    This was a fun and unexpected twist to the movie. Hercules is one of my favorite Disney movies, and I like the darker tone you've added to it. I like how Zeus's traits were more like his clash of the titans counterpart not having all of the gods being related was a nice touch. I also liked the daughter of Hades as she was just as or even more helpful than Meg.

    i really enjoyed this. Persephone made for a good Meg replacement. I definitely think you could've had Phil in there, probably as one of the ghost comedic side characters. I think maybe a minor thing I could see to have some of the Disney humor for that era would be having a few ghost characters that both Hercules and Persephone have met and are on good terms with. For that whole ghosts rally around them scene when they're all chaotic and disorganized, maybe the ghost eyes could be weird zombie colors and when Persephone turns on rally mode and have some recognition, they say something like yo, that's our good buddies. And maybe make some kind of Avengers/football style line saying like what's the play capt'n? and you mix some of the serious fight scene bit with some of the humor w/o taking too much of the overall tone away.
    I liked the mixing Herculues and Orpheus mechanic tying him to the underworld. Also I think he and Persephone make a great pair with a relationship that builds overtime. Glad I got to see this as a version here on fanscription. I know its unlikely to become something official, so I'm glad y'all at channel awesome got to make it in this form.
    Great job

      I guess you could put this as one if those Disney alterations or something. Since in the original movie they made Hera Hercules' biological Mom.
      But thank you. That slipped my mind.
      I still think this is a good character and the whole custody kid aspect I think works as a new dynamic for Persphone if that's the direction they wanted to go instead of with the original mythology source material and all that.

      Persephone actually reminded me a lot of Meg, so I agree there. I think had this version been the actual Disney canon and Meg didn’t exist, Susan Egan would still be a fitting voice for Persephone too. I know in the myths Persephone x Hades are the couple, and Demeter is still her mother, but I think for an AU concept like fanscription, having Hades x Demeter being a divorced couple and Persephone as their daughter, and still having her spend time in the underworld still be intact (just for a different reason, and moreso one that’s out of her control than something she volunteered for) is still an interesting spin for a hypothetical Disney movie AU for Hercules. Plus Disney already has a a much older animation of the story of Hades x Persephone.

    You guys should write an Atlantis one where Milo is chosen instead of Kida. Maybe have his grandfather be a royal atlantean from a neighboring kingdom. Maybe he found a way to the surface and wanted to explore. However as the years pass, he began to loose his memory of where Atlantis was. So he gave up his immortality, got married, had a son, got a grandson and began to try to find Atlantis.

      I personally think it's out of character for Hades to be PURELY evil as the majority of his motivation for being an ass was his resentment of his brother instead of just being evil for the sake of evil.
      That being said, seeing a more sadistic Hades would interesting. Though then I suppose he would be too similar to Scar from the Lion King as he's pretty much Hades but more evil.

    Had Persephone not come, I imagine what that ending going a little something like this;
    Hercules is killed by Hera with the dagger, and Hades begins to take out the other Olympians.
    Athena looks to Ares with a knowing node, as the sister strikes Hades only for her to be killed. Ares is hit as Hades laughs.
    The God of War looks to his uncle and scoffs, claiming that though Hercules is dead, there is still one last Demi-god more powerful, ruthless, and deadly than any before him.
    Hades smirks and claims Ares is bluffing, but Ares simply says that this last son of Zeus left him and served Athena for a time, but that now it was time for Hades to face Ares’ monster.
    Hades, becoming tired of the chit-chatter, simply states that he can deal with some big scary monster, but at the end of the day, he’s the real deal.
    In his last breath, Ares looks to Hades and simply says “You don’t know what a true monster is, Hades”.
    With the opposing Gods dead, Hades and Hera decide their next move to renovate Olympus, but suddenly a large tremor radiates throughout the mountain.
    Hade’s servants arrive scared and terrified, telling the god that someone freed the Titans from Tartarus. Another quake, and Hades looks down to see the titans climbing up the mountain.
    On the leading head, stands a lone warrior. Chains wrapped around his arms, the red tattoo on his body being his most recognizable trait. His face, a look of sheer rage and determination.
    Hades froze. He had seen that face before, but he never believed him to be a son of Zeus. To undermine Ares’ words was a grave mistake, as now Hades must face the combined might of the titans, lead by none other than the infamous Ghost of Sparta…

