He's being forced to watch all the horrible Disney sequels plus The Last Airbender. And my little pony G3. And let's not forget the worst SpongeBob episodes and repeatedly watching the toenail scene 50 times.
When Frollo died, he decided to take all the quality, animation, talent, logic out of the series as a curse if Disney ever tried to create a sequel. Or Disney was extremely lazy and wanted to make a cash in.
doesnt really work even. quasimodo is deformed and ugly. the bell has a normal shape and is beautiful. quasi is probably the most able man in the whole town,while the bell is probably the least prefered to be rung(assuming they actually get it to work,ringing it has to damage the jewelry inside,right?)
Frollo- a dark, evil, and murderous man who threatens to burn down all of Paris in an attempt to kill all of the Gypsies. When he gets Esmeralda, he forces her to choose him or to be burned in the bonfire. After Quasimodo saved her several times, Frollo went against the church to not only kill Esmeralda, but his own "son," Quasimodo. He is one of Disney's greatest villains because of these qualities. He's one of the greatest villains, period. Sarousch- a vain, self attracted, cowardly ringmaster who's goal is to steal Quasimodo's most beautiful bell, La Fidele. He is fat and balding, but fixes himself up before performances. Despite his aging, he loves to talk about how he would kiss himself, but would then fall in love if he did so. He would be a good villain for a fifteen minute cartoon, but instead, he was thrown into one that goes on for an hour and a half. When you compare Sarousch to Frollo, Sarousch is an absolute joke. It makes you wonder how he was even CONSIDERED to replace Frollo.
Phoebus's appearance in this movie was really botched. I think they wanted to have some kind of moral about how wrong petty discrimination is, but it didn't work since Phoebus was right about the carnies being thieves.
yeah,the only part that works is that one singular member was okay. the rest was pretty shit tho. its like the studio just looked as the first movie and thought:"oh,cool. phoebus was the only one in his groop to be trusted. lets do that!". what they didnt understand is that context is key. everyone working for frollo was technicly dutybound and maybe just didnt want to loose their job. there almost being no clean carnies and none of the no good-carnies turning around even slightly is just unrealistic and makes them bastards for being random thiefs while having a running profession.(they could either get a better job or fuck off)
Also it makes literally no sense because he helped and fell in love with a gypsy in the first movie. You know, an extremely discriminated against group in that universe.
Imo Disney deliberately tried making Phoebus look like an iffy character because a lot of people were really disappointed Esmerelda ended up with him instead of Quasi in the first movie, its one of the biggest complaints it got, hence why the sequel was so focused on giving Quasi his own girlfriend. The whole moral could’ve been easy to pan out if they didn’t make Phoebus look a douche all of a sudden because he compared the circus folk to the Romani. Maybe if Saruge was confirmed to be a Romani man who took advantage of their bad reputation and he justified his actions and greed for how his family and community was treated by the French or something, showing just because one Romani man was a thief and con artist doesn’t mean all of them are like that
buck wade Caanan It does have a kind of different studio and a lower budget. Most of the massive amount of sequels were made by the toon disney animators and writers who did the tv shows. That's why the story is fucking stupid and the animation is ultra shit.

