Well not being Killed is a good Thing, you should really be Gretful for that. Anone can ave yoy from WOes,but the True test f coruage is saving someone from yourself.
It's kinda sad actually. But yeah, it's kinda funny how terrible he is as a father. He knows Beauty may be dead, or is suffering terribly in her captivity as Beast's sex slave. Yet, Old Man is just sitting in his home, having a nice cup of tea and doesn't seem to have any concerns at all in the world. xD
Frizzurd His ways of making Beauty take his place, by giving her feelings of guilt, are soooo casual: "Now I know I made the right decision by letting him kill me instead of you." - Old Man "Cherish it, my dear, for it will cost me my life." - Old Man
Disney version - Beast lets Belle go to her sick father, with no expectation that she will return, because he now cares for someone enough to make personal sacrifices for them, and is content to remain a beast forever if it means letting Belle do something that is important to her. Golden Films version - "COME BACK IN EXACTLY ONE WEEK OR I WILL DIE!!!"
Well, to be a bit fair to this version, the original fairytale had the 'dying of loneliness' factor in it as well. But I agree with you; Disney did it better XD
+The Anime Obsessor Yeah, if I remember correctly the beast wad dying of a broken heart because he thought he'd been abandoned aftet she didn't return when she said she would. Which is stupid enough, it didn't need any help from the movie to make it stupider but... here we arw xD
"Don't kill a girl and give her a few dresses and you must be Prince Charming." You know, a lot of people say that the Disney version is about Stockholm Syndrome, but this one actually hits all the right notes for that much better.
Seeing this version completely snapped me out of my cynical attitude about the Disney version and made me realize that interpretation is a major stretch.
In the disney one, bell is as stubborn as him and HE has to change if he wants her to feel anything but hatred for him. So he cleans up his act, treats her like a guest, and sets her free. Stolkhome is regardless of yiur captor's behaviors habing feelings for them.
MegaFriendlyCreeper I was actually thinking this during that scene - dude you survived this long without her I'm sure you can do it for another week or so!
If i remember the original story, the roses in the bushes dictate how long the beast lives so the dad plucking the rose effectively killed the beast a little, hence the beast being a lil peeved. The scene in the greenhouse with her cutting roses tho...idk.
Yeah that's true of other versions but isn't mentioned as being part of how it worked in this particular cartoon so he was just a dick about his rose bush BY THE STABLES! Greenhouse ones, yeah destroy them all, who cares?
I think it was the crappily made Bevanfield Films version of Beauty and the Beast that made use of the roses being part of the beast's lifespan, and plucking one of the roses reduced his life partially. But yes, not all versions mention this. As for the roses in the greenhouse, my only assumption is that they're just regular garden roses, not enchanted ones. And I assume taking ANYTHING from a royal/noble estate would easily end in being executed. So basically, the old father stole from the royal garden and would have been killed for committing theft. But regarding Clara and Beauty maintaining and trimming the garden, that's a different story.
TatsuraJ The Beavanfield Films version always sorta amused me how often they like concealing the Beast's 'area' most of the time as if he's packing a lot down there.
Whatsdogpee I've actually only seen one version where it's related to his lifeforce, all the others ones just have him throwing a tantrum because he loves roses so much. But I did see one version where the father was passing and saw the beautiful garden so just went in and picked a rose.
Whatsdogpee Why would the fine folks at Goodtimes remember that? They had only a year to read the story of Beauty and the Beast to fully understand it while they were putting this thing together.
I honestly wish we had more of Clara in this movie. She seemed to be somehow aware of how terrible the movie she was in was. Also, this is probably going to sound weird but I for some reason Beauty reminded me of an animated version of Paris Hilton with her blonde hair, generically pretty appearance, wonky eye and blank state. Maybe she got reincarnated into this somehow after she died in the house of wax?
I always love it when you can just tell that one of the characters in a movie _knows_ they’re in a shitty movie. Though even Phelous himself acting that way wasn’t enough to get me through the entirety of To Boldly Flee. I tried. I failed.
