Today’s Fan-Art is by DKCissner. And it’s based on the movie poster for Pretty Women. I find this very amusing ^_^
Disney goes to Hollywood: Pretty Woman by dkcissner
The Hunchblog is 2 years old today. So to celebrate it I thought I would do a little retrospective. As of this post this post number 494. I have been posting every day since April 2012. Which has been tough. I use theme days to keep me on track but can be hard to come up with new, interesting and fun content. But I do enjoy blogging about the Hunchback even if sometimes I get burned out.
To date I have covered the 1939 version, the Disney version, the Disney Sequel, Der Glockner von Notre Dame, the Disney park show, the 1923 version, and I just finished the Jetlag version. So that is 7 versions in 2 years. My approach is to look at the adapations from my different angles like reviewing the character, costumes, production, etc. It’s provides a lot of great content and I think it’s makes for a better blog.
So what has been my favorite version that I have reviewed so far and what has been my least favorite?
Well my least favorite to review was 1923 version. I just found it really boring and hard to watch. And the ironic thing is it’s a really well regarded version so that made it tougher since there was a lot to cover.
I have two favorites the Disney sequel and Der Glöckner von Notre Dame. I really enjoyed reviewing the Sequel because it’s so bad that I got to be mean and silly and that was really fun. And with Der Glöckner von Notre Dame it was fun because it was great compromise between the Disney version and the book so I enjoyed reviewing it, plus a lot of stuff for these two versions I covered with the Disney version so it made it a bit easier.
So of my 494 posts, which post are my favorites?
Not really that surprisingly it been my posts on costumes. Mainly my rant of red Esmeralda costumes, my defense of Esmeralda’s green costume in Notre Dame de Paris, and the 1923 costumes. I also like the let’s get superficial look at Esmeralda and the Notre Dame de Paris/Pokemon fan-art. I really had fun matching Pokemon to the NDdP character’s personalities. I also liked my post on how popularity impacts accuracy and the a how bad the romance was in the Disney sequel.
So with all the theme days I do which one is the hardest to do weekly?
Without a doubt it’s Silly Sunday. It’s very hard to think up ideas that are one, fairly silly and two, I can pull off. I tend to do a lot photoshop images because it’s hard to come Hunchback jokes and most of the hunchback jokes out there are not that funny. But I enjoy it most of the time. Some of my favorite Silly Sunday posts are;
I want to thank everyone who has visited the Hunchblog and I hope to improve and hopefully keep this blog going another 2 years or more.

Luck Mervil as Clopin from Notre Dame de Paris
It’s been a well while since I made a Notre Dame de Paris lens so I made another Notre Dame de Paris actor lens on all the actors who have played Clopin in Notre Dame de Paris. I still need to make Phoebus actor lens and I have few more ideas in the pipeline.

Johnny Depp
With the rumors of Tim Burton involvement on the 2013 version people started to ask “Well,What character is Johnny Depp going to play?” Since Burton more often than now casts Depp for his movies? But it is a an interesting question, Who should Johnny Depp play if he were casted in a Hunchback movie?
Johnny Depp
Johnny Depp is a very versatile actor. He could play a few characters in a Hunchback version. He could play Gringoire, Clopin or Frollo. Though personally I think he would do the best as Clopin. The role of Clopin can be made into a bigger role pending on the writing. With Gringoire I feel a younger and more naive actor would be better and with Frollo, Depp doesn’t have an cold, austere look to him so I think he better suited to Clopin.
Johnny Depp as Captain Jack Sparrow from The Pirates of the Caribbean
I could see Depp giving Clopin like a Jack Sparrow vibe where he can be a chaotic neutral. But I think he could do something different for him as an actor and give Clopin a new bent and he could make his own.

This adorable picture is of a Disney Clopin Onesie. It unclear if it official but isn’t a adorable. If it’s not official Disney should produce it and if it is official they Disney needs to make more of them.

This was actually on e-bay so if you really want it keep a look out for it.
