the category is. alan menken deep emotional solos in disney remakes sung by the love interest who had none in the original movie but definitely deserved one cause they have their own story to tell and it really puts them on the same level as the main character

one of the nice things about Live Action Remakes is that their terribleness makes me to go back and consider what was working so well about the originals.
Like nope, didn’t like that new Beauty and the Beast—but why? What part was the most awkward/felt the most wrong? Belle. Belle was the most awkward, disjointed-bone element in the Live Action film.
Why? Well, to answer that, I now get to go back and think about how wonderful Belle was, the real Belle, the original Belle, and see where the Live Action missed the mark.
Tumblr media
The first thing I remember feeling really rankled about was this: The original Belle was happy during “Be Our Guest” and dancing. Emma Watson looked like she was smiling patiently and quirking a sassy eyebrow for the sake of humoring a gang of silly children and wanted to get out of there.
Tumblr media
Well, why was the original Belle dancing and smiling, when she was imprisoned and objects were coming to life and dancing?
Because Belle likes enchantment. She’s uniquely ready to enjoy an enchanted castle—because she loves fairy tales. We already saw her enjoying a book about a disguised Prince. She’s not eager to leave the dinner and show to run off and find a way to escape—because she never wanted to escape. She gave her word that she’d stay in the castle and sacrifice her dreams for her father’s sake.
Tumblr media
And when a girl who’s been reading about daring sword fights and true love gives her word, like all the honorable knights and heroes she’s been reading about, she keeps it. And she makes the most of the adventure she’s currently in.
But maybe I never would have thought about how great and subtle and perfect that is if Emma Watson hadn’t totally messed it up.

Beauty and the beast but the people who are normally the good guys are evil
heheheheheheee I actually have a playlist called “evil batb” I listen to when I am ready to be wicked and commit crimes
Agatha cursed Adam at the last moment not as a sort of justice from hell measure but because he was about to crush her windpipe. sometimes self defense has to be a spell you set with your own blood. she crumples to the floor, dead, as Adam grows bones and claws and nails and teeth—and teeth—and teeth—and teeth….
In this timeline, a girl who might have just once been a dreaming bookworm has gone mad with loneliness, her heart a husk of what it was. she had a mother once, who died. she had a father once, who lived, staring at nothing, his fingers tinkering with gears that never fit. the magic and adventure never came. and when she hears there's a monster in the woods, she thinks I can turn my loneliness to some good measure. I'll go and kill the beast. Maybe then someone here in this village will take me as I am, if I finally have blood on my hands.
why was Adam trying to kill Agathe? because he doesn't trust magic, never has. What good is magic if the people you love can die and they do nothing to stop it? Agathe could have kept his mother from dying. Agathe could have stopped his father, any chance she had. but loneliness and anger creates more loneliness and anger, and in his desire to kill the last magic thing in the forest he becomes it, himself, roaring through the hallways and filling the rooms with a shaggy, aching rage.
Belle shows up and these two souls who don't have one good thing to say about the rest of the world start trying to kill each other—Adam because he has nothing left to be but a beast; Belle because she has nothing left to be but a slayer.
the staff are evil too!! oh my god they’re all so bad! but they’re bad in like, the campy tim curry ooo I’m evil because I wear leather kind of way. they’re bad like muppets. plumette throws knives lumiere wears thigh-highs cogsworth plots and schemes on like, how to set the table with purple napkins instead of white. in a previous life mrs. potts was a master assassin. they're all so busy dancing to lady gaga and being gay they never get around to actually committing any crimes.
what’s Gaston doing here? Gaston is simply a Man of the People! He’s been put down Too Long! he is in love with Belle and entirely unknowing that she’s got a heart made of holes. he's big into examining himself from a "safe and healthy perspective" and discussing every aspect of his personality in therapy but hasn't actually noticed that Belle is lonely or, uhh, not here anymore because she went to kill the monster in the woods and that was five weeks ago.
as naturally happens when two angry toxic people with precisely the same cocktail of loneliness meet, Adam and Belle segue quickly from trying to kill each other to, oopsie, relating over their shared griefs and maybe actually finding solace in each other. Are they in a healthy relationship? Absolutely not! Oh my god nobody go near them! They're surrounded by evil gay furniture why would you even want to! But they are what the other one needs, in this broken and fragile state, and I don't think anyone should fault them for holding onto each other, if it's the only life raft they have, as they patch their broken pieces in the only ways they know how. No one wants to be wicked. Some just have shadows that grow longer, and need a little sun to light the way.
So maybe they're damned. It's not a bad thing to be damned together.

Disney could've taken a step further and had Belle create the Empire Waist Dress.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
- Satisfies Emma's request to not wear a corset; with the type of silhouette one isn't required
- Enhances the animated movie's allegorical subtext for the French Revolution/End of Monarchy
- Signifies a new age which also is an allegory to new leadership in France irl
- Enhances the girl power message: Empire Dresses were said to be a symbol of freedom from strict, confined silhouettes
- Demonstrates Belle's inventive side & fits relaxed calm nature;
- also allegory to real life as Empire Dresses signified more relaxation after years of conflict
- Dress signified disconnecting from the overconsumption of the Rococo era
- Gives the movie dress a distinct motif from original (Rococo vs. Revolution)
- still aligns with inanimate objects theming as Empire Waist take cues from from ancient architecture (pillars)
- FITS THEME OF REBELLION! FASHION AS POLITICAL STATEMENT!!
- Includes the lack of gloves & layered fabric without looking like a stack of sliced American
- Satisfies the historian in me

You've got to love how the live-action Disney Beauty and the Beast acknowledged just about every single nitpick under the sun that had been made about the original animated film - Why don't the villagers know about the castle? How far away is the castle from the village? How old was the prince when he was cursed? How many days have passed inside and outside the castle? Was the Enchantress justified in casting the curse? - and so on and so forth,
but while they did shoot the scene, they ultimately drew the line at including the nitpick about 'Wait, did one of the servants get turned into a toilet???'

Just a little doodle, but I think I love him more than what is deemed healthy. Should I make him body?
