The worst part of this movie is the fact that they made Hades the villain even though he was lowkey the only Olympian to maintain a stable and loving marriage

[@123iceboy]

Well his marriage was still fucked up cause it began by him kidnapping Persephone and them making a deal that she had to stay with him for half the year, every year. So yes he is the one god that does less awful shit to his spouse. However calling that a stable and loving marriage is a stretch.

[@TsukiNaito1]

I think this is because they couldn't get away with the themes of Zeus sticking his lightening bolt into everything whilst being married to his jealous sister-wife in a KIDS MOVIE. So they made Hera the mother of Hercules and Hades the villian to tell the story in a way that wouldn't get parents all worked up about it being inappropriate for children.

Fun Fact: The “nymph” kissing Phil at the end is actually the Goddess of Love, Aphrodite. This is previously stated by Hades when he crashes Hercules’ birthday party and mockingly compliments her outfit in the Spanish dub and her identity is confirmed in the Hercules TV show. This also raises three concerns with this depiction: 1. In myth, Aphrodite is married to Hephaestus, who was giving Zeus the thunderbolts during the Olympus fight scenes in the movie, which makes the make out session an instance of Aphrodite cheating on her husband. 2. This scene would be regrettably accurate to myth, since Aphrodite cheats on Hephaestus with as many people as she likes, she even has the hots for Ares, the God of War, and doesn’t even bother to hide it whatsoever. And 3. This is a hidden cheating scene of Greek Mythology lore adapted into a DISNEY animated feature, which was, is and will continue to be watched by hundreds of CHILDREN and parents all over the globe without most people knowing or maybe someone knowing but finding it to be an interesting, mythology geek Easter Egg like most of us do.

[@Good_Boy_3000]

It's worst than you think. Ares is Hephestus's brother, full-blood brother in some version. Zeus and Hera have had two children tops.

[@ddgould17]

reptile sceptile Well if you want to get technical, Zeus and Hera did love each other, it was just a very awful relationship with Zeus’ cheating and Hera killing the mortals that slept with him, even if the women didn’t know the man was Zeus. And the outcast backstory was far from what actually happened to Heracles (Greek name for Hercules). He had his own family until Hera made him go insane and kill his wife and children. Not exactly family friendly. His trials were to get redemption for killing his family and forgiveness from Hera.

[@madih4586]

Should have sinned Hades being a villain when he was the most chill god. And sinned the lack of Persephone.

[@amandabutcher23]

I think there's actually a brief shot of Persephone in the background in Olympus (at the end, I think) standing behind Demeter. She's pink and has a headband or crown or something that looks like flower petals. It's possible the movie just took place before Hades kidnapped her.

Well, the Disney version goes on to link all characters in a way in the Descendants movies. Hades and Maleficent have a kid named Mal. Maleficent is completely crazy, so Hades bounced when Mal was a baby. He goes on to have two, maybe three more children from one or two more women.

3:13 To answer your question, that's because the ancient Greeks actually had seven planets, but two of them were the Sun and Moon, and Earth was considered the center of the universe.

“Herc’s parents did nothing when he when missing” Me: summary of Zeus

[@MrSuperTeenGohan]

In the movie the muses says that they send out all the gods to look for him, but only found him after he had become mortal. Later Zeus explains that only gods can live on Olympus. It is shown and told that Zeus and Hera were very upset about all this. The logical conclusion to all that, is that there's a universal law even above that of the gods, that means they couldn't do anything to let Herc back in without having Herc become a true hero. Zeus did do whatever they could for him when he went missing, at least within the absolute rules established by the movie. You could argue that Zeus would have punished Hades for this, but his friendly interaction with Hades in the beginning and his surprise when he saw Hades overthrow Olympus shows that Zeus was not aware Hades was the culprit, and with Herc, a baby, being the only witness, there wasn't really that many ways for him to find out.

So who can be made into a villan that the majority of people won't question? Hades? He's in charge the under world. Thus Satan=hades. Disney had an older cartoon where Hades is literally Satan.

There's also the rather big issue that back in the day it was believed VIPs like kings and heroes were the only ones qualified for the best afterlife, and regular people were consigned to wander as mindless ghosts.

14:27 "... isn't he just strong?" Yes. And oddly enough, this about the only thing this movie gets correct from the myths, ironically. Zeus makes a VERY big deal about his strength, even going so far as to brag about it in The Iliad: Zeus: (summarised) "COME TEST ME gods and goddesses. Not only would I beat you all in tug-of-war, but I will EASILY pull you all _AND THE ENTIRE EARTH!_ To drive home the point of my superiority, I'll snag the rope on the edge of Olympus and leave it, and you all dangling in mid air, just for fun." Perhaps more importantly, Zeus *NEVER* HAD THE ABILITY TO GENERATE LIGHTNING OUT NOTHING. The lightning bolts were _A GIFT_ to him from the (O.G.) Cyclopes. It's implied they taught Hephaestus how to forge them also; presumably so they can team up and produce them faster. Zeus not only could not produce lightning ex nihilo, he had two minor goddesses always close by to hand him his bolts named Astrape and Bronte. He even kept quite a few in storage as well! Athena aparently had a spare key, but I guess it was usually too much trouble to walk over to the store room and fetch some.

Sin 57: just wanted to point out that historically speaking the Greeks viewed weak elderly people as burdens except the Spartans surprisingly. In Spartan culture men typically died young due to them being a warrior society so anyone who was old was held with much respect since in their country you reaching that age meant you fought countless battles and somehow survived to live a long time. There's this really cool story where the Greeks had a huge event and the arena was packed and nobody was willing to give up their seat for this frail old man, the crowd taunted him for being so old and doubled over in laughter when they saw him heading towards the Spartan section since they had a reputation for being brutes that would start a brawl with anyone for the smallest thing. To everyones surprise ALL the Spartans got up and offered, almost arguing amongst themselves as to who would have the honor to give up their seat. When asked by an Athenian why they did that, one Spartan simply replied: "In a profession such as ours where men die young the long lived should be honored and respected". Which is where some scholars believe we get the saying "fear the old man in a profession where men die young"

[@TheAwkwardGamer]

Funnily enough, despite being seen as the brutes of the Greek world, the Spartans were actually more equal than Athens, the birthplace of freaking democracy. Women could own land and were the last line of defense if Sparta was invaded (they didn't go out to fight battles with men, but trained with the men to prepare for the event that an invasion wiped out all soldiers), however they couldn't own public office (which you could forgive because of the time and all). I even think it was seen to be dishonourable to even harm your wife/daughter (except in said battle training, where you'd expect some injuries). Slaves could rise/earn their freedom and could become high valued Spartans if they worked hard enough. Athens, on the other hand, viewed women as second-class citizens, forbidding them from even going to the agora/market (which lots of women ignored). If you were born a slave, you'd die a slave in Athens. Foreigners were also second-class citizens, so only Athenian-born (with two Athenian parents) men were equal.