I know Phelous describes and portrays Beauty as an airhead in this, and I don't disagree (especially with those "always high" eyes), but after I saw this one myself I more interpreted her as a gold digger. Think about it. She is unselfish at the beginning of the movie but it's because the family HAS money. She's won over easily by the Beast and assumes he must be a good person after getting to live in a fancy castle and getting dresses. Near the end when visiting her family she makes a point that she has "riches beyond measure. Beautiful gowns and perfumes" as she continues to point out she's refusing to marry Beast and only sees him as a friend. Then she says she WILL marry him as he's dying, likely in the attempt to keep him alive so she can keep living in luxury. Phelous may have hilariously made Old Man into a sleazy greedy crook that will sell his daughter off for profit and scam his family, but the movie itself makes it rather blatant that Beauty got more from her father than his intelligence!
Wait what if this was a scheme cocked up by beauty and her father…… so when he goes to take beauty to the beast he’s going okay beauty here’s the plan! This is what I named you for. Maybe her being an airhead was all an act for a devious mastermind. Maybe her sister where in on the plan why they asked her to stay.
@@ingridsuperfreak Also, It's not like Belle WANTED to be there. I mean, she was in a nice castle with talking objects as friends, cool clothes, and potentially good food, but she was homesick. When the beast yelled at her, she wouldn't take that and left. The only reason she came back was because he saved her life, and she knew she couldn't leave him to die; she could've, but she didn't.
The problems with this take are that she didn't take are that she never took advantage of her family's wealth. From the pauper clothing to only wanting a rose, that was made clear early. Secondly, she has no reason to think that telling Beast that would save him. Third, if he died, she could have everything anyway, castle and all.
Was anybody else expecting Brad Jones (Cinema Snob) to perk up when Beast goes "Woah woah, this isn't the Beauty and the Beast Porno, woman!"? "My Snob senses are tingling".
Honestly that just makes his lack of pants before way more disturbing when you think about it. If you're implying he has visible genitals all the time, then why are you only giving him a shirt?
The original novel/fairytale by Madame de Villeneuve (not the abridged crap by Madame de Beaumont) was far more interesting. In the novel, the Beast is genuinely a nice character, and the whole “you stole my rose, you must die” is explained, in the novel there were two fairies, one cursed the Beast, and the other watches over him. It was the guardian fairy herself who ordered the Beast to threaten the merchant as it was part of her cunning plan to fulfil her promise to his mother that she would ensure that the curse would be broken, as it was part of the curse’s conditions that the maiden who could break the spell had to come to the Beast under the initial impression that he was going to kill her (yeah evil fairy really was a c*nt); and the Beast admits that he (obviously) didn’t wish harm upon the merchant, and felt guilty about having had to have threatened him. The original novel mentions why the Beast was cursed: when he turned fifteen, the evil fairy wanted to marry the prince, but he politely turned her down, so she tried to get the Queen to force her son to marry the fairy, but she too refused to allow the fairy to marry the prince and unintentionally insulted the fairy, so the fairy responded by taking all of her rage out on the prince, who was the innocent party in this. We also learn that Beauty/Belle is actually half fairy herself.
You sure that's the original? Sounds like someone trying to expand and rewrite a story to justify the actions of their faves and clumsily address plot holes. In the first place, why would she have to believe she was going to die? Narratively, it has no value, the only reason is to trick the reader.
I will die of loneliness. . .but Clara lives there too! You could possibly lose the will to live with extended periods of being alone, but he's got company. I know you can be lonely in a crowded room but this movie doesn't execute his loneliness very well. It felt like she was there for only a few days, not months like Disney's version had.
I still can't get over how light-headed Beauty is in this version. She refuses to believe that the beast is evil, yet he wanted to kill her because her father picked one of his flowers until he thought "Nah, she is hot enough to be my wife". Her fate would probably have been different if she was fat and not so attractive. And did the beast ever have a personality development in this version... like... in the Disney one?
The cause of the Beast’s death in the animated Disney movie: was literally stabbed in the back. The cause of the Beast’s death in the live action Disney movie: was shot in the back multiple times. The cause of the Beast’s death in this movie: got really lonely because Beauty stayed one day longer in the week long visit to her family. I can see why Disney wisely decided to change the cause of the Beast’s death in their adaptations.
