which undergoes a noticeable ArtShift [[spoiler:when he's showing his true colors as the leader of the Meta Liberation Army]]. Usually it's quite cartoonish, but [[spoiler:as a villain]] it's depicted as more realistic and with a noticeable hook.

42	[[folder:Comic Books]]
43	* ''ComicBook/{{Batman}}'':
44	** The Joker is sometimes drawn like this, DependingOnTheArtist. Creator/JimLee, in particular, [[http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_yb2sPgNSS4Q/TLS1QhunH3I/AAAAAAAAAX4/LQHgMRu2VQg/s1600/Jim+Lee+1.jpg likes to draw him this way.]]
45	** Why else would the Penguin be called such, aside from his short stature?
46	* The head nun from ''ComicBook/FireflyTheSting'' has a long, pointed nose and is antagonistic, locking up Zoe so that she'll be forced to join the convent.
47	* The title character from ''ComicBook/{{Iznogoud}}''. Just look at him. The evilest character in the comics, and he has the longest nose of any character.
48	* ''Franchise/{{Tintin}}'':
49	** Mr. Bohlwinkel, the BigBad of ''[[Recap/TintinTheShootingStar The Shooting Star]]''. It's clearly a SizableSemiticNose, as the character was written and drawn as an antisemitic caricature during UsefulNotes/WorldWarII when Belgium was occupied by Nazi Germany.
50	** [[ArchEnemy Rastapopoulos]]. This is even {{lampshade\|Hanging}}d in ''[[Recap/TintinFlight714 Flight 714]]'' when ''one of his own {{mooks}}'' (accidentally) likens his nose to that of a proboscis monkey.
51	* Krimson from ''ComicBook/SuskeEnWiske''.
52	* Eucalypta the witch from ''ComicStrip/PaulusDeBoskabouter'' has a large hook nose.
53	* ''ComicBook/DeKiekeboes'': Balthazar and Timothea Triangl have a huge nose.
54	* ''ComicStrip/{{Nero}}'': Richardo the maffiosi has a typical Italian nose.
55	* ''ComicBook/{{Jommeke}}'': Anatool has a hook nose.
56	* ''ComicBook/LuckyLuke'': The Daltons all have large bulbous noses.
57	* ''ComicBook/BlackMoonChronicles'': Haazheel Thorn has a very long and sharp nose as one of his many ObviouslyEvil traits.
58	* ''ComicBook/FantasticFour'': The Mole Man has a big, bulbous nose. (And he can ''[[TheNoseKnows use]]'' it, too.)
59	* Variously used in ''ComicBook/{{Asterix}}''. While the Gauls all have big tomato-like noses (a characteristic of many FrancoBelgianComics), several villains have them as well. UsefulNotes/JuliusCaesar has a tall, pointy nose, but so do several heroic characters (and women meant to be attractive more than humorous are shown with more normal noses as well. Apart from Cleopatra of course, whose long pointy nose is actually commented on as being outstandingly attractive by everyone).
60	* As a CaptainErsatz of the Penguin and the Joker, the Pink Flamingo of ''ComicBook/BigBangComics'' also has a pointy ‘beak’ that enhances the resemblance to his namesake — varying in length DependingOnTheArtist.
61	[[/folder]]
62
63	[[folder:Films -- Animation]]
64	* In ''WesternAnimation/BatmanMaskOfThePhantasm'', we see in a flashback that the mobster who killed Carl Beaumont has a noticeably long, knife-like nose. This actually cues Batman that the hitman was actually [[spoiler:''the Joker'']] in his pre-{{Supervillain}} days.
65	* Gru of ''Franchise/DespicableMe'' has a long needle-like nose. A subversion, that while he ''is'' a [[VillainProtagonist villain]], he's actually a [[AffablyEvil good]] [[AntiVillain person]].
66	* Chester V from ''WesternAnimation/CloudyWithAChanceOfMeatballs2'' has a long and pointy nose. Being an EvilCounterpart to Flint, whose nose is big and bulbous, it's fitting.
67	* Quite a few villains in the Franchise/DisneyAnimatedCanon, e.g. [[WesternAnimation/TheHunchbackOfNotreDameDisney Frollo]], [[WesternAnimation/{{Aladdin}} Jafar]], and [[WesternAnimation/PeterPan Captain Hook.]]
68	* In ''{{WesternAnimation/Dinosaur}}'', the villainous Iguanodons Kron and Bruton sport prominent nose crests, while the more heroic Iguanodon like Aladar and his love interest Neera do not.
69	* Alistair Krei from ''WesternAnimation/BigHero6'', a sleazy businessman. [[spoiler:It turns out he's ''not'' the villain Yokai -- it's Professor Robert Callaghan. In an interesting twist, our first real hint Krei isn't Yokai is his large nose, [[FridgeBrilliance which is too big to fit into the mask.]]]]
70	* ''WesternAnimation/TheSecretLifeOfPets2'': Sergei is the movie's villain and his nose shows it.
71	* The Chief Blue Meanie, Max and a number of Meanie minions sport a prolific proboscis in ''WesternAnimation/YellowSubmarine''.
72	* Invoked in ''WesternAnimation/PeaceOnEarth.'' Grandpa Squirrel mistakes the human soldiers [[GasMaskMooks gas masks]] for "long snoots what fastened onto their stomachs."
73	* Foreman Spike in ''WesternAnimation/TheSuperMarioBrosMovie'' is a downplayed example in that while he isn't a villain, he's mean and treats the Super Mario Bros. as though he were a school bully rather than a grown man. He has a long schnoz, carried over from his appearance in ''VideoGame/WreckingCrew''.
