    I love this movie, BECAUSE of it's dark content. Like you said, it was a huge risk for Disney to take on this project, but it is arguably the most beautiful movie they've done. Menken outdid himself with the soundtrack, the animation and character development were superb! The reason I think this movie has been pushed aside in the parks is that I wouldn't consider it a "kids" movie. So many times, we assume that "animated" = "kids." In the case of Hunchback, I feel like this was more of an art piece...a chance to see how far they could take a story. I think it's an under appreciated film. Love what you said about Hellfire...I think it's SUPPOSED to make you squirm! Thanks Sarah!

    MY FAVOURITE MOVIE, I LOVE HUNCHBACK SO MUCH!!! I wish they would bring back hunchback stuff in the parks, it's a really good movie for all of us depressed outcast, and I feel that it is a movie that helps show kids with disabilities that they can be the hero of their own story despite their physical flaws, so yeah.

    Kids can handle a little darkness. I watched this movie as a little kid, and while I obviously didn't fully understand it, I don't remember it really scaring me. As an adult it's one of my favourite Disney movies.

  • @meagsandbaconn
    @meagsandbaconn Před 8 lety +21

    It definitely surprised me to hear that the Hunchback of Notre Dame was considered to be Disney's darkest films, "Hell fire" and Frollo were the most darkest moments for me but I think I also understood what racism was at a young age. So maybe that's why I never thought of it as dark? If anything I always saw the Black Cauldron as a dark movie, absolutely terrifying at times!

    • @SarahSterling
      @SarahSterling  Před 8 lety +9

      Black Cauldron has the PG rating, so in a lot of ways it's definitely darker. But it's not really the racism that is dark to me, but like the fact that Frollo loves and hates Esmeralda and there's so much sexual undertone to it. Like....very sexual assaulty.

    • @meagsandbaconn
      @meagsandbaconn Před 8 lety +3

      imSarahSnitch Valid! I never picked up on those type of tones when I was younger so of course I would have never understood what it was about, I just knew that Quasimodo's mother was trying to escape because of her race, and of course you see what Frollo does to her as well as the other Gypsies.That's what has stood out to my memories until after watching this episode of Down to Disness.

    • @danielguizar360

      @HannahKayW Před 4 lety

      ​@@danielguizar360 The Rescuers had some pretty dark moments, little orphan girl is kidnapped and enslaved and risks her life digging around and almost drowning in a cave. It wasn't as dark as those others though

    • @faithwright4533
      @faithwright4533 Před 2 lety

      It absolutely baffles me how The Black Cauldron got a PG rating whereas Hunchback got a big G rating despite the themes of genocide, infanticide, racism, murder, and especially the sexual themes that Disney rarely touches upon, if not at all in the way Hunchback did it. Black Cauldron has nothing on this movie. The only thing consistently dark about that film is the dark and murky type of animation.

    Quasimodo does have a pretty big appearance in the Disney Dreams show in Disneyland Paris!

    • @SarahSterling

      I assume that's because he's French? Paris also has a lot of Aristocats and such - they love the characters that are from France.

  • @TheaterRaven
    @TheaterRaven Před 8 lety +8

    What? Victor Hugo's family didn't like the movie? Okay, sure, it's not exactly like the book, but first of all, there's no way every detail of the book could be squished into a 90-minute movie; secondly, this was a "children's film" and yet it got away with tons of dark elements from the book, even with the looming threat of over-sensitive parents; and thirdly, the score alone captures the story beautifully. I think they were being too strict on Disney. Hell, even Victor Hugo was willing to change the story when he wrote a libretto for an opera based on the book; he had Esmeralda be saved at the end rather than die. I'm curious to hear what Hugo's family thought of the recent Disney stage show. It still wasn't word-for-word like the book, but it was much closer to it than the film, since they didn't have to worry about a ratings system.

    • @nastasiakubrick6857
      @nastasiakubrick6857 Před 7 lety

      TheaterRaven The thing is Disney's movie is darker than the book. Frollo's obsession with damnation, Hell and death ? Frollo's purely sexual feelings towards Esmeralda ? Frollo's genocidal tendencies ? The murder of Quasimodo's mother and Frollo actually wanting to drown a baby ? The entire city of Paris burning down ? An entire race being targeted ? Sure, there were some gruesome moments in the book, but the story is simplified in a way that makes it even more fucked up, especially when it comes to Frollo's character.

    I love hunchback so much. I think what gets me most is the music. The scoring to this movie is hauntingly beautiful. I freaked out when I heard that it was becoming a musical and cried when I first listened to the cast recording. I really hope it makes its way to Broadway because the show is incredible and like I said the music is phenomenal

  • @panchish
    @panchish Před 8 lety +45

    ALSO IT HAS A VERY AWESOME MUSICAL STAGE ADAPTATION WHICH HAS VERY RICHER MUSIC AND A PLOT SOMEWHAT CLOSER TO THE BOOK AND DELETED SONGS THAT GOT BROUGHT BACK COMPLETE WITH A WONDERFUL CAST YET SO VERY STRANGELY DID NOT MAKE IT TO BROADWAY 😕 (the musical got me loving the film tbh)
    as for requests, i think maybe the fox and the hound, because why not? 😊

  • @rocky_m2
    @rocky_m2 Před 8 lety +7

    YAAAAAAS! FINALLY! One of my most fave Disney movies! I personally think that Hunchback isn't represented in the parks because there is no clear royalty character that children can identify with. I've only seen Phoebus at Disney World, but that's it. And let's face it, Frollo looks terrifying in person LOL! Thank you so much for finally doing Hunchback - one of the most underrated Disney movies ever! This was the first movie I watched without an adult. I remember feeling like an outcast in real life, and all I wanted to be was accepted. When Quasi was accepted at the end, I BAWLED my eyes out!

