Remember when the original Disney Hunchback story ended with Quasi not having a relationship but was given a better ending of public acceptance and friendship? This movie ruined that

[@VNightmoon]

I love that ending. Disney should do more endings like that.

[@BlaximilianD00d]

Lance Clearman Quazi cared more about his freedom than love. He just got caught up in his feelings for a chick that didn't like him like that. He cared more for his freedom than getting the girl.

It didn't have to ruin it; it was just the bad quality. After all, just because the hero doesn't get the first girl he falls in love with doesn't mean he has to never get any girl, ever.

[@Nightman221k]

Yeah, Love Never Dies is one of the most disgusting examples of bad fanfiction stories that ever tried to get to passed off as canon. I'm sorry but when everyone gets the Ron the Death-Eater trope in order to make the Phantom (an obsessed stalker who strangles people) look like he deserves Christine it's utter shit. And I love how obtuse it is with how it has Raoul painted as the bad person, yet Christine is the one who slept with Erik the night before their wedding and lied for 10 years him being the baby daddy. She's a huge bitch to do that and not only that but it undoes her conviction that she won't be used by a stalker when she turns her back on him in the end of the first one. They try to make Erik look deserving of love yet still have him make threats to Christine about killing her son if she won't sing his milquetoast sappy love song (Love Never Dies is the most generic boring love ballad). Sorry but I'll stick to the original where the characters weren't 180 depictions of themselves.

[@DeepEye1994]

[@thekungfukid1990]

MegaSoulhero

[@dracocrusher]

Hunchback got into a lot of really deep symbolism and religious parallels and themes that really worked and really stuck out because it's stuff that no other film that I've heard of has really been able to tackle in the same way with subtlety and complexity to its characters. BUUUUTTT, at the same time, it's still a Disney film and it felt like they were still trying to shove stuff that just didn't fit into an otherwise great, dark, narrative purely for the sake of being able to market to kids. At the heart of the film was this great story but then, in the background, there's just this weird kids' film schlock that at least heavily felt like it was ordered from the executives instead of actual creative choices made by the writers behind the actual film. And those parts held it back. So, instead of giving us the well-written darker narrative we should have gotten, what do we get? The story that the people behind the 'kids movie' parts of the original wanted to tell and, big surprise, it's as hokey and forced gargoyle 'jokes' and stuff were in the original. It seems obvious where this shitfest came from, they took EVERYTHING that didn't work in the original and decided to throw it into a blender to try and play it safe and it just ends up as a giant flaming mess instead of something that could have been actually interesting and touched on some good material.

[@sukunasgaylover]

Imagine the staff at Disney talking about creating this movie in a meeting. "So you know that one movie we made that was arguably the darkest movie that we've ever made, is critically acclaimed, and had an amazing story, as well as one of the creepiest and powerful villains we've ever had? Well, how about we take away the villain, and all of the dark moments we had in the first one, and made even more time with the gargoyles than the previous one. Wouldn't that make an excellent movie?" *Animator raises their hand* "Yes?" "Actually, that sounds insanely awful, especially considering the great movie that came before it." *"YOU'RE FIRED"*

[@Monica17N]

I think a better sequel for the Hunchback of Notre Dame II would be about Quasimodo's father. Cause we know the mother dies, but the father gets arrested and taken away at the beginning of the movie, we don't know what happens to him. Maybe he escaped and then he returns to reunite with Quasimodo. That would be interesting

[@ClaudetteVioletta]

Just like an "Aladdin 3"?

[@SpicePrincess1890]

I always assumed, the guy that was found with his mother was a companion or friend, but not her lover. When looking at Quasi, mostly due to his complexion, features, and hair color, I always imaged that his father might have been a Frenchman. But the Gypsies could be any combination of races and features too, so there's no telling. Still, it would have been a lot more interesting to find out more about his father or his family and roots in general, than whatever tripe this movie was.

[@robbywilliamson4152]

The animation studio angle was interesting. I didn't that they were attached to all those good products before Hunchback 2. One thing I dislike about a lot of these Disney sequels is how low the stakes are. Hunchback 1: Frollo wants to exterminate the Gypsies and use Esmeralda to satisfy his lust. Hunchback 2: some guy wants to steal a bell, how riveting.

[@Delta_Aves]

There are a lot of things I hate about Hunchback II; the stupid script, bland and annoying characters, awful animation, the fucking Gargoyles and this film's mere existence, but the one thing I hate about it most is the new villain. In the original, we had a villain (Frollo) who was dark, cold, twisted, perverted, xenophobic, blasphemous, psychopathic and somewhat of a pyromaniac. Here, this guy (Sarousch) is just a petty thief with an unhealthy obsession with himself. No.........just no. Lets face it, Frollo is what made the majority of the original Hunchback so awesome.