74	[[/folder]]
75
76	[[folder:Films -- Live-Action]]
77	* In ''Film/TheWizardOfOz'', The Wicked Witch of the West.
78	* The Child-Catcher of ''Film/ChittyChittyBangBang''. (It's [[TheNoseKnows rather useful too.]])
79	* Iris in ''Film/ThirtyDaysOfNight.'' Being played by Megan Franich, it's kind of a given.
80	* The title character from ''Film/{{Ink}}''. Often, it's all you can see under his hood. His angst over his ugliness helps drive the plot. [[spoiler:Subverted by the end, when he pulls a HeelFaceTurn and decimates the "pretty" Incubi.]]
81	* The [[TypeCasting many villains]] played by Creator/BasilRathbone.
82	** Creator/AlanRickman's nose is emphasized in his villainous or morally-ambiguous roles.
83	** And Creator/GeoffreyRush.
84	* ''Film/TheMenu'': One of Chef Slowik's unnamed female cooks has a big nose.
85	* ''Franchise/StarWars'':
86	** Watto in ''Episode I: Film/ThePhantomMenace'' has a huge, trunk-like nose, which contributed to the case of critics who called him an [[SpaceJews anti-Semitic stereotype]].
87	** Palpatine/Sidious' actor, Creator/IanMcDiarmid, has a rather large nose, which is very visible in the Prequel Trilogy and the last episode of the Original Trilogy. It is often the most visible part of his upper face when he's in his Sith robes, apart from his mouth and chin even when his eyes are fully hidden. And he is the [[BigBad main villain of the saga]], leaps and bounds beyond the small-time desert merchant Watto. According to [=McDiarmid=] himself, the reason why he was chosen to play Palpatine in the first place is because Lucas took notice of that very nose.[[note]]It's interesting to note that during the production of the Original Trilogy, Lucas has jokingly stated that the Emperor's real name is UsefulNotes/RichardNixon, who often caricatured with a large nose.[[/note]]
88	** Kylo Ren in ''Film/TheForceAwakens'' has a rather large nose when unmasked, courtesy of actor Creator/AdamDriver.
89	* In ''Film/MontyPythonAndTheHolyGrail'', one of the signs of a "witch" is having an extra-long nose. However, the nose is fake because the people put it on the woman in question. This IS a general characteristic of wicked witch characters in fiction, though.
90	* The main villain in ''Film/{{Apocalypto}}'' was given a larger, prosthetic nose, which Mel Gibson points out in the commentary.
91	* Blix the Goblin from ''Film/{{Legend 1985}}''.
92	* John E. Dupont in ''Film/{{Foxcatcher}}'' has a nose you can see before he comes into the room, really a prosthetic worn by Creator/SteveCarell. The point is driven home when he nasally corrupts Mark Schultz by getting him hooked on coke.
93	* ''Film/PiratesOfTheCaribbeanTheCurseOfTheBlackPearl'':
94	** Captain Barbossa, played by the aforementioned Mr. Rush, keeps his distinctive nose in skeletal form while the lower-ranking crew lose theirs.
95	** Subverted in the second film: Davy Jones had a strong nose when he was human, but in his {{Cthulhumanoid}} form is completely noseless.
96	* ''Film/FunnyMan'': As part of his VillainousHarlequin appearance, the Funny Man has a very crooked nose.
97	* ''Film/{{Thunderball}}'': Emilio Largo, the BigBad, has a prominent hook nose.
98	[[/folder]]
99
100	[[folder:Literature]]
101	* ''As I Darken'' gives the anti heroine, Lada, a hooked nose, which is mentioned a couple times. While she isn't the villain of the story, she is ugly, somewhat cruel, and violent—and other people see her as this trope because of her nose and her ugliness.
102	* In the NordicNoir ''Literature/{{Backstrom}}'' police novels by Leif G.W. Persson, there is the abominable Bäckström's ill-fated attempt to keep a pet. The [[FowlMouthedParrot creature]] is called Isaak owing to a chain of associations brought on by contemplation of its impressively large and hooked beak. This is of a piece with Bäckström's general attitude towards all ethnic minorities in Sweden. He isn't so much anti-Semitic as anti-''everybody''.
103	* Averted with Haverness in ''Literature/DragonBones''. He has a rather impressive nose, (and so has his daughter), and he is one of the most honest, straightforward people in the realm. Everyone (including those who are in favour of a revolution) agrees that trying to get him involved in a revolution would be stupid because he is so trustworthy and absolutely loyal to the king. When his daughter becomes involved in a revolution, he disowns her. [[spoiler:Or rather, pretends to do so. He loves his daughter dearly, but it is safer to pretend to have no ties to her. Still an aversion, as the king the revolution is against is a major jerk, and the rebels are the good gals and guys.]]
104	* ''Literature/HarryPotter''
105	** Toyed with in Severus Snape, who sports a large, hooked nose and is antagonistic towards Harry Potter, but is a DoubleAgent whose true alignment remains unknown until the very end of the series.
