It’s not really Stockholm syndrome. Not really
3:08 uhhh I Mean it’s the same movie/story
6:00 I think it’s because that’s ALL they ever see her do.
8:42 well it’s prince adams responsibility. It’s supposed to be his fault they were cursed as well
28:35 Wilhelm scream
At first glance it looks like it might be Stockholm syndrome but this actually is not. Belle never let go of who she was and never compromised her morals. The beast was the one who changed for her and fell in love with her rather than the other way around. The beast also realized what he was doing was wrong when you see him feel shame after his outburst that caused her to run away. You see his change when he said to Gaston "get out" quietly and calmly and not the crazy way he did before.
Also, she gives her word that she won't leave but she isn't being held physically against her will. the second it's too much for her she does leave
Cinema Therapy has an EXCELLENT episode about Beauty and the Beast and Stockholm Syndrome, and what Stockholm Syndrome actually is vs what the internet perception of it has become. It's a fantastic watch, as is most everything on their channel.
I totally agree. Belle is fearless and strong and witty and clever and compassionate. That’s what makes her my #1 favorite Disney Princess and her story with the Beast my #1 favorite Disney movie of all time. Because to me, the movie - along with every Disney and Pixar movie- tells a beautiful life lesson that teaches us how to be a better person with kindness, love, and selflessness.
@@kriscynical I LOVE Cinema Therapy!
@@the_nikster1 I can't wait for part 2 of their Katniss analysis!
Please "The Hunchback of Notre Dame" and "Spirit: Stallion of the Cimarron" 💙
Spirit Spirit Spirit!!
Both amazing and beautiful movies!!
And the road to el dorado!!
I second!
100% YES to watching Spirit!!! Such a great movie!
It's not Stockholm Syndrome, she left when he let her go and she even friendzoned him right after; she probably wouldn't have returned if he wasn't in danger, he was her friend, but she chose to love him romantically when he was already changed, willing to die. Anyway, great classic!
The lion king, Lady and the Tramp, Ella Enchanted, Willy Wonka (1971), Little Lord Fauntleroy (1980) and Peter Pan (2003).
I don't think you can change ur feelings about someone that quickly; from seeing someone as a friend to loving them romantically. I also didn't get the impression that she wouldn't return after she left, but everyone interprets it their own way I guess.
@@KYZA619 Well, she knew he was running out of time, and yet she went away anyway, but still, maybe I expressed myself wrongly. I meant that when she was forced to love, she didn't love, she just felt compassion and simple affection, but once free (when he was no longer her captor) she chose to love him. So technically it's not SS. But yes, it's subjective ☺️
I think the point is that she CHOOSE to love him and be with him when she was free and saw him die.
When she stayed in the castle she developed feelings of affection for him but she didnt want to stay or be with him
A little fact for this one: the gargoyles on the outside of the castle are actually the earlier concepts of the Beast. Now that is some quality use of sketches
Elisa from Disney's show Gargoyles is disappointed with that decision 😅
In addition to...pretty much all of the monster statues throughout the castle I believe.
Part of the qualifications to be a “Disney Princess” is they must be born royal, marry a royal (Belle falls into this category) or perform a heroic act (like Mulan).
They must also only have 1 movie centered around them. This is why Venelope isn't a princess. And they must make a certain amount at the box office. The Carlin Brothers made a video on the Princess Criterias.
@@addictedtoJB those aren't official rules, though. On the official Disney Princess website they just list the three criteria T. Bartley mentioned. Vanelope is a Queen. Not a princess. Same with Kida. Which is why they're not considered princesses.
Edit: this is also why Anna and Elsa aren't technically considered Disney Princesses. Because both were/are Queens.
Or their movies gross a lot🤭😂….
"I like him as the beast" said everyone who's ever watched this movie.
YES
When I took my fiance to see the movie, we were stuck sitting right in front of a mom with an 8-ish year old son and a 4-year-old girl and the girl screamed her head off the entire climax of the movie, from the moment Gaston hits the Beast with his arrow until after the credits started to roll. (The mother didn't want to leave her totally engrossed son alone in the theater, so she tried to get the squalling girl to stop.) And the girl didn't stop crying at the end of the movie because "Beast" was dead and gone and now there was this human guy there kissing Belle that she didn't connect with the Beast at all.
