King Edward I of England is the main antagonist of the 1995 Mel Gibson-directed film, Braveheart. He was nicknamed "Longshanks" for his height over 6 feet. He was the twenty-fourth king of England.

He was portrayed by the late Patrick McGoohan.

What Makes Him a Hate Sink?[]

  • Ordered the slaughter of all several Scots Nobles after the conquest of Scotland.
  • His Conquest of Scotland gets most of William Wallace's family death when he was just a boy.
  • While stating that "The trouble with Scotland is that it's full of Scots." And in order to fix the problem of having rebels he re-allows the Prima Nocta law in Scotland to appeal to English Nobles in order to produce Loyal Nobles to the English Crown. In other words, he is legalizing rape in order to get loyal followers.
  • Burned down several Scottish villages during his Conquest and During Wallace's Rebellion as a warning.
  • Never truly loved his own son, constantly abusing him for his mistakes and viewing him as a failed continuation of his legacy and an incompetent pathetic punching bag at worst.
  • Heavily implied to be homophobic, which at the time was very common point of view (The Movie is set in Medieval Ages and LGBT views were absolutely frowned and condemned upon.) But nowadays is seen as wrong.
  • Threw his son's lover Philip out of a window simply because he dared to speak to him as an advisor (It's been implied he killed him because of his possible homosexuality or the fact that he thought of him as a liability who didn't contribute to the War).
  • Sent his daughter-in-law as a political tool instead of his son, in order to treat with Wallace and buy him off to stop the rebellion, with high possibility of her being murdered. While this could be shown as a caring act of worry towards his son, it is a pragmatic act as he says "Who can I send? Not I, for if I were to fall under the sword of that murderer it might be my head in a basket. And not my... gentle son, for the bare sight of him would only encourage an enemy to take over the whole country."
  • Also, he does it with hopes of his Rival the King of France to join him in the War against Wallace.
  • Had archers fire arrows on the Scottish forces while his own men were still in the line of fire, justifying it by claiming that they are expendable, and they have reserves.
  • At the end of the movie, he has Wallace hanged, drawn and quartered, which is a brutal medieval execution method.
