* Many Disney characters in the [[Franchise/DisneyAnimatedCanon animated canon]], [[EvilIsHammy but especially the villains]].
* ''[[Disney/TheRescuers The Rescuers Down Under]]'' has Percival C. [=McLeach=], as portrayed by George C. Scott.
-->Let's see if we can't refresh that rusty old memory of yours. Is she on SATAN'S RIDGE? Or NIGHTMARE CANYON? What do you think Joanna? Yeah that's it. Right smack dab in the MIDDLE, at CROC FALLS!
* The [[WickedStepmother Wicked Queen]] in ''Disney/SnowWhiteAndTheSevenDwarfs'' is the first in that canon and a particularly wonderfully {{nightmar|eFuel}}ish example. (This may have a lot to do with her being voiced by Lucille [=LaVerne=], a stage and silent film actress. She's also visually based on Kate Hepburn.)
** Actually, although she has a few drips of ham, the Queen is one of the more subtle villains out there. When she turns herself into the hag on the other hand, all bets are off, and she chews the scenery wonderfully.
* Scar, from ''Disney/TheLionKing'' played by Creator/JeremyIrons.
** "'''IDIOTS!!!''' THERE WILL ''BE'' A KING!! '''IIIIIII''' WILL BE KING! STICK WITH ME, AND YOU'LL ''NEVER GO HUNGRY'' '''AGAIN!!!!'''" So, how many hams ''does'' it take to feed a pride of lions, Scar?

** Forte in ''Disney/BeautyAndTheBeastTheEnchantedChristmas'', voiced by Creator/TimCurry.
** Gaston ham is taken UptoEleven in the musical, where he gets his very own solo when he proposes to Belle, [[CrowningMomentofFunny it's hilarious]]
** Whenever Beast gets angry, he hams up accordingly ("Then go ahead and STAAAAAAAAAAAAARVE!").
* Except maybe Pat Carroll's Ursula the Sea-Witch from ''Disney/TheLittleMermaid'', who actually turns herself into a ''very'' large...octopus...for the finale. She may be the first and only Disney villain to actually shake her moneymakers for the camera.
** "And ''don't'' underestimate the importance of...'''[[FanDisservice BODY LANGUAGE!]]'''"
** Well, the only one until Alameda Slim, who not only dances, but can "[[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=deQK2cgyZmE YODEL ADLE ELDE IDLE OOOOOO!]]" No ham is complete without a Las Vegas performer-esque shiny outfit.
** In poker terms, Marina Del Rey from Ariel's Beginning will see you that outfit, and raise you a time-space wormhole from Bob Mackie's warehouse that leads directly into her underwater armoire.
* All we gotta do is build an act. Make ya a star. A headliner! Disney/{{Dumbo}} the Great!
** Timothy Mouse from Dumbo is a non-villainous example of a LargeHam. Who knew a circus mouse impersonating Nosferatu in one scene would take hamminess to extremes!
* For pure, unadulterated, lean Grade A ham, nothing beats a thick, juicy slab of [[Disney/{{Aladdin}} Jafar]].
** "'''GENIE!''' My second wish! I wish to be ''the most POWERFUL sorcerer...'' '''''IN THE WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOORLD! [[EvilLaugh AH HA HA HA HA HAAAA!]]'''''"
** "'''[[AGodAmI THE UNIVERSE IS MINE TO COMMAND!!!]] TO ''[[ChewingTheScenery CONTROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL]]''!!!!!'''"
** Even better, in the second film he gets a [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vYyO44U2BQ4 whole musical number]], every line of which seems to made entirely of pun-filled ham.
** The only thing that could make Jafar more hammy is if he was voiced by Creator/TimCurry. Case in point; [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x_FguEpJ3fo his Reprise]] of the Prince Ali song.
** Jafar may have been killed off by the start of the TV series, but the Hamjitsu was conserved by the late Jonathan Brandis as the [[DeadpanSnarker smarmy]] sorcerer [[MagnificentBastard Mozenrath]]. Who knew you could fit all that ham into a pair of [[DracoInLeatherPants leather pants?]]

* [[WesternAnimation/DuckTales Magica DeSpell]] often gets so carried away.
* '''''[[Disney/ThePrincessAndTheFrog DON'T YOU DISRESPECT ME, LITTLE MAN!]]''''' Call it part of his showman persona, or part of ''him'', Dr. Facilier knows how to [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yZAY-78zhmw chew the scenery]]
** It '''is''' him, he's a ham who tends to steal the scene he's in.
* The ''delightful'' [[Disney/PeterPan Captain Hook]], voiced by Hans Conreid, aka [[Film/The5000FingersOfDrT Doctor Terwilliger]], aka [[WesternAnimation/DudleyDoRight Snidely Whiplash]]. A connoisseur of fine ham if there ever was one.
** The [[WesternAnimation/PeterPanAndThePirates non-Disney Hook]], with a rapacious wit and a love of the Bard, is no slouch either.
* [[Disney/TheHunchbackOfNotreDame Clopin]] is a non-villainous example. Frollo was fairly conservative compared to other villains.
** Except for [[VillainSong "Hellfire"]]: "Choose me or your pyre...be mine or you...''will''...'''''BURN!!!'''''"
** [[spoiler:Frollo's final and subtly Ironic last words]]: [[TemptingFate "AND HE SHALL SMITE THE WICKED AND PLUNGE THEM INTO THE FIERY PIT!!!"]]
