After the movie Cat felt there were too many holes in the story. For starters, the witch gave the Beast only until he was 21 to change his ways. That's a very young age to learn lessons by! And the castle had been enchanted for 10 years, meaning the poor Beast was cursed when he was only 11 years old! Who isn't a big brat at 11? Who was the real beast in this story? And why was the boy beast all alone in this giant castle when he was so little? She had more holes she noted during the movie, but couldn't remember afterwards. Another issue I had was that they never explained the magic mirror in his possession.
Even in 3D the movie was still beautiful and the songs were still great and I just have no idea why Disney has gone in the opposite direction with their movies.
Now I will start watching the Beauty and the Beast TV show that is streaming on Netflix. It came out when I was little and I enjoyed it. I expect it is really horrible (in a wonderful way) now.
After the movie, since we were in the area, we decided to give Steak 'n Shake another chance. This time we skipped the burgers and just went for chili and fries. The chili was just fine, but the fries were still not quite right. At least this time we got to sit down, which was pretty miraculous because it was quite busy. I'll probably return again for chili. Such good chili...

Were all those plot holes in the original movie? Some how all that blew right past me when I was little. Maddie and I watched that movie EVERY DAY one summer to prove to my mom we wouldn't get sick of movies we bought on VHS. We won!
Tale as old as time...
I don't know that it matters if there are small holes in fairy tales. As long as they aren't showing too bad!
It was the original movie, just made 3D somehow. World of wonders!
The plot holes didn't ruin the story at all, they just made you say "But..."
The mirror! They clearly wrote that one in at the last minute! Oh, crap - we have to have way to prove the beast is real - and we can't cut off a toe, its a kid's movie!
I think they need to make music more important in kid's movies again. Thats always the part that you remember best. I
I'll have to read the real story and see if the mirror fits in somewhere.
