> The Disneyfication I *really* take issue with is "The Hunchback of Notre Dame". It just boggled my mind when I heard Disney was making a kids' animated movie of it. What? Huh? How on earth? You have GOT to be joking! Even if you took out the deaths and the rape and the disillusionment and the evil and the morbidity and the cynicism, and changed all the characters and the storyline and the ending, you'd still have ... uh ... oh, right. That's what they did.

Argh!! That annoyed me so much.

It's a beautiful movie, but did not, in my opinion, deserve to be called "The Hunchback of Notre Dame". The book can't possibly be made into a children's movie without distorting it terribly, and I felt that doing so was truly an insult to Hugo.