Tbvh I love him as the Beast, but as a human prince he's totally my type too! Him and Eric are my top 2 disney princes in terms of looks (Eugene too, if we consider him a prince after marrying Rapunzel)
@@heyitsmira17 Yeah same, idk why everyone thinks that Adam looks weird😔
The staff who worked on the movie also admitted that no matter how they design the prince's human form, it could never look as satisfying as the beast form.
just another tell on why belle is “odd” is that she’s the only one who wears blue in the town (apart from maurice and the beast i believe) and it’s a cute way of saying that they belong together because the beast also wear blue. just a fun fact. and any princess you see with gloves was married into royalty, anyone who doesn’t was born into it!!!
What? Gloves?
In her ballgown, just like Cinderella or Tiana.
The soundtrack Tales as old as time won the Oscar award for the best song.
It always confused me how the enchantress is not considered evil. I mean, she comes in disguise and wants a prince to just give her a room... Who would just let a stranger into their home, rose or no rose??? The prince might have been rude about it, but he had a right to turn her down. And when she doesnt get what she wants she not only transforms him into a beast, but also his servants. What did they do wrong to get the punishment to be ... things. And also, all people in that kingdom seem to have forgotten about them, so if someone's mother or husband or something was in the village at the time, they just forgot their loved ones. That's pretty messed up, I'd say. What she did was worse than him being rude.
Not only that but if they've been stuck like this for 10 years and he has to break the curse by his 18th bday that means he was only 8ish when this whole mess started. Where were his parents?
@@Wanderingartemis and if you're 8 years old you'll happen to be rude. You become a better person if you grow up.
The last person who let in an old woman was snow white and look what happened to her
But the royal family is supposed to take care of their people, ugly or not, he just dismissed a subject because of the appearance, what kind of king would he turn out to be? Also he had enough rooms and food for her and he wasn´t in danger, he was surrounded by servants nobles and everyone in the castle, I don´t think "stranger" applies as an excuse for a future king to ignore the needs of his people
The ballroom was one of the first uses Disney made of 3D animation.
Disney first used 3D animation back during Basil of Baker Street (aka The Great Mouse Detective). Back then, the 3D objects were animated inside the computer and then printed out and painted traditionally. But this scene was really impressive for the time.
Actually Walt Disney Animation Studios used some computer animation one year before Basil in The Black Cauldron (1985) which was the first.
@@JeremyHighHill ..I think you just mixed 2 movies together lol
@@JeremyHighHill They did? Well, the productions overlapped quite a bit so it’s possible that the 3D work for Basil was done first, but the Cauldron came out first. In all behind the scenes materials, Basil is always mentioned being the first.
As I recall from when I was studying trivia for a contest, the first use was all the way back in Fox and the Hound. I think it was used for smoke in one scene. :)
This got nominated for an Oscar over a decade before they introduced the Best Animated Movie category... it was just that damn good.
The Beast: Go anywhere you like, except the West Wing!
Belle: What's in the West Wi-
Beast: IT IS FORBIDDEN!!!
JV: What's in the West Wing?
Audience: It's _forbidden_ !
He could have been like its my room its private 😂 but no ITs FOrbiDden
This is not Stockholm syndrome, even though it's always mistaken as such. Many days pass between when Belle becomes prisoner and the moment she realizes she loves him, also she doesn't even start to develop any sort of feelings (not even friendship or trust) until he does a nice thing for her (the Beast saves her life). From then on he shows he actually cares about her, starts letting down his guard and behaves like a gentleman even reaching the point when he realizes he needs to let her go. At the same time Belle is able to see the kind man behind the mask of the scary beast, but she doesn't fall in love with him until he sets her free. Then she's free and she has saved her father (one of her top priorities since the beginning): then and only then she goes back to the Beast to save him, because she cares about him and upon seing him again she realizes she is in love with him.
Sorry if this comment is waaay too long, but I felt like I really needed to explain why Beauty and the Beast doesn't represent Stockholm syndrome. Have a nice day!
I agree that it's NOT a Stockholm syndrome, but it could be Lima syndrome.
If the spell is broken when she starts to love him,then when she said he was his friend she was being REAL. Like she probably had a little crush on him but she didn't love him until the very end so I don't know why people say it's an Stockholm syndrome story
I can't quite get over how so many commentators and reactors keep calling the films of the Disney renaissance _"old"._ Snow White, Cinderella, Bambi, Pinocchio-- the movies Walt himself worked on in his lifetime-- *_THOSE,_* to me, are the old, classic Disney. These ones of the '90's, Little Mermaid, Aladdin, Lion King, are certainly classics too, in their own right, but of a different and more recent era. I was in high school when these came out, for crying out loud, and I'm no grandparent yet; they CAN'T be Old...!
