History WMG / TheHunchbackOfNotreDame

His mother wasn't a fortune teller - she could actually see the future. Quasi has inherited this ability, which is why the gargoyles (as they exist in his head) are able to be so anachronistic.

* The Archdeacon was an old man in the film so he whould'nt be able to stop Frollo even if he wanted to. He was probley "turning the other cheek". Besides in that time period the physicaly deformed were beleaved to be a sin so Quasimodo whould have been killed if he wasnt trapped in the bell tower

[[WMG: The Gargoyles are actually [[DoctorWho Weeping Angels.]]]]

[[WMG: Quasimodo is a seer]]

This explains why Frollo has an obsession with Esmerelda, as she looks so similar to the other gypsy woman he loved. Along with that, it explains why Quasi doesn't have the distinctive gypsy look, and instead is more fair skinned with red hair.

* Given his tempting fate line I'm going with be careful what you wish for.

The glamours make the gargoyles seem inanimate, and they make Quasi seem stupid. When they are alone, Quasi is obviously much more articulate than when he is interacting with other people (note his rambling with Esmeralda and the whole "NO SOLDIERS! SANCTUARY!" bit with Phoebus.) Occasionally the glamour [[GlamourFailure slips]], and we have things like Djali seeing Hugo or Quasi interacting normally with Phoebus in the Court of Miracles.

1. Frollo decided to adopt Quasimodo out of kindness, as in the novel. He initially wants to drown him, but ultimately takes pity, the Archdeacon representing his conscience and his guilt for killing Quasimodo's mother.
2. Frollo himself made the decision not to defile the sanctuary of the church, but was initially tempted to do so. In the following scene where Esmeralda is talking to the Archdeacon, Frollo is just being AffablyEvil. Imagine him saying lines like: ''Don't act rashly, child. You created quite a stir at the festival. It would be unwise to arouse my anger further.''. Esmeralda is pulling a WhatTheHellHero on him in that scene.
3. When the Archdeacon tries to stop Frollo from assaulting Quasimodo in the final battle, he
once again represents Frollo's conscience, but this time, Frollo's madness gets the better of him.

They move when you aren't looking!

They use magic to keep the {{muggles}} from seeing them. Quasimodo has Fae blood, which is how he is able to see and hear them (though he's mostly human, which is why they still look like the statues on the facade.)

** I've been thinking the same thing and I agree with you. The fact, that Frollo and the Archdeacon look the complete opposite strenghtens the theory that they reflect his good and evil sides. Where Frollo is tall, thin, ghastly-looking and wears all black, the Arcdeacon is short, chubby, grandfatherly and wears all white. And don't forget Frollo claiming "My concience is clear!" when Archdeacon calls him out for his willingness to commit two murders. It could represent his inner fight with pity and guilt. And it would also explain why the Archdeacon is nowhere to be seen when Frollo burns the Paris. After Hellfire, he clearly lost the grasp from his sanity and concience, and it's last, desperate attempt is to stop him from attacking the church but by then - as the writer above me says - he's too far in the deep end to listen.

Quasimodo looks nothing like her if she was his mother. If he is her son he should at least look a bit like her, but he deosn't. She might have taken pity on a newborn baby she found, which was left to die for being deformed.

The gypsie woman caring for baby Quasi was attached to him, but the other two only took him in under the lucrative idea of having a deformed child as a sideshow, since, in this continuity, all gypsies are circus performers.

Quasimodo's mother looks a little too much like Esmerelda when all other gypsies have a very distinctive look. It would help with how Esmerelda was so quick in accepting Quasimodo's deformity if she had vague memories of a baby brother who wasn't 'the same' as every body else...

There are several things that imply this. First of all, the songs imagery itself suggests such a transaction taking place. Secondly, his actions after said sequence seemed far more radical and cruel, even for someone as obsessed as him.

It may seem like he is a kind and caring person, but in reality, it appears that his only concern is to keep his churches reputation, with no concern about the wellbeing of others

It was not, as we all suspected, Esmeralda's dancing and beauty that turned him on, but her refusal to take his crap.

Think about it. He seems to be able to manipulate the flames in his fireplace into various shapes during the Hellfire sequence, and he loves burning down houses. He probably had a fire nation ancestor somewhere.
