In a way, this post is basically the movie version of shower thoughts. Bear with me. After Twitter user @jazz_inmypants asked people to share bothering movie details that aren't common knowledge, his thread received quite a few interesting insights. For example, Grease (1978) might be described as a story that teaches you to change yourself until other people like you. And Belle's (Beuty and the Beast (1991)) neighbors are probably doing something shady if the village can support such an extensive bookstore when she's the only reader and doesn't even pay. The tweet by @jazz_inmypants has already received over 30K likes and 1K comments, many of which filmmaking students could definitely rework into term papers.

Altogether, a film can seem incredibly complicated, but the reasoning behind every decision nearly always comes down to how it is working with the story and how it is affecting the viewer. With that in mind, the New York Film Academy has prepared some tips for reviewing a film and coming up with your own insights.
Watch it. "Once is necessary twice is preferable," the academy wrote. "Taking notes is also a good idea and will help the writing process by making it easy to refer to your in-the-moment thoughts and reactions."
Because he wanted to look deferent than his foster apes. He shave his beard with his deceased father's knife every day.
Express your initial thoughts and support your criticism. "Professional reviewers do not shy away from telling their readers whether they thought the movie was good bad or indifferent, and in fact readers come to rely on those reviewers whose tastes reflect their own when deciding whether or not to spend their time and money. Professional reviewers also have watched a lot of movies and can express why and how they came to their criticism. Be sure to back up your thoughts with specifics–a disappointing performance, a ridiculous plot, beautiful cinematography, difficult material that leaves you thinking, and so on."
Evaluate the acting. "Many casual filmgoers will be inspired to see a movie if a favorite actor is in it, so you should probably spend a little space talking about the performances: seasoned actor in a new kind of role, brilliant performance from a rising star, excellence despite a lackluster script, dynamics in an ensemble, and so much more can be said about the actors in any given film."
Directing, cinematography, special effects... This is where your inner film geek can really shine. Consider the highlights or missteps of directors, cinematographers, costume designers and CGI magicians. What worked, what surprised, what fell short of expectations, are all great questions to address.
It's also important to look at a film’s story from a structural viewpoint. Try to to keep in mind that the vast majority of films fall into the three-act structure: a beginning, middle, and end. It's not because the screenwriters are lazy, but because the formula simply works. In screenplays, the first thing you should look out for is the inciting incident. Generally, about 10 minutes into the film, there will be a moment that forces the protagonist to exit their comfort zone and start their journey towards a new goal. Around the thirty-minute mark, there is usually a major turning point. At this moment, the hero can't go back, that signals the beginning of the second act where the majority of the film will take place. Finally, around the ninety-minute mark, the second turning point will signal the film’s drive towards both its conclusion and resolution.
Of course, some films don’t fit perfectly into the three-act structure, but the vast majority of films do and you can start to get a sense of when important moments or changes will occur when you know the general format.
Did you know that this movie is based on the German book "Das doppelte Lottchen" from Erich Kästner? The girls are Luise and Lotte from Vienna and Munich respectively. The book was written around 1945 so the story makes much more sense regarding the timeframe. Today its stupid of course but back then it wasn't that easy to keep in contact when miles apart.
They also don't tell you that Hera drove Hercules insane so that he kills his wife Megara and his 5 children
TwiceRice23 is a douche. You can tell me all the tid bits you know about Greek Mythology! It's fascinating!

If the screenwriters had stayed true to the known manuscripts of Ancient Greek mythology, this could never have been a Disney production, nor would it have earned anything better than an R rating. Like it or not, Greek mythology generally is not for the little kiddies. So a highly sanitized, selective and revisionist retelling of the stories is the only path forward if you want to make and distribute a childrens’ cartoon about “Hercules.” But then again, Greek Mythology is called “mythology” because it’s all make-believe in the first place, so who cares if the stories change in the retelling?
In summary they used the names and made their own story

I've always been bothered by US-movie adaptations of European literature and historical publications, like in this case a story drawn from Greek mythology. Either use it accurately or make up your own stories, just don't call it Hercules and then make a new, more "suitable" thing out of it. Same with Little Mermaid (a fairy tale by Hans Christian Andersen) The Three Musketeers (a book by Alexandre Dumas) etc.etc.etc...
I don't understand the argument that they changed so much of the story to make it kid-friendly. I was 7 when this came out and I didn't like it because I already knew the mythology and the movie had it a*s-backwards. There are plenty of ways to tell the actual mythology to kids, without going into the nasty details. Americans coddle their kids too much.
They changed a lot of things in Disney movies. In the real story of Ariel she doesn't get the prince and slowly dies of sea foam. In Cinderella she kills her step mother and tortured her step sisters. So this doesn't surprise me that they would change the movie Hercules as well
Or The Hunchback of the Notre Dame. That shouldn't end well. I love Disney movies, but I would prefer them to make up original stories instead of altering classics.

IDK, why people are saying the original myths would be inappropriate. I read Bulfinch's mythology at around 7 or 8. Nothing was explicit, just Zeus turned into a swan and had a baby with some woman, or a bunch of people were killed during the Trojan war. No need to change the story, just don't go into unnecessary detail. I did spend a lot of time trying to figure out the swan thing though.
Actually..Zeus didn't impregnate Leda (the woman impregnated by the swan form of Zeus) to produce Hercules. He originally slept with Danae who gave birth to Perseus. Perseus son ,Electryon, fathered Alcmene who, in turn, slept with Zeus to produce Hercules. So Hercules was Zeus's great great grandson and his son...and cousin. How twisted is that?

