Ron Perlman and Linda Hamilton - Beauty and the Beast (1987)

[zoeloveconvers99]

This is out of fun and personal ideas and i watched more versions but I was tired to find them all

[iolaussharpe-24]

Am I just a delusional shipper or does this feel like it should have been a thing?

Spoilers for Gargoyles (1972) ahead.

"Go on, your voice pleases me."

"'The sin was not my own, but forced upon me by the incubus; who overnight did slip into my bedchamber and taunt and seduce me with demon's promises until I was as if on fire. He was of uncommon height and finely built. A devil's face of frightful beauty that did put me in a spell. I had no will of my own, but did let the incubus do his will until I was driven mad.'"

Those are actual lines out of the movie. I didn't paraphrase. At all. I played the scene where she was reading out of the book, and typed every word she said. This is a movie about demons who "sometimes take human women" who are trying to conquer the world. Also, in this movie, the gargoyles with wings are the breeders. This one says as much. He was basically the leader. His reaction to being told that he's lost is literally, "Not as long as there are two winged breeders."

Also, the way the gargoyle acts when he first sees Diana just SCREAMS "shipping fuel". If this were written in the modern day, they would have done it. You can't convince me otherwise. You know why I say that?

BECAUSE THE 90s DID IT!!!

I don't care that these two stories have nothing to do with one another. This is a really good comparison. And, even if it wasn't, I have plenty of fuel for this fire. (I don't even need my usual go-to of vampire movies to prove this point.)

Diana and The Gargoyle fit into two categories that I love and frequently ship. Hero/Villain (though I guess this is more damsel/villain) and Human/Monster. I'm going to give examples from both categories that I will die shipping. (They overlap quite a bit, actually.)

Jareth the Goblin King x Sarah Williams

Katara x Prince Zuko

Rey x Kylo Ren/Ben Solo

Vlad Dracula x Mina Murray/Mina Harker

Erik x Christine Daaé

Batman/Bruce Wayne x Catwoman/Selina Kyle

Elisa Esposito x The Amphibian Man

Catherine Chandler x Vincent

So, with all that context in mind,

DOES THIS REALLY LOOK LIKE THAT MUCH OF A STRETCH?!?!

AAAH I'M SO EXCITED I LOVE HOW GOOD THIS COMM OF MY CHARS CAME OUT! *_* Drawn by the mega talented verodoodles!

These are my characters Eleonor and Leojoel, from a story I'm planning called "Eleonor and the Everskippers of the Beyondmore"! They're kinda inspired by the version of Beauty and the Beast starring Linda Hamilton and Ron Perlman, so I asked the artist to draw them in a pose similar to a picture of the characters that inspired them:

So super stoked to have a pic of these two posed so romantically, it came out so gorgeous, TYSM! X3

This Green costume with golden on is worn on uknown actor as Beauty brother in Beauty and the Beast (1987) and later worn on Lysette Anthony as Princess Gilda in The Emperor's New Clothes (1987)

[amplifyme]

Rick Baker deserved an Emmy for designing this face. Absolutely seamless make-up. Enlarge this and see what I mean. You can't tell where Perlman ends and Vincent begins. But those eyes. No mistaking those baby blues.

Breaking Away With The Beast of Both Worlds: The original '80s "Beauty & The Beast" TV series has been on my mind more than a bit lately. It's an election year, so a certain segment of the press is naturally drumming up a late '80s Fear City-inspired panic (the show's setting, the female lead suffering a frightful Central Park Jogger-like attack) about the lawless Big Apple to portray it as if it was "The Warriors," "The New York Ripper," or "Escape From New York." The city's had multiple cases of ill-advised and even fatal cases of subway surfing over the past two years. The Beastman Vincent, in one of the series's best conceits, would ride atop the sideway like he was bodysurfing to valiantly come to the aid of the imperiled heroine. I can see how the face of homelessness has changed on the streets due to the income gap and housing shortages, so much so that the World Below as depicted on the show -- I recall news reports back when it first aired covering the Mole People who had retreated into the city's netherworld beneath the concrete as evidence of failed big city governance -- as a subterranean haven for society's embittered and beleaguered dropouts is seeming evermore plausible.

Beauty and the Beast was a TV series starring Linda Hamilton and Ron Perlman in the 1980's. George R.R. Martin was one of the writers and producers. It's also strange. This will be my last video for a long time as I'll be giving birth in three weeks.

[jollyhaunt]

how is it that we get them in the same series but different episodes TWICE

[randomfoggytiger]

TXF interview with a BATB mention:

When Gillian Anderson became unexpectedly pregnant, supervising producer Howard Gordon thought he was jinxed. He had produced the earlier hit Beauty and The Beast. Its star Linda Hamilton became pregnant, and the show died.

The Beauty and the Beast

[adairctedgibbgirl]

SHOUTOUT

to each and everyone who has a very special interest/hobby/blorbo which barely or even noone else shares and who does not have anybody to talk about it.

You are highly interested in a game or movie or person others would joke about? You are a fan of a music group or singer your friends don't even know, let alone are interested in?

Maybe you have a book you would love to ramble about to your friends but noone really cares?

They don't know what they are missing!

You, all of you, are valid. I feel you. Your interests and hobbies are precious. Don't let anybody make you think they're useless or dumb. Be it a movie from the 1960ies, an old pc game, a tv-series or a book from the 19th century.

All your interests are valid. Never forget this.

I am hugging all of you!!!

PLEASE dear people, please REBLOG for everyone to know!

[loddyjean]

One hug from her can tame the beast
