Um..... yeah. Sorry. In honor of The Princess and of the Frog, I'm posting talkbacks for a whole bunch of Disney 2D movies. I'll post them in the Disney board from now on.
 
It has been many years since I have seen this movie, but I love the music from the transformation sequence. I have it on my MP3 player.
 
I really need to buy this movie on DVD... or at least buy the soundtrack. The visuals in this movie are truly amazing, and the music is great.
 
It was going to be re-released in 3D in February, but they're waiting until 2011 to release it so it will coincide with the 20th anniversary.
 
For some strange reason, this is the only 90's movie in the Disney Canon that my family DOESN'T own (yet we apparently own the Christmas midquel), and thus I haven't seen it in a decade or so...

I really should pick up a DVD of this one day.
 
Yeah, because even the "theatrical cut" of the movie still contains backgrounds that were re-drawn for the IMAX "special edition" release of the movie. :mad: That, and the "Beast Stutter" is completely missing ("Y-y-you wanna stay in the tower?!"). Like The Lion King, I hope the eventual Blu-Ray release will offer the genuine theatrical version.
 
I like Beauty and the Beast...it's been one of my favorite Disney movies since I first saw it back in '91....I love the songs (especially "Belle",the title song,and "Gaston",despite the fact I don't even like him),and think the Beast is one of their more interesting characters (he starts of as being spoiled/mean and ends up being redeemed by falling in love with Belle)...
 
I rather like this movie. It has some gourgous art, everything looks great. And Gaston is one of my favorite Disney villains. He's massive ego causes him to steal whatever scene he's in, and his transformation from just an egotestical jerk to a full blown villain was great.

All in all, very good.
 
probably my favorite disney movie

hopefully the 2-disc dvd won't be as bad as the other dvd previously released

but at least i still have my vhs:p
 
Well, one can only hope the Blue Ray and new DVD realize is better, after all, they're calling it the Diamond Edition...it better be good.
 
Probably THE best score out of all the flicks during this period, both during the numbers and the other sequences (like the infamous score for the transformation scene). Gaston is awesome, both the character himself and that song that sticks to your brain like chewing gum ("and every last inch of me's covered in hair!"), and the design of the Beast is great. Other than that, it's okay, but still the most watchable out of all the Disney films made during this era.
 
What do you guys think of the "Human Again" sequence?

Anyone else think it's really at odds with the rest of the movie's tone? It's just... SO, SOOOO cartoony.
 
I think maybe if they toned down the brightness of that sequence it would've looked more like the original. However the song itself is good (being a Howard Ashman song as well).
