Can you believe this whole movie happens because the villain wanted to save money on postage???

With #15, let’s go back to the very beginning, I hear it’s a very good place to start.

The truth is the 16th movie on my list is a lot like Alice in Wonderland as its less than sum of its parts coupled with some weird decisions to the narrative and YET it still a fun watch.

The Disney Movie that eked out my 17th position might not be everyone’s cup of tea but it just holds a curious little place in my heart.

Coming in at #20 on this weird list is a movie that’s not considered an unrated gem but rather the opposite. It’s an Icy Blue Crown Jewel in Disney’s lofty Princess Tiara…
Read More →Recently I watched the majority of Disney’s Featured Animated movies to get a better sense of which ones are my personal favorites because I didn’t really know the answer to that question. Many of the Disney movies I haven’t actually seen and a few I’ve watched only once or twice.
I watched 52 movies excluding anthology films – sorry Fantasia – and Winnie the Pooh movies, not sure why I just did that. I wasn’t going to include sequels but they got added to the list except for Moana 2. Also I watched these movies in a random order.
There will 20 posts for each movie on separate days. The movies are not so much ranked but movies closer to the one position are closer to S tier. Remember this list will be super subjective.
So what are my top 20 Disney Featured Animated Movies? Will Hunchback be included? What about Chicken Little? Will nostalgia color my perception?
To answer the last question, my rose-colored nostalgia goggles are securely fasten!

While Disney Esmeralda is a gold standard for a compelling Halloween costume, Disney’s Hunchback of Notre Dame does offer some more unexpected costume ideas. They range in complexity from items that may already be in your closet to more elaborate designs.
These are in no order but the last one might be the most scary one of all……
1. Djali
Djali is the best (a Literal GOAT.) One could get a goat costume and add the gold hoop earring or you could do a cute Disneybounding type look with a cute gray outfit, goat ears and the earring, sort like the SNL A Girl’s Halloween skit.
You could also do the same with Achilles and copy his bridle but less people might get it unless you were with a Phoebus.
2 & 3. The Guards
Often called the Brutish and Oafish Guards, these two are very mean and hostile in the movie. Basically a medieval knight costume and one has a bushy mustache. Could be very fun as a duo.
Bonus points if you do a Patrick Star impression, if you know than you know.
4. The Old Heretic
The Old Heretic is a running gag throughout the movie. It’s a fairly easy costume with tattered clothing and a white bread.
Bonus points to those who include some kind of prison prop to the costume like a cage or a pillory.
5. Fire Vision Esmeralda
This is a really cool variation of Esmeralda. In “Hellfire” Frollo sees visions of her dancing in the flames. One could do this costume in a few ways like one her costumes but in lightweight fabrics to suggests flames. I love this idea so much.
6. Creepy Hellfire Judge
This would be so wonderfully creepy, especially as a group of them with someone dressed up as Frollo. Really this one is pretty simple, it’s dark red hooded cloak with a blacked out face mask. I also love this idea
7. Creepy Statue
The way the statues stare down at Frollo in damning judgment is very chilling indeed. This idea is more conceptual than actually a recognizable part of the movie but you may have fun as a creepy judgment statue.
8. Nightmarish Gargoyle
Another one of Frollo’s hallucination as costume idea. Basically this idea is the hellish, nightmare gargoyle that casts Frollo into a figurative hell. This gargoyle is a nice contrast from the comedy trio.
9. The Torturer
A bit character to be sure but this guy is scary as he loves what he does. The costume is simple and similar to guards but with a black hood, a whip, spike gauntlets, plus a mustache. Doesn’t have a lot of screen time but he makes an impression as he adds to Frollo’s sick sense of humor.
Worst case scenario everyone thinks you’re a torturer and can’t place your costume from the movie but that can be you’re own little secret.
10. The Church Lady
This could be a harder costume to make but it could be an interesting costume. She does bare a slight resemblance to Frollo too.
11. Madeline
Nothing is scarier than a Straight-to-Video Disney sequel, so why not lean-in to it and dress up a Madeline. It’s not too hard a costume as it consists of a light-green skirt and bodice with white sleeves and a short blonde wig. I’m terrified just thinking about the Hunchback II.
Would you dress up as any of these for a costume party?
