Sarah: "..it is the 1997 classic Hercules" Me: "honey I think you mean HUNKules"

[@CHOCOCHIPSx]

I love how hades was the one who started "what are those" when he saw pain and panic wearing hercules merchandise shoes.

[@anthonywhitemagician]

You totally overlooked Danny DeVito as Phil - he was awesome!

[@joelmccoy1989]

to add to the cameo by Scar. In the Lion King, Zazu tells Mufasa that Scar would make a lovely throw rug. Foreshadowing much?

[@claris3056]

I watched Hercules for the first time in about ten years last year, after I'd studied some Greek art and architecture, and in the very opening narration of the film where there's sort of a museum, so many of things you see are the most famous pieces of Greek art ever! I couldn't believe how many specific sculptures and vases I'd studied were actually in the film. I love all the elements from other myths they chuck into Hercules as well, there are an insane amount of references, it's so fun!

[@mirandaperry1889]

It really is like a whole other movie once you've learned so much of the references to mythology. Like it goes from being a funny movie to "oh my god this is great"

[@laurengarcia3838]

Are you telling me I could've had Bowie as a Disney villian?! Wow, my heart aches more lol. The Hercules parade they had at Disneyland is still one of my top 5 parades. This movie is way too underappreciated.

[@captaintaco2345]

Oh my god, David Bowie as Hades would have been awesome, but nobody can beat James Woods.

[@Dez13dreamer]

I would love to see a down to disness of The Lion King.

[@williamfancher200]

My absolute favorite Disney Animation. I watched it so many times as a child, I ruined the VHS tape. We reunited when it was released on iTunes in the 2000s... Hercules is my inspiration, both in styling and storytelling. The color palette, the music, and characters... I loved it. I still love it. I will always LOVE it.

[@79animefreak1]

please do meet the robinsons! it is so underrated and i love the movie so much. and i mean who cant resist a soundtrack with the jonas brothers and all american rejects?

[@JonasAlmostFamous]

Yay! I have been one of the people requesting Hercules for months haha I love this movie so much

[@derekcullen3965]

A wild Jona was spotted! For like the seventh time! I've got to stop running into you!

[@classifiedclassified9271]

MULLIGAN

[@jananihariram9703]

Jona!! I love your videos,they are Hilarious and I just wanted to tell you that you are an amazing and beautiful person,keep doing what you're doing 😄 Bye!

[@ParadoxFreak]

Also the Fates and Grey Sisters were fused together in the film. In Greek mythology, the Fates wove out an individuals life through their tapestry. The Grey Sisters were more wicked and blind with the exception of 1 single eye and tooth that was shared among the three and would constantly fight over them.

[@isaiahadams1208]

I like everything about Hercules. The imagery, the cast, the way they used CGI, and how different it is from the original legend

[@BloodyRomance1313]

As a child, I was annoyed that they didn't stick to the original tale. As an adult yeah...I get why. The movie is very much Superman, but it's cute and it's got a lot of energy. I love the Muses. Love Meg. I always enjoy rewatching the flick.

[@SilviaSnowland]

Yeees! I was waiting for this episode of Down to Disness!!!! Loved it!!

[@Kayleigh]

Hercules is one of my favorite Disney movies, and Hades is my overall favorite Disney villian. I'm so glad you made this video! It was awesome to learn new stuff about the movie that I didnt know!

[@thekirstenanderson]

I've waited for this for so long! So happy 😍

[@AlyssaRooPew]

Mulan pleeeease

[@heyitschevonne6322]

yess

[@jd8284]

YESSS

[@yensiddisney913]

you should do mary poppins!

[@scottstephen3697]

She only does animated movies but that would be cool.

[@mirandaperry1889]

+Scostrich then she can do half of Mary poppins! Hahaha

[@yensiddisney913]

+Miranda Perry I never even thought of that!

[@katyjaneboag3229]

If you want to know a bit about the true story of Mary poppins you could watch "Saving Mr Banks" it's a really good movie

[@yensiddisney913]

+KatyJane Boag I've seen it

[@Beanaroo]

I always get so excited for these every month! Keep up the good work!

[@theweirdio8582]

Yay, I've been waiting for you to do this movie!

[@JustinCritzMusic]

Gahhh! Love this Sarah!! Hercules is definitely one of my all time favorites! So thanks for all of the hard work you put into this 🙌🏻

[@janineh5988]

I really enjoy your Down to Disness videos. I learn so much, thanks!