Yes, sadly, older works of fiction (e.g., fairytales, myths) tend to have characters that lack psychological dimension and depth. At least when "Disney-fication" happens, they are trying to round/flesh out the characters for the modern, post-Freudian aesthetic sensibility.
Often because older fairy tales were a contemporary commentary or satire of their day. Beauty and the Beast was actually pro-Arranged Marriage lierature disguised as a fairy tale. Written by a woman for a magazine no less.
If I remember correctly beauty and the beast was a parody of arranged marriages or some sort of critism of it but then it turned into pro arranged marriage propaganda. I mean we’ve seen it happen in the modern day having creators on Twitter saying that not the message.
Love these. Feel Phelous is on his best when he does crummy animated stuff. Lends itself so well to visual gags, self-inserted voice acting and the like. Plus, unlike a movie with a buncha teens partying, getting killed. You get these amazing moments like with the dad here, diamonds (my god) and Captain 'Tackleton' & Mr.Hyde comitting murder in what is supposed to be children's entertainment.)
I would really hate to admit it, but this version is pretty close to the original French tale. The differences are Clara and the evil fairy being her sister. There was no Clara equivalent in the original, and she didn't make them rule forever. Also, the bitchy sisters were turned into statues for all their snobbery and whining. In fact, they were worse in the original. Oh, and they wanted Beauty to stay out of jealousy. They were married to a couple of jerks, and they hated the fact that Beauty was happy, with a large castle and a beast that acted subservient to her, to the point where he would leave the room if Beauty asked him to. He worried that she didn't want to see him because he was, in his words, just an ugly beast. But he was kind from the start, and it was made clear that she was queen of the castle from the moment she set foot in the place. Ok, yeah, I'm a big fan of the original tale, in part due to Beauty having power during a time in France (the 1700s) when women had next to no rights.
It was awkward to me to see this scene , at least the Dinsey Beast had a cape and Belle wasn't too close to him like this Beauty . This Beast needed pants
I just can't get over how the voice Phelous gives the beast reminds me of Bowser from Super Mario Sunshine (which is pretty fitting, since he's half goomba and all...)
Well, in the original tale the Beast did start to die of loneliness. -.o Originally it was a witch that cursed the prince to become a beast and he had to convince a woman to marry him or else he'd stay a beast and possibly die. The original lesson from the tale was less about the Beast learning anything and more about Belle being happy to marry wealth rather than simply love...or something to that effect.
fatalrob0t It was a "personality and security is more important than good looks" message, and in the early versions I've seen/read of the story... Beauty had a kind heart, but she was shallow as all hell. She was still living with her doting father because she turned away all suitors because of some physical flaw, it was a story more of her coming to find an ugly but good man lovable after her father stole from him to please her with a gift.
4:07 This is old news, but I still want to bring it up; WOW, I honestly thought this was an edit. But no, this is straight up how the conversation goes; not even a "who are you?" from Beauty, just immediately "And you're gonna tell me what I want to hear, right?" Seriously, its so sudden and jarring, that it feels like Beauty knew for a FACT that a fairy was gonna pop up right at that moment.
For what its worth, dying of loneliness due to letting your kidnapping victim go is basically how the novel of Phantom of the Opera ends. Love all of your animated movie reviews!
Clara sounds like Daffy Duck. Or someone imitating Daffy. Either way, I want a Looney Tunes version of this where Daffy is the castle caretaker. Bugs can be Beauty.
Doesn't mater how many times I watch this, Clara in a band and Beast refusing to take out the trash because he'll die of loneliness still makes me crack up XD
In the 1946 French film at least they managed to make the Beast's near death more fancy by having the Beast explain to Belle "I would die of heartbreak if I let you go... and you'd take advantage of that to run away from me and never return!" Definitely sounds better than "I will die of loneliness".
To be fair, Clara is possibly based on the good fairy from the original story, the one who tells Beauty to see beyond appearances in her dreams (which the movie lampshades by having Beauty assuming the Evil Fairy to tell her this). She also was the Evil Fairy's sister. Then again, if we are going for adaptational purity, they'd also have to point out that Beauty's dead mother was also their sister, which means the Beast marries his ex-girlfriend's niece. The strange thing is that this may actually be based on Don Bluth's aborted version of the story. The whole subplot with the Evil Fairy taunting Beauty in her dreams was actually going to be in that film, too.