I’m in the same boat, but with early 2000s Disney movies. I grew up watching the likes of Atlantis and Dinosaur and Brother Bear, and those all are around 20 years old at this point.
Yeah, they're not THAT old. Only 20-30 years.
Beauty and the Beast was the first movie in the cinema history to be nominated in the best movie category at the Oscars. After this, the other animated movie was Up.
Moreover, in this movie there isn't Stockholm syndrome, because she fall in love of him after he free her. I advise you to watch Therapist reacts to movie, there it is well explained this concept.
And it is to this day the only traditionally animated movie which ever received a nomination.
Up was nominated for (and won) Best Animated Picture. The Academy created a separate category so that Animation would no longer be a “threat” to live action movies. Beauty and the Beast was the first animated movie to be nominated in the general Best Picture category, back when only 5 nominees were allowed. Since then, the category was doubled to 10 nominees, and PIXAR had a nomination (but no win).
You're hearing the genius of Alan Menken and Howard Ashman in the music. Ashman tragically passed away from HIV/AIDS before this movie was released. The last song he wrote was "A Whole New World" for Aladdin.
If you look at the very end of the credits of Beauty and the Beast, you'll see a dedication to Ashman that always makes me tear up a little since these '90s Renaissance films had such a huge impact on me growing up (they're literally the reason why I'm an illustrator now in my late 30s). It's beautifully worded, saying he _"Gave a mermaid her voice and a beast his soul."_
howard ashman only wrote arabian nights, friend like me, and prince ali while a whole new world and the rest of the songs in aladdin were written by tim rice due to the former's passing.
@@ilike2365 Ashman and Menken were working on a concept for a song to accompany a carpet ride in the film, but Ashman passed away before it could be finished. Menken then continued developing the concept with Tim Rice until it became A Whole New World. One of the books I have about the making of the film has an anecdote in it about Ashman working on the AWNW concept on a legal pad and pencil from his couch because he was getting too sick to work anywhere else.
I've been a hardcore Aladdin fan and collector for almost 30 years so I know the history of the production inside out and backwards. I even have a jacket and calendar book that were given to the production team in my collection. lol
@@kriscynical ohh that’s quite interesting. in other words, howard ashman is a genius in how storytelling works in animated musicals and his legacy lives on ✨
@@ilike2365 Yes, absolutely. 💜
@@ilike2365 Yeah. Menken is good, but since he lost Ashman, he never quite reached the same heights. He is just missing his genius texter.
13:38 “I’m trying to think like Gaston”
That’s your first mistake.
BTW The Beast is like 11 years old. His parents pretty much sent him away to one of their holiday castles due to the French Revolution. Princes are responsible for the entire castle and the castle does his bidding, that's why the witch cursed not just the 11 year old prince but the entire castle.
Wow, the fact that castle was a holiday one never crossed my mind, bit it makes perfect sence. If that is so why didn’t his parents look for him? Were they… killed?
@@Pollicina_db It's just personal speculation, but the French do have a habit of beheading royalty.
The Holiday Home idea lends credence to why this town didn't revolt and storm this castle before the events as it wasn't a place that collected tax nor did it govern the land.
So this provincial town, that is more or less self-governed and under a different lordship, probably would not care about a lesser prince taking shelter on the castle grounds.
The main difference between the special edition version and the original is the addition of one scene / song ("human again")
Also, NO, NO, NO, this IS *_NOT_* Stockholm Syndrome!!!!
Long argument, and I'm tired of rehashing it, but trust me-- it's not.
Which is a shame because "Human Again" *slaps*
@@darkmelodies2694 It does, but i totally understand why they cut it. It throws out the pacing of the movie and doesn't really contribute to the actual story/plot. But it makes sense in a special edition.
@@mycroft16 True, I mean it does show them cleaning the ballroom and other rooms of the castle, but honestly I like the big reveal a bit better
@@mycroft16
They didn’t exactly cut it; at least not for pacing; they could not figure out how to make the song work right, until the stage musical version showed them how to do it (the key was dropping the passage-of-time element. The song was originally going to be a montage sequence taking place over several days or weeks)
the cleaning was cut out of the old version because of time. when they did this they re-animated it and added it in because they loved it so much.
Mariah Carey and Whitney Houston did "When you believe" from The Prince of Egypt. Another masterpiece you can watch.
A lot of these princess movies are based off of fairytales that were written a very long time ago. The stories take place in different time periods, which I think is still important to look at, even if we don't agree with aspects of those periods or have come a long way since. You still get a lot out of it.