[@izzyrodriguezz]

Can you do Mulan next please 😁😁

[@heyitschevonne6322]

yep

[@LivingJustForFun]

YASSSS!!! I was waiting so long for this!!

[@LoStDaRkAnGeL]

Another rad Down to Disness- thanks Sarah! One of my fave series on KZbin. 😊

[@han_a_mania]

This is definitely my favorite Down to Disness so far!

[@jennifergreely141]

Your hair is always different in these (and it's always amazing!). I love these videos so much- thank you for doing these!

[@madelinebeatlesgirl]

Yes! Hercules is one of my favorites and is so underrated. AMAZING soundtrack!!

[@ClaudiaSteichen]

I've been waiting for this!!!!!!

[@theaudiobookaficionado]

Such a good episode! You did a great job on this. :) I think it's interesting that Hercules was meant to lighten things up because even though it is really funny, I've always remembered it as one of the darker Disney films. It's a great movie either way and the music is seriously so good. Roger Bart is the best.

[@Danthe25Man]

You learn something new everyday! Hercules is one of my favorite Disney movies! Loved the one scene where Hercules saves Meg's soul from the soul pit and he gets back his God aura! I definitely would like to see you discuss either My Favorite Martian or The Jungle Book 2! SarahSnitch, great work as always and LOVE your hair and makeup!😍👍🏼

[@erika4927]

I love this so much! My favorite Disney movie!!

[@AlyssumIvy]

I think this has been my favorite down to disness so far! I really need to watch hercules again I haven't seen it in like 500 years!!!

[@WhyMeghan]

YAY THIS IS MY ABSOLUTE FAVORITE

[@HillaryinDisneyland]

Your makeup is actual perfection. Such goals

[@SydneyYokley]

YES MY FAVORITE MOVIE!!! I loved this 😍

[@HeIsWeFan1]

Oh my gosh, when I saw this in my sub box I literally screamed! Hercules is my favorite Disney movie! Great job Sarah!

[@evolgina]

[@FreakyB12]

Yesssss!!!!! Loved the episode it's my favorite Disney movie of all time. Next up either Princess and the Frog or Mulan.

[@mexiaznann]

Danny Devito as Phil was spot on!

[@jacksonholt9029]

[@alysawasem1585]

[@juliarm4636]

I'm so happy you did hercules! it's my absolute favorite Disney movie. also I love your lipstick :)

[@Soul270952]

Live for this

[@mirandaperry1889]

Literally spent the whole episode responding back "honey you mean HUNKules" whenever you said Hercules. So there's that hahaha I LOVED THIS EPISODE! There was just so much great information in this! I remember the first time watching this movie again after learning about mythology at school and being like "oh that's actually a super hilarious joke!" Haha

[@user-zg8vr6uw5y]

Plz do the Rescuers. Plz

[@catecarson8100]

Yassss!!!!!

[@cristinasjourney]

Finally! This is my fave movie!

Yey! This is great! 😊

[@drmariopepper4354]

Great Video!!! Thank you!

[@LauraIngrid]

Love this series

[@_lyssarose]

Since you mentioned it in this video, I think you should do Meet the Robinsons!! SUCH an underrated movie and it's absolutely beautiful. I love the message behind it. I really love Down to Disness

[@kristin2515]

tangled!

[@derekcullen3965]

Hercules is one of my favorite Disney movies becuase it's just fun to watch!

[@alli249]

Love this, Hercules is so important! The Great Mouse Detective or Tangled would be great next.

[@beckiejbrown]

I LOVED THIS!

[@SarahSterling]

Hah! omg thank you for binge watching this series. You're so sweet :)

[@andreamercado9980]

[@amandagrigsby4555]

FINALLYYYYY My favorite Disney movie!!!

[@Itspavi98]

Fav movie ever 🙌🏾💓

[@thenerdybipolarmama4053]

I love your purple lip shade!

[@kimbasciano_]

Yes! Please do Beauty and the Beast, Mulan or Lion king! Love this series Sarah!

[@gourmet2276]

thanks for the information.