Triggers include but likely will not be limited to class oppression, culling culture and violence against grubs, lusus abuse, complementary and analogous hate speech, pail filling, slurries and other concupiscent fluids, lifespan shaming, ableist slurs, prolix dissertation… Actually, maybe it would be easier for you to list your triggers, and I’ll do my best to avoid those topics, or navigate them more delicately, if at all possible? #TW #oppression #culling #grubviolence #lususabuse #hemophobia #pails #slurries #ableism [Karkat Vantas] ........ [Kankri] Great. It sounds like you don’t have any triggers, at least none that you know about. I’ll proceed with caution nevertheless. Just please let me know if you start feeling triggered by anything I’m saying, and we can take a brief time-out while you summon your moirail to help pacify you, assuming you have one. Not that I’m presuming you do, But I heard that you did, is that correct? If not, I apologize. I further apologize if your orientation precludes the possibility, as a pale aromantic, panquadrant demiromantic, something in the gray palesexual department or such, and hopefully you are not triggered by such presumptuous concillianormative language. It wouldn’t be the first time I was guilty of such an inexcusable microaggression, and I am not so oblivious to my own romantic privilege to believe it will be the last time either. #concillianormativity #microaggressions #romprivilege #presumptuous #moirails #inexcusable I’m glad I brought up the subject of unexamined privilege, because it dovetails beautifully with the point I was about to make regarding beforan society and its savage umbral potentiality which later manifested through the kind of Alternian brutality you are all too familiar with. Those in the higher echelons of the hemospectrum such as the ceruleans, or “blue bloods” (careful, being loose with such terminology is opening the floodgates to a whole host of toxic signist language and hemophobic slurs), when addressing the challenges faced by those lower on the spectrum, such as the midhues or in particular warm castes like umbers, ochres, or “rust bloods” (another slur, highly problematic, deeply offensive and triggering terminology, strongly imploring you steer clear of this term), they would be well advised to check their cerulean privilege, particularly before dismissing hardships or marginalizing claims of oppression, which can be difficult for them to identify or empathize with from their advantageous position within the beforan//Alternian power structures. #dovetail #problematic #powerstructures #toxicsignistlanguage And some may argue that in our peaceful “utopian” culture that we have freed ourselves from injustice and disparities in privilege in a post-scarcity economy, largely equal rights distributed across the hemospectrum, and therefore exist in a “post-spectral world” (laugh out loud), and therefore there is no need to champion important social causes and there is nothing left to debate, but really nothing could be further from the truth. You just need to educate yourself and carefully investigate the longstanding power dynamics in play. For instance, a seemingly “harmless” remark from a cisblooded cerulean toward an umber or God forbid a burgundy or yes even a warm-identifying physically-cooler caste, about their very long term future plans such as on the order of centuries, then this may prove to be a very hurtful microagression due to the fact that lowhues cannot possibly live that long themselves, and the more priviliged caste could easily outlive dozens of generations of midhues or hundreds of generations of bUoYs (burgundy-umber-ochre-yellowgreens, note please avoid describing the lattermost as “lime bloods” as it has historically been used as an especially vicious epithet). Such remarks can further trigger painful reminders of how cooler castes, to some extent oJAs, but CIPs and Royal-Vs in particular, have been able to use their tremendous lifespans over the millenia to gain a stranglehold over the social order, have been able to completely dictate our societal evolution by ensuring only their cultural agendas and narratives receive the dialogue’s air supply, assuring the codification of those resultant ideals and deciding what “normalcy” entails, and sadly these absolutes become internalized across the full spectral range, even within those of most compromised privilege, and so you begin to see the cyclical nature of the dysfunction and the resulting inertia against positive change and raising awareness of the most underproblematized issues, which I think we can agree, is pretty problematic. #postspectralworld #lol #bUoYs #oJAs #CIPs #RoyalVs #narratives #agendas #narratives #lifespanprivilege #dysfunction #aweness #agendas KANKRI: And really, it’s everyone’s business to examine their privilege, even burgundies, who may be subject to the pitfall of believing incorrectly there are none on the scale beneath them whom they enjoy certain privileges over, which off-spectrum trolls will never know, such as those identifying as otherbloods or caste-multiples, “polyblooded”, any who hemoglobically ID as having a caste which manifests nowhere (as yet known) in anyone physically, or for that matter offspecs who physically do possess such a blood type, or “mutants” (VERY problematic term, highly triggering to some, be warned), such as you and I, Karkat. but this puts us both in a situation which to our knowledge uniquely allows us to understand and empathize with tragically underprivileged and unempowered groups across all scuttles of life, thus affording us both what I like to call a “uniquely underprivileged privilege”, which, yes, is a kind of privilege we should both strive to check as well, whenever we can. This same uniquely underprivileged perspective as I’m sure you know was disadvantaged upon my post-scratch iteration as well, and while I have no doubt you justifiably came to revere that figure of your planet’s rich history and your personal lineage, and while his goals of peace, equality, and a truly spectrablind society, I’m afraid I personally have trouble condoning his methods. I don’t like to use the term “problematic” lightly, but, well, his tactics were nothing if not massively problematic, to say the least, employing violent uprising to effect change, and emblazoning his mark upon history and his faithful followers with the salty flourish of a single rude, shouted swear word, it’s not to my taste even though he is who I would have grown up to be in another life. but no, I prefer to effect social change through rational, honest discourse and contributing to ongoing dialogues, focusing on what should be the real goals, through keen adherence to the discipline of Problematics, ensuring that we stay focused on successfully problematizing a wide range of direly undercomplicated social dilemmas. #undercomplication #saltyflourish #rudeshoutedswearword #spectrablindsociety #dilemmas #goals #Problematics #dilemmas It’s nice to see we agree on so much. Maybe we are not so unalike, despite our drastically different upbringings. Anyway, as I was saying, the story of your ancestor, and more importantly my exhaustive list of misgivings with his approach to social change, is quite a long and elaborate one, but it actually fits brilliantly within the larger mosaic which captures the broad strokes of my post. I mean our discussion. Trigger warnings for the following content include: ancestor bashing, faith shaming, loud swearing, torture, burn wounds, ship sinking… again, seriously, just let me know if you begin to feel triggered by anything, even slightly. We’ll pause and see if we can really explore those issues, and identify exactly how I may have invalidated your struggles. Without further ado, the story is as follows: #TW #ancestorbashing #shaming #swearing #torture #burns #shipsinking #struggles #invalidation #misgivings
+Catalina Rose But Victor Hugo should have hated the first one, because it was nothing like his story. It was a great movie in its own right, but as an adaption, it was VERY sanitized.
Honestly the bell being beautiful on the inside would be more meaningful if the bell wasn't bejeweled and just sounded the best. Showing beauty as something like jewels kind of backfires on the message
Michael Maximus How am I nitpicking? I didn't say, "The book is bad and it's all because of this one minor detail." I was just throwing that out there because it related to the OP's comment. Unless you mean the tone of the comment. I was trying to make it sound mundane, like what happened was no big deal just as a joke. Sorry if that wasn't clear.
Okay, Esmeralda is now the wife of the captain of the city guard right? So why is she still running around barefoot and(by Medieval standards) half naked? At the very least she should be wearing shoes, a costlier/more modest dress and her hair up/braided (or a sort of haddress as it was custom for married women back then) And she should definitely not dance for coins anymore. If Phoebus can afford freaking gold covered armour he can afford a pair of shoes for his wife, I hope.
+janeyrevanescence12 Now that you mention it, I actually seem to remember her wearing green shoes, maybe? Still she should be dressed way better as the wife of the captain of the guard.
In Esmeralda's defense (because the movie sucks), I think it's kind of a gypsy thing. I wouldn't know very well but I can say for the clothing/shoe thing, it's true for that because the clothing is traditional and the shoes well...it's kind of a thing I've seen around before. And hell, maybe she just likes dancing. Come on! Just because she's married doesn't mean she has to change her entire personality, clothing and hobbies :/ -The only thing that changed was her eye color-
"Why are Esmeralda's eyes blue? They were *green* in the first movie! And *deep* green at that!" Not to mention her name means "Emerald"! That's not why she was called that in the book, but it still should've been a helpful reminder for whoever was in charge of continuity checks.
Why is Phoebus still wearing his armor? Didn't he give up being Captain in the first movie? And how is he not in prison? I mean, they won at the end of the first movie, but all they did was overthrow Judge Frollo. You'd think the King of France would have been notified of a peasant revolt in Paris and Phoebus would have been arrested and most likely beheaded, or he would at least be in hiding, and certainly not still be Captain of the guards he plainly betrayed in the first movie.
he was actually fired by frollo i think.with him being gone,he just took the job back.....that the king should have given a fuck is a good point however,i wonder why he didnt
Not to mention the fact that he married Esmeralda, and they both are still in their respective social classes. I mean, really? 15th centuary, and it was possible for Phoebus to marry a gypsy lady, and STILL remaining a well-respected part of the society? Same goes with Esmeralda. She is still a gypsy, after being wed to a captain of a ROYAL GUARD?! Tf.
Because kids are stupid and wouldn't recognize him if they changed his appearance from the original movie. Don't you remember the confusion induced riots that ensued when Aladdin dressed as a prince.
the hunchback of notre dame, the secret of nimh.... parents complain how dark and scary these films are and traumatize children so the directors decide to make child-friendly, brainless shit sequels with no depth and no impression. which one is better for kids: dark films, that teach about love, courage and open-mindedness and have interesting, strong characters or light-hearted family films, where heroes are whining bitches and ignorant assholes and the moral of the story is blank?
Took the words right out of my mouth. I watched the original when I was three, three!, and was perfectly fine afterwards. Hell I think its why I'm the person I am today. It and the Lion King are the top two of my favorite Disney Renaissance movies. The Lion King 2 is my favorite of the sequels, 1 1/2 was meh to me, but this, this just is terrible compared to the original. And I hate flaunting my nostalgia around when it comes to matters like this but this is really a bad sequel that has no business existing. The animation is way off from the original, even TLK2 and all of the Stitch movies kept to their original art style better than this.
Kira the Cat Ah I remember the first time I watched the second movie....., the animation change made my jaw hit the floor . What the hell man it looks like it was made in Bug's bunny's golden years
The sad part is that this was a good concept. I liked the idea of Quasimodo getting a girl, I liked the idea of her having Quasi's opposite problem. Quasi being shunned for being ugly, no one taking her seriously because they think she's just a pretty face, and thus neither of them are looked at as people, just judged on their looks. But god, this is AWFUL!
I can appreciate a bejeweled bell if it's made for the intention of simply being something to admire, like a statue, painting, or any piece of fine art. But why is it in the bell tower where NO ONE will be able to see it? So the villain steals the bell, and..... now what? Where's he supposed to put it? Does he have a bell-tower-sized cart in his travelling circus in which he can proudly put it on display atop his coffee table? Wouldn't his possession of something that conspicuous be a little OBVIOUS to the authorities scouring the countryside in their attempts to retrieve it? Or was the idea for this incredibly vain character to NOT show off one of the most opulent relics in all of France? Sure, Madeline's cute, but Esmeralda she ain't.
ultraofrahfan1 I know they were almost too subtle I mean my god plain on the outside and beautiful on the inside of course as stated the only purpose it could server is as art/attraction so why was it hidden away in the tower. Cause ringing it ain’t a logical option.
Yo, Bobsheaux! Please give AniMat, Cartoon Palooza and Jambareeqi paid Patreon requests/votes that are to review and go full rage on The Hunchback of Notre Dame II and many other horrible animated sequels they never reviewed yet.
I am theorizing that Dante's missing tenth layer of Hell is being forced to sit through all the animated Hunchback knockoffs back-to-back, by Goodtimes, UAV Entertainment, Golden Films, 90's Burbank, and finally ending with Dingo pictures. (If you want to know what I am talking about, look up the reviews by Phelous. Some of them seriously make Disney's "The Hunchback of Notre Dame II" look good). This would no doubt come before the eleventh layer that Nostalgia Critic personally discovered, involving the boy shoving grapes in his nose and constantly shouting "Bloopity! Bloopity! Bloopity!" I don't blame Dante for finding them too horrifying for readers to comprehend and not writing about them.
In the first movie, Esmeralda demonstrated having her wits about her, able to (among other things) outmaneuver 10 soldiers going after her. In this she's utterly useless and hopes for her dopey husband to fix things.
@@Grimmheim You know the first movie? The gypsy woman at the beginning. I think it's Esmeralda. Everyone thinks she died. But not to me. I think she's supposed to be 35 in the first movie. That would make her 15 at the beginning. Clopin also tells the audience to solve the riddle. Maybe his mother survived and it's Esmeralda? Just saying. Interesting theory, huh🙂
@@sofiastern8218 Dude... Quasimodo's mother was WAAAY older than Esmeralda. And there is no proof that she is alive or that she could be Esmeralda. And it would be really f*cked up that Quasimodo fell in love with HIS OWN MOTHER.
Same with Pocahontas 2. I know a lot of people would say Mulan 2 as well, but at least that one had some good qualities about it. I don’t hate this sequel nearly as much as everyone else, but don’t get me wrong its one of the most terrible. But I’m more disappointed than anything. Every single character from the original movie got crapped on and are more stupid and ignorant in this movie. One of the most aggravating aspects is the mere fact the gargoyles are not only more annoying, but they get a lot more screentime than Esmerelda herself. Even Phoebus and Zephyr appear more than her, and she’s so cranky in this movie. And Quasi went from being an adorkable character just wanting to fit in to being a bumbling idiot who gets tongue tied around “hot” girls. Even Clopin himself is a shadow of his former self, a random narrator that isn’t really interested in the plot and for whatever stupid reason doesn’t have his cute little puppet of himself anymore
At first I was thinking maybe you're being a little harsh. The second movie wasn't as good as the first, but it wasn't that bad. I decided to watch the first movie again because it has been a few years since I've seen it. The first song gave me goosebumps and I was welling up with tears of joy by the time they showed the title (no exaggeration). You were right this movie is garbage. My apologies for doubting you.
Personally, I've always liked Cinderella 3 and the last segment of Cinderella 2 just because of how they fleshed out and humanized Anastasia. She's one of my favorite Disney characters because of those movies. That being said, I try to forget that Hunchback of Notre Dame 2 even exists. It's better for the sake of my mental health. Also hated Lady and the Tramp 2.
How can DisneyToon Studios show us some beautiful animation in The Lion King 2 from 1998, but then make horrendous animation in Hunchback 2 from 2002?!
I've always thought that people who complain that Quasi didn't get the girl in the first movie are missing two important facts 1) Quasi wanted to be free and accepted in the first movie, and he got it. He was willing to let Esmeralda go, because he loved her, making the man and Frollo the monster. 2) Phoebus also loved Esmeralda and helped her, too. Esmeralda isn't a prize, after all and Quasi was happy because Esmeralda could be happy.
i love how everybody's skintones randomly and radically fluctuate... like sometimes quasimodo is literally glowing white and sometimes esmerelda looks like phoebus in the shade, and then there's the moments where madeline becomes gargoyle gray... its incredible.
The name of Esmeralda comes from the fact that her eyes are green like esmeralds. And they screw up that one. Is like failing to paint the Blue Man Group. You don´t have to be a expert in the subject to know these little things. Also, I think is very telling that Quasi here spends more time with this little spawn of hell that his own parents. And now that I think about it... why the kid is so much like his father? Esmeralda have the strongest genes while her husband all the recesive one, her child should at least have her black hair.
j1233191 In the book. But in the disney movie Esmeralda doesn´t have any jewell, so the viewer can only asume is her name because of her eyes, wich are fairly unique in the entire movie.
When I was a kid, I had dislocated canines (the pointy teeth in the front of your mouth) were they would pop out of my gums. Doubbling the fact I'm heavily pail skinned and love horror. I was mocked and tease for being a vampire. The first hunchback of Notre Dame is my favorite movie, because it taught me that there is some out there who cares for me. The second movie just angered me for it's blatantly disregard of the original
Gotta love how a story that pushed the "looks don't matter" card still has the protagonist get a super-model girlfriend at the end of the sequel... Talk about missing the point.
also gotta love the story the kinda runs counter to the moral by making the villain who is supposed to be good looking on the outside,bad in the inside a guy who needs to prepare himself massively to even look like that.
Same here, I actually rather liked the second one as well. It will never to pthe original but as far as Disney sequels go, it was more watchable and I did like Kovu as a character lol.
+Queenofawesome25 I would have to disagree with you on Lion King 1 1/2. I found that one more insulting to fans of the Original Lion King than I found funny.
Frollo: A dark, intelligent, and complex character being torn between his intolerance for gypsies, religion, and sexual desires. The Ring-Leader: He's vain.
You can't have a good Hunchback of Notre Dame movie without Claude Frollo. You need Frollo or your Hunchback movie will fail; this movie is case in point.
Michael Maximus That just adds a whole layer of, I'm not even sure whether to describe it as annoying or not, to the Hunchback level in Dream Drop Distance.
BTW,Speaking of KH,when's the Hunchback level going to return in KH3,I know it already appeared in DDD,but,Thrust me,the Tron level from KH2 returned in DDD,So when?
ithyrial Also there's this little thing called books where you can learn all sorts of things from simply reading them without having to go anywhere. Surprised Enter didn't see this as a possibility.
I still find it stupid how someone living in a tower most of their life knows more about the world than a traveling circus. There's reading about things, then there's actually experiencing them.
Seriously, am I the ONLY one who actually liked Lion King 2? I mean, the character developement is good, it fits in with the Lion King series quite well, and Kiara and Kovu are very lovable characters. But yeah, I guess it Lion King 2 has SOME flaws, like make Simba turned into a ignorant douchebag for the first half of the movie then suddenly turning him into a nice guy in the end for a wierd reason. But yet I still loved the film ever since I was a kid.
The one thing that I didn't get is why in Lion King 2 Nala has blue eyes even though she had green eyes in Lion King 1? In fact, is it the same character?! But yeah, Simba was a bit ignorant towards Kovu for no reason even though his father tries to tell him otherwise.
The Lion King 2 is easily one of the best of the straight to video Disney sequels. They actually put effort into it, like they felt that The Lion King really did deserve a sequel, unlike many of the other Disney sequels, which are sequels for the sake of sequels.
Michael Siegler It wasn't that bad, probably the best straight-to-video Disney sequel I've seen, but what I really didn't like was the ending. All that stuff about love and acceptance felt kinds forced...I dunno, it might just be me, but I really didn't like it
Quasimodo being the person who best understands the world makes sense. Everyone else in the movie (for the most part) and in the real world only knows their way of life wich is usually the normal way. Quasi's been learning normal life for a while AND remembers his old life. When it comes to understanding the world the guy actually has a huge advantage.
Mr. Enter's reactions to Quasimodo (that are his face as his non-deformed self and his voice in The Hunchback of Notre Dame II) just make us LOL! Then again, angry humour from Internet users like Mr. Enter make us fucking laugh.
God i forgot how weak of a film this was. Just compare the conflict to the original -A judge with a supposedly high moral code burns down Paris and persecutes God knows how many people to find a gypsy (not sure if that's how you spell it sorry) he lusts over and then tries to burn her at the stake -a fucking fancy bell gets stolen
Thiti2000: *YOU ARE WEAKER FOR COMPARING THE HUNCHBACK OF NOTRE DAME II TO ITS PREDECESSOR LIKE THAT* *Frollo's horse murders Thiti2000 like he killed Quasimodo's mother*
The Hunchback of Notre Dame is also my favorite Disney film cause of how dark, but still lighthearted it was (except for the gargoyles, obviously). Disney films now are too PC (by that I mean Protective of Children) and that's not a bad thing, but that kind of holds them back from being spectacular. And yeah, I too hate the Hunchback sequel. I believe it was only made to pair Quasimodo up with someone as fans were upset that he and Esmeralda didn't hook up even though the first film wasn't a Beauty and the Beast story. Speaking of that, this film partially rips off the Beauty and the Beast trope, especially with Sarousch, who is basically Gaston minus the charm and humor and upping the vanity, and Madeline, a dumbed down, bland version of Belle. Thank god they didn't make any more sequels or even a tv show out of this, like every other 90s Disney film.
The Aladdin show in the 90'a was really good most of the time. They had at least some shading and light effects and the animation was smooth during the various action scenes.
1717Dave I'm not sure if I agree with them being protective... have you seen zootopia? That movie has some heavy shit that doesn't even question children's intelligence.
But chances are a series would actually tell a better story, or series of stories. I mean Quasimodo running around Paris fighting bad guys like Spider-Man wouldn't be such a bad idea.
plus there is actually a diffrence between pure vanity and what gaston shows. people looked at the no one is x like gaston-scene and made a pretty great analysis of how and why gaston has a reason to act like he does. this guy tho? yeah no,he is just gay for himself
Actually no, it's Politically Correct. Movies turn out the way they do today because some SJW virtue signaling dipshits want "diverse" characters, but don't know the meaning of the word, let alone how to write for a movie. Disney used to be all about raising the bar for animation so that people would look at it as more than "lol kids stuff"
also why's Esmeraldas kid blonde and white? at the very least he should look mixed with dark hair :/ like i get recessive traits and all but he comes from a mixed couple
In the original story, Esmeralda was daughter to a Frenchwoman. She was taken away by the gypsies and Quasimodo was left in her place. Seeing how gypsies are nomadic, Esmeralda's dark tone is a tan.
DarkStone94 ok but in the movie shes brown and it doesnt make a whole lot of sense for her son to just be a carbon copy of his dad like he reproduced asexually via meiosis
Maybe Zephyr was actually Pheobus's son from a previous marriage and Esmeralda is his stepmother. I haven't seen the movie, so I don't know if he's her biological child.
pete hill *sigh* and if you look to your left right, you can see one of those people who will tear down other people's opinions despite the fact that we can have them no matter what. (unless it's on foodfight. that sucked.)i don't CARE if you hate the httyd movies. i liked them, you hate them, it's fine and good. but when people start tearing down their opinions, it gets personal.
Oh gawd, the villain is beyond horrible....a freaking narcissistic vanity type dude who wants to steal a bell? Shame. ..nothing close to the first villain, Frollo, now that guy was badass.
@@amedotuniverse652 Quasimodo also has Esmeralda's green eyes. In my eyes Esmeralda is his mother and Phoebus his dad. You think I'm totally wrong? Yes. She's NOT his mother because his mother died at the beginning. Not neccessary... I think Esmeralda is like 35 in the first movie. That would make her 15 at the beginning of the first movie. Please don't call me stupid you guys. It's just my theory. I have autism too. I would be very sad if someone answered negatively. And the theory make sense at least to me. I'd be happy if some curious person answered and asked about this interesting theory🙂
The worst part of this is that the magic could've been so easily explained. Maybe some exposition about ACTUAL magic instead of fake carnie magic. There is no way you could do that in reality so it would have been so much better if it was explained
+Tom The Fish Why does he need to make an Admirable Animation on it? A lot of people know and respect the movie, which makes making a review pointless. Plus, it is unfair because he admitted it is his favorite Disney movie.
I guess by Disney standerds it is fairly underrated. As it seems to be the one that is appreciated but never in the limelight when Disney advertise etc.
...I just realized Zephyr is voiced by Haley Joel Osment, who later went on to voice Sora in Kingdom Hearts. In the seventh game, Dream Drop Distance, Sora visits This world... It's come full circle XD
It's only me who interpreted the gargoyles as a manifestation of the power of God? I mean, it's impossible that Quasimodo grew as a kind and gentle person with FROLLO as his only known relative and teacher. I think God (who also manifested himself as the other statues and gargoyles of Notre Dame to scare and eventually kill Frollo with a roar in the face) knew Frollo was going to be an awful father, so he animated the three gargoyles to give Quasi company and keep him on the right way.
I like that theory a lot! Also you could say that God had seen Frollo as a sinner and created deformity struck Quasimodo to test his priest worth. And he failed and so He sent the gargoyles to console His creation and deal punishment to Frollo. But that might be pushing the theory too far.
Rapunzel in the movie Tangled was raised by Mother Gothel for the first 18 years of her life and she is a sweet, loving and compassionate person regardless of the gas lighting, mean manipulative, bitch Mother Gothel is.
I actually didn't mind the gargoyles in the first one. I didn't find them as annoying as most people did, and felt that they were much needed comic relief.
So here's the biggest question, why the fuck are Phoebus and Esmeralda still in Paris, gypsy culture comes with a nomadic lifestyle (Or at least it did in the era the movie takes place in) if you marry one you take up the lifestyle as custom dictates, unless of course she decided to stay with him in which case here people would have gone on without her, but no they decided to set up shop right there in Paris, Disney, learn to research!
Holy crap. This movie was from 2002!? I was going to pass off the animation as some lazy, mid-90's for-TV animation, but this is ridiculous. Homestar Runner looked more visually appealing, and that's a practically no-budget flash show. From BEFORE this movie came out.
In the film's defense the people who worked on it as well as a large majority of the 2000's pointless sequels, were very low budget in comparison to the originals, had very little time to create them and were not used to creating full length feature films, but rather for 22 minute episodes for television. I'm genuinely shocked that this and many of the others were as good as they currently are.
+Toxic Rabbitania Well, there is a few years between the first and second film, so maybe that's why. Also, Demi Moore isn't as young as everyone thinks she is.
You want to know something, the Estate of Victor Hugo if I am correct sued Disney when the original was released in France due to forgetting to mention it was based off of the original book.
I watched Hunchback and it’s sequel back to back when I was younger and I couldn’t make it past the opening scene in the second one. As a kid, most of the other Disney sequels amused me, and I still genuinely like the little mermaid prequel. But the lack of effort and creativity in the plot and animation of this movie... this can burn in hell with Frollo
I don't see why there has to be sequels where the main character who didn't get a love interest, suddenly gets one. They are almost all awful, and don't really serve a purpose to me. Not everyone has to have a love interest, as there are people perfectly fine without one, and it seems like whatever character they were in the first movie, gets butchered to make way for this new person in their lives. A love interest should enhance who you are as a person, not strip you of who you were down to a love-struck moron. The stories they're thrust into generally aren't anything special, either. This is just my two cents, though.
Think that's bad you should see how worse sequels are when they are written and directed by people who have no idea what they are doing or have a single understanding of the source material -Star Wars Sequel Trilogy-
+aenjgeal The visuals were too distracting for me. I mean, in the first movie it showed how easily he could scale the monastery and took great detail to show how high he was, this one looked like he was just climbing a giant banana in lemon pudding.
It's not terrible per se, but it's not in tune at all and his diction just sounds.. amateurish. And we're talking Tom Hulce, someone who has sung amazingly in not just other parts of this movie but throughout his career as an actor.
Phoebus:Coincedence?,I didn't think so. Bernie Kropp(from The Incredibles):HEY!,YOU STOLE MY LINE! Phoebus:Oh,C'mon,I'm sure it was just a Coincedence. Bernie:Coincedence?,I Think NOT! (Pause) Phoebus:Darn it,Pixar! Bernie:Darn it,Disney!
So the first Hunchback is considered one of the darkest Disney movies because of things like genocide. The Incredibles has that as well but no one ever considers it to be dark. Is it because they portrayed it differently?
Because Huntchback came out in a time where the subject was more touchy to be spoken around children. Not to mention that it deals with a real people/ethnicity, and not superheroes.
sheesh, did this movie hire the composers from swam princess? yuck. (the songs are lame, but swam princess kinda lodged itself in my childhood, so its my guilty pleasure) (and by the way, I've ALWAYS though how encrusting a bell with gems is useless for two reasons: first, as pointed, will affect it's tune and sound, making it probably not very smooth. Second, the constant ringing would CRACK all the gems. Yea...a bell rings with a heavy, solid pendulum hitting it's inner walls. Putting something like gems inside it will make the pendulum jackhammer all those gems to pieces)
Kitsune Fyora Actually, the vast majority of the direct to video Disney sequels are about the children of their predecessors' protagonists. (Lion King 2 is about Simba's daughter, Kiara, Lady and the Tramp 2 is about Lady and Tramp's son, Scamp, and Little Mermaid 2 is about Ariel's daughter, Melody. Just to name a few.)
Yep! Just like how there never was and never will be a movie of A:TLA. Nope. Nor are there any other Star Wars movies out there aside from the trilogy we all know and love, and there are also only three Indiana Jones movies and there will NEVER be anymore than that.
Sinba's Pride (while it is also worth watching at the same time because I'd likely give it as much stars as Jambareeqi gave it out of 5) and Stitch Has a Glitch are DisneyToon Studios films that are just watchable, Aladdin and the King of Thieves is more than worth watching (like its oldest predecessor) and The Hunchback of Notre Dame II is one of the many movies that give straight-to-video films a reputation that looks nearly as bad as Quasimodo in The Hunchback of Notre Dame II.
i usually have no problem with disneysequels. i think they are a bit overhated. however,i can see why this one is hated. i only did not notice it was a piece of cheaply made drawings because i was a kid who literally watched anything not insulting and found it passable
Somewhere in Hell, Frollo is being tortured by being forced to watch this movie.
He also might be sickened to see Esmerelda and Pheobus have a child in the film. :)
Brandon Roberts Nah, I'm pretty sure Hades is the one forcing Frollo to watch this piece of shit movie.
He's being forced to watch all the horrible Disney sequels plus The Last Airbender. And my little pony G3. And let's not forget the worst SpongeBob episodes and repeatedly watching the toenail scene 50 times.
@109459631382354882650 And the poor old man is strapped to a chair with his eyes pried open while a bunch of demons laugh at his misery.