I didn't realise how great your show is I'd seen you on "to boldly flee" and the chucky nostalgia critic cross over, and really loved your performances, but didn't realise you had this show, which im now very very addicted to! Cheers bro! ;-) x
Phelan Porteous If I find one, I'm sending it your way! Just review it as a Bootleg Zones thing... What? The movie is pretty much a bootleg already, y'know? :P
I remember seeing this version of _Beauty & the Beast_ a few years ago when I worked in a video store. I spent most of the second half thinking, "Where the hell was Clara when the old man stayed in the castle?" Can you guess where somebody else started working on the story?
MforMovesets someone should make a version of this Beauty and the Beast where everything was the except Clara’s lines are replaced with Frieza’s lines. I will love it even more if they are Frieza’s lines from the Team Four Star version of the character.
Mitch Fletcher well now I know why her voice sounded so familiar. Now I must headcanon that Clara is really Wuya and that Jack Spicer is the descendant of Airhead Beauty and Goomba Beast. It is spoken and now canon. Also I love Xiaolin Showdown, I watched it a lot when it was on TV.
The animation is stupid and the plot is off, but beauty and beast's voice actors do a nice job. I wish those two could do the story over in improved circumstances.
Daran Norris was defiantly in Golden Films Beauty and the Beast as one of the annoying ghosts, I know that since the brunett ghost sounds identical to Timmy Turner`s Dad.
Actually, it is possible for humans to die of a broken heart. When under a deep emotional trauma, heart strings can sometimes break and the heart will loose form, leading to blood not being able to pump through your system effectively and eventually causes death. Broken Heart Syndrome. ....I'm not sure about loneliness though so I think they messed up what they meant.
Sapphire: Ruby did you take the trash out today? Ruby: I'm afraid not, Sapphire. By the time I reach the drive way, I'll die.... Of Loneliness. Sapphire: If you can't be bothered just say so! I just thought of that.
Is it just me or does anyone else think that at the part when Beast asks to marry her, she starts to have a seizure? Oh...and "props" to Clara, the one-woman band! ROTFLMFAO!!
Old Man: Nathan! I'm surprised at you! How could you have the audacity to pursue dear Beauty in doing such an unforgiving endeavor! Beauty, you have my blessing to marry Mr Beast. And if ever he dies of Lonely Wiener Syndrome, I, oh I mean we could keep his spirit alive by settling his will! 🏰💰💰💰💰💰💰💰
I just realised this review is TECHNICALLY the last time Phelous ‘dies’ for a spilt second just like Mac and me 😂 And I’m COMPELLED to track down this movie 😂
Oh my god, the relationship between Beauty and the Beast in this movie isn't just as bad, it's mentally abusive. She's forced to come to the castle to save her father's life, he decides to spare her life instead of killing her but still won't let her leave, he gaslights her by constantly commenting on how much of a beast he is in behavior and appearance and how she doesn't love him and is scared of him, and after proclaiming he wouldn't refuse her anything, he suddenly backpedals when she asks to visit her father (not leave forever, just visit) and moans about how he'll die if she leaves him for too long, emphasizing that even a DAY late is too much. In his case, it's literal, but abusers often threaten self-harm when their victims try to leave in order to keep them longer.
Belle in Disney's version: "Thanks, Beast, for saving me from the wolves."
Belle in this version: "Thanks, Beast, for not killing me."
WAT?!
Well not being Killed is a good Thing, you should really be Gretful for that. Anone can ave yoy from WOes,but the True test f coruage is saving someone from yourself.

They should make a Hallmark card for that.
In most versions, Beauty's father is ill and that's why Beauty wants to go home. Gotta love how Old Man is doing just fine without her.
You also gotta love how Old Man is a straight rip-off of Ben Franklin from "Ben & Me".

Give it up for Beauty, for best Bella Swan impersonator.
"I'm really scary! Do I dazzle you?"
I will die of loneliness. . .but Clara lives there too!