    Notre Dame is very gorgeous in and of itself and the movie really brings her to life. The hand drawn church is just gorgeous. This movie has wonderful music and it knew what to keep from the story and what to town down for a more general audience. It's my favorite Disney movie because it wanted to tell an artistic story and it did so. Frollo's wickedness is very memorable and it makes Quasimodo's innocence much more potent.

  • @minalovegood4060

    Hunchback of Notre Dame is my favorite Disneymovie. To bad that I always chose favorites where you have a really hard time to get something and you have mostly any chance to meet them at Disney parks but the music is so amazing and I love it so much.
    I was at Disneyland Paris when it came out and they even changed the castle.
    But Disneydreams is the only part where you can see it (and I am really happy to have that part.

    @Mel-xd4my Před 7 lety +1

    I think it is such a powerful movie. Like you said, the subjects are really heavy and that doesn't really happen so often. Also, when I was at the Notre Dame last summer it struck me that I was actually standing in a legit disney movie location, which blew my mind! It was sooo cool, it felt like the whole movie suddenly was real, most of all when I stood right at the spot where Esmeralda was standing during God Help the Outcasts :)

    The first time I ever watched this my mom and I cried because of how it showed the witch hunts so well. As a Christian witch, I always felt awful for the innocent people who were killed in such things. I was about 5, but I knew about a lot of good witches and innocent muggles who were killed during the hunts. Every samhain (Halloween to the 16th of November) I pray for those innocent people and sing "God help the outcasts". I think it sucks Disney doesn't do anything in the parks or anywhere. Great video and God bless.

    What makes this movie so SO good to me is the music. Every single song is GRAND and DEEP and BIG! I'm not sure if they ever made a broadway/stage show of the Disney adaptation, but if not they 100% SHOULD because that music was MADE to fill the airspace in a grand theatre. Can you imagine a full orchestra and ensemble performing Bells of Notre Dame? Because I can and it gives me chills.

    Festival of Fools was my all time favorite Disneyland show until Mickey and the Magical Map opened three years ago. I recently found a CZcams post of the show and fell in love with it all over again. The actors who hit that D6 still amaze me.
    The true nature of man is explored in this movie which makes this movie one of my favorites in the Disney canon. Pair the themes with "Out There," arguably one of the best numbers composed by Menken, and "Topsy Turvey" and this film shows why fans love it.
    Thanks for the great recap, Sarah! Down to Disness is my favorite spot you do! Mary Poppins should be next!

    As a mom of small kids when this came out I was uneasy in the theater. However, knowing that Disney puts a "nice" spin on their movies ie Sleeping Beauty, it was a chance for me to introduce my children to classic works. My, now adult daughter, has read ALL of the classic (and then some) as a child. One of our happy moments was when she would finish and share the differences with me between book & movie. We would talk about why changes were good/bad etc etc.

    There's this really cool little tribute in Fantasyland in Disneyland, going into the castle from I think Fronteirland to Fantasyland. There's a poster featuring Clopin and right by where you can meet the princesses across from the small theater, there's a giant music box that plays Topsy Turvy and has such a large array of Disney cameos in it. It's honestly something I love visiting each time, especially since not a lot of people know it's there and get such a kick out of it when they start to play it after they notice the box.

    I am so glad you did Hunchback because it is my favorite Disney movie of all time. It was my favorite even as a kid. I went to Disney World when I was a kid and I got to see the Hunchback of Notre Dame stage show and I just wanted to be Esmeralda after seeing that show. There was recently a stage show and there is an album for the show Alan Menken and Steven Schwatz wrote the music for the show and a lot of the songs from the Disney movie were also used in the stage show. If you haven't listened to it yet you definitely should. Michael Arden plays Quasimodo and his voice is just fantastic. There is a new song they added called Made of Stone and his vocals will just blow your mind. And Ciara Renee plays Esmeralda the both of them were just phenomenal in the show.

    The Hunchback of Notre Dame is one of my very favourite Disney movies, in huge part due to the score. It's definitely my all time favourite score (I mean really, how often do you hear Latin used in a Disney movie score), 'God Help the Outcasts' is one of my favourite songs, and I always get chills when Paul Kandel (as Clopin) hits that amazing note right at the end.

    Something to add about Hunchback - one reason for its box office performance is that by 1996 the public was just so used to disney musicals they started taking them for granted, it wasn't revolutionary anymore. Also, about the movie's representation in the parks today, I feel like this movie suffers from the current princess culture. I feel like disney movies without a princess often get ignored in the parks. it's a shame.