Esmerelda= Emerald= Green
Has blue eyes
Because logic?? Oh wait her eyes were green in the first movie
Esmeralda's eyes? Have you noticed how Quasimodo skin is dark bege, or bege, for the most part and in some scenes he is very pale all the sudden?
Sorcery!
Let’s rename her Sapphire instead because of her eyes blue colored
It's obvious that whoever the hell made this movie probably didn't know that Esmeralda meant emerald.
Quasimodo forgot to put wings on Tinker Bell.
Lol
man i forgot i typed this. XD
jesus christ i am laughing so hard I'm in tears-
Kai Jenks its supposed to be Madeline but she looks way to much like a shoed in Tinkerbell Easter egg
haha. little quasiXtinkerbell
When Frollo died, he decided to take all the quality, animation, talent, logic out of the series as a curse if Disney ever tried to create a sequel. Or Disney was extremely lazy and wanted to make a cash in.
King John That’s Frollo’s revenge
Hunchback of Notre Dame shouldn't be a series.
Lol
Frollo got his revenge.
Good god, he truly is one of Disney’s evilest villains
How did they mess up her eyes being green??? IT'S LITERALLY IN HER NAME. SHE'S NAMED AFTER THE GREENEST THING THERE IS.
Well what do you expect from a production crew who thought it'd be a good idea to put jewels in a bell?
doesnt really work even. quasimodo is deformed and ugly. the bell has a normal shape and is beautiful. quasi is probably the most able man in the whole town,while the bell is probably the least prefered to be rung(assuming they actually get it to work,ringing it has to damage the jewelry inside,right?)
@@lpfan4491 unless there diamonds. But i don't think there green or red. Well there is a blue diamond not sure about the rest

