Hercules / Disney	comment	Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_3'); })Hercules is entry #35 of the Disney Animated Canon, released in 1997. Being a mostly lighthearted musical comedy that serves as a change of pace after Disney attempting three epic features, this film is a very loose, family friendly adaptation of the myth of Heracles, being to Greek Mythology what Aladdin was to the Arabian Nights.After Zeus fights and sends the Titans to the Underworld, he becomes the ruler of Mount Olympus, home of all Greek gods. Hades is sent to rule the underworld, but he makes plans to throw Zeus out of Mount Olympus with the Titans' help. The three Fates warn him that his plans would be endangered if Hercules, Zeus and Hera's newborn child, is still around by the time he tries to take over Mount Olympus. Hades sends his minions Pain and Panic to turn Hercules into a mortal and kill him, but they fail in their attempt and leave him on earth with his divine strength to be raised as a human. Hercules grows up but later learns he is the son of Gods, and in order to return to Mt. Olympus he must turn into a "true hero".Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_2'); })Over a year after its release, the film spawned a cartoon that ran both in syndication and on Disney's One Saturday Morning on ABC, from 1998 to 1999. It was a Midquel series that presented Herc's life in high school and had him hanging out with fellow Greek characters Icarus and Cassandra. It also presented a plot hole in that Hades was still trying to get him killed, despite the fact that in the movie he didn't know Herc was still alive until he was an adult, but that didn't seem to matter much to the writers. The show runners admitted to the plot hole and stated their intent was to just have some fun with the setting and characters, hoping that the plot hole wouldn't bother viewers too much. Thanks to James Woods coming back, it did pretty well.The film is also adapted into a level called Olympus Coliseum in the Kingdom Hearts series… heavily. It has appeared in seven out of eight games, and even in the game it didn't appear in, the world's theme music was used in another world. Hades is even the most recurring Disney Villain in the series besides Maleficentnote the biggest Disney Villain of the series herself, probably because you can always rely on getting the big name of James Woods to play him.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_1'); })While far from Disney's most successful movie thanks to competition, it made plenty of money and was still very successful when compared to the Disney franchise as a whole. Its sense of humour was compared to that which Robin Williams brought to Aladdin, showcasing a villain both competent and hilarious. Some mark it as the turning point where Disney no longer confined humour to incompetent sidekicks.The film was eventually adapted into a stage musical by the Public Theater in New York, and is notable for casting Roger Bart, the actor who provided Hercules' singing voice, as Hades.

A few steps later, the same wall says "Fin," which is Latin for "end." Very near, indeed. When Herc digs around in the river, he's muttering that "A hero is only as good as his weapon!" He pulls a fish out of the river. 'Fish' is also a slang term for somebody completely clueless and inexperienced, as in 'fish out of water'.

Kinda brutal for a Disney movie.note For those of you curious though, the rating system is unusually lax on dismemberments and decapitations when on characters who can regrow the lost part in question, or in this case multiples of the parts in question. Throw in a little Alien Blood and you're goo to go. Notice that when the Hydra is actually killed it's in a completely bloodless way.

Ironically the Greek "Herakles" makes more sense in this version, as it means "Glory of Hera", and considering that in this adaptation Hera is both his actual mother, and a loving and supporting one, the name would make far more sense than in the original myth, where she hated his guts and tried to have him killed repeatedly (the name being an attempt to pacify her wrath).

Also, when Herc arrives in Phil's house, the Argo's mast is there... while in the myth, Hercules was one of the Argonauts.note the animated series would retroactively Hand Wave this: Jason didn't find the Golden Fleece the first time around, so Hercules joins him in another attempt Also, Herc is either 40 or a whole 70 years (it's not entirely clear) older than Achilles who wasn't trained by Phil but by the centaur Chiron. In the movie Achilles was already dead before Herc ever met Phil, which also means the Trojan war happened much earlier here than it did in myth.