8:25 you’re right, if you think about it a little the witch was actually really mean. She not only turned the pets and the staff into objects, but also the prince was only around 11 years old when he became the beast. The narrator states that the rose lasts until “[the prince’s] 21st year” (aka his 21st bday) and they’ve been like this for 10 years. So, the witch cursed a pre-teen boy and all his people for a decade because he… was mean about letting a homeless-looking old woman into his home 😅
However, human Chip is clearly younger than ten. Meaning either:
Lumiere can't keep track of how many years have passed (not surprising with the weather all messed up near the castle--notice how it's always either snowy or rainy) and/or just said ten for dramatic effect
Or, "his twenty-first year" meant his twenty-first year as the Beast, and no one in the castle would age while the castle was under the spell. The torn portrait that must have been painted before the prince became the Beast looks no younger than his human form after he changes back.
@@dbseamz hmm 🤔 now you’ve got me thinking. Even if Lumiere is exaggerating or mistaken, I don’t think he would go over double the time they’ve been cursed for, so at least 5 years must have passed. The wiki states Chip is 7yo, which means the beast would’ve been 14-16 years old when he was cursed, still a teen, probably not cool to curse him like that. If we assume the curse meant “21st year as a beast” instead, and no one has aged in that time, that would make the Beast… actually 42 years old?? (if he was “frozen” at 21 and it’s been 21 years) I don’t know if I like that, considering Belle is 17 😅
@@tsukihimeyfanthe idea of “frozen ages” is always kind of strange, especially when there’s characters with non-frozen ages that they interact with. Under this theory, when the Beast turns human, he’s whatever age he was when he became a beast (let’s say 18-I’ve known high school seniors who look like him), but he’s had ten years of beast-hood as well as his first eighteen years of human life. Does that “count” towards his maturity? Does that make him the mind of a 28-year-old in the body of an 18-year-old? Or would it not because he really wasn’t maturing during that time?
Of course, that means that the rose petals fell faster than the enchantress said they would, if we are assuming she meant 21 years as a beast. I do sort of have a theory for that, although I’m not sure how much sense it makes: when Belle first discovers the rose there are a lot of petals still on it and not many already fallen despite the time being half up (again, assuming Lumiere was right and ten years have passed). Petals start falling like crazy during her time with the Beast, which seems to span the length of a single winter (it’s autumn in the village when Maurice goes to the fair, then looks like early spring in the village when Gaston is rousing the mob). So my theory there is that Beast’s actions influence the petals; when he acts like a jerk toward Belle his time runs out faster because he’s acting against what he needs to do to break the spell. That’s how the rose is almost out of petals by the time he does change his ways and fall in love with her.
@@dbseamz It's because Beast was a living creature and the others were turned into objects, so he aged and the others didn't. The portrait is also very easily explained, many royals who became monarchs at young ages had portraits that made them look like they were adults. The original screenplay also mentions he was 11 when it happened, tho I wouldn't take that as confirmation since things change between screenplays but it does line up with what's said in the movie.
This misunderstanding is why they made it overcomplicated in the live action remake. There is also the sequel where he does look younger in the flashback but not really 11 (unless you squint I guess) but the direct to video sequels and old tv shows never work 100% perfectly with the original movies canon (looking at you Hercules)
Fae creatures can be like that i guess 😂
I love this movie. It was my favourite growing up. My fave Disney Princess. (She married a prince so is now a princess). Everyone calls it a movie about Stockholm's syndrome but she had the chance to leave after just one day and she choose to stay. Not because she fell in love but because she could seen behind the imagine of him. And the beast for first time prioritized someone else because he fell in love.
Belle is my favorite Disney Princess too, she liked reading, I do too, my mom calls me a walking encyclopedia. Did you know the only real princess was Pocahontas, but she was only 12 when she met John Smith, she married a man named John Rolfe, they had a son named Thomas, Pocahontas died from a plague when she was 21 or 22 years old, her son Thomas was 2, when she died.
I liked Ariel till I could read well, because she had red hair like I do.
No Gaston is definitely dead. If you pause on just the right frame as he's falling, they actually put little skulls in his eyes. 👀
I heard that in the original script, Gaston was supposed to survive the fall, but he ends eaten by the wolves, since he's hurt and can't run away.
@@pierrephilippine7427 I haven't heard about that myself but it's no less than he would deserve, that's for damn sure. 😡
@@pierrephilippine7427 Ah, the Scar death.
