P.S.: The Most Interesting Witch Character
List page: https://www.imdb.com/list/ls082571647/
poll page:????
When I had finally watched Disney’s live action version of Mulan (2020), a movie I was highly expecting to see but the CoVid lockdowns temporarily shuttered the cinemas down, it presented a brand new extremely powerful Merlin/Gandalf level witch named Xianniang (or Xian Lang), and is extremely interesting because she is not entirely evil and seeks acceptance. So. This character renews the old question, “Who is the most powerful witch (or, at least, your favorite witch)?” Well which one is it?
(And yes, I did use the IMDb’s Our Favorite On-Screen Witches to make this list.)
To talk about this list, gather around the cauldron here, which, if you had noticed, in the movies, it seams that witches very rarely use them.
Oh, the witches are definitely human or humanoid, with learned powers. No mutants, genies, goddesses, or voodoo priestesses who later revealed themselves as a goddesses.

Please consider what they can do in selections.
some of the seeker ones can be replaced. I don’t think Mary is all that powerful. Elaine Zacharides from the original “13 Ghosts” is not that well known even though Margret Hamilton’s performance of her is a standout performance in the film.

I can’t believe I forgot Bianca de Posse (Hermione Gingold) from Bell, Book, and Candle (1958)! Even though she is a supporting character in a subplot in that play/film, she was the grand witch that could break the others’s spells.
now the problem with Elsa from Frozen. According to the original fairytale that Frozen was based on, “The Snow Queen”, the snow Queen was a witch. But in frozen you never see Elsa learning magic. She always had powers. In Frozen 2, her character was changed into a being as a bridge between humans and the spirits. So is she a human or mutant?

Breumaster suggested a similar idea a few days ago:

Perhaps you could consider working together on one list. Otherwise you can try to make sure your poll is different from his.
