~ Calamitous |
Professor Finbarr Calamitous is the main antagonist of Nickelodeon's Jimmy Neutron franchise.
He is a mad scientist that desires to conquer the world, bringing him into conflict with Jimmy Neutron and his friends on multiple occasions. Despite his ambitions, he is known for his peculiar quirk of apparently never being able to finish anything, from sentences to his own inventions. He is one of the two archnemeses (alongside King Goobot) of Jimmy Neutron. He is also the father of Beautiful Gorgeous, and the former student of Ms. Fowl.
He was voiced by Tim Curry, who also played Frank-N-Furter in The Rocky Horror Picture Show, Pennywise in the It television miniseries, Wadsworth in Clue, Thaddeus E. Klang in TaleSpin, Taurus Bulba in Darkwing Duck, and Hexxus in FernGully: The Last Rainforest.
Personality[]
While incredibly cunning and completely ruthless, Calamitous (much like stereotypical evil geniuses) can also be oblivious and absent-minded. His problem of forgetting things is always used to the heroes' advantage, and while he did go through shock therapy to cure himself, his problem somehow came back during the events of Nicktoons Unite!, as his defeat was because he forgot to make the Doomsday Machine with solar panels instead of plugs, which were turned off by SpongeBob. While he does love his daughter, Beautiful Gorgeous, he is always trying to get her to be evil like him, instead of just letting her do it her way, which creates some conflict between the two.
Appearance[]
Calamitous much like many stereotypical mad scientists are aging males who have gray hair, In Calamitous' case however he is bald but has a gray mustache and eyebrows. Calamitous like many mad scientists wear a white lab coat and black gloves and lab goggles unlike many mad scientists however is very small in size and one of the shortest characters of the show and is a bit smaller than Jimmy Neutron (his archrival) himself.
Games[]
He appears in the crossover game Nicktoons Unite! where he formed The Evil Syndicate with Plankton, Mr. Crocker, and Vlad Plasmius. He copied Jimmy's latest invention called the Universe Portal Machine. During the game, he spies on the heroes using a flea-bot he planted on Goddard with Jimmy eventually finding out about this and hacks it to find his lair. The group plan on ruling the world using a doomsday machine they created with the heroes eventually defating them and Calamitous goes to prison.
