Talkie Tuesday: Beauty and the Beast

 

"Tale as old as time ..."

 

Hello everyone!

 

I honestly can't believe I've never put this one on my blog. I'm not ENTIRELY sure what happened here, but I've pretty much covered about a dozen other topics that are somehow connected to this, and yet never touched the OG.

 

Or, the OG as my generation knows it, at least.

 

This past weekend, I was playing Dreamlight Valley and working my butt off to get the two main characters from tonight's movie choice to my village. After succeeding, I felt so inspired and nostalgic that I had to pull up Disney+ just to watch the movie.

 

... I did then follow it with the live-action from 2017 as well, but who's counting?

 

In any event, make sure you have your tissues ready, that you've locked the doors from any and all silly suitors, and that you're prepared for adventure that you can't find anywhere else but in this story.

 

Because we're headed to an enchanted castle to meet a beast, and free him from his curse. Beauty and the Beast a la 1991, everyone!

 

Talkie Tuesday: Beauty and the Beast

"Tale as old as time ..."

Hello everyone!

Finally, Tuesday arrived so that I can sit down and properly get this going. And can you notice that I've been excited for this blog post since the moment I sat down in cinema to watch the movie? 

If you haven't figured it out by now, this post will undoubtedly make it all clear to you.

Now.

Beauty and the Beast, the Disney cartoon version, that is (and never did I think I'd have to make sure people knew what I was talking about ...) is my all-time favourite Disney movie. That wasn't made spectacularly clear to me prior to seeing the live-action movie, however, which is a shame. I was unsure about which princess I preferred, what storyline was the most awesome, but then, last Friday, as the first orchestral notes started and all the hair on my arms stood up straight, I just knew.

Obviously, my parents were already well aware of that fact.

Duh, said my father, that was the first ever Disney cartoon we got you and you saw as a kid when you were four or five years old. That kind of thing sticks with you forever.

Parental wisdom ...

But, without further ado, my review of the live-action Beauty and the Beast!