You could possibly lose the will to live with extended periods of being alone, but he's got company. I know you can be lonely in a crowded room but this movie doesn't execute his loneliness very well. It felt like she was there for only a few days, not months like Disney's version had.
To me, it felt like she was only there for 24 hours.
Also, beast losing his humanity seems like a far more interesting threat than dying of loneliness.
Phelous should make videos more often, or I'll die... of loneliness!
n
I still can't get over how light-headed Beauty is in this version. She refuses to believe that the beast is evil, yet he wanted to kill her because her father picked one of his flowers until he thought "Nah, she is hot enough to be my wife". Her fate would probably have been different if she was fat and not so attractive. And did the beast ever have a personality development in this version... like... in the Disney one?
I wished the movie was about her running away from there, realizing he is actually awful and evil, just wanting her to break his spell
Huh, nice twist.
Interesting fact: Susan Silo was also the voice of Wuya from Xiaolin Showdown.
Clara sounds like the grandma from Hey Arnold.
Oh!
The cause of the Beast’s death in the animated Disney movie: was literally stabbed in the back.
The cause of the Beast’s death in the live action Disney movie: was shot in the back multiple times.
The cause of the Beast’s death in this movie: got really lonely because Beauty stayed one day longer in the week long visit to her family.
I can see why Disney wisely decided to change the cause of the Beast’s death in their adaptations.
I've just discovered rain is wet!!! It's completely useless now... ;_;
A bucket. Fill it up with rain, throw it in the garbage.
Letty Lunasical HYEEEEEEEEEEE
The bucket is wet. It’s completely useless now...
Anyone else think his Beauty voice sounds like Homer pretending to be Marge?
You're right. It sounds more like Homer than his Homer voice.
3:50 those aren’t dresses for a giant, they’re the Beasts’s dresses - Beauty just raided his closet
He’s fay 😂😂😂😂
17:21 that's offensive to planks, I mean look at plank from Ed, Edd, n Eddy
Plank soaked up a bunch of water. He’s completely useless now.
Yes, sadly, older works of fiction (e.g., fairytales, myths) tend to have characters that lack psychological dimension and depth. At least when "Disney-fication" happens, they are trying to round/flesh out the characters for the modern, post-Freudian aesthetic sensibility.
Often because older fairy tales were a contemporary commentary or satire of their day. Beauty and the Beast was actually pro-Arranged Marriage lierature disguised as a fairy tale. Written by a woman for a magazine no less.
If I remember correctly beauty and the beast was a parody of arranged marriages or some sort of critism of it but then it turned into pro arranged marriage propaganda.
I mean we’ve seen it happen in the modern day having creators on Twitter saying that not the message.
"I'm going to die of loneliness."
My new excuse lol
And what about not taking a shower , because you would be useless now 😁😁
Love these. Feel Phelous is on his best when he does crummy animated stuff. Lends itself so well to visual gags, self-inserted voice acting and the like.
Plus, unlike a movie with a buncha teens partying, getting killed. You get these amazing moments like with the dad here, diamonds (my god) and Captain 'Tackleton' & Mr.Hyde comitting murder in what is supposed to be children's entertainment.)
littleNorwegians Yeah, I like it when he mixes it up more often.
+littleNorwegians Yeah, these are my favorite of his movie reviews. The horror films tend to blur together.
I would really hate to admit it, but this version is pretty close to the original French tale. The differences are Clara and the evil fairy being her sister. There was no Clara equivalent in the original, and she didn't make them rule forever. Also, the bitchy sisters were turned into statues for all their snobbery and whining. In fact, they were worse in the original. Oh, and they wanted Beauty to stay out of jealousy. They were married to a couple of jerks, and they hated the fact that Beauty was happy, with a large castle and a beast that acted subservient to her, to the point where he would leave the room if Beauty asked him to. He worried that she didn't want to see him because he was, in his words, just an ugly beast. But he was kind from the start, and it was made clear that she was queen of the castle from the moment she set foot in the place. Ok, yeah, I'm a big fan of the original tale, in part due to Beauty having power during a time in France (the 1700s) when women had next to no rights.
adelina513 so what? It's still a terrible movie.
oz pardo Er, it was rather interesting to read, made me want to read the original...