106	** Averted with Voldemort, who has two slits in the middle of his face, like snake nostrils.
107	** Inverted with Dumbledore, who has a large crooked nose, but is the BigGood.
108	%%* Hotzenplotz and Zwackelmann from ''Robber Hotzenplotz''. %% Zero Context Example
109	* The protagonist of ''Literature/ThePyatQuartet'' has a prominent nose. He laments that this makes people assume that he's [[BoomerangBigot one of those shifty Jews,]] [[SuspiciouslySpecificDenial which he isn't, not one bit, no sirree!]]
110	* ''Literature/TheSagaOfTheJomsvikings'': When Sigvaldi is introduced, he is described as tall, strong, "shrewd", and having "very fine eyes but an ugly nose". Sigvaldi's "ugly nose", which mars an otherwise handsome appearance, hints at the flaws of his character, namely, his treachery, which later shows when he deviously abducts King Svein in order to blackmail him to make peace with Burisleif, and when he flees from the Battle of Hjórunga Bay, in the process abandoning Vagn and his men to their fate.
111	* Several [[Literature/TheIcelandicSagas Icelandic sagas]] (to wit, Oddr Snorrason's ''Saga of Olaf Tryggvason'', ''Fagrskinna'', ''Kristni saga'', and ''The Greatest Saga of Olaf Tryggvason'') record a stanza of Old Norse invective poetry supposedly composed around 1000 CE by the Icelander Stefnir Thorgilsson in scorn of the Danish jarl Sigvaldi, the latter supposedly a notorious traitor who was blamed for betraying, at different opportunities, kings Svein Forkbeard of Denmark and Olaf Tryggvason of Norway. The verse itself makes a point of not mentioning the name of its target, but instead speaks only of a "villain" (''níðingr'') whose nose is "curved down", the latter allegedly being a salient physical feature of Jarl Sigvaldi.
112	-->''I will not name him, but I will aim close: The nose is curved down on the traitor who tricked King Svein from his realm and drew the son of Tryggvi into a trap.''
113	* Creator/AgathaChristie often indulged in anti-Semitism in her early books. ''Literature/TheSecretOfChimneys'' has Isaacstein, the GreedyJew and a generally unpleasant character, described as having "a generous curve" to his "big nose".
114	[[/folder]]
115
116	[[folder:Live-Action TV]]
117	* Fenella the kettle witch from ''WesternAnimation/ChorltonAndTheWheelies''.
118	* Averted in ''Series/DoctorWho'', where most actors to have played the lead role have had prominent noses (to suit the Doctor's typical '[[SlidingScaleOfBeauty funny-looking-but-attractive]]' aesthetic). A lot of this is because a lot of the show's iconography was fixed in the 1970s, and both Creator/JonPertwee and Creator/TomBaker had strikingly big and oddly-shaped noses. The villains, on the other hand, tend to be [[UglyHeroGoodLookingVillain more conventional-looking]] or monsters with no nose at all.
119	* ''Series/{{Farscape}}''. In "Coup By Clam", VillainOfTheWeek Doctor Tumii has an impressively-sized nose (albeit with squick-inducing snot) that gets [[ManBitesMan bitten off by Rygel]] towards the end of the episode.
120	* ''Series/{{Glee}}'':
121	** Downplayed with Rachel. Sinister may be a slight exaggeration, but she is an attention-seeking diva who has done things that would make [[EvenEvilHasStandards Sue Sylvester cringe]] to protect her place in the spotlight. And she's played by the famously large-nosed Creator/LeaMichele (who a number of other actors have ''not'' enjoyed working with).
122
123	** Played somewhat more straight with Sugar Motta, who [[DisabilityAsAnExcuseForJerkassery fakes Aspergers as an excuse to say whatever she wants]], [[SmallNameBigEgo doesn't have the talent that Rachel does to back up her bitchiness]], and has an even bigger nose.
124	* Averted in ''Series/{{MASH}}'' where Max Klinger's heart and fundamental decency are as big as his nose. although, as Hawkeye remarked, he once sustained 50% traumatic bodily damage necessitating life-preserving major surgery and intensive medical support when he broke his nose...
125	[[/folder]]
126
127	[[folder:Music]]
128	* Music/{{Gorillaz}}:
129	** The Boogie Man has an extremely long nose. It's the only facial feature visible.
130	** Murdoc's adoptive father Sebastian Niccals has a long, comical nose. He also put Murdoc through many [[AbusiveParents long years of humiliation and financial exploitation]], boasting a list of sins that would, according to ''Rise of the Ogre'', "put Bill Sykes to shame."
131	** Murdoc himself is a subversion of this trope. His nose is in fact broken so severely that it doesn't even ''look'' like a nose anymore. He's also a hedonistic, ChaoticStupid lech that's implied to be the Antichrist himself.
132	* Music/{{Eminem}} frequently references his striking "pointy nose" in his lyrics. There's a slight racial connotation to his references, since Black people tend to have softer and less protuberant noses than white people, making his angular nose both a reference to his villainous persona and his sinister AngryWhiteMan identity.