Schaffrillas Productions would probably say “Shut up, she’s better in the sequel than the original!” about this top comment if he saw it.
I laughed out loud at "why would you bring your life savings to a circus!?"
So did I, so much so that I quote it daily
@@timewarpproductions4844what conversations are you having in which that quote can fit in? 😂
Frollo- a dark, evil, and murderous man who threatens to burn down all of Paris in an attempt to kill all of the Gypsies. When he gets Esmeralda, he forces her to choose him or to be burned in the bonfire. After Quasimodo saved her several times, Frollo went against the church to not only kill Esmeralda, but his own "son," Quasimodo. He is one of Disney's greatest villains because of these qualities. He's one of the greatest villains, period.
Sarousch- a vain, self attracted, cowardly ringmaster who's goal is to steal Quasimodo's most beautiful bell, La Fidele. He is fat and balding, but fixes himself up before performances. Despite his aging, he loves to talk about how he would kiss himself, but would then fall in love if he did so. He would be a good villain for a fifteen minute cartoon, but instead, he was thrown into one that goes on for an hour and a half.
When you compare Sarousch to Frollo, Sarousch is an absolute joke. It makes you wonder how he was even CONSIDERED to replace Frollo.
Nitro Nick's Game Corner A perfect description for each of them. :)
Imagine this,Frollo Vs Sarousch.
Michael Maximus That would be like pitting some smart talking hobo against Muhammad Ali.
Bernard Crow Or the Annoying Orange against JonTron.
+Nitro Nick's Game Corner Frollo having Sarousch burned at the stake would've been the ONLY good deed he had ever done in his life.
"Imagine, someone you love who loves you..."
Someone was PAID to come up with these lyric.
Phoebus's appearance in this movie was really botched. I think they wanted to have some kind of moral about how wrong petty discrimination is, but it didn't work since Phoebus was right about the carnies being thieves.
PeachieQueen Also because Phoebus is only a jerk in the novel.
yeah,the only part that works is that one singular member was okay. the rest was pretty shit tho.
its like the studio just looked as the first movie and thought:"oh,cool. phoebus was the only one in his groop to be trusted. lets do that!". what they didnt understand is that context is key. everyone working for frollo was technicly dutybound and maybe just didnt want to loose their job. there almost being no clean carnies and none of the no good-carnies turning around even slightly is just unrealistic and makes them bastards for being random thiefs while having a running profession.(they could either get a better job or fuck off)
Also it makes literally no sense because he helped and fell in love with a gypsy in the first movie. You know, an extremely discriminated against group in that universe.
Imo Disney deliberately tried making Phoebus look like an iffy character because a lot of people were really disappointed Esmerelda ended up with him instead of Quasi in the first movie, its one of the biggest complaints it got, hence why the sequel was so focused on giving Quasi his own girlfriend. The whole moral could’ve been easy to pan out if they didn’t make Phoebus look a douche all of a sudden because he compared the circus folk to the Romani. Maybe if Saruge was confirmed to be a Romani man who took advantage of their bad reputation and he justified his actions and greed for how his family and community was treated by the French or something, showing just because one Romani man was a thief and con artist doesn’t mean all of them are like that
wow the animation quality on the sequel is horrendous
when watching it I seriously thought it was done by a different studio or had a low budget. Or both
buck wade Caanan It does have a kind of different studio and a lower budget. Most of the massive amount of sequels were made by the toon disney animators and writers who did the tv shows. That's why the story is fucking stupid and the animation is ultra shit.
Grundy Peebo It's even more atrocious when you put it back to back with the original.
At first glance, I mistaked it for a t.v. show.
Agreed! If I recall correctly, Lady & The Tramp 2 had good animation and Atlantis 2 had passable animation. But this...
I could only see "Animated Atrocities: The Hunchback of Notre Dam..." on mobile and I had a fucking heart attack. I'm so glad it's the sequel instead.
that goes under "admirable animation"

