I've got very mixed feelings about the episode where Big Daddy passes away.
It is good in its dramatic parts like when Blanche argues with Virginia and when she talks to Big Daddy at his grave.
However, I really just can't stand the scene where she breaks the expensive plate.
Sure, I can see how she's still in turmoil after her father's death and regrets that she didn't see him one last time.
But destroying a collector's item that many people would have loved to buy doesn't make sense at all and only comes across as selfish.
And I get that the plate somehow symbolized to her that she had chosen some silly contest over taking a chance to say good-bye to her father.
But she could have sold the plate instead of destroying it and used the money to do something good!
Well, I found it less boring than the first movie.
Still, I know I enjoyed it more than the utterly depressing first movie.
Actually, I just adore "The Hunchback of Notre Dame II" and like most of the sequels/midquels/prequels.
So there!
Tod only met her when he was grown-up.
Well, someone had cleary wanted something that a kids movie wasn't going to give them.
He didn't.
But that is only you trying to see "proof" when there is none, and you admit yourself that it doesn't make a case against him.
None of those quotes was him "dodging a question", he was only stating the truth about his innocence.
And seriously, why can't we leave a man who has been gone for fourteen years alone either way?
What was funny was how the others reacted to those absurd stories.
It is really amazing too that Betty White could tell them with a straight face or that any writer could come up with them in the first place.
They were thinking that the whole Netherlands is the same.
Or it was a mix-up and they meant to say "Amsterdam".
I'm Swedish, but I just take the fake Scandinavian thing as the dumb bs that it is and shrug it off.
While I don't think I watched this show as a teenager, I know I watched it with my mother as a pre-teen.
Of course, it is clear to me now that a lot of things went over my head back then.
Good points.
Max was maybe able to convince the Nazis that he didn't know about their plans to run off.
But yeah, you have to wonder what happened to the nuns...
Yeah, I always found that scene awful as well.
"Appearance" is the right word.
It is clear that Cliff and Claire wanted to be seen as perfect even though they weren't.
They were planning on doing a TV series, I think.
But it never went far and became only three episodes, which became this movie.
So you didn't see that Drizella and Anastasia were abused by Lady Tremaine as well?
It is more subtle than her abuse of Cinderella, of course.
However, you can see that she manipulates them into doing horrible things and warns them to not fail her.
Well, not THoND II as I love it so much (and all the people who claim that it's a bad movie can bite me).
But I can't say that "Cinderella II" is that bad either.
No, they seem to be like brother and sister.