136	* Long hooked Noses are often used to identify Villains in Japanese Shadow Puppet Shows.

139	[[folder:Tabletop Games]]
140	* The [[OurGoblinsAreDifferent Gretchin]] of ''TabletopGame/{{Warhammer 40000}}'' have ridiculously long noses that take up half their head. The same is also true for their ''TabletopGame/{{Warhammer}}'' equivalents, the Goblins.
141	* The picture shown for the Imp (a minor devil-like creature) in the Monster Manual for 1st Edition [[TabletopGame/DungeonsAndDragons AD&D]] has a schnoz that would make Jimmy Durante jealous.

143

145	* Toujin the assassin from ''VideoGame/BattleArenaToshinden 3''.
146	* ''VideoGame/DarkestDungeon'': Most of the vampires seen in the ''Crimson Court'' DLC have some impressively pointy and elongated noses. There is a reason for this, however, and it's the fact the curse turned their noses into mosquito proboscises, complete with blood-sucking capacity.
147	* Tengu in ''VideoGame/DeadOrAlive 2''. But he ''is'' a [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tengu Tengu,]] so that is given.
148	* Patches of ''VideoGame/DemonsSouls'' and ''VideoGame/DarkSouls''.
149	* ''VideoGame/{{Deltarune}}'': Spamton has a long, pointy nose that highlights his status as a mad, manipulative figure. [[spoiler:The nose even becomes the subject of one of his attacks as [[{{Superboss}} Spamton NEO]]]].
150	* Loghain of ''VideoGame/DragonAgeOrigins'', who looks rather like Alan Rickman in general.
151	* [[BigBad Mordoc]] the EvilSorcerer from ''[[VideoGame/DragonsLair Dragon's Lair 2]]'', not only has a huge nose, there's a small twig growing on it!
152	* ''VideoGame/{{Extrapower}}'': ''[[VideoGame/ExtrapowerAttackOfDarkforce Attack of Darkforce]]'' and ''[[VideoGame/ExtrapowerStarResistance Star Resistance]]'' gives us Sunny Day, sporting a long mosquito-like snout flowing out from his propeller-topped head. He and Funny Face form a duo of lieutenants in the Dark Force army, nominally [[GoldfishPoopGang comedy relief]] but dangerous tools of Dark Force all the same, commanding mechanized troops and relishing in attacking civilians. Star Resistance also introduces Moon Base, a bioroid enemy deployed as base defense and an expert is saturating the screen with as many bullets on its own as the entirety of their escort units combined.
153	* ''VideoGame/KirbyStarAllies'': [[SinisterMinister Hyness]], the BigBad of the game, turns out to be a [[{{Gonk}} bizarre googly-eyed creature]] with a large, bulbous nose when Kirby knocks the [[InTheHood hood]] off his robes in the middle of his boss fight. [[spoiler:The "sinister" part is {{subverted\|Trope}} later on, though, with the reveal that he wasn't always evil, and used to be a benevolent religious leader until he [[SanitySlippage went insane]] after he got hold of the Jamba Heart. Unlike previous ''Kirby'' villains, he lives long enough to be redeemed at the end of the postgame campaign, "Heroes in Another Dimension".]]
154	* ''Franchise/TheLegendOfZelda'':
155	** Ganondorf could open a can of Coke with his sniffer. Interestingly, it goes from straight and needle-like to hooked and bent. Averted when he turns into his pig-form, where he gets a snout.
