"Thanks for everything, Herc. It's been a real slice." We're back talking about Disney animated features this week, and watched the 90s classic Hercules (1997). Released smack dab in the middle of the Disney Renaissance, it's a movie that is a gold mine for the theme of our show. A coming-of-age story about an outsider on his journey to twink to twunk, a sassy lady with a high ponytail, a big-chested Greek God daddy, and most importantly Hades as the bitchy old queen. No wonder it was easy for us as children to gravitate towards everything on screen going on here. Topics discussed are the Supermanification of the Greek Gods, its pitch-perfect voiceover cast, a deep dive on the Meg fashion doll, and McDonald's iconic plates.
