GAH! Numbers please!! And where's Narcissus? "I haven't seen so much love in a room since Narcissus discovered himself." One of my favorite lines from the movie. Interesting quiz, though!

Thought it was pretty obvious which numbers applied where, but I'll add numbers in to be on the safe side. Narcissus wasn't a god though!

Nicely, done

. I did way better at this one than I will on Wallace & Gromit. One thing though...Bacchus is indeed the Roman appellation for said god--it would good to accept Dionysus and display whichever you prefer.

Thanks; the numbers help a lot! That's strange that Narcissus isn't a god, yet is portrayed as one (hanging out in the cloud kingdom and all) in Hercules. Just goes to show you shouldn't be trying to learn facts from Disney movies!!!

It also shows Hephaestus in the movie. Perhaps add him too?

@BamaMuaddib: I never noticed that, because on the cartoon he is referred to as Bacchus, despite, as you rightly stated, the Greek name is Dionysus. It has been allowed now anyway, apologies for the oversight. And it turns out you did better on Wallace and Gromit!
@WredAguyW: I'd add more gods (that's a good suggestion you've made) but I like the 15 picture format, and use it in several quizzes.

Nice quiz. And I have to hand it to Disney on their design choices; I haven't seen the movie or the TV series, but I was able to identify 11 out of 15 due to the way they were portrayed.

Cupid is Roman- His Greek counterpart is Eros. Same for Bacchus-That's the roman name of the Greek god Dionysus

@emanuel: Both are already accepted. I've gone by what they are referred to in the cartoons, despite that fact that it's not quite correct. Who'd have thought Disney could be inaccurate?

Awesome quiz :D Although I would rather see Hephaestus on here than Morpheus or Boreas, considering he's an Olympian and all.

@maaxwell, emanuel, and BamaMuaddib: TECHNICALLY, Bacchus was the name adopted by the Romans, but the name Bacchus already existed in Greek. Dionysus went by both in Greece, but really only Bacchus in Rome. With that having been said, however, given the rest of that movie, I'd say Disney had no idea what they were doing.

Great quiz, after reading above comments I'm glad you stayed with the 15 picture format, it fits nicely. Disney's portrail of Poseidon is awesome!

Cupid is the Roman God. You're looking for Eros. Ironically enough, the movie is set in Greece, but Hercules is the Roman way of pronouncing it.

I haven't even seen the movie, and I only missed five. Two of which were Roman names, Bacchus and Cupid. I think Hercules himself should be on here since he became a god after dying. At least a bonus answer.

Got stuck on Cupid, Morpheus and Boreas but I never watched the TV show and you don't really see that much of most of them in the film. So was just guessing based on how they look haha!

@Dannibelle AND @BR8N03epsilon: Please, read the comments above before commenting yourself. You will realise I've used the names used in the show/film, regardless of whether they are the actual Greek names or not.

Hercules is the stupidest movie ever! Disney paid no attention to Greek mythology to make that! 1. Philocetes is the person who inherited Heracles's bow, not some silly satyr! 2. Hades isn't evil! 3. Heracles's parents are Zeus and ALCMENE! 4. He killed Megara! 5. Heracles did become a god! 6. Bacchus and Cupid are Roman gods!

And may I remind you lythos, cyclops, hydros, stratos, and pyros aren't titans, and narcissus is a mortal! And also Pegasus was not made from a cloud!

Is it bad I didn't know any of these besides hera, hermes and zeus from the movie? Do they say any other names or were they just assumed for most people and I'm just retarded?

Disney was so wrong about the name of the movie, all of the characters except Hercules are Greek. Hercules was Roman, Heracles (Herakles) was Greek.

I'm surprised how many I was able to guess just from my knowledge of Greek and Roman mythology and Disney's crude caricatures.

Don't downvote, because this is an honest question, but did they actually say the names "Bacchus" and "Cupid" in the movie? Because those are the Roman names. I mean so is "Hercules," but still...

Couldn't get Hera until I remembered she wasn't the villain of the Disney version. And I think I speak for everyone when I ask "Who the heck was Boreas?"

@Spacemaniac The Roman name for Dionysus is Bacchus. Boreas is the god of the North Wind.

I said "Boreas", not "Bacchus". Looked it up and he was the god of the north wind. Don't remember that being in the movie, but then it's been quite a few years.

@JBNelson Maybe, since Hera, Hermes and Zeus should be capitalized.

Thanks, Disney, for ruining Greek and Roman mythology by mixing the two in the movie. You know, the same way you screwed up Pocahontas.
