History WesternAnimation / TheHunchbackOfNotreDameGoldenFilms

* AdaptedOut: Almost all the characters. The only characters who really averts this are Quasimodo and Pierre. Melody and Jean Claude are modified characters.

* DullSurprise: Unless you missed Pierre explaining that Quasimodo and Jean Claude are half-brothers, TheReveal will be a huge surprise to you.

* InNameOnly: The narrative is completely different. This seems more of a Beauty and the Beast story than one of the Hunchback. The [[Disney/TheHunchbackOfNotreDame Disney version]] had more to do with the source material than this. The trope also extends to the few remnants of the book, especially Quasimodo.

* StandardSnippet: The opening song has some parts of the Can Can.

* BrokenAesop: The movie is supposed to teach that TrueBeautyIsOnTheInside, but Quasimodo became beautiful, so the moral is: looks don't matter as long as you're handsome. Not helping by the fact that Quasimodo doesn't even look grotesque in the first place.

* AbledInTheAdaptation: Quasimodo's deafness from the books is absent. Not only that; [[spoiler:he ceases being a hunchback.]]
* AdaptationalAlternateEnding: [[spoiler:Quasimodo and Melody marry and supposedly will live happily ever after]], in contrast to the KillEmAll of the book.
* AdaptationalAttractiveness: Quasimodo cannot really be called ugly, unlike Victor Hugo's creepy one. [[spoiler:He even becomes handsome at the ending.]]

* BeautifulAllAlong: [[spoiler: Quasimodo was handsome.]]

* BrokenAesop: The movie is supposed to teach that TrueBeautyIsOnTheInside, but [[spoiler:Quasimodo became beautiful, so the moral is: looks don't matter as long as you're handsome.]] Not helping by the fact that Quasimodo doesn't even look grotesque in the first place.

* CainAndAbel: [[spoiler:Quasimodo and Jean Claude are brothers. The latter imprisoned the former in Notre Dame.]]

* DullSurprise: [[spoiler:Unless you missed Pierre explaining that Quasimodo and Jean Claude are half-brothers, TheReveal will be a huge surprise to you.]]

* EverybodyLives: [[spoiler: Yes, everybody lives. Including the bad guys.]]

* FourthDateMarriage: [[spoiler:Exaggerated. Quasimodo and Melody marry after having known each other for only a few days]].

* TheGrotesque: Quasimodo averts this trope. Even [[spoiler:before his appearance change]], Quasimodo isn't really ugly. [[spoiler:His hunchback status happened because his stepfather forced him to work in the cathedral.]]

* {{Hunk}}: Jean Claude, being an {{Expy}} of Gaston, is handsome and very muscular. [[spoiler: At the climax, Quasimodo is revealed to be a hunk himself]].

* KarmaHoudini: Jean Claude and his father aren't the best rulers ([[InformedAttribute or the audience is supposed to believe so in the case of the former]]) and [[spoiler:they get off scot-free. The former escaped and the latter stayed as a guest during the ending]].

* PeekABangs: Half of Quasimodo's face is covered by his hair. [[spoiler:It's not hiding any deformities like the character is supposed to have.]]
* PlotHole: Melody's song implies that her magical powers are just part of her imagination, but if that was true, that would mean the instruments aren't real and [[spoiler:therefore they couldn't tell Quasimodo not to play the bell.]] If all is real, why doesn't she escape from the jail?

* SparedByTheAdaptation: Quasimodo. [[spoiler: Well, Every One, really?]]

* UglyHeroGoodLookingVillain: Quasimodo vs. Jean Claude. [[spoiler:Subverted at the climax because Quasimodo was BeautifulAllAlong]].

** Even more grating is when they try to do a pun, by showing an image of a toe, and singing “Chateau”. A Chateau is French for a manor house, and nothing to do with feet or toes.

* CaptainObvious: "Doing anything against the law is illegal."