There actually was a good fairy that looked after the beast once he was cursed.
Not even 10 seconds in, and I'm already dying of laughter.
+Nell Ross that's better than dying of loneliness.
That's better than being all wet and then being completely useless.
Ill die of DEATH!
@@TheLugiaSong I love all these replies, lol.
...why does the prince look like Eric from Little Mermaid???
BECAUSE PLAGIARISM!!!!!
AuroraKnux omg that's what I said:0
But Eric got all wet when his ship sank, so that prince is useless.
Because ripping off *one* Disney movie wasn't enough for them. They might've ripped off Cinderella as well, re: Clara.
lol, "Ah who gives a f**k, gonna go piss on those flowers!!!!!!!!"
7:20 This joke is a brilliant example of why I love your reviews Phelous. Who else would have thought about something so random but appropriate? LOL
3:11 I can`t believe they actually animated this shot,they were just asking the perverted internet to have a feel day with it....
Beauty and the Bestiality.
Field.
not sure the internet even existed yet when this was made.
Furries dream come true.
It was awkward to me to see this scene , at least the Dinsey Beast had a cape and Belle wasn't too close to him like this Beauty . This Beast needed pants
"If this movie does poorly then GoodTimes will surely perish."
"THEN LET IT DIE! :D"
"Whoa whoa whoa, this isn't the Beauty and the Beast prono, woman!!"
But Beast, wouldn't that be... BEASTIALITY?? 😀
To bring this up is only *feral*.
TOASTY
3:14
I just can't get over how the voice Phelous gives the beast reminds me of Bowser from Super Mario Sunshine (which is pretty fitting, since he's half goomba and all...)
Well, in the original tale the Beast did start to die of loneliness. -.o Originally it was a witch that cursed the prince to become a beast and he had to convince a woman to marry him or else he'd stay a beast and possibly die. The original lesson from the tale was less about the Beast learning anything and more about Belle being happy to marry wealth rather than simply love...or something to that effect.
fatalrob0t It was a "personality and security is more important than good looks" message, and in the early versions I've seen/read of the story... Beauty had a kind heart, but she was shallow as all hell. She was still living with her doting father because she turned away all suitors because of some physical flaw, it was a story more of her coming to find an ugly but good man lovable after her father stole from him to please her with a gift.
Honestly, the original story is flat-out offensive if you think about it too hard. It's a good thing Disney updated the story like they did...
Makes sense. Some fairy tales had morals we'd consider terrible.
@@Dreigonix stories are products of their time.
+rorrim0
Indeed.
4:07 This is old news, but I still want to bring it up; WOW, I honestly thought this was an edit. But no, this is straight up how the conversation goes; not even a "who are you?" from Beauty, just immediately "And you're gonna tell me what I want to hear, right?"
Seriously, its so sudden and jarring, that it feels like Beauty knew for a FACT that a fairy was gonna pop up right at that moment.
I like how your voice for Beauty sounds like Shaggy if he was slowly and painfully dying crushed under a giant rock .
For what its worth, dying of loneliness due to letting your kidnapping victim go is basically how the novel of Phantom of the Opera ends. Love all of your animated movie reviews!
Why isn't the "They're completely useless now" line isn't a meme yet?
+negavenom Because it got wet. It's completely useless now...
+Saddam Hussein Hueeeeeeeeeeeee!!!!!!!!!!!!
Don’t worry it IS😎😜
Clara sounds like Daffy Duck. Or someone imitating Daffy. Either way, I want a Looney Tunes version of this where Daffy is the castle caretaker. Bugs can be Beauty.
*I'd* watch that.
Tasmanian Devil can be the beast 😂
Konnie The Hero And Elmer Fudd can be Beauty's father
Holy shit guys why aren't we funding this?
(snickers)
In the original book, the beast almost died because he stopped eating when Belle left.
The doll version of beauty has more personality than the animated one.
Doesn't mater how many times I watch this, Clara in a band and Beast refusing to take out the trash because he'll die of loneliness still makes me crack up XD
In the 1946 French film at least they managed to make the Beast's near death more fancy by having the Beast explain to Belle "I would die of heartbreak if I let you go... and you'd take advantage of that to run away from me and never return!"
