The Hunchback of Notre Dame II - Disneycember 

Poor Doug watching this shit for us

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

Because decorating bell's innards, which are being hit by a clapper, makes perfect sense.

My ex girlfriend had an obsession with the first Hunchback, Disney movies and the novel alike. So naturally I ended up finding this, thinking to myself "Oh, she might like this, I'm such a good boyfriend to show this to her." I watched it first, and... Yeah.

_"The Hunchback of Notre Dame 2: Quasi Gets Laid"_

Hunchback of Notre Dame is one of my favorite Disney films! Hunchback 2, however, is one of my LEAST favorites!

This movie is seriously a fanfiction.

I have to admit...I did laugh at this one scene: *Captain Phoebus*: "How many times have I ever been wrong?" (His horse starts counting on his hoof) *Captain Phoebus*: "That was a rhetorical question!"

This movie killed Doug

This story could have worked if Sarousch was a master of witchcraft. Knowing that Frollo was killed, he is no longer afraid to show off his skills, but he passes it off as witchcraft.

Wait the people that animated Batman and Animaniacs also did this? WHAT THE?! After you brought that up I can defiantly see it in this movie...YIKES. Side note extra points for mentioning the broadway version of Hunchback :D

About a third of the way done....HELP!

"Ugh, this hurts..." We're already off to a fantastic start.

Ahhh yes, my most hated Disney sequel

Fans react to Disney movies: WE WANT A SEQUEL!!!! Fans react to Disney sequels: UGH! THIS SUCKS!!!!

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"*

and lets ignore the fact that bejeweling the inside of a bell is THE STUPIDEST IDEA EVER! Not only it will ruin the sound, but everytime the bell is struck, IT WILL SHATTER ALL THE JEWELS! Seriously, the isnide of a bell takes an INSANE amount of punishment, hence bells are made of solid steel, brass or copper.

This is the only Disney sequel that made me feel like watching the first film just to make me feel better.

I am dissapointed, Doug didn't destroy this movie as much as I wanted.

"The real beauty is on the inside. ... *GET IT?!!"* -JelloApocalypse, 2017

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.

Victor Hugo rolled in his grave hearing about this sequel.

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

I like how he at least took the time to mention TMS. I was expecting him to just rant on the animation like everyone else, but he actually talked about their own style, and that it just didn't belong in the film.

And a problem I have with Zephyr: he should at least look mixed dammit!

Mr enter covered it perfectly, and so did you doug

How to fix this movie: Step 1: *get rid of the gargoyles*

"Imagine someone to love who loves you, imagine to look in her eyes and see, imagine how extraordinary it would be..." Uh, I did that once, people made fun of me...

Fun fact: TMS also did Sonic X, Lupin the Third, and D.Gray Man (both the 2006 series and Hallow).

Thinking on Mr.Enter right now.

Haley Joel Osment?! I'm glad that he still went on to do more roles, especially voicing Sora to this day.

This movie is the equivalent of violently kicking Víctor Hugo in the crotch repeatedly

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.

I just had the screenwriter for this movie, Jule Selbo, as my college professor. She's terrible. I'm trying to forget everything I've learned from her. She wouldn't come into office hours, she'd add things to my story that made no sense, and kept insisting I use her 11 step structure to write a story when my own structure was very similar, just to name a few things. This woman is unorganized and her book Genres for Screenwriters essentially explains superficially how each genre has reoccurring themes. You know the stuff you'd learn if you just watched movies. I'm so glad I'm out of her class Doug you have know idea. Seeing this video just helps reassure me that I'm not alone. Thanks.

I think when people talk about this, it's usually as a representation of everything wrong with the Disney sequels: bad animation, dumb clichéd stories, continuing stories no one wanted to see continued...

Aaah kill it with Fire....! HELLFYAAAH

Why was this made?

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 laughed when Doug said, Ugh, this hurts. 0:13 lol XD

4:15 "it's Carl Johnson" Me: CJ?? .......OOOOOOOOOAAHHHHHHHHH MY DAWG! WASSUP!!!?

The villain looks like a damn high elf

to Quote Futurama: Wouldnt a solid Gold Bell weigh hundreds of Tons and Sound crummy?

In case you’re wondering what Doug means by how he wished the movie ended the broadway style, practically everyone died in that version.

don't worry 101 Dalmatians 2 will be better

“Keep expecting Wacko Warner to come out and hit someone on the head with a mallet.” OK that was funny and also agreeable.

I still remember the trailer when Jennifer Love Hewitt herself said this movie was a sweet story and that you would want to watch it over and over again

The first line sums this movie up perfectly. "Ugh, this hurts".

Jule Selbo wrote this... she's is a Film Professor... and I'm taking her Genre class.

a little nitpick, the bell would never function like a normal bell with all those jewels in it, so its pretty much a 6 ton paperweight

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.

You've made it through the abomination. It can only get better from here.

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.

They got TMS to do this instead of Disney's TV Animation Japan? Weird.

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

You can't have hunchback of Notredame without Frollo and he was the real villain of the story.

Damn, he's starting to feel physical pain,

Also, it's Quasimodo is one word LOL

Is it me, or was Doug surprisingly lenient towards this film?

"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

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? :)

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

I broke the DVD and burned it

MrEnter and Lindsey did a great job reviewing this and Doug did as well...You guys deserve great present for watching this thing.

"Get It? GET IT!?"

Frollo should sing Hellfire to send this movie straight to where it belongs, in hell! LOL This movie is horrible, one of the worst Disney Sequels ever, anyone agree?

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

Thank you, Doug, for making these!

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

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.

"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.

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

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

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

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.

I've been waiting for this for so long.

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.

The one thing I liked about this movie was the song "I'm Gonna Love You". I honestly liked the song.

these sequels are a lot more like fanfics

I was waiting for this one for a long time.

How to make a good Hunchback of Notre Dame 2: Have Frollo come back as a ghost and haunt everybody.

i've been waiting for this!

Roses are Red Violets are Blue Love is dead Thanks, Hunchback of Notre Dame II!

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

Never before has the slogan: "I remember it so you don't have to" ever been so true.

Omg, Esmeralda gave birth to Sora!

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.

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...

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

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

I remember renting this when I was younger. I remember the plot, but not how I felt about it. I can be certain I didn't think it was anywhere close to the original. The original is one of my favorite movies.

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

Wouldn't a bell that's beautiful on the inside be damaged by the ringing part?

I loved Hunchback, so this film was just sad.

Nostalgia Critic! I found something! They made a Tv show from the American Tail sequel Fievel Goes West. Fievel's American Tales Do I hear anWTR episode coming on?

I'm glad that I'm finally _learning_ things from your Disneycembers this year. The old Disneycembers were great because you explained perfectly well why a film was bad or good (or at least what was wrong from it). In this Disneycember, the films are so bad that I think everyone _already_ knows why they're bad (i.e. Belle's Magically Bad World). It's nice to get a lot more background on a film like this. :D

I LOVED this movie when I was a kid. I would argue to no end with my friends that this was a good movie. Then I actually saw the first one and now I can't sit through the full movie without getting bored.

Woah, he didn't lose his shit over this. Decent surprise.

Wait a minute, TMS animated this horseshit!? The fuck!?!
