YMMV: Zorro
  • Adaptation Displacement: Let's face it, most of you have seen the movies, not the original stories. In a more direct example, in the first book, Zorro wore a sombrero and full-face mask. But McCulley liked the flat Andalusian hat and half-mask Douglas Fairbanks wore in the movie so much that he wrote that costume into all the later stories.
  • Ear Worm: The live action TV show theme. In both English and Spanish.
  • Newer Than They Think: Due to the iconic nature and well told storyline, Zorro is often thought to be an old folk tale from the settler days of California, and not a relatively new story made whole-cloth in 1919.