It was easier to digest for kids that way, I guess... Sure, the mythology is screwed up but Zeus was written to be a likeable character... The truth would have blown that out of the window. A "normal" Mom/Dad dynamic is much easier to understand for kids...
Kids watching Disney step mothers being monsters for ever, it wouldn't be a problem. Disfunctional families are "normal" in disney's univers. Kids know stories like Tom Thumb they perfectly understand that parents of heroes can be fallible.

Also in the original stories hedes was more or less a better person than Hera
Of course it's Disney. They did the same thing with Pocahontas in which the story of the real Pocahontas is really depressing.
Umm... it's a kids movie? Greek mythology involves quite a bit of sex, so it's easier for kids to understand "little brother envious of big brother" than a jealous woman. https://scontent.fsof5-1.fna.fbcdn.net/v/t1.0-9/64918077_2337409236349668_81256735381127168_n.jpg?_nc_cat=109&_nc_oc=AQnl5_vWKaapkPG1789PL0YJ1rKrzVOHGsnivfi007QUiiIXhuFrUHdHjzrKvtaR2WE&_nc_ht=scontent.fsof5-1.fna&oh=6920e73bcb8e734d550907609c53316c&oe=5DC5869D
Disney had to make it "kid friendly" , so no infidelity or incest. Zeus and Hera were brother and sister.
But It's a movie based on the myth and not a documantery. Don't expect to learn mythology or history from movies . The real knowledge is in the books.
In Greek mythology Zeus had a child with his great granddaughter (Semele) who's the daughter of harmony who's the daughter of ares and Aphrodite. Ares is Zeus' son. So yeah, Greek mythology is kinda messed up.
What did you expect? American film makers (save a few)are not known for their deep knowledge of history going back more than a few decades.Anyone remember the ditty«Cecil B deMille much against his will couldn´t put Moses into The War of Roses«? What really bothers me is that any time a High-class couple/event etc is depicted you always hear Mozart´s Salzburger Concerts.For years I played with the idea of sending a tape of alternative classical music off to Hollywood...
well, obviously, it should have been Heracles, not Hercules. amusingly, named in honour of Hera. who tried to kill him. trust me, children can handle the darker implications of greek mythology. or any. although I did get funny looks during one of the Thor films (yeah, I know it's Norse) when I burst out laughing as Odin rode in on Sleipnir. when my husband looked a bit baffled, I had to explain the origins of Sleipnir.
well, we also know Disney's track-record of keeping with the original scripts...
It’s not meant to be the story of Hercules verbatim though it’s more like a Disney movie inspired by Hercules no?
I'm pretty sure Hera, Hercules, and Zeus were not cartoon characters either.
No, they were and are completely fictional.

There are actually a few good reasons why the eagle plan would have been a lot riskier. 1) The Ring has a will of its own and often drops from the grasp of whomever holds it. If, during flight, the Ring fell, the heroes would most likely never find it again before Sauron did -- especially if it fell over Mordor or the Dead Marshes. 2) While maybe not as strong as the Eagles in the air, the Ringwraiths are quite comfortable in the skies and I'm certain the Ringbearer would be less safe aloft than on the ground, where there are hiding places and escape routes. 3) As an intelligent race of Middle-Earth, the Eagles are as susceptible to the corrupting influence of the One Ring as any other. Discord would have been sown in the ranks of the Eagles and the Heroes, and that is another complication that Gandalf probably wouldn't have risked.

It bothers me that we don't have a grasp on the fact that flawed characters are what make good fiction......or that human beings ARE "problematic" sometimes.....or that we are now expecting fictional characters to only represent the best, most 100% socially acceptable versions of mankind to the point where it borders on limiting creative freedom because we have a meltdown when someone makes a deeply flawed character.....or that we are living in a society where we are no longer able to appreciate true depth of character because we have drawn such hard lines of social acceptability......
This is a good point. On the other hand, writers slot charts with hyper-annoying traits to satisfy formulae. Consider Matt Groenig whose formula requires a Bender. Outrageous and in your face, doing outrageous and implausible things just to satisfy plot points and comedy beats... and nobody would tolerate his presence if it were real. One could make the argument you just made about soap opera characters too. But I knew a couple of girls who were soap opera addicts, and they acted exactly like the characters on TV, neither better nor worse, and in real life no one could stand being around them.

How about 'Revenge of the nerds' where a guy pretends to be someone else to have sex with a girl (rape), or even 'Sixteen candles' where Jake "gives away" his almost-passed-out-drunk girlfriend to another guy, who then sleeps with her. Really. The 80's were awful.
What is wrong with sleeping with someone? It's the sexual intercourse that can be problematic.

They should remake them starting with movie 3, imo. The first two movies might not have been as flashy as the rest, but they were much closer to the spirit and atmosphere of the books. Also Ron wasn't a comic relief moron.

Just saw Uncharted. Fun movie. But the first time the cat's sex is referenced, it's called 'her' and then in the end credits scene, 'she' is called 'Mister Whiskers'. Did the writers just not give a damn about continuity? Also, any movie that refers to a calico cat as male (Big Hero Six, Home)
I don't like the responses of "That's what you found wrong with a movie with etc.?" It's the small things, guys.
In general any movie in a midieval/history/fantasy setting: there are often a lack of agricultural areas around towns, castles etcetera. Cause people in towns yesteryear got their food from trucks?

And we are supposed to feel "good" because she is "punished"? On the other hand, maybe I missed the point, maybe the movie point is "don't marry a psycho, they can look normal and cute too". If this is not the message, movie is mysogynistic pease of c**p.
My main problems with Disney movies is the sexual assault that just casually happens. Believe it or not, but you are not supposed to break into a girl's house and kiss her while she's sleeping. If she has actually been sleeping for years, go in and shake her awake or carry her out to a doctor. You do not need to kiss her!
In the original story she literally gets raped and impregnated while sleeping. She wakes up in labour IIRC. Disney definitely toned it down.
