Me Gushing over Batb here we go:

These are little details and such that I’ve noticed some aren’t that hard to see, some are new and others are just me gushing... haha.

We gotta bring back the “changing the intro castle to be the one in the movie.” Because this is awesome, I remember being :000 in the theater. Also I love how the intro makes the town look RIGHT THERE when in the movie it was like a days journey or so. (Continuity error in the mob song.) also how the movie straight up starts IN the logo? Love.

The bit about the rose in the film (belle requesting it and Maurice getting it) is a reference to the book where she asks for that same thing. In the book the bimbette characters are actually her sisters.

The Bimbette’s (also called the village lasses) are named in this version two! This time Elise, Eliana and Eloise.

Notice Lumiere and Chapeau (coatrack/valet hes important people smh.) in the background of the opening song, you can notice others too etc. Also this is the first time I’ve noticed it’s all women dancing with the prince. Now the “special one”. Lyric makes sense.

Monsieur Jean (Potts) in general. He’s not subtle lmao.

I love the part in belle of the schoolboys going into the schoolhouse and the beat adjusts to their little half march then to belle jumping from stone to stone

negative points on a six book bookshop(even if people are illiterate- you have a dang school smh)

Stanley spotting!

, on the back of LeFou’s horse in the intro there’s a bow amungst other things. It is implied that they were maybe hunting? As the speak of the war in a past past tense that it wasn’t so recent that they are just returning

LUKE EVANS VOICE SINGING MORE HIM SINGING!!!!!! (It’s never gonna happen ladies smh)

from the amount of people in the square alone it should be booted up to a Town instead of a Village

Maurice is a sexy grandpa. I’m sorry he’s good looking for his age.

Gaston stepping in the puddle, you don’t see his face but you can just SENSE the internal rage screaming lmao

Ok so the detail on the castle while it’s cursed the massive baroque swirl like detail patterns overtaking the architecture like vines and breaking parts of it apart? Stunning , brillant, détail-

the haunted mansion style hands holding the launterns you just KNOW are going to be used later.

you hear the melody’s of the songs before they happen and through the movie, for example Cadenza playing be our guest when Maurice comes in or hearing a small bit of evermore but played up for the partial theme.

Belle using everything as a weapon

Stick from outside

The stool in her cell

The chamber pot from her cell

These fists.

Lefou Paying everyone during gaston. Still the best thing-

Stanley spotting!

I like how the tavern low key looks a little like the one in Disney world. At least over here

The 3 huge Barrels and the sign of “Gaston the hunter.” Proudly displayed over it. Wonder if Lefou got a beer named after him too

ok so when the petals fall more of the castle breaks off and everyone becomes less human, I never noticed a change in the beast before but if you look closely right before it transitions his brow bone becomes thicker and lower. Also Chapeau playing days in the sun on the Violin.

Garderobe and Candeza as objects(Wardrobe and Harpsichord respectably) match each other in their color scheme :). Also Candenza still has a mustache and Madame a chest, if you look the right way.

“after all miss this is France” *cuts food in half * that’s subtle lmao

Mrs.Potts kiss in be our guest is still terrifying.

OK SO IVE JUST NOTICED THIS - the beasts cloak if you look closely it’s not a cloak at all, it was the overcoat/Jacket from the opening scene, it’s so shredded and ruined you can barely tell but you can JUST make out the royal blue and the pattern in its tatters. Also a big win to belle who got him to wear clothes again as before she helps after the wolves I’m 99% sure he was just in the cloak not even breeches (A type of pants) so big win.

me: i am mature i am mature i am mature i am mature i am mature

Me seeing the beasts feet: Big boi toe beans. Big kitty.

Please end me.

The village is named Villeneuve

belle having such a thing for Paris or at least the windmill yet she left it when she was a baby baby??

Stanley sighting!

I also like how the Beast has hair (Well duh hes covered in it-) but i mean human like hair; you can notice his regular hair , it’s just slightly longer and a bit dreadlock like in nature from how tangled it is. It’s not as long as originally because in the scene getting ready for the ball they do cut it down a length.

you have Audra McDonald(Garderobe) and yet you don’t have her sing beauty and the beast? Smh

How expressive beasts eyes alone are my son I’m ;-;

Also hair goals? My dude I’m ;-;

Stanley spotting!

EVERMORE IS THE BEST SONG EVER I WILL STRAIGHT UP FIGHT EVERYONE IN THE ROOM.

Stanley sighting!

