SPOILERS AHEAD, WARNING:

"She had a human father, who is regarded by Maleficent with contempt."

So how come they changed her father to Hades? That makes no sense, she really had nothing in common with him until the third movie, which felt like they just decided to write that in...and even then it was not really anything. Hades and Maleficent is the strangest pair I've ever heard of. No disrespect to the writers of this movie, but this was just a very...interesting choice. I wish they didn't make him her father, and instead maybe he'd been a family friend that betrayed them or something. That way, she could still have the same situation of trying to acquire the ember. Certainly she wouldn've have been able to 'use' it, if she wasn't related to him by blood, but that could have been written differently. She still didn't do much with the ember other than have a stronger resistance to Audrey. This plot change added very little to the movie, other than an additonal song number.