31:27
@@pierrephilippine7427 Wow! That's dark! But I guess not so different from what happened to Scar.
I recommend you watch “Anastasia”.It’s my favourite princess movie by far.❤️
LOVE Anastatia (...and Dmitri!)
Not Disney, though.
The ballroom scene is my favorite
@@80sCanadian even though I know it's owned by Disney now, it isn't Disney to me. I grew up with it and that probably slants my view that way.
@@80sCanadian sadly it owned by Disney. It is one of the best non Disney movies ever that's a cartoon. The Prince of Egypt and Anastasia are probably my top 2. They are just that good from start to finish. And the music is both is phenomenal.
it's not stock holm syndrome if the abuser doesn't abuse and instead cares for the so called prisoner and then lets them go for their happiness
Falling in love with someone while in captivity isn't Stockholm syndrome. Falling in love BECAUSE of being in captivity is.
Beauty and the Beast gets better and better every time you watch it. Also that's my favorite Disney animated film.
This prologue scene never fails to give me goosebumps.
the princess and the frog is always one i love seeing people watch, its always so good
This was the first movie to be nominated for Best Picture
The term “Disney Princess” is more of a branding term for the lead female characters that are nobility, married into nobility, or performed a courageous act, and they are mostly from critically successful films.
Belle is included because she saved the Beast and married him after he became a prince again.
So glad you enjoyed! This is my favorite movie of all time ❤️ (Also, you mentioned possible use of CGI… 99% of it was hand drawn, but that shot when they’re dancing in the ballroom and the “camera” goes down from the ceiling was done with computer animation. It was really revolutionary for 1991 and helped spark more use of computer animation in future animated movies!)
That "camera" movement though... ending on seeing Belle's underdress.
The Disney Golden age are still some of my favorite Disney movies to date. Nothing can overtake the nostalgia I get from singing these classic Disney songs and seeing these characters again.
Great reaction! This was Disney’s first use of computer animation, the Little Mermaid being the last fully hand drawn movie. To this day nothing can beat the Disney Renaissance movies! The story takes place before the French Revolution and based on the art style it probably takes place in the 1700s. The only scene not in the original was the song human again. They intended to put it in but it was ultimately cut.
You know you’re getting old when movies from your childhood are considered old! 😏😆
As about the brooms: indeed, in Fantasia there is a segment (The Sorcerer's Apprentice) based on an old tale. It is about a boy who studied magic, but mostly helped his teacher with the household needs. One day the sorcerer went on a trip and told the boy to fill up a large barrel with water before he returned in the evening. The boy decided to make it easier for himself and brought the broom to life, having told it to bring water. But it appeared that he was unable to stop it when the barrel was full, and even chopping the broom in halves didn't work, because the halves turned into full-size brooms that went on bringing the water. This continued until the sorcerer returned and reversed the spell... Man. That is some moral without anybody getting killed
*nitpicking mode on* The Sorcerer's Apprentice is actually based on a ballade, written by famous German poet Schiller. It is especially known for the way it uses onomotopoeia.
I would definitely recommend watching the movie "Klaus", it came out in 2019 but the animation is very nostalgic but with a touch of modern animation that makes it look so much better, and the story line is just beautiful ❤️!
I hope you react to Sleeping Beauty(1959) sometime, it has some of the most beautiful hand drawn animation...every frame is a work of art.
Oh my heart ❤️ I absolutely love the musical score from this version of Beauty and the Beast
Beauty and the beast is my absolute all time favourite film. I must have seen is 10,000 times. And it still stuns me to this day how incredible the animation is and the sound track and music
The teacup ride is a lot older than Beauty and the Beast. The ride is actually from the Alice in Wonderland from 1951 which came out just a few years before Disneyland opened in 1955. The teacups are one of the original rides in the park.
Check out Doug Walker's Disneycember entry for Beauty and the Beast, as he does a pretty good job breaking down why the relationship COULD work.
Main point is that A) She doesn't start respecting him until he mellows out. And B) It's pretty ambiguous as to just how much time is passing. Could easily have Been months, instead of the classic 3-Day romance.
Edit to add: "Human Again" was a cut song that was re-added and animated for the special edition. It originally cut straight from "There May Be Something There" to Beast's baths scene.
As for Gaston, there's a cut scene somewhere of him surviving the fall with a broken leg... only to be eaten by the wolves (rule of 3). This was instead used for Scar's fate in Lion King.... spoiler.
This was a lesson for The Beast as Bell was not the one who needed to grow up. Bell was the teacher, the healer, and the heroine who saved the man from the beast. And they say that all Disney princesses are damsels, NOPE!