Great. It sounds like you don’t have any triggers, at least none that you know about. I’ll proceed with caution nevertheless. Just please let me know if you start feeling triggered by anything I’m saying, and we can take a brief time-out while you summon your moirail to help pacify you, assuming you have one. Not that I’m presuming you do, But I heard that you did, is that correct? If not, I apologize. I further apologize if your orientation precludes the possibility, as a pale aromantic, panquadrant demiromantic, something in the gray palesexual department or such, and hopefully you are not triggered by such presumptuous concillianormative language. It wouldn’t be the first time I was guilty of such an inexcusable microaggression, and I am not so oblivious to my own romantic privilege to believe it will be the last time either. #concillianormativity #microaggressions #romprivilege #presumptuous #moirails #inexcusable
I’m glad I brought up the subject of unexamined privilege, because it dovetails beautifully with the point I was about to make regarding beforan society and its savage umbral potentiality which later manifested through the kind of Alternian brutality you are all too familiar with. Those in the higher echelons of the hemospectrum such as the ceruleans, or “blue bloods” (careful, being loose with such terminology is opening the floodgates to a whole host of toxic signist language and hemophobic slurs), when addressing the challenges faced by those lower on the spectrum, such as the midhues or in particular warm castes like umbers, ochres, or “rust bloods” (another slur, highly problematic, deeply offensive and triggering terminology, strongly imploring you steer clear of this term), they would be well advised to check their cerulean privilege, particularly before dismissing hardships or marginalizing claims of oppression, which can be difficult for them to identify or empathize with from their advantageous position within the beforan//Alternian power structures. #dovetail #problematic #powerstructures #toxicsignistlanguage
And some may argue that in our peaceful “utopian” culture that we have freed ourselves from injustice and disparities in privilege in a post-scarcity economy, largely equal rights distributed across the hemospectrum, and therefore exist in a “post-spectral world” (laugh out loud), and therefore there is no need to champion important social causes and there is nothing left to debate, but really nothing could be further from the truth. You just need to educate yourself and carefully investigate the longstanding power dynamics in play. For instance, a seemingly “harmless” remark from a cisblooded cerulean toward an umber or God forbid a burgundy or yes even a warm-identifying physically-cooler caste, about their very long term future plans such as on the order of centuries, then this may prove to be a very hurtful microagression due to the fact that lowhues cannot possibly live that long themselves, and the more priviliged caste could easily outlive dozens of generations of midhues or hundreds of generations of bUoYs (burgundy-umber-ochre-yellowgreens, note please avoid describing the lattermost as “lime bloods” as it has historically been used as an especially vicious epithet). Such remarks can further trigger painful reminders of how cooler castes, to some extent oJAs, but CIPs and Royal-Vs in particular, have been able to use their tremendous lifespans over the millenia to gain a stranglehold over the social order, have been able to completely dictate our societal evolution by ensuring only their cultural agendas and narratives receive the dialogue’s air supply, assuring the codification of those resultant ideals and deciding what “normalcy” entails, and sadly these absolutes become internalized across the full spectral range, even within those of most compromised privilege, and so you begin to see the cyclical nature of the dysfunction and the resulting inertia against positive change and raising awareness of the most underproblematized issues, which I think we can agree, is pretty problematic. #postspectralworld #lol #bUoYs #oJAs #CIPs #RoyalVs #narratives #agendas #narratives #lifespanprivilege #dysfunction #aweness #agendas
KANKRI: And really, it’s everyone’s business to examine their privilege, even burgundies, who may be subject to the pitfall of believing incorrectly there are none on the scale beneath them whom they enjoy certain privileges over, which off-spectrum trolls will never know, such as those identifying as otherbloods or caste-multiples, “polyblooded”, any who hemoglobically ID as having a caste which manifests nowhere (as yet known) in anyone physically, or for that matter offspecs who physically do possess such a blood type, or “mutants” (VERY problematic term, highly triggering to some, be warned), such as you and I, Karkat. but this puts us both in a situation which to our knowledge uniquely allows us to understand and empathize with tragically underprivileged and unempowered groups across all scuttles of life, thus affording us both what I like to call a “uniquely underprivileged privilege”, which, yes, is a kind of privilege we should both strive to check as well, whenever we can. This same uniquely underprivileged perspective as I’m sure you know was disadvantaged upon my post-scratch iteration as well, and while I have no doubt you justifiably came to revere that figure of your planet’s rich history and your personal lineage, and while his goals of peace, equality, and a truly spectrablind society, I’m afraid I personally have trouble condoning his methods. I don’t like to use the term “problematic” lightly, but, well, his tactics were nothing if not massively problematic, to say the least, employing violent uprising to effect change, and emblazoning his mark upon history and his faithful followers with the salty flourish of a single rude, shouted swear word, it’s not to my taste even though he is who I would have grown up to be in another life. but no, I prefer to effect social change through rational, honest discourse and contributing to ongoing dialogues, focusing on what should be the real goals, through keen adherence to the discipline of Problematics, ensuring that we stay focused on successfully problematizing a wide range of direly undercomplicated social dilemmas. #undercomplication #saltyflourish #rudeshoutedswearword #spectrablindsociety #dilemmas #goals #Problematics #dilemmas
It’s nice to see we agree on so much. Maybe we are not so unalike, despite our drastically different upbringings. Anyway, as I was saying, the story of your ancestor, and more importantly my exhaustive list of misgivings with his approach to social change, is quite a long and elaborate one, but it actually fits brilliantly within the larger mosaic which captures the broad strokes of my post. I mean our discussion. Trigger warnings for the following content include: ancestor bashing, faith shaming, loud swearing, torture, burn wounds, ship sinking… again, seriously, just let me know if you begin to feel triggered by anything, even slightly. We’ll pause and see if we can really explore those issues, and identify exactly how I may have invalidated your struggles. Without further ado, the story is as follows: #TW #ancestorbashing #shaming #swearing #torture #burns #shipsinking #struggles #invalidation #misgivings

I can imagine Frollo's reaction.

+FreddyPedoBear I bet this movie was so bad, it had Victor Hugo rolling in his grave! DX
+Catalina Rose Rolling? How about doing a backflip through a ring of fire?
+FreddyPedoBear Clopin didn't even look like clopin
+Catalina Rose But Victor Hugo should have hated the first one, because it was nothing like his story. It was a great movie in its own right, but as an adaption, it was VERY sanitized.
+Hannah Shribman-Brown yeah but they could never tell the actual story to children it was already way too deep for kids movie as it was
Honestly the bell being beautiful on the inside would be more meaningful if the bell wasn't bejeweled and just sounded the best. Showing beauty as something like jewels kind of backfires on the message
Yeah, it would be much better if it looked super crummy, like an "Ol' Faithful" type deal, but the sound it made was super unique and poignant
Moon Lit Medow It would show the beauty is not all about what you see, sometimes it’s about what it can do.
@Mackenzie Jackson i mean they are but-
@Mackenzie Jackson I'm pretty sure someone who needs organs wouldn't care about what the person who had them looked like.
Wouldn't the gong inside the bell BREAK the jewels when rung? Or at least scratch them severely?
Man, the original book is FUCKED up. Frollo actually has Esmerelda hung, and Quasi lays with her corpse until he dies of starvation.
And Phoebus could have saved Esmeralda, but he's like, "Fuck that," and watches her execution.
TheClaireWitchProject Don't you think you're Nitpicking the original book?
Michael Maximus How am I nitpicking? I didn't say, "The book is bad and it's all because of this one minor detail." I was just throwing that out there because it related to the OP's comment. Unless you mean the tone of the comment. I was trying to make it sound mundane, like what happened was no big deal just as a joke. Sorry if that wasn't clear.
TheClaireWitchProject I'm sorry too,I just don't like it when People nitpick things that are good.
Michael Maximus I agree with you. I think the original story is great, though I won't deny that I love the Disney adaption, too.
Okay, Esmeralda is now the wife of the captain of the city guard right? So why is she still running around barefoot and(by Medieval standards) half naked? At the very least she should be wearing shoes, a costlier/more modest dress and her hair up/braided (or a sort of haddress as it was custom for married women back then) And she should definitely not dance for coins anymore. If Phoebus can afford freaking gold covered armour he can afford a pair of shoes for his wife, I hope.
+Garth St.Claire I can't believe I'm defending this movie but she is wearing shoes.
+janeyrevanescence12 Now that you mention it, I actually seem to remember her wearing green shoes, maybe? Still she should be dressed way better as the wife of the captain of the guard.
+Garth St.Claire maybe its her way of staying true to her roots? idek nothing can save this movie's failed logic
In Esmeralda's defense (because the movie sucks), I think it's kind of a gypsy thing.
I wouldn't know very well but I can say for the clothing/shoe thing, it's true for that because the clothing is traditional and the shoes well...it's kind of a thing I've seen around before.
And hell, maybe she just likes dancing. Come on! Just because she's married doesn't mean she has to change her entire personality, clothing and hobbies :/
-The only thing that changed was her eye color-
Maybe it's because they had no budget, so they had to reuse animation or some shit
"Who the fuck takes their life savings to a circus?!"
"Why are Esmeralda's eyes blue? They were *green* in the first movie! And *deep* green at that!"
Not to mention her name means "Emerald"! That's not why she was called that in the book, but it still should've been a helpful reminder for whoever was in charge of continuity checks.
They did Frollo a favor when they killed him off so he wouldn't be in this movie.
Agreed. The best thing about the sequel is that Frollo couldn't come back to be ruined in it.
Agreed. We all thought that Frollo went to hell. Apparently, the good guys went to hell (which is this sequel😂).
Disney sequels sometimes take away the good villains
And now we don’t have them anymore since Moana
Or Frozen 2
Why is Phoebus still wearing his armor? Didn't he give up being Captain in the first movie? And how is he not in prison? I mean, they won at the end of the first movie, but all they did was overthrow Judge Frollo. You'd think the King of France would have been notified of a peasant revolt in Paris and Phoebus would have been arrested and most likely beheaded, or he would at least be in hiding, and certainly not still be Captain of the guards he plainly betrayed in the first movie.
he was actually fired by frollo i think.with him being gone,he just took the job back.....that the king should have given a fuck is a good point however,i wonder why he didnt
That would have been a MUCH more interesting plot for the sequel.
Not to mention the fact that he married Esmeralda, and they both are still in their respective social classes. I mean, really? 15th centuary, and it was possible for Phoebus to marry a gypsy lady, and STILL remaining a well-respected part of the society? Same goes with Esmeralda. She is still a gypsy, after being wed to a captain of a ROYAL GUARD?! Tf.
Dr Shaym oh my god it’s literal plot armor
Because kids are stupid and wouldn't recognize him if they changed his appearance from the original movie. Don't you remember the confusion induced riots that ensued when Aladdin dressed as a prince.
Fun fact: this movie is the reason Tom Hulce (the voice of Quasi) retired from film acting.
no wonder
That's nice to know.
Damn it disney.
Woah.. That's sad :(
He was great in Amadeus. What a shame.

