i think Disney did an excellent job making the innapropriate scenes subtle enough that children that young weren't able to pick up on anything. I remember when I watched Hellfire as a child, the song Frollo sings about wanting to rape and murder Esmeralda, I just though he was angry at her. I couldn't pick up the subtle messages. Now that I'm older, I get it, but i think the adult themes in the movie were not able to be picked up by young children.

Hunchback wasn't inappropriate enough as they totally changed the story! I don't know exactly when it happened but people somewhere along the way started to think that Disney movies were actually intended for young children. The classics pull from fairy tales, legends and stories that are not Mickey Mouse. Evil step mothers, death, poisoned apples, Pleasure Island?, the intention of making puppies into coats....the audience for these should not include really young children but as I said, many people think Disney means bring along the toddlers and young children.

Well maybe it explains why it was one of the least succesful Disney classics... but no, I don't think so. I heard that in that new film, Enchanted, that someone said the word 'fuck'. THAT goes a bit too far...

it had its moments, but kinds dont know any of that crap anyway, i didnt when i first saw it and when i recently saw it i was all like, wo, there's a lot of stuff i didnt understand back then. on a side note, that is my most fave disney movie mostly cuz frollo is such a deep and interesting character for a bad guy

who cares? when i was little i didnt understand anyway

I think that the best Disney movies are written with both kids and adults in mind, most disney films have things like that but maybe the hunchback had a little more.

Kind of..

a bit rude for young children

Yes, you are paranoid. Family films are called family films for a reason. They are entertaining enough for children and adult jokes to fly over childrens' heads because they are too young to understand the content. As a child I didn't understand half the things Disney portrays in its films and I still watched them everyday and treasured them to death. I still do as I'm older because I can catch onto the adult content and still keep the memories of how it made me feel as a child. Or else everything made by Disney would be like "Dora the Explorer."