I like how you give us your additional thoughts of the movie after the reaction! It's nice to hear longer takes on what you liked/thought!
The song right before the ballroom (when all the servants were cleaning) was added years later
I was once belle for Halloween, my mom made my dress, and there’s actually a recipe online for the grey stuff (it’s delicious!) always wanted to try it
Loved your reaction!! This is my fav movie of all time ❤️ Fun fact Angela Lansbury (ms Potts) didn’t feel comfortable singing beauty and the beast since that’s not her usual but she recorded it and they used her first take for the film! We just passed the 30th anniversary about a week ago it’s crazy.
It would be awesome to see your reaction to Atlantis, treasure planet, The Goofy Movie is another fav of mine. So good
The teacup ride at WDW and Disneyland is actually called Mad Tea Party and it is based on the tea party with the Mad Hatter from the movie Alice in Wonderland.
There is a Beauty and the Beast ride at Tokyo Disneyland, and you ride in vehicles that are tea cups based off of Chip. It is an astoundingly amazing ride with animatronics that are as damn near real life as they've every had.
I’m so happy that your channel is growing , you deserve it ❤️
Can't tell you how happy I was when I saw that this reaction was up! Even happier still that you enjoyed it! I actually got to see this in theaters when I was little. The Beast's roaring scared the heck out of me as a kid lol. But yeah the animation is absolutely gorgeous and smooth and as you said, holds up incredible well.
Very much looking forward to Pocahontas, another childhood favorite. :)
Can't wait to see more of your reactions to more disney classic films like Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, The Little Mermaid and Cinderella etc
Yes yes yes! “It’s the different time”!
People always forgot that!
It’s why the characters were struggling!
Some people would just take that saying out of content and was like “Disney princesses are sending bad messages” 🙄
“Oh, she turned the servants too. Ok”
“Even the dog?! That witch was mean!!!”
How could you not love the reaction difference 😂
“No, he’s not evil, he’s just a jerk” 😂
I’m putting it in the best comment list😂
‘She’s so beautiful, and look at me!’
“And you’re a jerk” 😂
Yah, reminds me of those guys who said girls only look at the face or the money, while they don’t know the main reason was that they are jerks😀
I totally remember the BGM especially at the opening.
I love that so much!
Belle was a badass, people just forgot...
She fought wolves for her horse!
And she first argued with a roaring beast, then the village hero, believing herself’s right!
And then, she’s strong enough to hold a huge beast from falling.
She’s amazing.
18:37 Want to make a minor correction in your list of movie horses- the horse in Never Ending Story was Artax; Atreyu was the boy who rode him lol
25:46 Growing up I always thought the way the movie did Belle's reunion with Maurice made sense, but you bring up a good point with two alternate options- 1. Beast probably could have gone with her to rescue Maurice, if it didn't seem like he was confining himself to his castle and grounds; or 2. Belle probably could have brought Maurice back to the castle (which had become almost like a second home), she just figured she could take care of him better back at their house (though she could have had more help nursing him at the castle). This leaves the main reason why Belle rescued him alone and took him back to their house in the village was so that the Gaston subplot could catch up to her, making the climax happen.
i think belle is just realy kind and not a victim of Stockholm syndrome
Theory is that the book she’s reading at the beginning is “aladdin”.
The music and the animation is always so impressive in this!! It's so inspiring how this was hand drawn! Also the Disney Princess thing, that is alike a title franchise thing. It isn't for every single Disney movie, but only a select few. It's a title given to the women in the Disney movies who either are already a princess (Moana, Rapunzel, etc), marry a prince (Belle, etc), or preformed a heroic deed (this is specifically for Mulan lol). There are a few other rules what classifies a "Disney Princess" but it is fun to learn about. Whatever hand drawn movie you wanna watch next I will be excited to see!
I personally like the first edition version (vhs format) because of the lighting and the colors it matches the moods and emotions and adds to the story something "hauntingly beautiful" if that makes sense, here is a clip as an example th-cam.com/video/Y7IN749_pzA/w-d-xo.html. And it also blends better with the cgi. It is the only way I can imagine watching this movie. But the hd version isn't bad in any way just for me personally I like the story better in the original format. :)
VHS does have a certain appealing quality to it. Like Lofi music! I grew up on old VHS Disney movies (little mermaid, Mulan, Notre Dame) and I kinda like those ways of watching more.
