Just wanted to bring this topic up because there's been a lot of controversy over Maleficent using the word "hell" in Brith By Sleep. She told Prince Phillip and Aquq to "see all the powers of hell". She was obviously talking about the place hell. Ya know, where the devil resides.

 

Maleficent IS the devil. Many cartoons use characters that are really the devil but have names that are no where even close to the devil and have no noticable similarities. Maleficent was obviously supposed to be a female version of the devil. Maleficent means evil and that was likely the closest name that Disney could find to "devil".

 

A lot of cartoons have hell in them, including Disney. At large, there is no hell in Kingdom Hearts but it is still in Final Fantasy and Disney. Maleficent was talking about the place hell obviously, but I guess it's understandable why people would think otherwise.

 

Many E10+ games use words like "hell" and "damn". Why is this such a big deal? How old are you? 10? It's not a big deal. The place known as hell exsists in many video games and cartoons. I doubt they could get away with using the word "hell" on a TV-Y7 show but they still use it in ways most children wouldn't notice right away. This includes the devil as well who is used more.

 

Right off the top of my head:

Hades from the Disney movie Hercules is basicly the devil. They call him the "Lord of the Dead" inthe movie and Kingdom Hearts because their supposed to be kids/family movies/games. His appearence is like a devil with his flaming hot red hair when he gets angry and the whole Underworld as his base of operations. In Greek mythology, Hades is not the devil, just the lord of the dead. In Disney, it's the complete opposite.

 

Maleficent from Sleeping Beauty is also meant to be a devil like character. As I stated, Maleficent means "evil". The devil is evil. Maleficent is probably the closest they could come to a devil reference.

 

The Red Guy from Cow & Chicken is another example. He already admit he was the devil in the pilot epsiode of the show back in 1995. That wasn't long ago so I doubt the rules for TV-Y7 shows have changed that much. His appearence is also very reminiscint to the devil. I guess you can say Cow & Chicken is an exception though because it was always firetrucked up and was never a good show for kids, despite it's TV-Y7 rating.

 

Him from The Powerpuff Girls is probably my best example. He was probably the most clear example of the devil to date. For starters "Him" stands for "His Infernal Magesty", a.k.a. the devil so the creators of the show where smart when they made this character. His voice is that of like.. 5 different people so I don't think I even need to get started there. Obvious reference to Satan and hell. There's also many more but I think I've used enough for this particular character.

 

So why are people making such a big fuss over Maleficent using the world "hell" in Birth By Sleep. She's the devil, Nomura's not gonna turn one of Disney's best villains into some kiddish child friendly whore. Why can't she use the word "hell"? You're basicly telling the devil not to curse. Why would you take such a risk? lol.

 

This ain't a big deal peepers.

 

Discuss.

Although the Christian "hell" is not my belief I still think that it is immature to make a fuss of some one saying the word "hell". I've said it before in a post that "curse" words are only made "curse" words because society turned them into them. Who cares if someone says a "curse" word anyway, if a person had any level of maturity they wouldn't go "oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo I'm telling you mommy!", or make any other big deal out of it. So I'm going to have to side with you on this one.

I know right..and in the original japanese DDD trailer (don't remember which) Frollo made references to religion yet people are freaking out over the word "hell".

I'm not looking too deep into things, just using supporting evidence and facts to back up my argument, unlike a lot of Kingdom Hearts fans.

As if I'm doing something bad? Gooby pls.

Yes, i was going to say something about The Hunchback of Notre Dame, but you explain nicely.

I wish Sora and Riku...or any of the other main characters would say hell or damn. That'd make my day. =w=

If I'm not mistaken, in the Japanese Re:COM, Sora says hell as well. He says to Axel "What the hell are you people?!"

Sora did once..but it was in japanese so...

Yeah, I completley forgot about Judge Claude Frollo. It's been a while since I seen the Hunchback of Notre Dame.

 

Disney uses countless references to hell in their movies. Frollo talking about religon is a bigger deal than Maleficent saying "hell".

But who cares because our children our precious and we must shelter them from the EEEVILS of the world before they become criminals!

LOL.

1] Maleficent is not the devil, she borrowed(or stole, i don't really know) her powers from the devil.

2]Really, people make a big deal out of someone saying "hell"? I say it all the time and i even use the word firetruck(where I.R.E.T.R.U.C.K are silent letters ) so what does that make me? Some kind of lusty satanist? PEOPLE ARE RETARDS!!

 

3]I don't think Malefacent is evil, i think she just needs a big, warm hug . lol jk.

I bet if an actual Fire Truck is ever in the Kingdom Hearts series, and Sora says "ohhhh look a fire truck"

 

this whole forum is just going to pop it's lid in laughter.