[@BetsywarlordofnoodlesLee]

What to do for a notre-dame 2.... They did the obvious and trite "get him a girlfriend." Cuz they shallow. The other obvious answer that doesn't completely crap on the first one is "find his relatives." Like, learn more about his ma what died. Maybe bring in a little bit of the original book. Maybe we learn His dad was a frenchman accidentally outs his mom to frollo for being a romani which leads to her running with quasi in the beginning of the first movie. Her body is dumped with the other "criminal" bodies and his dad in his remorse starves to death hanging with mom. Quasi's search for his parents ends seeing his parent's skeletons together. All interwoven in wacky "search for my past" hijink plot.

[@daniellavaladez9538]

Such an insult to one of the greatest Disney movies ever made.

[@HisAutisticKnight]

Personally I think it would have been much more compelling if they focused more on Sarousch tricking Madellaine into thinking the world is a dark cruel place. He does say that to her early on the film and I couldn't help but think they could've dove more into that. Like she could relate to Quasimodo in how they both were tricked into how the world works. Wouldn't that have been more interesting? That would have made so much more sense and would have made Quasimodo and Madeline's relationship stronger.

I completely agree with you Critic. Of all the Disney sequels they have created, this one is definitely in the top 5 if I were doing a list of the absolute worst Disney sequels. Right up there with Cinderella 2, The Fox and the Hound 2, Lady and the Tramp 2 and the Beauty and the Beast sequels. The Hunchback of Notre Dame is probably one of Disney's darkest and most unique animated films. Why? Because it was willing to go places that the other films wouldn't in order to tell it's story. Judge Frollo was the very essence of evil. He is probably one of Disney's darkest villains in my book. He brainwashed Quasimodo into believing he was a monster, he tried to seduce Esmeralda and then burn Esmeralda alive when she refused him (not to mention burning all of Paris down trying to find her) and lets not forget the scene where the people literally throw Quasimodo on a wheel and torture him. The villain in this one is just a pompous, boring peacock who uses a pretty girl to get what he wants. The sequel is just watered down, painfully acted, and its message is supposed to be sweet and charming but it comes off as boring and cliched because they put no creativity into it, unlike in other Disney films. Granted, Disney has produced some sequels that have been good. The Rescuers Down Under even surpassed the original as a far superior film. This one, on the other hand, failed miserably.

[@eliseserenity8876]

I think if I were to somehow "fix" this movie is to add another character seemingly similar to Quasimodo. Say this new character also has some sort of physical flaw like Quasimodo that most people would shun her for. Quasimodo could form a crush based on this because he assumes that she and him must have a lot in common and he thinks he knows who she is. But she could also be working for the circus and turns out to be a villain, willing to betray people because people betrayed her for her looks. This is when you could have the other love interest, Madeline, stand out more because she is willing to be more open to Quasimodo despite his looks and is then revealed to have her own backstory where she felt alone and abandoned. I think this kind of story could reverse the message of the first movie. The first movie taught not to judge people based on different appearances, but this idea for the second movie could have a moral of not assuming you know someone just because they look like you. Maybe it is also pretty corny and cliche but that's how I might rewrite this movie. Thoughts? Criticisms? :)

[@carlottarobbins7005]

Hmm, that's a good idea, actually...

[@jonathansefcik473]

I remember seeing this for the first time when I was a little kid and even then I thought it was lame.

"Get It? GET IT!?"

[@LOTWStudios]

Personally, I think this is the worst Disney sequel, at least out of the ones I've seen!

[@herrflantier3739]

same here.

[@godot8694]

So you probably haven't seen the beauty and the beast ones

[@godot8694]

@Yoyo Mackoy my favourite is lion king 2. I legit liked it more than the first one. I also have a soft spot for lilo and stitch 2 and kronk's new groove

[@kristinahuchison2511]

@@godot8694also Pocahontas 2. That one was sh*t

[@giovanniorellana2200]

Also, it's Quasimodo is one word LOL

[@SaurAuteur]

"I don't even know how to fix it. I mean what would you do with Hunchback of Notre Dame II" That's easy, I would throw it into the fireplace

[@Lunaneko.14]

I'm guessing its the same idea about Pocahontas as a lot of people bitched about the historical accuracy then boom PocahontasxJohn Rolfe. With Hunchback a lot of people were sad Quasi didn't get the girl then boom generic love interest for Quasi. Although I have to admit as much as I haaaaated this movie I still listen to I'm Gonna Love You by Jennifer Love Hewitt because it is kinda good. But watching one of my all time favorite heroines (Esmeralda) reduced to this nearly fucking killed me as a kid.

