  • A beautiful tribute to Howard Ashman, and one of the saddest things ever. The choice to use the rough animation of the last rose petal in Beauty and the Beast is beautiful and gets me Every. Damn. Time.

    Imagine if Howard Ashman is still alive and well today, churning out more and more successful musicals, movies, plays, tv shows, episodes and more, that would be better. If he was also an artist, animator and poster designer, he would be very impressed with what he has done. Imagine what will it be like if Howard Ashman is also more prolific and prominent in Anime as well. If he did work on Digimon and Pokemon, I would watch these two shows and never ever get tired.

    I listened to the crys of Howard Ashman but he's in a better place with a person who healed the blind and healed the sick but I like his songwriting when he and Alan wrote Little Shop all the way to Beauty and the beast but when I saw that last petal dropped for the last time that means Howard is dead but when God hoisted him up from his grave to take him to heaven that music means Howard is up in a better place but he left our life's but he did not left our hearts. So Howard when you meet with Walt Disney upstairs to see what you did at the studio he would be pleased of what you have done and also you might meet your heroes Robert B. Sherman who is also with Walt but we are all sad that your gone but we Thank you for taking a chance to make Disney great again. RIP Howard Ashman. 1936-1991