    I'm always intrigued by these Disney Elseworlds fanscription videos. I just recently discovered Disney had a series of books similar to these called Twisted Tales, which reimagine classic Disney stories but adds the whole "What if" premise to them. For example, "Part of Your World" reimagines "The Little Mermaid" with the premise of what if Ursula had successfully married Eric and set about conquering the land and sea. Then there's "Straight on Till Morning" which reimagines "Peter Pan" as an older Wendy having never met Peter in her youth going to Neverland for the first time with Captain Hook.
    Personally, I would like to see something done with "Beauty and the Beast." I was watching the live-action remake with my girlfriend a while back and I was compelled by the character of Gaston. Mainly it was because I like a lot of Luke Evans' work. But he was always an intriguing character in both the original and the live-action remake. He was essentially what the Beast/Prince Adam once was and what he would've remained as had he not been cursed: vain, arrogant and self-centered. So I posed the question to her: What if Gaston survived but was cursed by the Enchantress to become a beast himself? She found that to be both an exciting concept and an exciting challenge. After all, how do you redeem what is considered an irredeemable character?

    Interesting. As it's a Disney, the introduction could remain in gospel. I also believe in the possibility of placing a song of the villain (which is missing in the original Disney Hercules). There are two opportunities for this, at the very beginning when he raises/attempts to kill Hercules, I have the song "What am I going to do with you?". We could go over all the kills that don't work, kind of cartoonishly. Where the conclusion would be: "If I can't destroy you physically, I'll do it mentally. Yes! You'll replace me here! Oh, Zeus would hate that! This is awesome! I am awesome!".
    Or when your Hades raises an army of the dead. Probably with a dance bit where he imitates Michael Jackson in Thriller.

    One thing could've made an interesting story is Herc maybe conflicted over his two halves. Like, the power and authority to stop everything and take over was only something available to an actual god, not a half-god Hero. Loving his mother, he's worried whether letting his human side be burned away (either through Persephone's underworld fire or perhaps by gaining some ambrosia) would sever his connection to her, but at the same time keeping that side would make him unable to rule or properly use the powers he needs to stop Zeus and Hades.

In the beginning of the song, she states that she killed Hades somehow. How she kills him in your fanscription could be that you could bring in other mythologies, like maybe roman or aztec. Maybe those gods created weapons or even poison that could kill themselves and other gods. Maybe meg tricks hades by using these weapons or poison against him, thereby killing him and then torturing his soul afterward. Either that, or she could trick hades into a deal that makes him lose his powers and makes him mortal, then she kills him.

Though, they would be sequels that have to be based on the books that you guys should read, which would take you guys a much longer time to make videos about them than the ones you're already making, but here they are:
    1.- What if Walt Disney made an animated "Alice through the looking glass" movie? It would be released in the mid or late 50's.
    2.- What if Walt Disney made a "Bambi's Children" movie? But it has to be released in the late 2000's or early 2010's, since there is no third book of the series and Disney already made Bambi 2, so this one would be the Bambi 3 movie.
    3.- What if Walt Disney made an animated "The second jungle book" movie? It would be released sometime in the 70's.
    4.- What if Walt Disney made an animated "The starlight barking (101 Dalmatians 2 book)" movie? But it has to be released in the late 2000's or early 2010's, since there is no third book of the series and Disney already made a 101 Dalmatians 2 movie, so this one would be the third movie.

    I miss megara far less than I was expecting to in this story. Persephone is a great love interest in this movie. That being said, I personally would have added some extra irony to the story by having Meg be one of the people who lived on the farm that the old man killed out of jealousy. Mad sells her soul can Katie's to save her farmer boyfriend from starvation, and he runs off with some babe. She is now stuck in tartarus, presumably until Hercules saves her that. Actually Persephone was fine the way it was. I also thought it would have been better if Orpheus is the main character, so I probably don't know what I'm talking about. Just fun suggesting some things.