Rom Vacuous Spooder honestly, normal-quasi looked dumb as hell
the hunchback of notre dame, the secret of nimh.... parents complain how dark and scary these films are and traumatize children so the directors decide to make child-friendly, brainless shit sequels with no depth and no impression. which one is better for kids: dark films, that teach about love, courage and open-mindedness and have interesting, strong characters or light-hearted family films, where heroes are whining bitches and ignorant assholes and the moral of the story is blank?
Took the words right out of my mouth. I watched the original when I was three, three!, and was perfectly fine afterwards. Hell I think its why I'm the person I am today. It and the Lion King are the top two of my favorite Disney Renaissance movies. The Lion King 2 is my favorite of the sequels, 1 1/2 was meh to me, but this, this just is terrible compared to the original. And I hate flaunting my nostalgia around when it comes to matters like this but this is really a bad sequel that has no business existing. The animation is way off from the original, even TLK2 and all of the Stitch movies kept to their original art style better than this.
Merete Nora I know. Same thing happened with Honey , I Shrunk The Kids , and the exact opposite happened with the Wizard Of Oz.
Kira the Cat Ah I remember the first time I watched the second movie....., the animation change made my jaw hit the floor . What the hell man it looks like it was made in Bug's bunny's golden years
pete hill I think Return to Oz was better than the Wizard of Oz.
The originals are already pussyafide
The sad part is that this was a good concept. I liked the idea of Quasimodo getting a girl, I liked the idea of her having Quasi's opposite problem. Quasi being shunned for being ugly, no one taking her seriously because they think she's just a pretty face, and thus neither of them are looked at as people, just judged on their looks. But god, this is AWFUL!
Dragonrider1227 Just comes to show that having a good idea isn't all it takes to make a movie good.
RandomCommenterful ain't THAT the truth?
Yuna Kwon LOL That's basically what this was, wasn't it?
Yuna Kwon and a better villain
Yuna Kwon LOL understood XD
I can appreciate a bejeweled bell if it's made for the intention of simply being something to admire, like a statue, painting, or any piece of fine art. But why is it in the bell tower where NO ONE will be able to see it?
So the villain steals the bell, and..... now what? Where's he supposed to put it? Does he have a bell-tower-sized cart in his travelling circus in which he can proudly put it on display atop his coffee table? Wouldn't his possession of something that conspicuous be a little OBVIOUS to the authorities scouring the countryside in their attempts to retrieve it? Or was the idea for this incredibly vain character to NOT show off one of the most opulent relics in all of France?
Sure, Madeline's cute, but Esmeralda she ain't.
ultraofrahfan1 I know they were almost too subtle I mean my god plain on the outside and beautiful on the inside of course as stated the only purpose it could server is as art/attraction so why was it hidden away in the tower. Cause ringing it ain’t a logical option.
Bobsheaux In the end it was a great distraction in my middle school class.
Hey dude. You deserve more attention in the TH-cam critic business.
he was probably planning on taking the jewels from it and selling them not the whole bell + the metal of the bell would be worth some thin melted down
Yo, Bobsheaux! Please give AniMat, Cartoon Palooza and Jambareeqi paid Patreon requests/votes that are to review and go full rage on The Hunchback of Notre Dame II and many other horrible animated sequels they never reviewed yet.
I wonder if being forced to watch this movie is Frollo's torture in Hell.
Not even Satan would be that evil.
I am theorizing that Dante's missing tenth layer of Hell is being forced to sit through all the animated Hunchback knockoffs back-to-back, by Goodtimes, UAV Entertainment, Golden Films, 90's Burbank, and finally ending with Dingo pictures.
(If you want to know what I am talking about, look up the reviews by Phelous. Some of them seriously make Disney's "The Hunchback of Notre Dame II" look good).
This would no doubt come before the eleventh layer that Nostalgia Critic personally discovered, involving the boy shoving grapes in his nose and constantly shouting "Bloopity! Bloopity! Bloopity!" I don't blame Dante for finding them too horrifying for readers to comprehend and not writing about them.
Mark Cobuzzi Dante didn't write about them because Disney didn't exist during his lifetime.
Ditto with Syndrome and The Incredibles 2. January 11, 2019, 6:35pm
Frollo's torture in Hell is actually being burned for eternity. It's Hell, they're big on irony there.
In the first movie, Esmeralda demonstrated having her wits about her, able to (among other things) outmaneuver 10 soldiers going after her. In this she's utterly useless and hopes for her dopey husband to fix things.
Grimmheim xX I would say that Elastigirl is also a mom who kicks ass, but the incredibles is Pixar, not Disney
Outwitting 10 guards is fucking hard.. Eh.
@@Grimmheim Yes... She's a mother. A mother of two. At least I think. Quasi and Zephyr
@@Grimmheim You know the first movie? The gypsy woman at the beginning. I think it's Esmeralda. Everyone thinks she died. But not to me. I think she's supposed to be 35 in the first movie. That would make her 15 at the beginning. Clopin also tells the audience to solve the riddle. Maybe his mother survived and it's Esmeralda? Just saying. Interesting theory, huh🙂
@@sofiastern8218 Dude... Quasimodo's mother was WAAAY older than Esmeralda. And there is no proof that she is alive or that she could be Esmeralda.
And it would be really f*cked up that Quasimodo fell in love with HIS OWN MOTHER.
Even as a kid I hated the second Hunchback movie, it just felt like a betrayel of everything the first movie did.
Same with Pocahontas 2. I know a lot of people would say Mulan 2 as well, but at least that one had some good qualities about it. I don’t hate this sequel nearly as much as everyone else, but don’t get me wrong its one of the most terrible. But I’m more disappointed than anything. Every single character from the original movie got crapped on and are more stupid and ignorant in this movie. One of the most aggravating aspects is the mere fact the gargoyles are not only more annoying, but they get a lot more screentime than Esmerelda herself. Even Phoebus and Zephyr appear more than her, and she’s so cranky in this movie. And Quasi went from being an adorkable character just wanting to fit in to being a bumbling idiot who gets tongue tied around “hot” girls. Even Clopin himself is a shadow of his former self, a random narrator that isn’t really interested in the plot and for whatever stupid reason doesn’t have his cute little puppet of himself anymore
At first I was thinking maybe you're being a little harsh. The second movie wasn't as good as the first, but it wasn't that bad. I decided to watch the first movie again because it has been a few years since I've seen it. The first song gave me goosebumps and I was welling up with tears of joy by the time they showed the title (no exaggeration). You were right this movie is garbage. My apologies for doubting you.
What do you think of The Incredibles 2? January 13, 2019, 6:34pm
Personally, I've always liked Cinderella 3 and the last segment of Cinderella 2 just because of how they fleshed out and humanized Anastasia. She's one of my favorite Disney characters because of those movies.
That being said, I try to forget that Hunchback of Notre Dame 2 even exists. It's better for the sake of my mental health. Also hated Lady and the Tramp 2.
At least Lady and the Tramp 2 tried to tell a good if somewhat generic story and wasn’t a complete insult like this one.
How can DisneyToon Studios show us some beautiful animation in The Lion King 2 from 1998, but then make horrendous animation in Hunchback 2 from 2002?!
Different animators?
adultmoshifan87 Probably. (Cute channel pic by the way.)
...This was released in 2002???
Star Shard Apparently it was.
Tanisha Gonzalez the lion king II is one of my favorite movies of all time.
I've always thought that people who complain that Quasi didn't get the girl in the first movie are missing two important facts 1) Quasi wanted to be free and accepted in the first movie, and he got it. He was willing to let Esmeralda go, because he loved her, making the man and Frollo the monster. 2) Phoebus also loved Esmeralda and helped her, too. Esmeralda isn't a prize, after all and Quasi was happy because Esmeralda could be happy.
Bullshit.
it's the truth
I mean, true, but I still want a happy Quasimodo 😂
@@PianoDisneygal10 so do I and he was happy at the end from the first movie.
@@ChristineTheHippie true. But, I meant with a girl. 😊 I think it is nice to have a story where the guy with a physical deformity gets the girl.
i love how everybody's skintones randomly and radically fluctuate... like sometimes quasimodo is literally glowing white and sometimes esmerelda looks like phoebus in the shade, and then there's the moments where madeline becomes gargoyle gray... its incredible.
Mickey Ridley lol
At least someone appreciates The Hunchback Of Notre Dame as much as I do. Well done review.
I know right? The first one is amazing, there's so much depth to all the characters.
I just watched it for the first time today, such a glorious film.
Zack Kraemer It's seriously one of Disney's most underrated masterpieces. It'll always be one of my favorites.
+TallManVanitas so true
It's my favorite movie ever
"WHO TF TAKES THEIR LIFE SAVNGS TO A CIRCUS" A SPAT WATER ALL OVER MY COMPUTER SCREEN LOL
At least we know who the real clown is now
9:59 "MY LIFE SAVINGS!" Mr. Enter: Who the fuck takes their life savings to a circus!? XD
Everyone from Assassin's Creed 2
Polnaszek5 As the saying goes, a fool and his money are soon parted...
Mulan, Lion King, The Hunchback of Notre Dame, Pocahontas, and many other Disney movies do not need sequels
I agree with everything but the Lion King one. :) but that's just my opinion
At least The Lion King's sequel is one of the few good Disney sequels!
Carly Klein The Lion Guard does not need to exist
adultmoshifan87 1 and 1/2 was good. 2 was okay. Lion guard can burn in the flames of hell
Lion Guard isn't that bad. Unnecessary yes - bad no.
The name of Esmeralda comes from the fact that her eyes are green like esmeralds. And they screw up that one. Is like failing to paint the Blue Man Group. You don´t have to be a expert in the subject to know these little things.
Also, I think is very telling that Quasi here spends more time with this little spawn of hell that his own parents. And now that I think about it... why the kid is so much like his father? Esmeralda have the strongest genes while her husband all the recesive one, her child should at least have her black hair.
Candy Von Bitter No, her name comes from the emerald jewellery that she wears in the original book.
j1233191 In the book. But in the disney movie Esmeralda doesn´t have any jewell, so the viewer can only asume is her name because of her eyes, wich are fairly unique in the entire movie.
Candy Von Bitter Then Disney made a research error. Moving the goalposts isn't going to change that.
j1233191 Dude, I don´t think they were trying to make a 100% correct adaptation of the book either.
Candy Von Bitter Then I defer.
16:17, they forgot to add the shine to Quasimodo's left eye.
Dr Shaym He can't really SEE out of his left eye. It's missing in the first film too. The eye is covered by the large wart.
No, that's the actual only part of continuty this dumb movie has.
Is it just me or does the "fa-la-la-la falling in love" song sound like "kiss the girl"
+Yara Ahmed and "I'd Stick With You" sounds like "A Duo". That's two movies this movie ripped off
"My life savings!!"
"Who the fuck takes their life savings to a circus??"
That killed me. XD
Is it just me or are the shadows gone in the sequel? Did they just give up and forgot about shading?
Birgir Matras depends on what studio animates it
When I was a kid, I had dislocated canines (the pointy teeth in the front of your mouth) were they would pop out of my gums. Doubbling the fact I'm heavily pail skinned and love horror. I was mocked and tease for being a vampire. The first hunchback of Notre Dame is my favorite movie, because it taught me that there is some out there who cares for me. The second movie just angered me for it's blatantly disregard of the original
1:46 - Q doesn't just jump to the other building, HE FRIGGEN FLOATS!
ikr!
i just noticed xD towards the end of the jump he just starts gliding onto the other roof. wtf even
Gotta love how a story that pushed the "looks don't matter" card still has the protagonist get a super-model girlfriend at the end of the sequel... Talk about missing the point.
also gotta love the story the kinda runs counter to the moral by making the villain who is supposed to be good looking on the outside,bad in the inside a guy who needs to prepare himself massively to even look like that.
I don't know. She looks pretty ordinary
.... I like the Lion King 2... I don't like it more than the original, of course... but I like it.
Same here, I actually rather liked the second one as well. It will never to pthe original but as far as Disney sequels go, it was more watchable and I did like Kovu as a character lol.
+Queenofawesome25 lion King 1/2 was the shit
+Queenofawesome25 I would have to disagree with you on Lion King 1 1/2. I found that one more insulting to fans of the Original Lion King than I found funny.
I'm surprised he said he was planning on doing an animated atrocity of the Black Couldron, I seem to be the only one who actually loved it.
zeoxdragon that's basically the same for me with the Lilo and stitch sequel
Frollo: A dark, intelligent, and complex character being torn between his intolerance for gypsies, religion, and sexual desires.
The Ring-Leader: He's vain.
Is it just me, or does wood-carving Madeline look like Timkerbell?
No; she's wingless Tinker Bell.
i actually thought she was when i was a kid XDDDD
Evan1214 Well, its supposed to be Madeline but in my opinion its a shoed in and I mean a HORRIBLE shoe in at that.... of a Tinkerbell Easter egg
Clopin's probably thinking, "Why couldn't I just get shot in the first movie like the book called for?"
You can't have a good Hunchback of Notre Dame movie without Claude Frollo. You need Frollo or your Hunchback movie will fail; this movie is case in point.
Especially since they gave us a narcissistic pretty-boy of a "villain" in this movie.
Well it's a good thing Disney gave us the Owl House. Emperor Belos is basically the new Frollo.
With Frollo dead, the only possible way to bring him back would be bringing him back from the depths of Hell.
The sad part about Zephyr is his voice actor is Haley Jole Osment. Y'know. Sora from Kingdom Hearts.
I Know,Right?
Michael Maximus That just adds a whole layer of, I'm not even sure whether to describe it as annoying or not, to the Hunchback level in Dream Drop Distance.
Kira the Cat I didn't know that. O_O
BTW,Speaking of KH,when's the Hunchback level going to return in KH3,I know it already appeared in DDD,but,Thrust me,the Tron level from KH2 returned in DDD,So when?
Kira the Cat david from a.i. he couldn't have known this was good!
but then again, he was kinda younger at the time.
how would he know what rosemary is? well, remember, he's been going out in public for a few years, so he's probably learned about all kinds of stuff
ithyrial Also there's this little thing called books where you can learn all sorts of things from simply reading them without having to go anywhere. Surprised Enter didn't see this as a possibility.
I still find it stupid how someone living in a tower most of their life knows more about the world than a traveling circus.
There's reading about things, then there's actually experiencing them.
Seriously, am I the ONLY one who actually liked Lion King 2? I mean, the character developement is good, it fits in with the Lion King series quite well, and Kiara and Kovu are very lovable characters. But yeah, I guess it Lion King 2 has SOME flaws, like make Simba turned into a ignorant douchebag for the first half of the movie then suddenly turning him into a nice guy in the end for a wierd reason. But yet I still loved the film ever since I was a kid.
The one thing that I didn't get is why in Lion King 2 Nala has blue eyes even though she had green eyes in Lion King 1? In fact, is it the same character?! But yeah, Simba was a bit ignorant towards Kovu for no reason even though his father tries to tell him otherwise.
I didn't even know people thought it was a bad movie
The Lion King 2 is easily one of the best of the straight to video Disney sequels. They actually put effort into it, like they felt that The Lion King really did deserve a sequel, unlike many of the other Disney sequels, which are sequels for the sake of sequels.
Michael Siegler I like the movie too
Michael Siegler It wasn't that bad, probably the best straight-to-video Disney sequel I've seen, but what I really didn't like was the ending. All that stuff about love and acceptance felt kinds forced...I dunno, it might just be me, but I really didn't like it
1:34-1:36 They're clipping out of existance.
+MegaAnimazing welp rip in peace - them
+MegaAnimazing In the words of Frollo, "WITCHCRAFT!"
Lol I actually found you in the comments
Maybe they timewarped into a better movie
MegaAnimazing
Good job Disney.
*slaps a participation medal on*
Quasimodo being the person who best understands the world makes sense. Everyone else in the movie (for the most part) and in the real world only knows their way of life wich is usually the normal way.
Quasi's been learning normal life for a while AND remembers his old life.
When it comes to understanding the world the guy actually has a huge advantage.
You yelling "OW" nearly broke my computer screen, actually XD
sweden be judgin' this movie
Sweden is the perfect icon for this comment
It startled me.
Mr. Enter's reactions to Quasimodo (that are his face as his non-deformed self and his voice in The Hunchback of Notre Dame II) just make us LOL! Then again, angry humour from Internet users like Mr. Enter make us fucking laugh.
God i forgot how weak of a film this was. Just compare the conflict to the original
-A judge with a supposedly high moral code burns down Paris and persecutes God knows how many people to find a gypsy (not sure if that's how you spell it sorry) he lusts over and then tries to burn her at the stake
-a fucking fancy bell gets stolen
+Deathsbastardbro You spelled Gypsy correct, FYI.
Thiti2000: *YOU ARE WEAKER FOR COMPARING THE HUNCHBACK OF NOTRE DAME II TO ITS PREDECESSOR LIKE THAT*
*Frollo's horse murders Thiti2000 like he killed Quasimodo's mother*
The Hunchback of Notre Dame is also my favorite Disney film cause of how dark, but still lighthearted it was (except for the gargoyles, obviously). Disney films now are too PC (by that I mean Protective of Children) and that's not a bad thing, but that kind of holds them back from being spectacular.
And yeah, I too hate the Hunchback sequel. I believe it was only made to pair Quasimodo up with someone as fans were upset that he and Esmeralda didn't hook up even though the first film wasn't a Beauty and the Beast story. Speaking of that, this film partially rips off the Beauty and the Beast trope, especially with Sarousch, who is basically Gaston minus the charm and humor and upping the vanity, and Madeline, a dumbed down, bland version of Belle. Thank god they didn't make any more sequels or even a tv show out of this, like every other 90s Disney film.
The Aladdin show in the 90'a was really good most of the time. They had at least some shading and light effects and the animation was smooth during the various action scenes.
1717Dave I'm not sure if I agree with them being protective... have you seen zootopia? That movie has some heavy shit that doesn't even question children's intelligence.
But chances are a series would actually tell a better story, or series of stories. I mean Quasimodo running around Paris fighting bad guys like Spider-Man wouldn't be such a bad idea.
plus there is actually a diffrence between pure vanity and what gaston shows. people looked at the no one is x like gaston-scene and made a pretty great analysis of how and why gaston has a reason to act like he does. this guy tho? yeah no,he is just gay for himself
Actually no, it's Politically Correct. Movies turn out the way they do today because some SJW virtue signaling dipshits want "diverse" characters, but don't know the meaning of the word, let alone how to write for a movie.
Disney used to be all about raising the bar for animation so that people would look at it as more than "lol kids stuff"
Hunchback: "Well? How do I look?"
MrEnter: "Stupid."
That burn tho.
also why's Esmeraldas kid blonde and white? at the very least he should look mixed with dark hair :/ like i get recessive traits and all but he comes from a mixed couple
In the original story, Esmeralda was daughter to a Frenchwoman. She was taken away by the gypsies and Quasimodo was left in her place. Seeing how gypsies are nomadic, Esmeralda's dark tone is a tan.
DarkStone94 ok but in the movie shes brown and it doesnt make a whole lot of sense for her son to just be a carbon copy of his dad like he reproduced asexually via meiosis
Maybe Zephyr was actually Pheobus's son from a previous marriage and Esmeralda is his stepmother. I haven't seen the movie, so I don't know if he's her biological child.
DarkStone94: But wasn’t she Romani in the original story? Or was that the Disney film?
This trainwreck of a sequel actually makes me wish Frollo had won in the first movie.
Same. I 100% agree with you.
You sound like Hiccup from "How to train your dragon" movies
Unwritten commandment: Thou shalt not love crappy adaptations of great books(PS that includes How To Train Your Dragon).
***** Yeah,I thought the Sequel was better than the First movie. :)
More funnier too
***** Read the book! If you want to know why I hate that movie , read the book that it's based on .
pete hill *sigh* and if you look to your left right, you can see one of those people who will tear down other people's opinions despite the fact that we can have them no matter what. (unless it's on foodfight. that sucked.)i don't CARE if you hate the httyd movies. i liked them, you hate them, it's fine and good. but when people start tearing down their opinions, it gets personal.
Oh gawd, the villain is beyond horrible....a freaking narcissistic vanity type dude who wants to steal a bell?
Shame. ..nothing close to the first villain, Frollo, now that guy was badass.
Frollo was the embodiement of Satan on Earth. Sarousch whatshisname, is just another Gaston