Stanley sighting!(I l I k e s t a n l e y)

I need more luke Evans singing, the mob song is another jam.

Tiny baby shovels?! And some other stuff? Wonder what it’s for?

Stanley in a dress spotting!

Adam is shot a total of 3 times.

“let’s have everyone die on screen this time!” I’m. Genuinely when I saw this movie in theaters for a solid moment I genuinely believed that was it- everyone dead (well objects) and adam dead dead. I was actually fooled and emotional.

Garderobe and Cadenza are dressed the same as that night

frou-frou has a little tuff for a moment

Chapeau’s hair, his legs for a moment

Cogsworth has Roman numerals as his bottons , a monocle and his mustache is uneven.

Lumire is in a golden outfit

Plumette has a feathery bottom to her dress and a Golden sort of paint paint pattern across her chest

Mrs. Potts and chip have the makeup on their face.

DETAILS I LOVE IT.

Also Ladies get yourself a Lumierè, get yourself someone who looks at you like that

Mrs. Potts first name is Beatrice

Cogsworth’s first name is henry.

We love everyone dancing. And Rip Henry hes fine just- his wife knows him now.

what’s that nod Mrs Potts and marice give each other for????

Stanley and LeFou sporting! My boys, he’s so much better for him then Gaston smh

This is not a detail but it is imparitve that you bare witness to Dabbing Lumierè.

[coralluminarywizard]

Vent, I know he won’t see this but I needed to write it down

Do i miss you? So much. Some days it feels like a stabbing pain in my chest to the point i cannot breath other days its manageable and feels like a light breeze, either way the thought of you lives within me. I know yours no longer here and i can’t fight your reasons and i understand why you needed to leave but non of the reasons feel good enough to use as an explanation to tell others why were no longer together. I crave your presence you always had a way making me feel like I was unstoppable when you were around it was addictive, I crave your silly jokes and you laughter and you constant rambling about cars just to see the passion on your face. 

You have taught me so much in our time together, things ill value for the rest of my life. However the one thing you never taught me was how to live without you? Its something I’m truly struggling with. I feel as if i am merely existing and that you were the passion in my life that kept me going. 

You brought me unbelievable amounts of happiness into my life and I can say that without a doubt, you were the best things that has ever happened to me and I will remember and cherish every memory I have of us for the entirety of my life; the millions of them every single one I will remember. The first time we kissed and how you started a fire inside of me with every touch. When you asked me to be your girlfriend; gosh that feeling is something I’ll never forget the way we could barley even kiss each other because we were smiling so much. The million of firsts we had together, and sadly i’ll also remember all our lasts. How the last time I saw you on christmas day, I was as drunk as a skunk I can still remember how loving and caring you were how you reacted when I gave you your present and how you needed to leave to go see family and you kissed me goodbye.. never did i think that thats kiss would mean goodbye forever but now I know what it means Ill cherish it, Ill cherish the feeling of your lips on mine, of your eyes staring into mine while you smile whole heartedly at me. It always blew my mind how you looking at me could somehow make my heart beat like crazy and feel like my entire body was being set on fire in the most glorious of ways while also making me feel so calm and safe and at home.  I will always remember the little things that meant the world to me, Ill remember how your voice sounded like when you told me “you look so pretty” or how incredible the words “I love you” came from your mouth. Ill never forget how much I treasured sleeping next to you and waking up to your face; somehow knowing you’d be there when I woke up and having you as the first thing I saw in the morning made my lazy butt a morning person as it meant I  got to spend more time with you. I’ll remember the evenings we did nothing but just laid in bed and spoke about anything and everything and how comfortable I was around you that we could talk about absolutely anything and still find it fascinating. Ill remember the evenings we went out to the cinema and although there was the arm rest between us we always ended up somehow cuddling in those chairs and moved as close to each other as possible, the nights we went out just doing nothing but with you around they felt like the most incredible evenings ever.

I constantly find myself looking at the thousands upon thousands of photos and videos I have of us and thinking how could something so beautiful and pure as our love turn so bad. But I guess we weren’t strong enough to with stand the pressure of falling truly in love at such a young age. I made some mistakes, some pretty huge horrible mistakes and for that I’m so sorry, theres nothing more I can do than apologies for that and for my toxic traits and I recognise that in part I was to blame. But so were you, you did some pretty horrible things too and honestly I forgive you.  At a young age were bound to mess up gosh how are you meant have a perfect relationship when you met when you were 15. There was bound to be some messy parts but what was important was how we dealt with each problem and that we faced it together. And we managed to do that for 4 glorious years sure there were ups and downs, some really low moments but the highs were honestly sky high and were able to make up for any of the low points. I still love you, I love you with my whole heart and soul absolutely unequivocally. Even while baring this pain and heartbreak I still admire you as a person, you are such a beautiful soul and you have so so much ahead of you and even though from now I’ll be watch from a distance, please know I still whole heartedly believe you. 

