~ Fusilli |
The "Great Fusilli", or better known as Fusilli, is an anthropomorphic alligator who serves as an antagonist in Courage the Cowardly Dog. Fusilli made his first and only appearance as the main antagonist in his eponymous season one episode "The Great Fusilli".
He has a thick Italian accent (parodying other stereotypical magicians) and owns a traveling theater which he uses to search for potential "stars" to induct into his troupe, luring them in with the prospects of fame and fortune. Once his victims are snagged, Fusilli literally turns them into puppets that he can control via enchanted puppet strings, forcing them to perform on the stage for his own amusement.
He was voiced by Jim Cummings, who also voiced NegaDuck in Darkwing Duck, Dr. Robotnik in Sonic SatAM,Steele in Balto, Rasputin's singing voice in Anastasia, Jacques in Scooby-Doo on Zombie Island, Scar in The Lion King II: Simba's Pride, Budzo in Zambezia and Hadrian in Minecraft: Story Mode.
What Makes Him Pure Evil?[]
- He would lure multiple innocents onto his stage where he would have them turned into puppets. This would kill them or leave them in a fate worse than death where they couldn't move, talk, or do absolutely anything, and he did this purely for his own entertainment. When Courage entered a room in Fusilli's place, he saw at least a dozen puppets, which shows that Fusilli has been doing this for a long time.
- Fusilli ended up turning Muriel and Eustace into puppets by the end of the episode. This marks a moment where Eustace and Muriel died in an episode and were left dead by the end of it, though the show's negative continuity inexplicably undoes the outcome in the next episode.
- However, his other victims weren't part of the show's negative continuity.
- He makes Muriel and Eustace's dead puppet bodies fight each other for his own amusement.
- While his defeat of being turned into a puppet and rephrasing “How now brown cow” is some how comedic it doesn’t detract too much since it’s played with bit of horror.