Ashley Weihe Totally.:(
+origamipein18 I loved the first movie. The second one... I actully thought I was watching some sort of very, very odd parody.
why does zephyr look nothing like esmeralda?
Phoebus umm had a few too many drinks and let's just say a love child was born. That would be hilarious if it was true.
He looks more like Phoebus
The kid is annoying but it would have been more interesting if he actually looked like a racially mixed kid.
@@amedotuniverse652 Quasimodo also has Esmeralda's green eyes. In my eyes Esmeralda is his mother and Phoebus his dad. You think I'm totally wrong? Yes. She's NOT his mother because his mother died at the beginning. Not neccessary... I think Esmeralda is like 35 in the first movie. That would make her 15 at the beginning of the first movie. Please don't call me stupid you guys. It's just my theory. I have autism too. I would be very sad if someone answered negatively. And the theory make sense at least to me. I'd be happy if some curious person answered and asked about this interesting theory🙂
@@sofiastern8218 bs
The worst part of this is that the magic could've been so easily explained. Maybe some exposition about ACTUAL magic instead of fake carnie magic. There is no way you could do that in reality so it would have been so much better if it was explained
I'm not fully against straight to DVD sequels either. I happen to really enjoy Aladdin 3
Plus, it would make sense since if the Gargoyles can become alive, then magic can exist.

