Dr. Erwin Armstrong (The Boss Baby: Family Business)

Dr. Armstrong is the main antagonist of The Boss Baby: Family Business. He is the founder of The Acorn Center (Tabitha's school) but in real he is a scheming and smart baby who plans to get rid of parents and rules.

Why He Sucks

 * 1) To get the baby out of the crib, He is a very boring and generic villain that only cares about his reputation, doesn't want anybody making him look like a fool, doesn't want parents to boss and telling babies what to do.
 * 2) His goal to get rid of adults all around the world using their phone apps and making babies take over the world is completely nonsensical for a DreamWorks villain, even by DreamWorks Animation standards for many reason above:
 * 3) * First off, there are hazards all over the world that babies can get injured or even killed, they could even die from neglect due to the lack of their parents support.
 * 4) * Second, if babies take over the world, they’re soon age up to adults with troublemaking skills and lack of intelligence due to the lack of knowledge and support from the adults.
 * 5) * Third, if he teaches children (including babies) at his school, then why does he only wanting babies to turn bad by getting rid of their parents, when the children at his school also have parents to be supportive and yet he doesn’t do anything with the children after their parents were brainwashed by their phones through an app he created which just goes to show how hypocritical Dr Armstrong is. Sound familiar?
 * 6) * If anything, he feels more like a rejected Saturday morning TV cartoon villain than an actual DreamWorks Animation movie villain.
 * 7) The climax between the Templeton children and him is just an lazy rehash of the climax from Penguins of Madagascar, only with humans and had more filler than that climax, the only reason why the climax was so dragged out is just serves as an attempt for the writers to make him a powerful villain that could surpass other way better DreamWorks villains like Drago and Lord Shen.
 * 8) He’s basically a bootleg copy of Professor Poopypants from Captain Underpants since both characters are intelligent teachers who wants to get rid of something around the world (laughter and adults), expect without the charm that makes Poopypants a great villain.
 * 9) He’s also shown to be cringeworthy as well, such as the scene where he, in his baby form, dancing with the brainwashed adults at the play before attacking the Templeton children.
 * 10) His backstory on why he doesn’t want parents to be in his way is very cliched and stupid, as he runs away from home just because he’s more smarter than his parents, even though he’s still a baby, if so, then police could’ve find him and take him back to his parents under house arrest.
 * 11) The plot-twist where he is actually a baby who doesn’t age the entire time is very poorly executed and weak, especially considering his nonsensical backstory and goal, in fact, the plot twist could’ve been better if it was more fleshed out if it weren’t for the backstory and goal.
 * 12) Overall he’s considered a generic doomsday villain due to all these reasons above, even more than Francis E Francis from the first movie.
 * 13) He once committed animal abuse as he was throwing Precious, a pony out of his school calling him a dog and cat during the climax.
 * 14) His baby form is a bit ugly and uncanny in comparison to his robot adult design and the other characters.
 * 15) Aside from getting punished by Tina, He most of the time never gets any comeuppance for his actions, most notably for brainwashing the adults, making his redemption very rushed and weak.

Redeeming Qualities

 * 1) He does run a nice school called the Acorn Centre.
 * 2) Jeff Goldblum does a good job voicing him.
 * 3) Despite getting off Scott free for his actions, the scene where he reunites with his parents is heartwarming.