Definitely sounds better than "I will die of loneliness".
To be fair, Clara is possibly based on the good fairy from the original story, the one who tells Beauty to see beyond appearances in her dreams (which the movie lampshades by having Beauty assuming the Evil Fairy to tell her this). She also was the Evil Fairy's sister. Then again, if we are going for adaptational purity, they'd also have to point out that Beauty's dead mother was also their sister, which means the Beast marries his ex-girlfriend's niece.
The strange thing is that this may actually be based on Don Bluth's aborted version of the story. The whole subplot with the Evil Fairy taunting Beauty in her dreams was actually going to be in that film, too.
Death by loneliness.. That has to be the most pathetic thing anybody could ever think up.
I didn't realise how great your show is I'd seen you on "to boldly flee" and the chucky nostalgia critic cross over, and really loved your performances, but didn't realise you had this show, which im now very very addicted to! Cheers bro! ;-) x
Christina Phillips Thanks! Glad you're enjoying it!
Phelan Porteous
Did anyone ever send you the doll? Just curious.
Brooke Brewer Haha no. No doll to haunt me luckily.
Phelan Porteous If I find one, I'm sending it your way! Just review it as a Bootleg Zones thing... What? The movie is pretty much a bootleg already, y'know? :P
+Christina Phillips Meh he hasn't done anything worthwhile since Mac & Me in 5 seconds.
I remember seeing this version of _Beauty & the Beast_ a few years ago when I worked in a video store. I spent most of the second half thinking, "Where the hell was Clara when the old man stayed in the castle?" Can you guess where somebody else started working on the story?
I just realize the granny kinda sounds like Frieza.
_"I DO KI ATTACKS IN A PINCH AS WELL, FILTHY SAIYAN WOMAN!"_
MforMovesets someone should make a version of this Beauty and the Beast where everything was the except Clara’s lines are replaced with Frieza’s lines. I will love it even more if they are Frieza’s lines from the Team Four Star version of the character.
MforMovesets Granted, she is played by Susan Silo. Or Wuya from Xiaolin Showdown.
Mitch Fletcher well now I know why her voice sounded so familiar. Now I must headcanon that Clara is really Wuya and that Jack Spicer is the descendant of Airhead Beauty and Goomba Beast. It is spoken and now canon. Also I love Xiaolin Showdown, I watched it a lot when it was on TV.
@@morganyoung3557 Hell, Susan Silo could've made a decent Frieza back in the 90s.
All the good producers of channelawesome.com have left! It's completely useless now.
TheDUDERulez1 Well, at least they tried!
+TheDUDERulez1 It's not weird!
Not really there's still Linkara and the Cinema Snob
Dont you mean Cinnamon Snob and Fat Grandma.
*Throws Channel Awesome in the trash*
7:54
I bet this is what goes through every dog's head when their owner goes out
Beauty and the Beast makes me respect Bowser a little more. It's only the same story.
Monster holding a blonde chick he's fallen for hostage... Yup, seems about right. Too bad no Italian dude with a bushy moustache shows up here though.
Your completly useless now
Am I the only one concerned that the transformed beast looks like her older brother?
0:59 up to "now let me leave, via the door"
AAAAAAAAAAAAAaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaasaaaaaaaa
Your face when he says I shall die from loneliness is priceless.
Truly this is a timeless classic. Thank you for showing us this, Phelous.
_Old man: Origins_ did not disappoint.
HEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!
Well now I'll tell my mom I'll "Die of loneliness," if she tells me I have to make my bed.
The animation is stupid and the plot is off, but beauty and beast's voice actors do a nice job. I wish those two could do the story over in improved circumstances.
"...Or is talking to you worse than no one at all?"
MOOD
Old man and Silver the headgehog would get along great:
"Sonic is all wet, it's no use now!"
I think I hurt myself laughing through this review.
10GaugeManiac Me too! ...I'm completely useless now...
Daran Norris was defiantly in Golden Films Beauty and the Beast as one of the annoying ghosts, I know that since the brunett ghost sounds identical to Timmy Turner`s Dad.
