"Young Frankenstein"

[edit]

As Young Frankenstein is a loose 'sequel' to the original Frankenstein story, one presumes that the original Frankenstein seen at the beginning in skeleton form had his own Elizabeth whom he married, as per the Universal films' continuity — and that was the real Elizabeth Lavenza. That the modern-day mad scientist's girlfriend is called Elizabeth is surely no coincidence, but she is not, properly, a reimagined Elizabeth Lavenza any more than Gene Wilder's character "is" Frankenstein. --Scrooge MacDuck (talk) 14:26, 12 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

When did she find out about the monster

An Error

[edit]

This article states (about Victor Frankenstein): "when he dies in the novel's closing pages, however, he makes peace with the monster and forgives him." Not so! until shortly before his death Victor still intends to hunt the monster down and kill it, and he urges his friend Walton to take over the task of destroying the monster when he realizes he's dying. (Frankenstein Chapter XXIV). I didn't edit the article because I assume whoever wrote it this way had some reason for doing so (different editions? idiosyncratic reading? something I missed?). In answer to the above question: Elizabeth is unaware of the monster's existence until her wedding night, when the monster appears and murders her.

No neutral

[edit]

This part is evidently no neutral and more like the Editor's opinion "treating her like something someone owns, not like a person. Elizabeth Lavenza is beautiful, which is the reason why she stood out to Victor's parents at the orphanage. She is also quite dull, not the smartest of beings but one could say her beauty is a reasonable trade." --Dereck Camacho (talk) 02:12, 13 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