Hercules / Disney / int_26ac510e	type	Mythology Gag
Hercules / Disney / int_26ac510e	comment	Mythology Gag: Aptly enough; despite many changes to the actual myths, there are more than a few references to them outside the main plot. The Mythological Hercules is best knownnote (besides for killing his wife in a goddess-induced fit of madness) for performing the Twelve Labors, all of which are referenced in the film, most of them in the "Zero to Hero" segment. The first labor, the slaying of the Nemean Lion, is changed from a lion that terrorized the town of Nemea to a monster that Hades sends. Hercules is later shown wearing its pelt (as he is usually depicted in the myths), and the lion's skin looks remarkably like Scar's. The second labor is the slaying of the Lernaean Hydra; obviously this is referenced by the massive Hydra battle (although it comes before the lion and is not in Lake Lerna, as it is in the myths, and is sent by Hades instead of Hera). In some (often the more detailed versions) of the myth, the Hydra had at least one immortal head, so Hercules had to finish it by burying it under a large rock. In the movie, Hercules defeats the Hydra by burying it under several large rocks. The fourth labor is to capture the Erymanthian Boar, which is alternately said to get its name from where it lives, Mt. Erymanthos, or from Erymanthus, Apollo's son who was blinded by Aphrodite (or in a few accounts Artemis) when he saw her bathing, which led him to send said boar to attack her. A large boar shows up in the "Zero to Hero" as another monster that Hades sends. The fifth labor is mentioned in passing as Augeas having a problem with his stables that Hercules is expected to help with. The sixth labor is to slay the man-eating Stymphalian birds, which are likely referenced by the large bird shown in passing as being a monster Hercules defeated in "Zero to Hero". The ninth labor is mentioned by Phil as having to get a girdle from some Amazons. The eleventh labor does not appear in the movie, but is referenced in the series, where Adonis is cursed by Gaia and needs the golden apples of Hesperides to be cured, which Hercules gets Atlas to pick for him, just as he does in the original myth. The twelfth labor appears at the end of the movie; Hercules was challenged to tame Cerberus, and appears riding him into the Underworld in the finale. As a baby, Hercules saves his adoptive parents from Pain and Panic when they turn into snakes, strangling both of them. In the Greek Myths, two (ordinary) snakes sent by Hera actually did attack Hercules as a baby, and he strangled both of them to death. In fact, if you count name drops and people in crowd scenes, it's almost a constant stream of references to Greek mythology. There's plenty to other Disney movies too: From Fantasia, we get Zeus's wedge-shaped beard, a blue centaur, pudgy Bacchus and a scene of Hephaestus hammering at Zeus's lightning bolts. In addition, Hercules defeats the Cyclops the same way Mickey Mouse defeated the giant in Brave Little Tailor. One of the smallest ones is the blue centaur Hercules battles to save Meg in their first scene together. His name, Nessus, is said exactly once, and in passing, to boot. In Greek mythology, Nessus was a centaur killed by Hercules who tricked Deianeira (Hercules' wife) into using his blood as poison to kill her husband.

Hercules / Disney / int_2ec87029	comment	Sadly Mythtaken: Let's just say that the movie plays so fast and loose with Greek Mythology, that it would be far, far easier to list the things they did get accurate. The writers did read up on Greek Mythology when doing research for the film, but deliberately changed elements around and were often forced to change the more unpleasant elements of the Myths due to the film having to be acceptable to kids (a straight adaptation would've gotten the film an R rating and was thus out of the question). They do sneak in a lot of literal Mythology Gags to counterbalance it though. The film has its own page for examples of this.

Hercules / Disney / int_603f1a80	comment	Pragmatic Adaptation: The original Heracles myth—and Greek Mythology in general—were as family unfriendly as you can get and had a lot of built-in Values Dissonance (the basic conflict alone was unacceptable for a family film, since Hercules is a product of Zeus' adultery with a mortal, and Hera, Zeus' wife, is the villain who constantly makes Hercules' life miserable because of this), so the studio was forced to heavily rework the concept; it borrows the character names (not so much the personalities), story points and the setting from the myths, but throws out and adds in things from other parts of Greek Myth (such as Pegasus and the Muses, who were not in the original Heracles story), and reworks everything else (such as expanding Hades role in the story by turning him into the main villain), ultimately making the film less an adaptation of Greek Mythology and more like a mashup of Superman: The Movie and Rocky set in a burlesque of Ancient Greece.