Admirable Animation: HunchBack Of Notre Dame.
I will wait.
+Tom The Fish Why does he need to make an Admirable Animation on it? A lot of people know and respect the movie, which makes making a review pointless. Plus, it is unfair because he admitted it is his favorite Disney movie.
I guess by Disney standerds it is fairly underrated. As it seems to be the one that is appreciated but never in the limelight when Disney advertise etc.
Look at his top 11 things he won't review and listen to why he won't review Over The Garden Wall
I really like the hunchback of notre dame but this one well it's just excuse to give Quasimodo a love interest
...I just realized Zephyr is voiced by Haley Joel Osment, who later went on to voice Sora in Kingdom Hearts. In the seventh game, Dream Drop Distance, Sora visits This world... It's come full circle XD
And here I was thinking Paris was called "The City of Lights" because there was a LAMP FACTORY there
It's only me who interpreted the gargoyles as a manifestation of the power of God?
I mean, it's impossible that Quasimodo grew as a kind and gentle person with FROLLO as his only known relative and teacher. I think God (who also manifested himself as the other statues and gargoyles of Notre Dame to scare and eventually kill Frollo with a roar in the face) knew Frollo was going to be an awful father, so he animated the three gargoyles to give Quasi company and keep him on the right way.
I like that theory a lot! Also you could say that God had seen Frollo as a sinner and created deformity struck Quasimodo to test his priest worth. And he failed and so He sent the gargoyles to console His creation and deal punishment to Frollo. But that might be pushing the theory too far.
__________ Frollo wasn't a priest in the movie. He was a judge.
Rapunzel in the movie Tangled was raised by Mother Gothel for the first 18 years of her life and she is a sweet, loving and compassionate person regardless of the gas lighting, mean manipulative, bitch Mother Gothel is.
I actually didn't mind the gargoyles in the first one. I didn't find them as annoying as most people did, and felt that they were much needed comic relief.
So here's the biggest question, why the fuck are Phoebus and Esmeralda still in Paris, gypsy culture comes with a nomadic lifestyle (Or at least it did in the era the movie takes place in) if you marry one you take up the lifestyle as custom dictates, unless of course she decided to stay with him in which case here people would have gone on without her, but no they decided to set up shop right there in Paris, Disney, learn to research!

Holy crap. This movie was from 2002!? I was going to pass off the animation as some lazy, mid-90's for-TV animation, but this is ridiculous. Homestar Runner looked more visually appealing, and that's a practically no-budget flash show. From BEFORE this movie came out.
In the film's defense the people who worked on it as well as a large majority of the 2000's pointless sequels, were very low budget in comparison to the originals, had very little time to create them and were not used to creating full length feature films, but rather for 22 minute episodes for television. I'm genuinely shocked that this and many of the others were as good as they currently are.
Well, I guess you have a point there.
It was actually made whilst Hunchback was still being shown in theaters. It was finished in late 1997-98, so it took a while for it to be distributed.
Baby Dogson Oh, so I guess there's a little excuse.
***** And also, given that it was third (I think) direct to video sequel by DisneyToon Studios, there is a little leeway for them.
I loved the 1st movie as a kid.. I didn't even know this one existed. Kinda wish it stayed that way.
This animation looks like when you cant find half of your crayons but you “make it work” with what you’ve got 🤷🏼♀️
Anyone notice that Esmeralda now sounds like a smoker?

+CureMewPeach her voice sounds much raspier and deeper than the first film. Maybe it's just me.
+Toxic Rabbitania sounds the same to me.
+Toxic Rabbitania Well, there is a few years between the first and second film, so maybe that's why. Also, Demi Moore isn't as young as everyone thinks she is.
Wow Disney hates Victor Hugo.
+Freedom Cage I said that after watching the first movie
+Freedom Cage to be fair, the original book was pretty damn racist.
Please watch Lindsay Ellis’s video on the Hunchback. It delves deep into the history of the book and all of the adaptations prior to the Disney movie
You want to know something, the Estate of Victor Hugo if I am correct sued Disney when the original was released in France due to forgetting to mention it was based off of the original book.
Not as much as Hans Christian Andersen.

Looks like Phillips CD-i animation!
LNER Mallard Its not that bad but its still really ugly like a really crappy tv show.

philipnova798 It's really ugly though.
My Atari 2600 looks better than this movie
i rather take the cdi animations actually. they look worse,but they at least have a style. this just looks too basic
I watched Hunchback and it’s sequel back to back when I was younger and I couldn’t make it past the opening scene in the second one. As a kid, most of the other Disney sequels amused me, and I still genuinely like the little mermaid prequel. But the lack of effort and creativity in the plot and animation of this movie... this can burn in hell with Frollo
Same...
I don't see why there has to be sequels where the main character who didn't get a love interest, suddenly gets one. They are almost all awful, and don't really serve a purpose to me. Not everyone has to have a love interest, as there are people perfectly fine without one, and it seems like whatever character they were in the first movie, gets butchered to make way for this new person in their lives. A love interest should enhance who you are as a person, not strip you of who you were down to a love-struck moron. The stories they're thrust into generally aren't anything special, either. This is just my two cents, though.
Think that's bad you should see how worse sequels are when they are written and directed by people who have no idea what they are doing or have a single understanding of the source material -Star Wars Sequel Trilogy-
Did anyone notice at 1:35 the townsfolk drop out of the frame as they head down the stairs? That's pathetic for Disney.
Omg i missed that the first time but that was horribly BAD. Was that even neccesary?
Was this movie necessary?
Obviously not. Im not even sure how it was funded all the way through..
One of the great mysteries. I wonder how many pay cuts went into making this stinker.
And just like that,there gone,Like....(Kisses)....Like an Angel's Kiss.(JonTron Reference) :)
Madeline is literally the most basic character I have ever seen. Appearance wise, personality wise, basically everything about her is so generic.

+aenjgeal It's probably worse if you actually watch the movie.
+aenjgeal The visuals were too distracting for me. I mean, in the first movie it showed how easily he could scale the monastery and took great detail to show how high he was, this one looked like he was just climbing a giant banana in lemon pudding.
It's not terrible per se, but it's not in tune at all and his diction just sounds.. amateurish. And we're talking Tom Hulce, someone who has sung amazingly in not just other parts of this movie but throughout his career as an actor.
Bailey Fox It sounds in tune to me.
finally, someone at least MENTIONS Fantasia as a Disney lineup film

I thought he was going to say-
"Coincidence? I think not."

+Michael Maximus XD
Michael Maximus That was funny on so many levels! I'm subbing to you!
just jumping from the 1st movie animation to the 2nd tv quality animation is painful enough
So the first Hunchback is considered one of the darkest Disney movies because of things like genocide. The Incredibles has that as well but no one ever considers it to be dark. Is it because they portrayed it differently?
Probably because Hunchback came out first. People got used to it.
Because Huntchback came out in a time where the subject was more touchy to be spoken around children. Not to mention that it deals with a real people/ethnicity, and not superheroes.
The Incredibles is a superhero movie. Mortal peril is more or less to be expected.
The sequel should have had you doing this commentary over it. This makes it both hilarious and watchable.
sheesh, did this movie hire the composers from swam princess? yuck. (the songs are lame, but swam princess kinda lodged itself in my childhood, so its my guilty pleasure)
(and by the way, I've ALWAYS though how encrusting a bell with gems is useless for two reasons: first, as pointed, will affect it's tune and sound, making it probably not very smooth. Second, the constant ringing would CRACK all the gems. Yea...a bell rings with a heavy, solid pendulum hitting it's inner walls. Putting something like gems inside it will make the pendulum jackhammer all those gems to pieces)
In other words, it may be "beautiful on the inside" but it's completely impotent
Why is it that 95% of sequels result in finding love?
Kitsune Fyora Actually, the vast majority of the direct to video Disney sequels are about the children of their predecessors' protagonists. (Lion King 2 is about Simba's daughter, Kiara, Lady and the Tramp 2 is about Lady and Tramp's son, Scamp, and Little Mermaid 2 is about Ariel's daughter, Melody. Just to name a few.)
Brother bear 2
What Hunchback of Notre Dame 2? There isn't a sequel. It doesn't exist. Nope. There has never ever been a sequel to the Hubchback of Notre Dame.
well you sir are much better at forgetting horrifyingly horrible sh** than i am
LE JOUR D'AMOUR YOUR SONG IS IN THE AIR
Yep! Just like how there never was and never will be a movie of A:TLA. Nope. Nor are there any other Star Wars movies out there aside from the trilogy we all know and love, and there are also only three Indiana Jones movies and there will NEVER be anymore than that.

There was also no beauty And The Beast sequels.
I didn't think that "Aladdin and the King of Thieves" was that bad...
+The Banana Games Neither was this. It's bad, but not THAT bad. Disney has had worse sequels.
I like all three Aladdin movies
Robin Williams is in King of Thieves.
Sinba's Pride (while it is also worth watching at the same time because I'd likely give it as much stars as Jambareeqi gave it out of 5) and Stitch Has a Glitch are DisneyToon Studios films that are just watchable, Aladdin and the King of Thieves is more than worth watching (like its oldest predecessor) and The Hunchback of Notre Dame II is one of the many movies that give straight-to-video films a reputation that looks nearly as bad as Quasimodo in The Hunchback of Notre Dame II.
i usually have no problem with disneysequels. i think they are a bit overhated. however,i can see why this one is hated. i only did not notice it was a piece of cheaply made drawings because i was a kid who literally watched anything not insulting and found it passable
Somebody had their life savings in one pocket..?
Hey, just like the townspeople in Assassin's Creed 2!
