Should have been the coolest villain

Frollo, the villain judge in the play, is the character with the most potential to become the deepest villain in Disney's history.

Of course he did not in the end.

Why do I say this, I can talk about Frollo's personality at the beginning.
When he first appeared in the movie, he was singing, "He is committed to sweeping away the corruption in the city, but he can't see the corruption in himself."

In fact , he should be an upright person to some extent, if the lyrics in the play are not ironic. The meaning. Although it is not clearly reflected in the movie, my assumption is that Frollo has always been committed to maintaining peace in the town, but the IQ is relatively anxious, and he has obvious hatred and prejudice against Gypsies, which later led to a further decline in IQ. Massacre move. I made this assumption because he himself sang in the middle of the film, "I am an upright person." So, at least in his own eyes, he has always believed that what he did was just. But in some problems, especially the issue of Gypsies, he is very extreme, because he can't see the corruption in himself.

What's more interesting is that he is really raising Quasimodo. At first, he didn't kill Quasimodo because he was afraid of the gods. After throwing Quasimodo into the bell tower, he continued to deliver meals and have dinner together. Moreover, he also taught him to recognize characters, although it was all bad words. I think he had some love after raising Quasimodo, and he wanted to protect Quasimodo. The songs he sang to Quasimodo contained some sincerity. Otherwise, according to reality, can Quasimodo really be able to integrate into society smoothly? We saw in the play that the people in the small town actually have a very low tolerance for aliens, which can be seen from their attitude towards Gypsies and Quasimodo on April's Day. If Quasimodo does not appear as a hero at the end, can he really fit in? Hard to say. So Frollo did protect Quasimodo to a certain extent, at least he must think so.

Then, he actually fell in love with the heroine. I was really stunned when I watched it. I think this is the most plump villain I have ever seen. He found himself hesitated, afraid, paranoid and perverted after falling in love with the heroine. It’s true. I think he first understands that the heroine will not like him. Then, the heroine is still the gypsy he hates most. In the end, he doesn’t understand love at all, so when he discovers his love, he can only Use that method to vent: let the heroine choose between death and him.

Then coupled with the brutality, ugliness, and use of male protagonists, can the image be fuller, and can the characters be cooler! I just pointed to the last Frollo and Quasimodo staged infernal duels and love-hate.

However, he did not.

When he was slaughtering the whole city like a madness (we can attribute it to crazy love), he was stopped by Quasimodo, and later went upstairs to kill Quasimodo.

The reason why he killed Quasimodo can be attributed to the fact that Quasimodo's wings stiffened and he flew, which was of no use value to Frollo, so he went to kill him.

But the inner drama is too plain. If Frollo was hesitant and sad when he killed Quasimodo, you think you should have feelings after raising a dog for so many years, no matter how ugly. Frollo saw the little self carved by Quasimodo, did he feel a little moved in his heart? Although I say you are a monster all day long, and I named you Deformity, for someone who has no family, you are indeed the closest to my family.

One detail is very good. That was when Quasimodo finally knew that Frollo was actually killing his mother's enemy, Quasimodo could have let Frollo fall directly and die.

But he didn't.

Can't bear it after all. You insult me ​​all day, but you are the person I talk most often besides the stone statue in the bell tower. In the past years, you were the only one who looked at me without fear. You are a paranoid, but I still respect you, maybe even love you.

Finally vomit, what the hell is going on with that priest, he feels respectful, sheltering as soon as a woman appears, and then Quasimodo has lived in the church for so long and feels like he doesn't talk to each other? Can you give the kid Qassimo more care if you are sheltered?


Finally, I want to ask that currently ranked No. 1 film critic, have you watched the movie carefully, "Bambi" is a tragedy, are you fucking kidding me? In addition, I am the Little Mermaid who loves Disney. You call it the original castration, and I call it artistic freedom. 80% of the people who scolded Disney were talking about adapting traditional stories. The mermaid found true love and said that it was an insult to Edison, and Hua Mulan said that she insulted Hua when she married the general. Damn it. Current affairs are so difficult that you need to represent Edison and the entire Chinese people. Simply promulgate a law stating that all film and television works adapted from books must be word-for-word, and you will be happy if you change a word and decapitate it. Is this really interesting. Is it not good to get two perspectives through books and movies?

    In the end, Quasimodo could only be a saint silently watching the lives of Esmeralda and the rich and handsome. I was about to cry.

    To be honest, I haven't read the original book, so I don't dare to speculate on the degree of adaptation of the movie. Overall, it is a well-established reunion movie. The overall development framework of the animation is still ok. The downside is that I always feel that the dubbing does not match the characters in the animation. Quasimodo should be a cowardly and timid person, but when he starts his voice, he is full of confidence. The voice (I don't know if it's a baritone~), the heroine, the voice is too strong, as if she is always ready for battle. I also pity Quasimodo, after all, princesses are matched with princes.
