The Hunchback of Notre Dame

I watched this movie yesterday and these are some of the things that went through my head while watching it, and afterward:
1.) THIS IS A KIDS MOVIE??

2.) Frollo is terrifying and gives me the chills....the song he sings about "hell fire" and how Esmeralda will be his or burn. And the way he smelled her hair. *shudders* Jeez Disney, is it just me or are you guys insinuating that he would do HORRIBLE things to her such as rape. Why else would he rub the gypsy scarf around his face and speak about desire? Ew

3.) I think I could handle living in the same time period as this movie :P The wine, cheese, and bread all look so good!! Definitely my kind of menu ;)

4.) Are they pronouncing Dame wrong? I feel like it's "A" as in Aim, not Dom....

5.) As blown away by how scary this movie seems I don't remember being scared by it when I was little. In fact I had lots of figurines from the movie that I played with. So why do I feel like kids shouldn't see this? I am turning into a hypocrite [or my mom...] >.< Hopefully it's just that as a kid I was so naive I didn't pick up on the things I am now...

6.) I didn't realize Demi Moore played Esmeralda.

7.) Only Disney can get away with a character talking to gargoyles that no one else sees as being real. Clearly Quasimodo isn't just deformed, but delusional as well. Yay Disney :]

8.) Speaking of Disney I should probably read the book by Victor Hugo [same title] to see everything they got wrong ;) Isn't that part of Disney's appeal? That they screw up every story they make a movie off of?

9.) Can people still claim "sanctuary"?

10.) I LOVE the music in this movie :]