So i guess I just want to say I’m so sorry for everything, I’m sorry that I wasn’t enough to make you want to stay. I wish I could’ve been that person for you. I wish I couldve been the person who was there by your side through everything, the person you needed in your life but I guess all our talk about us being soulmates, our forever and future plans was pointless but I hold out hope that you’ll have everything you wish for one day even though I can  no longer be part of that I wish you all the happiness in the world. Seeing you happy was always the way to make me happiest so I think thats how my life is going to be. I always got teased for how I looked at you “you look at him like he’s your entire world” “you can so tell you’re so in love with him just by how you look at him” and it’s true you were and still are. I guess that’s because I look at you with such wonder. People always look at shooting stars with amazement and I guess that’s how I saw you as my shooting star, you were my wish, you made everything in my wildest dreams come true.

I have no desire to be with anyone else, as stupid as it sounds I found everything I could have ever wanted within you, sure we argued and said things but I think thats just one of the things that is going to happen when you fall in love at such a young age, its difficult to understand that depth of feelings in an entire life time let alone when your just 15 and with the past 4 years being probably the hardest years in life for development and character changing I guess it probably was the most difficult time to have those feelings  as well and even for me it was so so confusing and difficult to understand and I imagine it was the same for you I mean thats the reason this ended because you were confused and couldn’t understand your feelings with everything going on.

I’ve come to terms that you aren’t coming back and that my future will not have you as part of it. I will still miss you every single day, I will still think of you before I got to bed and you’ll still be my first though in the morning. I will still have dreams of what our future coulee been life if we were able to have fought this but I understand you not wanting to, it takes a big struggle to keep a relationship going when things in your life are hectic. I understand how difficult it must’ve been to love me. Im so sorry that my demons affected you. Im so sorry that I caused you any pain, I never ever ever wanted you to be hurt because of me. If I could take everything back I might, not because of me I would choose this heartbreak everyday of the year than erase all the memories we had together because it brings me such happiness to think of how happy we were once but id take it all back for you. So you could forget everything all the pain I caused you you’d probably be a lot happier. 

Although I wish we could fix this I wish we could still be how we were before we fucked everything up. I wish we could be together I honestly wish for nothing more than us to have the future we always talked about but I understand that you can’t give me that, I understand you don’t love me enough to put in the effort and to be honest I don’t blame you. I tried, I put every ounce of effort I had into keeping us going and it was to much I couldn’t do it for the both of us. Maybe one day you’ll realise what we had was once in a life time, and you’ll then be willing to put the effort in to making us work. But I’m not holding out hope, I’m not going to sit around waiting because I know you won’t you’ll get on with your life and I need to try. But know I’ll always have you in my heart and always be thinking about the what if. Maybe one day we’ll meet up once I have got back from traveling the world and you’re fully qualified and the spark will still be there and timing would be right then. I guess In the back of my mind I’m always hoping you’ll turn up at my door one night and tell me how much you miss me, how you regret your indecisiveness and you’ll beg for another chance, you’ll realise how incredible we could be if we both put in the effort and you would be willing to actually put that effort in consistently. But I know you and your mind is clearly made up on this. You don’t even miss me, you can live quite happily without me, I’m not on your mind, I’m not the person you think of when something great happens, I’m not the first person you want to reach out to when your upset. So I can’t let you take over my world, although you have taken over my mind and have created quite a home for yourself there over these years I won’t let it affect how I live my life. I’ll continue pretending like I’m fine and one day maybe I will be.

So I guess what’s left to say is take this as a thank you. Thank you for absolutely everything you have done for me. Thank you for being the light in my life. Thank you for being there for me through some of the darkest days of my life. Thank you for sticking by me through these past four years. Thank you for just being you and showing me that I’m capable of that amount of love. Thank you for understanding me and showing me what its like to be loved and even though this has ended sourly please know you’ll always be the love of my life. I will always admire the courage you’ve taught me to have. 

 I’ll forever treasure you, and you will always be my fondest memories. I promise to never ever forget you and even though you may not continue to, I’ll forever love you as i promised you all those years ago.