It is actually possible to die of loneliness.
IF YOU'RE AN ALPACA!!!
Aren't rabbits able to die the same way?
The Anime Obsessor
I don't know.
Or a hermit crab...ironic, considering their name.
Actually, it is possible for humans to die of a broken heart. When under a deep emotional trauma, heart strings can sometimes break and the heart will loose form, leading to blood not being able to pump through your system effectively and eventually causes death.
Broken Heart Syndrome.
....I'm not sure about loneliness though so I think they messed up what they meant.
Elephants can die of loneliness too ):
IMDB has since been updated with the right image & even lists OLD MAN as bring voiced by Jan Rabson!
"Can you take the trash out?"
"I'm afraid not, for on the journey to the end of the driveway, I'll _die!_ Of _loneliness!"_
xD
15:23 That's what I thought for the longest time: she fell in love with the beast, not a dorky Ken doll!
Don't You Mean You'll Go to Another Dimension of Loneliness? But Anyways, Too Bad it's Sunday She Would have Said Yes to Marrying You Tomorrow!
I thought the beast killed old man HEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE.
Old Man is the best character ever.
Idk....he was never a cow....so...
They were trying to go for that 'doe eyed innocence' expression with her eyes... They fucked up hard.
I don't like how the beast is literally my separation anxiety when my family leaves me home.😂😂😂yes I'm getting help.
im willing to bet beauty has the same voice actress as a bunch of goodtimes princesses
11:30. Does no one notice her eyes are crossed? XD
Well, derp.
I blame being on my phone for not noticing that. lol
Still better than the Disney live-action remake.
At least this is short.
And the actors are actually trying. And it has OLD MAN
I guess that means the live action version is officially soooooo useless *Does Rapsittie spaz* HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
I don't know what Phelous is complaining about. They focused on the most important character, Old Man.
no one reviews like Phelous
"then let him die!" is the new "then perish" i'm declaring it. i know i'm late but god damn is it funny.
Sapphire: Ruby did you take the trash out today?
Ruby: I'm afraid not, Sapphire. By the time I reach the drive way, I'll die.... Of Loneliness.
Sapphire: If you can't be bothered just say so!
I just thought of that.
To be far they can't stand being apart for more than ten minutes so it probably would result in one of them dying of loneliness.
I know, I just wanted to do that because I thought that.
Well, if there's anyone who can beat Lapis in terms of raw power, it's the Old Man.
"Lapis Lazuli is all wet! SHE'S COMPLETELY USELESS NOW!"
Is it just me or does anyone else think that at the part when Beast asks to marry her, she starts to have a seizure?
Oh...and "props" to Clara, the one-woman band! ROTFLMFAO!!
Old Man: Nathan! I'm surprised at you! How could you have the audacity to pursue dear Beauty in doing such an unforgiving endeavor! Beauty, you have my blessing to marry Mr Beast. And if ever he dies of Lonely Wiener Syndrome, I, oh I mean we could keep his spirit alive by settling his will!
🏰💰💰💰💰💰💰💰
Lmfao @ "Then let him die" bit.
I just realised this review is TECHNICALLY the last time Phelous ‘dies’ for a spilt second just like Mac and me 😂
And I’m COMPELLED to track down this movie 😂
And now I own this BEAUTY 😜
Omg, I laughed aloud so hard my sides were hurting! 😂 Your impressions are the best! More of these !!
Oh my god, the relationship between Beauty and the Beast in this movie isn't just as bad, it's mentally abusive. She's forced to come to the castle to save her father's life, he decides to spare her life instead of killing her but still won't let her leave, he gaslights her by constantly commenting on how much of a beast he is in behavior and appearance and how she doesn't love him and is scared of him, and after proclaiming he wouldn't refuse her anything, he suddenly backpedals when she asks to visit her father (not leave forever, just visit) and moans about how he'll die if she leaves him for too long, emphasizing that even a DAY late is too much. In his case, it's literal, but abusers often threaten self-harm when their victims try to leave in order to keep them longer.
This story is inherently problematic, even with the best versions; this version doesn't even try to fix anything.
