/christian/ - Christian Discussion and Fellowship

>Disney

I never watched it, I just thought it was dumb how they made a serious tragic story have dancing gargoyle friends in it.

My kids liked it. I found it silly.

I loved it though I'm biased since this was a film from my childhood. Objectively, it is a terrible adaptation and I don't know why Disney thought it was a good idea to adapt it. It's the most undisney thing they could have adapted.

Despite the silliness, the few parts (typically the darker parts) were very well done and I love the opening music number and Hellfire. The rest of the music was forgettable.

(((Disney))) pozzed the story beyond recognition.

It's terrible. Frollo was a flawed protagonist, not a villain. Also get those gypsies out of here. It's one of the worst things Disney made pre-21st century.

What are you proposing I should think of it?

Frollo was a pretty accurate depiction of the average catholic

The original story was against the church, or at least "organised religion"

I like how they made the Archdeacon not be evil, and saw right through Frolo's bullshit.

I also like how Frolo is a great example of the sort of Christian who Jesus would say "I never knew you" to.

The imagery was really nice as well. The opening sequence, with the statues of Jesus and all the Saints staring at Frolo, underlining the point the Archdeacon is making - You cannot hide your evil behind excuses and justifications to God.

Hellfire was nice as well, although my favorite sequence is when Frolo falls to his death - The Gargoyle he is clinging to transforms into a demon, and as he falls, he falls into a lake of fire - Pretty clear he is being dragged to hell for what he did.

Its okay for a children's movie. Has a good moral to it, even if it was accidental - You cannot hide your sins from God.

Forgot to mention - It is nothing like the book, that has only two morally good characters in it. Quasimodo is a murderous, kinslaying monster, while that guard captain is a terrible person who seduces a young girl and then let's her be burned alive because… He simply can.

There was nothing even approaching sexual touching in that video. Are you one of those people who thinks any sort of physical contact is a bad thing? It's a big part of forming bonds with people.

I watched the first two minutes and honestly I have no idea what to say.

Wait I do.

Titus 1:15 To the pure, all things are pure; but to the defiled and unbelieving, nothing is pure. Indeed, both their minds and their consciences are defiled.

I haven't seen it, but Hellfire is awesome. Not only is it great music, the lyrics are great as well: the act of contrition in latin gives great contrast and a reality check to Frollo's lines blaming everyone but himself for the temptations he's faced with and goes through many (if not all?) of the deadly sins until he finally gives in to his temptation.