I pinky promise.

I still don’t think your ready for it, but here’s my Batb Cruise show review:

Yes you read the title completely right, I was made aware of this a day or two ago but apparently one of the Disney Cruises is doing/did beauty and the beast the musical but based upon the live action movie. So naturally a massive fan of the live action I was both shocked and wildly confused, lucky for me I found a video on the entire performance(likely taken from a cruise tv.) from what I skimmed over it looks like instead of full body suits to look like they are it’s going to be regular (human outfits.) and then puppets, so I am Really really interested to see how this goes.

The timing is a little off we skip the prologue (Aria etc.) and start straight in How does a moment last forever... are they placing Belle after it? It was before in the movie. Wait oh my god he’s also narrator- it is the prologue! Pulled a sneaky one on ya.

•Adams dramatic sassy hand movements are my entire life (no dance just this art right here.)

•The enchantress looks straight outa Atlantis but I LOVE the effects used omllll

• MARIE THE BAGUETTES.

•who needs her when you’ve got us (LE DUO OMG- it’s the thing.)

•from what I’m seeing it’s a combination of both the animated and live action, as some lyrics/moments are the animated , like Lefou reverted back to his original sorta idiot phase.

•met HER saw HER *kick* we stan.

•Lefou just waving his bag in the girls face. Legend lmao.

•a LOT more comedy then the movie. When Gaston drops the Boquet Lefou picks it up and smells it and just melts all cute like. My heart?

•”keep moving old legs.”

•Gaston is also a lot more like the animated, more dumbed down for comedic effect.

•so there’s no Philippe so some dudes took her dads wagon. That’s how jumanji started you know smh.

•PUPPETS IM SCREAMING.

Lumire looks like he’s absolutely losing his mind I’m deadddd. Also Cogsworth’s wig is my entire life.

• ok so the beasts voice- he sounds like a Pirate I’m crying “ee stole me rose matey.”

•belle straight up using the stick like a musket

•OML SO I NOW SEE THE EYES ON THE PUPPET AND IM LOSING MY DAMN MIND.

•storage space! Storage space! For all of Lumiere’s shoes! His shoes yes he had a feel large collection of shoes- he rather likes Heels-

Cogsworth.

What?

Stop talking.

•while my love massages my tight caves.

I’ll massage your caves Gaston!

Who has no one snatched you up yet? (He didn’t say girl :0)

•everyones awed and inspired by au

Gaston placing a hand to his chest.

•Gaston kissing his own portait, no bimbettes Lefou sings their line, no Tom , Dick or stanley that I can see either

•they all start russian dancing instead of the stopping/sword fight. Weird flex but ok.

Now the girls are... is that the cancan?

•Fun cult activity’s with friends

•lefou dreamily gasping over gaston along with the women.

•WHERED THE UKALELE COME FROM?!

• they kept my favorite line :)

•So Gaston has the French flag now? Also Maurice runs in automatically? Damn there goes pacing i guess- like aren’t they supposed to be together for at least awhile before going after her jeez

•why’s every single woman in this show use a super high pitched cutesy voice “YeAaA!” Is the audience one year olds and dogs???

•Gaston was a captain :0 Damn high rank.

•or a Budae *laughing* *distant roar* *s c r e a m *

•Madame de Garderobe has me screaming lmaoooo

•Mrs.Potts was a governess? Wack.

•ok so I cant describe the noise i made

L: OH YES! Darling

P: high pitched giggling.

The stage is still black and I can’t breathe-

They were definitely- whatever the equivalent would be of making out

•This plan is uh Dangerous~

I’m-I’m gay for the featherduster. This is not allowed. THEY ARE SO CUTE I CANNOT FUNCTION.

*more adorable couple giggling*

Cogsworth coughing

•food fashion show.. I cannot... I can’t function.

•Lumiere being dramatic:

Coggsworth: if i had hands, I’d slap you.

•*Whispers*Skin.

That’s- that’s not creepy at all lmao.

C’Est LA SALADE I CANT BREATHE WHATS HAPPENING.

•you lost me 2 verses ago now there’s cheese

•no one:

Plumette giggling and calling out everything:

•HOW IS MADAME DOWNSTAIRS IM SO CONFUSED

•OWWWWWWWWEWWWWWWWWWWW.

That hurts.

•ok so Mrs. Potts being a governess in this version now makes sense as she’s the one to start days in the sun instead of the queen/little Adam

•So Candenza is completely gone from this version????? So Lumierè and Plumette get both love lines from the song. Their still busy being cute as hell tho. (Does this imply their also singers? Pretty sure their still just footman/maid.)

