Yes, I know what you are talking about. No, you are not hallucinating.

The differences between stories conceived 200+ years ago and stories conceived 100+ years ago with respect to stories that have been disney-fied or "updated" or conceived in the last 100 years is quite stark. Especially with respect to the power (evil?) figures and the heros.

It's not just technology, it's that the complete set of ethics and expectations were some how different. Sufficiently different that many of the old stories don't ring quite right when told in the context of todays world.