156	** Ganondorf gets his long nose from his race: the Gerudo, a race almost entirely made of women who work as DesertBandits in ''VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaOcarinaOfTime''. It's downplayed in their case because the Gerudo are actually quite nice to Link once he proves himself, and unlike Ganondorf they're implied to [[EvenEvilHasStandards actually have some class]]. Totally avoided by the time of ''VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaBreathOfTheWild'', where they still have the big noses but have dropped the banditry, being no meaner than the other civilized races of Hyrule.
157	** ''VideoGame/ZeldaIITheAdventureOfLink'': The Mago enemies are depicted in artwork with huge, hooked green honkers covered in warts, bringing to mind the nose of the classic WickedWitch.
158	%%** Koume and Koutake also play this straight (except in ''[[AlternateUniverse Majora's Mask]]'').
159	* Igor from the ''Franchise/{{Persona}}'' series is an aversion; in spite of his shnoz he's nothing but helpful. ''VideoGame/Persona5'' has [[spoiler:the main villain ''impersonating'' Igor for most of the game, meaning it's subverted--while when disguised as Igor he has the trademark can-opener-nose, his true form has a robotic flat face.]]
160	%%* Heiss in ''VideoGame/RadiantHistoria''.
161	* ''Franchise/SuperMarioBros'':
162	** Wario and Waluigi, though they aren't always villains. Mario and Luigi both also have large noses, but they are of the non-sinister type. The difference is that Mario and Luigi have noses that are less noticeable because they are smooth, round, and the same color as the rest of their faces while Wario and Waluigi have noses that stand out on their faces because they are beak-like and an unhealthy-looking bright pink.
163	** Foreman Spike from ''VideoGame/WreckingCrew'' has a rather long schnoz and is an enemy in that game, knocking Mario off of platforms if he isn't careful.
164	* ''VideoGame/{{Warcraft}}'' goblins are more neutral than evil, but still have long noses.
165	** While the Steamwheedle goblins are just shrewd businessmen, the Bilgewater goblins added in ''Cataclysm'' are more like gangsters. Their mob boss, Gallywix, even built himself a pleasure palace in the middle of Azshara with its own mountaintop golf course.
166	** In the cataclysm zone of Uldum, the main villain for most of the quests is a goblin tresure hunter and his mercenary army that are working for [[BigBad Deathwing]]. He's named Schnotz.

187	-->"I'm not sure if Disney invented it, but animators know that the quickest way to turn the audience against someone is to have them sniff the ceremonial turd. Decent people instinctively know you shouldn't be poking your nose around that area and won't root for the turd sniffer."

196	%%** Snidley Whiplash from ''WesternAnimation/DudleyDoRight''.

(Seriously, [[http://garfield.wikia.com/wiki/Al_Swindler just look at him!]]) In fact, in his second appearance, Garfield says, "I'm not too good with names, but I never forget a nose like that."

205	* Dr. Doofenshmirtz, the AffablyEvil villain from ''WesternAnimation/PhineasAndFerb'', has an impressive one. It was even [[LampshadeHanging lampshaded]] once:

207	%%* ''WesternAnimation/TheSimpsons'': Mr. Burns
208	* Gargamel, from ''WesternAnimation/TheSmurfs1981'', an evil wizard and sworn enemy of the Smurfs, is portrayed in the animated TV show as having a long nose.