The story is about the hunchback of Notre Dame, Quasimodo, and a gypsy girl called Esmeralda... oops! The gypsy's actual name is [[AdaptationNameChange Melody]]. The troubles are caused by [[CompositeCharacter Jean Claude]], an arrogant, greedy killjoy who wants to stop Melody because he thinks she diminishes the taxes.

* AdaptationalAttractiveness: Quasimodo cannot really be called ugly, unlike Victor Hugo's creepy one. [[spoiler:He even becomes handsome at the ending!]]

* CompositeCharacter: Jean Claude is a composite character of Claude Frollo, his brother Jehan, Phoebus ... And [[Disney/BeautyAndTheBeast Gaston]].

** Jean Claude often has a habit of doing this. Such cases include calling himself “Le Grande Fromage” (Which translates to "The Big Cheese". Yep.), and when he uses a Lasso, he says “Le Yee Haw!”.

* BrokenAesop: The movie is supposed to teach that TrueBeautyIsOnTheInside, but [[spoiler:Quasimodo became beautiful, so the moral is: looks don't matter as long as you're handsome.]] Not helping by the fact that Quasimodo doesn't even look grotesque in the first place, as to paraphrase Phelous: "He looked ready to join a boy band."

* FatBastard: The Baron.

* HotWitch: Melody.

* VillainHasAPoint: Jean Claude complains that if people keeps celebrating, he won't have taxes. Needless to say, that's bad for the city.

* InNameOnly: The narrative is completely different. This seems more of a Beauty and the Beast story than one of the Hunchback. The [[Disney/TheHunchbackOfNotreDame Disney version]] had more to do with the source material than this. The trope also extends to the few remnants of the book.

* {{Talking Animal}}s: The Bats of Notre Dame.
* TheReasonYouSuckSpeech: Quasimodo drops one to Jean Claude, saying that he is oppressive.

** Frollo or Jean Claude or whoever has an aerosol spray can...in the Middle Ages. They also have guns, in the Middle Ages. Mmmhmm.

* CaptainObvious: "Doing anything against the law is illegal." [[SarcasmMode Thanks for that valuable insight, Jean Claude]].

* AnachronismStew: The story supposedly happens in medieval France, but in the opening song the people are wearing clothes of the 18th and 19th centuries. The Can Can appeared in 1830 and yet the opening song is a StandardSnippet of the Can Can.

* GratuitousFrench: Jean Claude often has a habit of doing this. Such cases include calling himself “Le Grande Fromage” (Which translates to "The Big Cheese". Yep.), and when he uses a Lasso, he says “Le Yee Haw!”.

** '''WebVideo/{{Phelous}}:''' ''(impersonating Pierre)'' I don't suppose you know where my lisp went?

* AdaptationalAlternateEnding: [[spoiler:Quasimodo and Melody marry and supposedly will live happily ever after]], in contrast to the KillEmAll of the book.

* InNameOnly: The narrative is completely different. This seems more of a Beauty and the Beast story than one of the Hunchback. The [[Disney/TheHunchbackOfNotreDame Disney version]] had more to do with the source material than this - even the Creator/DingoPictures version was more accurate to the book than this is.

* AdaptedOut: Almost all the characters. The only character who really averts this is Quasimodo. Melody and Jean Claude are modificed characters.

* BeautifulAllAlong: [[spoiler: Quasimodo.]]

* GratuitousFrench: Jean Claude often has a habit of doing this. Such cases include calling himself; “Le Grande Fromge”, and when he uses a Lasso, he says “Le Yee Haw!”.
** Even more grating is when they try to do a pn, by showing an Image of a toe, when they sing; “Chateau”. A Chateau is a French Manor House, and nothing to do with feet or toes!?

* CaptainObvious: "Doing anything against the law is illegal." [[SarcasmMode Thanks for that valuable insight, Frollo]].

* AdaptationalVillainy: In the book, Pierre was an unfortunate poet. Here, he's working for the BigBad.

* EverybodyLives: [[spoiler: Yes, everybody lives.]]

* OohMeAccentsSlipping: Or rather, lisp slipping in this case. In one scene, Pierre(who speaks with a lisp) briefly talks without one during a conversation with Jean Claude.
