Line 8:
* [[Ear Worm]]: ''Here was a kid with his act down pat! Zero-to-hero, no time flat!''
** ''[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I_bEWXs_FX4 If there's a prize for rotten judgement, I guess I've already won that.]'' You're welcome.
** [[Award Bait Song|I am ON MY WAY! I can go the distance!]]
** [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=krQVJIDjMP0&feature=related A ZEERO TO HEERO!] Probably the most famous song from the film (especially for being the opening theme for the series).
** Just about anything sung by the muses
Line 17:
** The one thing EVERYBODY loves about this movie is [[Laughably Evil|Hades]].
* [[Evil Is Cool]]: Hades, though anyone with magical powers and the voice of James Woods would be cool.
* [[Genius Bonus]]: Many, for the Greek mythology buffs in the audience. "Zero to Hero" is full of half-second allusions to Hercules' Labors, famous Greek (and Roman) art, as well as ancient Greek culture.
* [[Americans Hate Tingle|Greeks Hate Hercules]]: While the rest of the world's audiences and critics liked the movie well enough (though, of course, not to the extent of ''[[The Lion King]]'' and the earlier Renaissance films), The Greeks ''despised'' this movie, even denying the film a premiere in Greece. Then again, they know more about their mythology than any other, so the inaccuracies are all the more damning to them than just simply annoying little smudges on an otherwise good narrative.
** It's kind of similar to how a lot of American historians hated ''[[Pocahontas]]'' while other countries liked it well enough.
Line 30:
* [[Tethercat Principle]]: Wait...they left Nessus facedown in a pond.
* [[They Wasted a Perfectly Good Plot|They Wasted a Perfectly Good Opportunity for a]] [[Villain Song]]: The film's good enough as is, but come on! Couldn't Hades have gotten a song in the actual film instead of a [["The Villain Sucks" Song]]? He has the [[Large Ham|perfect]] [[Affably Evil|personality]] for an [[Awesome Music (Sugar Wiki)|Awesome Music]] one!
** Some fans make pair of videoson [[YouTube]] where he sings ''The Land of The Dead'' by [[Voltaire (
* [[Visual Effects of Awesome (Sugar Wiki)|Visual Effects of Awesome]]: The Hydra [[Conspicuous CG|looks outdated now]], but for theater-goers in '97, it was ''jaw-dropping''.