[@adentalia]

Fantasia or Atlantis: The Lost Empire would be cool for a future video! Awesome job Sarah :D

[@katherineandjeanette2537]

This is one of my favorites!! Thank you! :) don't forget Danny Devito was Phil!!! :) The soundtrack is one of my favorites and i love the dynamic between Hercules ad Meg. Suggestion: Pete's Dragon ~Jeanette

[@iamclassicforlife]

I love the film, but I do question a few artistic choices. I get it, but Ancient Greece with Gospel music and a Las Vegas theme? Weird, but fun, lol And I LOVE Scarfe's work for this film! Nice job Sarah! Plus, I love your makeup! :)

[@pandapal13]

you're makeup is on point today girl! so dang pretty.

[@katiaivanov9817]

I loooove Hercules ahh! I love his character so much, such a nice guy 😂

[@glasswrld]

Great video :)

[@katieleigh2807]

I bet Patrickzfilms will love this!😍🙌🏻 amazing work Sarah💖 And when you said "Hercules or should I say..." I thought you were gonna say HUNK-ules 😂😂

[@alexandermackay9636]

I love this movie so much! still voting for the black cauldron!

[@ethanbalagtas5526]

YAY MY FAVORITE DISNEY MOVIE!!!!

[@nikkipeanut]

Hercules means a lot to me. I think it's really inspiring. I have a tattoo on my ribs that says "go the distance" in Greek.

[@olimario17]

Also: The three caballeros/ Saludos amigos(Both in 1 maybe since they do go together and both are made together)

[@beckygarner1990]

I love Hercules and these videos! Please do beauty and the beast!!!❤️❤️

[@lifeofbekahh]

Cool movie, I’m currently watching the Hercules animation series on Disney plus 😊

[@MsClarissa2000]

Could you make a video on your opinion of the new design for the Tower of Terror in Disneyland?

[@kiribat1935]

I've always loved Greek and roman myths!!

[@Socratica]

The Greek mythology got all of us at Socratica so excited! Great job with the retelling. :)

[@claytonica23]

Well that was very interesting! Wow, a John Lithgow Hades would've been so bizarre. I love "Go the Distance," that's a good one to sing in the car on the way to a job interview

[@derekcullen3965]

OMG! Mickey Views right? I remember your comments from the first couple episodes!

[@claytonica23]

+Ohana Means Disney Yaaasss and I recognize you too! All us Disnerds run in the same circle. 😊 Love Mickey Views. I'm so glad that subscribers have found him, Brayden's got a great show. Of course so does our girl Sarah here!

[@StudioLindsay]

This was great! And I'd love to see an episode on Meet the Robinsons.

[@anitatinkle91]

This one and Snow White were your best ones so far! 😍

[@jasminvalerie]

Yay now you've done Hunchback and Hercules! Now to complete my holy trinity of Disney movies, I request Tangled please!

[@annacairns]

Have you ever thought of doing Black Cauldron? It's scary and dark.

[@toriandtilly]

I love James Woods so much for coming back for Hades whenever there was an opportunity. I LOVE the game Kingdom Hearts and there are very few characters in it that are voiced by their original actors but Hades is one of them and it brings so much to that world! I guess thats why there are so many cutscenes in that world compared to the others instead of text bubbles. Actually now that I think about it I don't remember Hades ever having a text bubble scene!

[@LaurensTravels]

This movie is one of my all time favorites! But wow did they really lighten up the story 😂

[@Random_Fanatic]

Meg is my favorite part of the movie. "It's been a real slice."

[@camrynspencer8902]

Yay my favorite movie

[@Amelia-ek2ig]

YAAYYYY FINALLY!!!

[@good2beborn007]

This is one of my favorite movies! I love the look of it, the music and the greek god theme.

[@SEJ101]

Two thumbs Way Up!

[@KawaiixNii]

FINALLY!!!!

[@lauras2738]

We need one for A goofy movie!!

[@allylawler597]

Can you please do the LITTLE MERMAID? I would love to here it for your next down to Disness

[@jcage1022]

Subscribed Edit: also, James stayed true to his word when he said he’d voice Hades again if Disney ever wanted him to. I’m pretty sure he returned to voice Hades in Kingdom Hearts 1 and/or 2

[@glambert169507]

I'd love to see Fantasia or Fantasia 2000 next but also i'd love to see Sword and the Stone

[@girlonabookshelf4922]

I'd love to see a Down To Disness on Brother Bear or The Black Cauldron:)

[@londoncoco2617]

The best movie!

[@kassandramiller8845]

this is my husband's favorite movie and I finally got him to Disney bound as hades. it took a lot but he agreed. yay thanks for hades
