I am ... less than whelmed.

I do like the explanation for why the castlefolk were cursed as well.

...and Gastón is a murderer. Nice. I mean, indirectly, but still, tying someone up for the wolves?

Hi, random song.

Hi, random person.

Lol. "Romeo and Juliet is my favorite play." "Well, that's hardly a surprise."

CGI Talking Beast-Mouth weirds me out. And reminds me oddly of Aslan idek.

Dear movie: live action musicals have to have the actors singing even just what they think. Movies *dont have to do that -- thoughts can be sung over the action.

The animation of Mrs Potts and Chip bug me.

"Too touristy?" -- wtf. Too colloquial!

"I've spent the last five days looking for you" -- I really don't understand the timeline. How long were Gastón and Maurice out looking? G and LF were talking like they'd just gotten back???

...okay wtf are the things in Belle's ears (getting ready for the dance) idgi

And when/why/how did someone who left Paris as an infant learn to ballroom dance? (Okay, her father taught her ... why would a poor artist know how to dance???)

(Why all these new songs but not "if I can't love her"??? Iiclh is awesome. I mean I know why the original songs, but.)

(Also these songs are dumb *grumble*)

K um why do the villagers have torches just for Maurice being taken away?

And how does he know where to go? Even viewing the mirror -- "show the castle" != "show the way to the castle".

Aaaand yay LeFou finally seeing the truth

Pausing.

Note to self: possible scene for writing -- beauty does the "I'm not truly free" line, beast desires to set her free, Beauty kisses his cheek and says thank you, and he loses himself in self-pity ... until she asks him why he's not coming in for dinner and he realizes that she's chosen to stay. "You weren't happy here!" "I wasn't happy being a prisoner. That's not the same thing."