Did he not suspect anything when Hercules was never amongst his collection of deceased people? Hercules's deal to trade his soul for Meg's. After he rescues her, he just leaves and never gives Hades what he agreed to. Which is ironic, since Hades was very good about honoring his end of their bargains. If Zeus imprisoned the Titans eons ago by himself, why did he get his butt handed to him so readily the second time even with an entire mountain of gods helping him? Furthermore, after Herc breaks him out, he throws thunderbolts (which had been shown to be essentially useless against the Titans as they were climbing Mt. Olympus) which are suddenly capable of ripping the Titans apart. The Titans even run away in terror upon seeing his release.

A second DVD release, as part of the Walt Disney Gold Classic Collection, made literally no improvement to the picture or the extras.

He killed more than one innocent person simply for being too close when his temper got the better of him (although he was always remorseful when this happened), and he would go stage a HUGE war for a mere verbal insult one day, although he did go to great lengths to help his friends and his deeds did the world a lot of good. The Hercules in this movie is a wide eyed boy scout who doesn't have many, if any, vices. The worst thing he does is lash out at Phil for trying to warn him about Meg being in league with Hades, but he immediately comes to regret that. Anyone who knows their Greek mythology knows that Zeus is a self-righteous, womanizing jerk and rapist. Here, he's pretty much a cross between Grandpa God and Bumbling Dad who certainly loves Hercules and stays loyal to Hera, making his status as a Top God of Mt.

None of heads that take the first head's place are nearly as competent, they even start to bang into and bite each other when the monster gets even more. It takes them using the body's claws to pin Hercules down to get control of the fight back, which ends up being a fatal mistake for all of them, after Hercules triggered a rockslide and they couldn't get away. note Possibly justified if the primary head's memories and experience didn't transfer over to the other heads when it was removed.

Hercules / Disney / int_8a5661d2	comment	Everybody Loves Zeus: The gods of Olympus get this treatment, Zeus and Hera especially. Zeus is portrayed as a light-hearted, if not buffoonish king and loyal husband to Hera free of infidelity, while Hera is sweet and considerate (as well as Hercules being her actual son). Zeus is portrayed as a light-hearted, if not buffoonish king and loyal husband to Hera. While the spin-off series brings up his flaws—like forgetting he and his wife's anniversary, occasionally losing his temper and the whole "Prometheus" thing—Zeus's frequent infidelity is never brought up (most likely non-existent to keep the G-Rating). Hera gets this treatment even more so. In the original myth, Heracles was not Hera's child and was a product of her husband cheating on her. Feeling spiteful, Hera actively sabotaged his life and tried to make his suffer, even forcing him to kill his own family. Here, Hercules is her son and no mention of Zeus cheating on her is ever brought up, so the adaptation portraying Hera as the kind, patient and level-headed of the two. Even in the episode "Hercules and the Return of Typhon" it is revealed that she was the one who threw the lightning bolt that led to Typhon's defeat and that she allowed Zeus to take the credit for image reasons.

When Hades opens his display to ask Megara about the River Guardian, there are two other figurines visible on it: a giant boar and a gorgon, that are both later sent against Hercules in "Zero to Hero". When Meg takes Herc to the garden, she is surprised and truly flattered by Herc's sincere compliments towards her. Then she backs into the statue of Cupid's arrow. Then they nearly kiss before Phil interrupts and berates Herc for ditching him. Before leaving, Herc, picks a flower from a tree and gives it to Meg and kisses her. The entire garden scene is what foreshadows the song I Won't Say I'm in Love. Young Hercules hitting his head on the mast of The Argo could be seen as a foreshadow to his "death" later in the film seeing as Jason died from having the mast of The Argo fall on him.

Hercules / Disney / int_beb9a361	comment	By modern standards, the Hercules of Greek Myth wasn't exactly a paragon of heroic virtue. He killed more than one innocent person simply for being too close when his temper got the better of him (although he was always remorseful when this happened), and he would go stage a HUGE war for a mere verbal insult one day, although he did go to great lengths to help his friends and his deeds did the world a lot of good. The Hercules in this movie is a wide eyed boy scout who doesn't have many, if any, vices. The worst thing he does is lash out at Phil for trying to warn him about Meg being in league with Hades, but he immediately comes to regret that.