It wasn't Mariah Carey who sang a version of "Beauty and the Beast" for the movie soundtrack, it was Celine Dion ❤️
If you appreciate art and animation you NEED to watch Sleeping Beauty! It's literally a moving painting, and it came out in 1959, so it's all hand done!
Now you see why I love Beauty And The Beast the most out of all Disney movies. This movie touched my heart since I was a toddler and I have watched it COUNTLESS TIMES for the last 26 years of my life. Belle and Beast are my top favorite Disney couple because Beast matures and changes into a better person for Belle. Even when he gave her the castle library as token of his affections, I thought it was the kindest, most beautiful, most romantic thing he has done.
You should definitely do the 2D but you should also do the older films before the 90's. I'd recommend starting with Disney's first full film animated film Snow White and work your way up by the dates. That way you can pick up on the changes in style,techniques and themes. And yes you should check the original styles.
The radio single of the “Beauty and the Beast” song featured Peabo Bryson and Celine Dion. (She sounded kind of like Mariah in the early 90’s… so, close!!)
ALSO. Disney turned this movie into a Broadway musical in 1994. I saw it in previews with the original cast and it was AWESOME. A lot of new songs were written for it - including a solo love-ballad for the Beast called “If I Can’t Love Her” that I am STILL obsessed with to this day! More male Disney leads need solo romantic ballads.
(That being said- PLEASE REVIEW “FROZEN” and “FROZEN 2!”)
"Why do they have pitch forks?"
Because you can't do an angry job scene without torches and pitch forks. It's the law. Lol
FUN FACT: this is actually the first animated movie that combined both hand drawn animation and CG animation to make complex camera movements..
Thank you for sharing your family's journey with us! Atypical and Move to heaven both amazing shows regarding people on the spectrum and there are also a collection of shorts on Disney+ and I also know many cartoons and kids shows and characters Princess Charlotte can relate too
At 31:27, when Gaston is falling you can see little skulls in the pupils of his eyes, but only for a split second.
The song "Human Again" was a scene that was cut from the original version, but they restored it in the special edition. "Human Again" is also played in the broadway performance. The main moral of the story is "Beauty is found within" as the beginning of the movie said.
The intro/prologue music to Beauty and the Beast remains superior
Belle doesn’t start as a princess, but she becomes one by marrying the beast. I’d love to see your reaction of the Disney live action Beauty and the Beast with Emma Watson.
Original versions are usually better... anyway, beautiful reaction, as always!
The point is mostly about someone who respects your vs someone who doesn't. Gaston never respects Belle, he doesn't even care for her, only for himself. The Beast kind of starts out the same way, caring more about lifting the spell than Belle herself, but he eventually puts her happiness over his own, hence eventually deserving love.
On a side note, it is also about what makes a "beast". While the Beast becomes more and more human, Gaston becomes more and more beastly, but the REASON why Gaston changes this way is largely because society encourages him to act that way. Sadly Beauty and the Beast is still extremely topical.
You know Keith David voiced a character in a Disney series and in one of the episodes his character and a woman referenced this movie in their costumes. And apparently you said the name of the series.
The Beauty and the Beast song you were thinking of was probably the Celine Dion and Peabo Bryson version! It was all over the radio in the early 90s. It's such an amazing version.
The Beast is voiced by Robby Benson.
Cogsworth and the narrator are the same actor, the late David Ogden Stiers.
Chip was voiced by Bradley Michael Pierce. He was supposed to only have one line, but the directors liked his performance so much, they gave him more lines.
Tony Jay, who voiced the asylum owner, later voiced Frollo in The Hunchback of Notre Dame.
Howard Ashman, the song writer, sadly passed away during production. The film was dedicated to him.
Disney has always been one of my greatest loves, but the new guys who run it really have to stop taking this copyright stuff too seriously, because it makes them sound like jerks.
Classic movies are the best, they got way more heart in it and u can really see the hard work they put in there over the years
No one is vain like Gaston, causes pain like Gaston, no one falls to his death in the rain like Gaston.
The version you played on your reaction video did include new scenes and new animation, but it was mostly in the “Human Again” song number that was added to the original cut. To your question, the digital ballroom was in the original 1991 version, and was quite a spectacular surprise for the time. Digital animation was still in its early days; we didn’t know if it would work or not. Thanks for the reaction video…it came at a great time. November 22nd was the 30 year anniversary of its release. You didn’t mention that, so I wasn’t sure if you knew or not, or was it amazing coincidence timing. Cheers, Gary Trousdale, director of Beauty and the Beast
PS- now review my other ones, Hunchback of Notre Dame and Atlantis, The Lost Empire 😬
Watch 31:26 - 31:28 in slow motion. Gaston’s eyes reveal his fate.
a 10-year-old boy called a witch ugly
the witch: sorry man, I guess it's time to bewitch you and condemn you to desolation in despair 🤷🏻♀️
And everyone else with you, even if they are just trying to earn a living and might have family outside of the castle.