[@Catilena1890]

"What would you do with Hunchback of Notre Dame 2 to fix it?" Maybe not make it in the first place? I am convinced the sequel was made literally to give Quasi a love interest that works out because some people didn't like that he didn't end up with Esmerelda in the first movie. Which is dumb because that destroys the inner message that just because you are nice to someone, they may not fall in love with you, and sometimes doing something good for the sake of being good is its own reward.

[@Vercalos]

I'm marginally surprised you didn't cover *Cinderella III: A Twist in Time* after doing *Cinderella II: Dreams Come True*

[@Nattegoya]

Vercalos al'Corlin He's reviewing the movies in order based on their release date. He'll reach Cinderella III eventually.

[@Vercalos]

Chilly Ah. I forgot Aladdin started off the sequels.

[@Nightman221k]

I hope he reviews that one. It was the best sequel in my opinion. It made Cinderella pretty determined and sneaky and I love that. Plus the animation was great and the twisted use of the magic was pretty surprising to see come from Disney (the warped carriage ride with Lucifer driving was a really creepy twist on the happy carriage scene in the original).

[@thetrashghost21]

The first movie is a masterpiece in my eyes and is my favorite Disney adaptation ever. I absolutely refuse to acknowledge this movie's existence whenever possible. The pure fact that Disney made this happen frustrates me to the core. Thanks for giving this sequel a thorough thrashing.

[@edwardelric880]

No Frollo=instant garbage. Never mind any of the other problems with the movie.

[@jessicaabbott10]

I don’t know if I should be glad or mad that Tony Jay is nowhere in this film. Because I love him as Frollo, but I would see his character trashed in this crap sequel..

[@johnmartin4119]

I feel bad for the kids who enjoyed this film as a kid but sadly grew up, rewatched and appreciated the brilliance of the first one, and then rewatched this only to be entirely disappointed

[@clarkkent952]

One day I wish for Nostalgia Critic to do all of the American Tail movies

[@surenity766]

He's teased it on occasion and implied that he dislikes all but the first one but has never given his true thoughts on the sequels. Fievel Goes West was good but flawed in my opinion. I find the direct-to-video ones mediocre, not as bad as they could have been but not really good either and surely not as good as the original.

[@marybright710]

I loved Hunchback, so this film was just sad.

[@ryanstauffer119]

I honestly didn't know about the existence of this sequel until just a couple days ago and decided to watch this video to see if I should watch it

[@cpotisch]

TMS actually did not do the animation here. It was Disney Television Animation’s Japan-based sub-unit.

[@nelsonguerrero1952]

Call me crazy. But i thought it was nice to give quasi a love interest. But i will agree the a sequel to this is most certainly unnecessary.

[@joyunicycle]

I don't mind him getting a girlfriend as much either, as long as the plot holes were fixed, the characters made more interesting, maybe make the girlfriend suicidal with back up reason and Quasimodo helping her, the villain being legitimately threatening (possibly abusive), develop the romance rather than do nothing with it, the story more thought provoking, and getting rid of the pointless bell and especially the gargoyles.

[@AxelWedstar411]

Most valuable object in France is kept in a church with little to no security. Disney sequel logic at it's finest.

[@melissalalonde6998]

the first movie is one of my favorite disney films of all time, so i was ecstatic when i saw that they made a sequel. i watched the first 3 minutes before bailing because of the animation.

[@Chris-qo4rt]

Going from a guy who wanted to burn Paris to the ground to some dude that wants to steal a bell is so unbelievably petty

[@Netizpossible]

Screw the Bee Movie script. The Hunchback of Notre dam 2 script is where is the real meme here.

[@BinguDingus]

You know what would have been a better sequel? Frollo taking the form of a firedemon, escaping hell and taking an army of demons with him to get Esmeralda, him burning city over city, until all of France is covered in fire and ashes. That would be kinda awesome, I dunno.

[@JazGalaxy]

1:22 is some of the most disturbing animation I've ever seen. He totally decapitates her with his hand.

[@AngelJuliet]

I never understood how the kid doesn't have the skin tone of Esmerelda. She has dark black hair and brown eyes and tan skin. How does that kid come out looking blonde and blue eyed?

Oh God, the memories... I remember having just watched the first film, and saw this, and... in my amazement from the previous film, I thought with excitement, "Gosh! I didn't know there was a sequel! Man, I wonder what they could possibl-" and then nope, nope, just whole lotsa nope. After all this time, my face still scrunches up like Lindsay's pug when I watch this... just... nngh...
