 FACT: When Phoebus and Quasimodo are arguing about the necklace that  Esmeralda gave to Quasimodo with the location of the Court of  Miracles, Phoebus says that he has been in four continents. However,  the movie is set in 1482, when the only continents known by the  Europeans were Africa, Asia and Europe. America was found in 1492,  Australia in 1606 and Antarctica in 1773.