Hercules / Disney / int_c75df49a	comment	Shout-Out: One of the Muses' sculpture incarnations during "I Won't Say (I'm in Love)" should look very familiar to fans of the Haunted Mansion ride at the Disney Theme Parks. Hades, just before the fight between Hercules and the Hydra: "Let's get ready to RUMBLE!" And Hades again: Followed by: The hydra looks like Mohawk the Gremlin from Gremlins 2: The New Batch. This isn't the first time Disney has shown Hephaestus forging bolts and throwing them to Zeus. The Muses themselves are very similar to Alan Menken's other famous Greek Chorus. Don't forget the lion skin Hercules wears in one scene—it's Scar! Quite possibly to the specific line Zazu says to Mufasa. "He'd make a very handsome throw-rug." There's also the Mr. Miyagi-esque bit of the training montage. The maiden in the constellation getting her skirt blown upwards. There is a sign that says "Over 5,000,000,000 and 1 served", a nod to the McDonald's Corporation. Herc's origin story bears a striking similarity to the backstory of Superman. The female pegasus that Pain and Panic disguise themselves as to lure Pegasus away resembles a My Little Pony, right down to having a symbol (in this case a heart) on its flank. A seductress is sent to find out a seemingly invincible hero's weakness, and he then loses his superhuman strength due to her betrayal... just like Samson and Delilah! Pain & Panic after Hades yells at them when the Fates arrived without his knowledge: "We are worms! Worthless worms!". While bowing down. The fish that Hercules picks up when facing down Nessus bears a striking resemblance to a certain Mr. Limpet. During one of Hades' rants, he referes to Zeus as "Mr. Hey You, Get Off My Cloud". Meg catches Hercules hiding behind a curtain and says, "Let's see. What could be behind curtain number one?"

Hercules / Disney / int_d500b978	comment	Adaptational Wimp: In the Greek Myths, Deimos (who Pain is based on) was the Greek God of Terror and Phobos (who Panic is based on) was the very personification of fear brought on by war. In the movie, they're watered down into bungling comic relief lackeys for Hades. Also, Hermes was able to borrow (or steal) Hades' helm of darkness pretty much anytime he wanted in the myths. In the movie, he's easily captured and subdued by Pain and Panic to be dragged off into the Underworld once the Titans storm Mount Olympus. This is probably because the film chose to depict him solely as a messenger god rather than the more broad-scope trickster that he was in the myths. Amphitryon (Hercules' foster father) was a general that ravaged the islands of the Taphians, and took part in other war campaigns, even dying on the battlefield fighting against the Minyans. The movie changes him into a harmless peasant.

The difference is that Superman was sent to Earth out of necessity since Krypton was dying, while Hercules was kidnapped and made to be mostly mortal to prevent his victory over Hades and the Titans.

Hercules / Disney / int_e61d9a3c	type	Clothing Damage
Hercules / Disney / int_e61d9a3c	comment	Hercules will frequently suffer Clothing Damage to his tunic, only for it to be repaired by the next frame. Most obviously when he's attacked by his fangirls—one strap of his tunic comes down, in the next frame it's fixed and in the next it's the other shoulder down.

He sucked down all but one drop. Also, the Fates said that Hades would fail of Hercules "fights", they didn't say anything about whether or not he has his strength.

Hercules / Disney / int_ecb480a4	comment	Two Words: I Can't Count: A Running Gag is that every time Philocetes attempts Two Words: Added Emphasis, he gets the count wrong. After the "retired" line, a confused Hercules is then seen counting it out. As a Bilingual Bonus, "I am retired" is two words in Ancient Greek. In Phil's song "One Last Hope", the lines "Askin' me to jump into the fray/My answer is two words:" set him to rhyme with something like "No way." Then he's forced to make a Last-Second Word Swap.

Likewise, unless you know your Greek mythology, the five Muses are Thalia (muse of Comedy and the plump one), Melpomene (muse of Tragedy and the one with the long, curly hair), Calliope (muse of Epic Poetry and the leader), Clio (muse of History and with the pony tail), and Terpsichore (muse of dance and choral poetry, the one in the two-piece toga).
