Disney’s Beauty and the Beast

We had a brief moment were we (Jeremy, Andrew my cousin’s husband, and I) made fun of the movie. I like this cartoon though.

My complaints:
· The curse of being a beast is not so bad. The Crocodile Hunter would have agreed it was a beautiful creature: it’s super human strength, it’s animal-like ability to gracefully move around and leap staircases in a single bound…Wild. I would love to be that creature.
· The beast looked better than his human form, especially when light was coming out of his toes. What was that all about?
· If he was a prince, why was he answering the door when that enchantress came by?

Jeremy:
· No surprise that he was all upset that the enchantress even came knocking at the door at such a late hour. I’m surprised he didn’t say that the door was for the prince’s connivance.
· The enchantress was a bad witch because she goes around punishing the Prince. Was it in her jurisdiction? (Question mine.)

Andrew
· I forget what he said about it. I guess he didn’t like the whole book-reading bit. (Bell’s obsession.)

The computer animated ballroom dance sceene was awesome.

I like Bell too. Last time I saw parts of the movie, she reminded me of Melanie Carter. I think it is still Carter.

Anyway, not Bell’s beauty but more of her demeanor or kindness reminded me of the kind Melanie.