    Absolutely LOVE Hunchback. My fave Disney movie for sure. When I went to Disneyland Paris when the film came out the castle was decked in jesters hats a la 'feast of fools' which looked awesome. Last time I went to Disneyland Paris (last Oct) the Villains show had Frollo in it, and the Dreams show featured Quasi. Was so excited to see so much representation. 😄

    I like your channel. I am surprised that I am of few who noticed frolo's voice in Beauty and the Beast. Fun Fact: the voice actor came to audition for that part in B&B. He was so good in that one and only scene he had auditioned for, they sent him a check and used the recording of his audition for the film!
    When they needed a menacing voice for Hunchback, that's when his voice acting became truly appreciated.

    Quasimodo used to be in "The Golden Mickeys", a stage show, at Hong Kong Disneyland. The show ended its tenure upon the 10th year anniversary of HKDL.

    I watched this for the first time since I was a kid and I was like "woaaaah what?" I think you're right and they don't have them out because they don't want to introduce kids to it. Frollo was out during Halloween and there was so many people asking the host who he was!

    It's a legacy we have to cherish. A lot more people have been introduced to the Hugo classic if it weren't for Disney.

    @mmarston332 Před 7 lety

    The Disney Studio sure worked very hard to make "The Hunchback Of Notre Dame" more Disney-like. So, I say it might've been among the hardest work for the studio since 1951's "Alice In Wondland" and 1953's "Peter Pan".

  • @JonasAlmostFamous
    @JonasAlmostFamous Před 8 lety +4

    I think its interesting that the most representation of this film that we see in parks is through Frollo. The darkest character in the film is the one we see roaming the parks the most! haha
    I also think that the films that are showcased in the parks tend to be the ones that are the most iconic and successful in pop culture. Like Frozen, Toy Story, etc.
    Hunchback might be popular among us Disney Fans, but its not as popular among everyday people. I think that is why we don't see it getting very represented in the parks.

    What I love most about this movie is that the lyrics of the songs are really good! Especially 'God help the outcast'. Disney doesn't have that much songs with such a great story in it. It's also one of my favorite songs. What I do think is that they made Quasimodo a really nice person. You learn from this movie that the inside counts and that you shouldn't judge someone by it's looks! And for someone who is younger is that a great lesson.
    I'd love if you would talk about tangled or Peter Pan next time!! ☺️ xxx from holland, Vera ❤️

  • @crystalmathews7213
    @crystalmathews7213 Před 8 lety

    Yes!!! So glad u did this video!! I didn't realize how dark it was and lustful until I watched it as an adult, cuz now I get exactly what was going down! I always loved the music!! (Even if some of the lyrics are messed up "you are deformed, and you are ugly. And hell fire is creepy and sooooo intense!) And the scene with Esmeralda singing in the cathedral, it's so beautiful, so much soul! You feel for everyone.

    This movie used to scare me so much! I did not like it because of that, and have not watched it in so long... This video made me want to re-watch it, now that I am much older and will probably not get scared anymore

  • @katielafollette4203
    @katielafollette4203 Před 8 lety

    I absolutely love Hunchback!! One of my top favorite Disney films growing up in the 90's. I wish they would do more of the film in the parks like characters, merchandise etc. but I'm sure it has to do with how dark the film is

    I love how seamlessly they did the cgi, I didn't even know it was cgi! I did know that there was two voice actresses, this had so much really cool info! Love these still XD and feel so happy that I got to meet them at Disneyland since they aren't there anymore! Can't wait for next month, and I recommend maybe Tangled?

  • @aubreyallen866
    @aubreyallen866 Před 8 lety

    I would love to see you touch on 101 Dalmatians! I think there is a lot of history and richness to the "behind the scenes" aspect of that film, particularly in regards to the animation style.

  • @animatedcooper
    @animatedcooper Před 8 lety

    Yesss, I'm so glad you've done Hunchback of Notre Dame. one of my absolute favourites and it was only recently I got the book Art of the Hunchback of Notre Dame which is so awesome as it has all the concept art. While it's not my absolute favourite (that goes to Hercules) Hunchback has a special place in my heart. Great video as always.

  • @JustJay
    @JustJay Před 8 lety

    Yes!!!! I was definitely one of those people that kept asking for Hunchback of Notre Dame, so I'm really glad that you were able to do it this month! Yay! :D This is the movie that I never really paid attention to as a kid. Like I enjoyed it, but I could never compare it to my beloved princess movies. But now that I'm older? It's definitely at the top of my list. ^_^ The movie is so dark, the characters are so complex, and the music is AMAZING. I always recommend this movie to people who aren't big fans of Disney movies because, as you said, it's one of the darker films that they've ever created. But I love it.

    LOVE this film, definitely in my top 5! Esmeralda is an amazing female charecter. She would totally be a role model to everyone still this day of Disney appreciated this film a little more. It makes me so sad that the parks literally have next to nothing of it. Especially WDW... After the stage show left the parks basically had nothing
