HERCULES Clip - "If He Finds Out" (1997) Disney

[@ddthewolf]

I always wished Hercules' foster parents were given more credit, I mean yeah Zeus and Hera are his birth parents and the king and queen of the gods, but these two found Hercules and took him and raised him as their own out of love. They were even the only ones that stood by him when others were ridiculing him for his super strength before he became famous

[@Avalon64]

if I recall correctly I think Hercules' human parents had a bit more of a prominent role in the Hercules animated show spin off where he was told to go to school while training to be a hero

[@XSPBStudiosReborn67]

Wrong Zeus is the father of Heracles not Hercules because Hercules is his Roman name and this is not wrong but Hera hates Hercules and does everything she can to try and kill him in those two evil snakes they got that right but the snakes were sent by Hera not Hades and Heracles didn't just Chuck them away he snapped both there necks

[@throwaway-r6v]

Disney pretty much made their own story. Hercules is not Hera’s son, that’s why his name is Heracles, it means glory to Hera or something, because she wanted him dead since he was a product of one of Zeus’ affairs

[@katherineknapp4370]

❤❤❤

[@Wings_of_Genshin]

Heracles’s birth parents in the actual myth were Alcmene and Zeus. Hades was never the villain in this story, and it was actually Hera who was the villain. I do love this story though

In Greek mythology, Hades is aware of all the souls of the dead. Him not noticing Hercules soul is a tad unbelievable

[@catherineterry1111]

My theory he went to the Field of Eursyism which Disney Hades had no control of that was Zeus domain apparently. The show touched on that.

[@AsadKhan-ic9qi]

@@darkknight2850 there’s still enough logical consistency in this film.We could only assume Disney Hades had that awareness, and him not noticing if he does have it is a pretty big plot hole, the likes of which I don’t think are in this movie.

[@NobodyC13]

I think I read somewhere that the Greeks (or Romans) believed infants and young children don't have souls and they don't get one until they hit puberty. Until they, they wear charms around their necks to ward off evil spirits that seek to inhabit "soulless" children. Maybe Hades not noticing Hercules isn't dead is because there wasn't anything to look for.

[@christopheracosta2043]

In fact, it was Zeus disguised as king Amphityon impregnated Alcmene to give birth to Hercules.

[@eduardo7677]

Hades was arguably the "best" god you could come across. There's barely any case where he messed with a mortal, and when he did, most of them had it coming. He did trick Persephone into marrying him but he truly loved her and was likely the only god faithful to their partner. Compared to the atrocities commited by Zeus, anything bad Hades might have done are minor slips.

[@blobbertmcblob4888]

"He did trick Persephone into marrying him" Eh, that depends on the version of the story being told. In some versions, she marries him willingly.

[@thefisherman0074]

@@blobbertmcblob4888 yea but at the end of the day at least he loved her despite whichever story it is and by greek mythology standards that's a rarity

[@runtergerutscht4401]

Not to mention how chill he is in general. Heracles comes down to borrow his dog, but instead of being pissed he just lets him, as long as he doesn't harm the dog. He even lets him free Theseus, even after said Theseus was involved in a kidnapping attempt against his wife.

[@joelbibeault1169]

As an adopted child who's now 30, I can say with confidence his adoptive parents are the best kind of people in the world. They needed more screen time honestly, Zeus and Hera being his parents had no bearing on who he would be as a person. God's in Greek mythology can be just as terrible as good (and frankly in the actual lore most of them were scum). His adoptive parents are the ones who raised a Hero. They instilled the principal of helping others into him. Again as an adopted child who's met my birth parents it's really easy to see where some of your personality comes from, Zeus in this universe is noble and caring, but Hercules still inherited some of his cockiness. Just glad they paid some tribute in this movie to the people who raised him. I don't have any relationship with my birth mother, when I hear the word Mom I see the woman who tucked me in every night and loved me almost unconditionally. And Hercules saw that value too. As soon as he was handed the medallion that marked him as a God he was immediately excited knowing his actual parents were really important, then looked immediately guilty and assured his parents that he loved them and they were who he thought of as Mom and Dad. His adoptive mother wraps a shawl around his shoulders when he sets off to find out who he is. He never got rid of it. That's the mini cape he wears with his armor as a Hero. And there's a quick scene that shows when he became famous and rich he built his parents modest little home into a mansion.

[@gor9027]

All things considered, the villains should have easily won in this movie. Even after Pain & Panic failed to kill baby Hercules, they only added to the problems by keeping the truth from Hades as long as they did. The opportunities to strike were still there for several years before Hercules went to Phil and learned to control his strength. And then Hades fumbling on both his seemingly one sided deals with Hercules just makes their defeat look even worse.

[@dragonstormx]

Hades is an ill tempered boss who treats his bumbling goons like crap, if Pain and Panic told him that they screwed up killing a baby he was going to be pissed. Of course, he found out anyway and wasn't pleased they lied to him, so it was a no-win scenario.