The Special Edition of this movie just came with a song newish to the film called "Human Again" where the cursed people imagine being human again. It was originally written for the film but was taken out for timing purposes...only for it to be brought into the literal spotlight for the Broadway show based on the film. For an anniversary event, they re-released the film with the finished version of the song.
great videos, i pretty much cry every disney movie at least once too lol, if youre going through all the classic hand drawn movies you cant go wrong with Sword in the Stone, or the Hunchback of Notre Dame, or Robin Hood. theyll probably be sitting at the top of my classic disney favorites for a long time to come
"Belle" is 1 of the "12 Disney Princess". She's the 5th.
Originally Jodi Benson (Ariel) was considered to play Belle before Paige O'Hara. I'd never replace Paige, though I'd have loved to have seen Jodi play Belle.
"nothing bad is gonna happen!"
*one second later*
"uh oh..."
"Why did the staff get turned? They didn't do anything!"
^Questions we've been asking since 1991. Lol.
"Calm down, Mr. Beast!"
^also what we've been saying since 1991. Lol
"She said no, man. It's over."
^If only... haha!
I'm sure somebody else has pointed this out already but just in case they haven't. Though Belle doesn't start out as a Princess, because she marries a Prince Belle then becomes a Princess.
This was also I think the first main time they used CGI asking with handdrawn animation for the ballroom scene and it blew everyone's mind. Then they took it to another level with three flying carpet scene in Aladdin. It was such a big deal. I literally remember them showing that scene on my TV for the first time as a kind of behind the scenes thing because it was such a big thing.
Lol I loved how your eyes got big when the explosion happened at the beginning after Belle claims her father's a genius 🤣
Be Our Guest was originally meant for Belle's father until they decided it would be better with Belle.
I know most people don’t like it, but “Beauty & The Beast, The Enchanted Christmas” takes place during the time Belle spent with the beast, and expands on their relationship a bit. Plus Tim Curry plays the main villain, so I consider it worth a watch. 😊
Edit: fun fact; Cogsworth is voiced by the late great David Ogden Stiers (who voiced Jumba in Lilo & Stitch), and the guy gaston hires to take belle's father is voiced by Tony Jay (Frollo in Hunchback Of Notre Dame)
Answering a couple of questions you asked (not sure if anyone else has answered them yet): No, the Disneyland teacup ride was not inspired by this but by the tea party scene in Alice in Wonderland, and was one of the original rides when Disneyland opened. The movie's time period is eighteenth century, which is when Perrault recorded the original fairy tale. And the computer animation in the ballroom scene was pioneering stuff in 1991: nothing like it had ever been done in an animated movie before.
loved this !!
i have a ton of movies id love to suggest, several are already being suggested so i'll just sit tight and patiently await. thanks for uploading this on youtube!even when copywrite can be a pain
Of the "classic" princess movies, Beauty and the Beast is my favorite.
Share this video on Twitter, Facebook, Whatsapp, Discord, Reddit, MySpace, MSN, ICQ! Let's get this video to 100k views. I loved it so much 😁
yesterday was the 30th yr anniversary of this film :)
btwYou had to watch the little mermaid first since it is the blueprint...
Have you seen The Good Dinosaur?
If you loved This movie.. Beauty and the Beast : The Enchanted Christmas is one you could react to for next month. :D
Boleh awak reaction ejen ali the movie or boboiboy movie 1 dan 2 ini animasi dari malaysia tapi saya rasa awak akan suka dengan 2 movie ini
Btw the scream is called the Wilhelm scream
Interesting that you watched the version with Human Again, that was initially a deleted song so it went straight from Something There to the famous ballroom scene
What's lovely about this movie and why it's so compelling is that one of the main people who made it was a closeted gay jewish man who not long after it was released died to aids
It's why the mob song is so poignant because it's literally from experience
"whos her animal companion" she doesnt have one, she's got a bunch of furniture lol
I love how the man in charge of the Asylum who Gaston makes the deal with channels an inner Daffy Duck "Thats despicable!"
The second movie is my favorite. It follows Belle and the Beast through how they fell in love. It was a magical winter movie when I was little and had a crush on beast