•cogsworth now has Mrs.Potts lines but his voice is great.

•instead of soup it’s tea he I N H A L E and belle looks SO done lmao. Also no library?

•oh jeez yea no library just straight into something there.

•oh so the library is now IN something there, alright.

•Adam just DECKS Lumiere. Idk what that was about lmao - showing he’s nice now by uppercutting a candlestick across the room.

• BELLE:D this dork-

•Hes making jokes now.

•SWORDS. FIGHTING.

•”we love you.” But... everyone is still all-

Ok so either Mrs.Potts is a massive liar or they don’t count

•the dress is low key just as underwhelming as in the film

• Adam is trying *SHOVES CHAMPAGNE IN FACE*

•Plumette keeps running on and off stage idk what that’s about.

•the danceeeee

•Adam keeps talking about his mom

•no evermore ;-; my favorite song and it’s gone for a 5 second day’s in the sun reprise.

I’m wounded.

•belle casually taking a dudes knife to cut them free

•I feel like the mob song is cute down a lot, also Lumiere comes in sliding on his knees. Respect.

•”Gaston help.” Is kinda like nothing now as they have been so comedic. I feel nothing.

•i like the way they executed the final fight (beast/Gaston as servents vs the villages was literally nothing.)

•Lumiere sliding in on his knees again *French accent*YAAAAAAS

•ok so the death scene still hurts me like a truck.

Lumire: guys we did it :)

*literally watches the love of his life, his best friend and other friends die(yes it’s technically death.)*

Everyone steps away from the puppet and turns around, the lighting goes dark I’m - ;-;

•the prince is low key better in the suit the guy playing him is uhhhhhhhh I know the whole point is to look past Appearance but who’s dad is this?

•I’m absolutely SCREAMING. Instead of the dramatic one by one they all pop up together and collectively go :00000 what?! Whoa!

•Lumiere and Plumette low key not even a “hi.” Just kiss and start dancing. Mood.

•Ballet attack part 2 and middle aged prince returns.

•No chip or Madame at the end either! :0

•oh wait here’s chip!

Cogsworth melting in the background is me

𝐂𝐡𝐚𝐫𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐬/𝐏𝗼𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐲𝐚𝐥𝐬

so as I’ve said it’s like a mash up of the original and the remake with some of the choices it makes, I think it really makes or breaks some of the characters.

Lefou/Gaston-

Both of them fell back more into their Cartoon counterparts of : here to be the bad guy, here to be funny. Both of them become so overly comedic that you wouldn’t be able to tell who’s line was whos if you were shown them without being told. I think , funny as they were it negatively effected their character’s. Same case with the beast he definitely became more comedic if anything at all.

Lumierè/Cogsworth/Plumette-

These guys I think are the opposite. I think having a slight bit more of the animated made both banter and flirting hike it’s way up. Cogsworth and Lumierè were more showy in their banter , while Lumierè and Plumette were much more loud and showy with banter. Also the accents are art. Mrs. Potts was there to be the mother like figure and not given much of herself

Rip to chip who had like 4 lines and didn’t even show up to seconds before curtain. Also Madame de Garderobe who was there to be a good singer and nothing more as she lost her whole arc.Rip to Cadenza, Frou frou , Chapu and Philippe for being written out all together.

𝐂𝐡𝐚𝐧𝐠𝐞𝐬/𝐭𝐡𝗼𝐮𝐠𝐡𝐭𝐬

As I’ve said the changes either make or break some moments, like adding a overwhelming amount of comedy like the og movie. As funny as it was it did not have that same weight/gravity the remake did in its more serious/emotional scenes like the death/human again scenes I felt little here and Gaston betraying Lefou. As well as having the more serious/soft songs as the remake really backfired with so much comedy, and not even the more Witty subtle humor of the movie. Funny, but odd as character choice

So I know you had to cut it down a lot in order to fit it on stage however, nessisary parts or songs (evermore ;-;) were completely excluded likely do to the slightly unessisary over extension of dance numbers in Gaston(that didn’t need it) and Be our guest. Which could have been time better spent.

The servants are the absolute saving grace of this musical. The costumes! Oh!(again cogsworths wig is my life.) the humor! The acting, the singing, the relationships- all of it- all of it. They carry the entire thing, and if I’m honest it’s mainly Lumierè, Cogsworth and Plumette, occasionally Mrs. Potts if you stretch.
