You also gotta love how Old Man is a straight rip-off of Ben Franklin from "Ben & Me".

[@AndersLindroth]

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

[@AndersLindroth]

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

[@Whatsdogpee]

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.

[@phelous]

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?

[@TatsuraJ]

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.

[@ChristopherSobieniak]

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.

[@chsparkle]

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.

[@redkingrauri3769]

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!

[@ingridsuperfreak]

There's people who consider Belle a goldiggger, THIS ONE is a real example of one

[@kayleejazz1669]

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.

[@gracekim25]

Certainly interesting

[@allisonelizabeth6596]

@@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.

[@YMasterS]

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.

[@goufr3540]

There should be a movie of 'Airhead and the Goomba Warthog' featuring Old Man.

[@cthonisprincess4011]

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.

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.

[@AndersLindroth]

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?

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.

[@PlanetZoidstar]

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.

[@kayleejazz1669]

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.

[@fatalrob0t]

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.

[@nvfury13]

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.

In the original french novel, which is the oldest known version of Beauty and the Beast by Gabrielle-Suzanne Barbot de Villeneuve, Beauty has five sisters, and while they are selfish & greedy they are described as attractive, with Beauty who is known as Little Beauty, the most beautiful! She also leaves the Beast to attend her sisters' weddings, but they became jealous when Beauty attracts the attention of the sisters' suitors, though Beauty states she is only there to attend their weddings! Her father initially suggests she marry the Beast, though she still refuses to marry the Beast & as a result, her six brothers decide to prevent her from leaving, though after Beauty has a dream of the Beast dying she decides to return! A later version would reduce the number of siblings to Beauty, having two sisters & three brothers, with the sisters wanting Beauty to stay as they believe that the Beast will eat her in anger for breaking her promise to return in two months, thus the sisters' motives for making Beauty stay make sense in the version that introduced them being the one's who male her stay! Also, in the original novel, the Beast was a Prince who's father died when he was young, forcing his mother the Queen to wage war to defend their kingdom! The Queen was forced to leave him in the care of a fairy who turned out to be evil and tried to seduce the Prince once he became an adult, yet when he rejected her advances, she transformed him into a beast. Only by finding true love, despite his ugliness, could the curse be broken. After the curse is broken by Beauty agreeing to marry him (as he is near death rather than dying & Beauty is able to resuscitate him with water from a nearby spring) with her falling asleep & awaking to see the Prince now free of the curse! Additionally, the good fairy that had tried to tell Beauty not to judge by appearances in her dreams (in which she encountered the Prince whom she became convinced was being held by the Beast somewhere in the castle), appears with a woman she doesn't recognize, who turns out to be the Prince's mother, though she is disappointed that Beauty is seemingly a commoner, only for the good fairy to reveal Beauty is actually her niece! It turns out the Merchant isn't Beauty's real father, as her real father was the good fairy's brother-in-law & also the Queen's brother from Fortunate Island and Beauty's real mother is the good fairy's sister! Beauty's mother has broken the laws of fairy society by falling in love with a human, so she is sentenced to remain in the fairy land and Beauty is sentenced to marry a hideous beast when she grows up. After Beauty's mother disappears, the evil fairy who cursed the Prince for rejecting her unsuccessfully attempts to take Beauty's life and marry her father. Beauty's aunt, the good fairy, intervenes and exchanges Beauty for the dead daughter of the Merchant (it is unclear if he is aware of the switch). The good fairy also places the Beast in a magically hidden castle until Beauty grows old enough to meet him & by getting them together, the curse will be broken & Beauty won't have to suffer the punishment for her mother's crime of loving a human as her agreeing to marry the Beast effectively fulfills the parameters of her sentence! Also since Beauty's biological father is the Queen's brother, the Prince & Beauty are first cousins, though first cousin marriage isn't uncommon among royalty (both in fiction & real life)! So this the Golden Films & Goodtimes version's an evil fairy did it is actually somewhat faithful to the original novel as the Beast's curse actually is due to the actions of an evil fairy (who is also responsible for Little Beauty ending up being raised by the Merchant) & is actually a victim of the evil fairy who tries to seduce both the Prince & Beauty's biological father! Also the good fairy who is Beauty's aunt explains why some versions have an evil fairy & a good fairy, as Beauty's aunt is responsible for protecting her & tries to convince her to not judge by appearances (effectively Beauty is the one who grows in the original version of the story as she loves the Prince from her dreams but fails to realize he is the Beast whom she eventually comes to love! Also she willingly goes to stay with the Beast, whom she discovers is more inclined to stupidity than savagery! So Clara is apparently based upon Little Beauty's aunt from the original novel, while Clara's sister is based upon the evil fairy! So this version does include elements from the original novel, though leaves out Beauty being a princess & the Prince being her estranged cousin as she's been living under the assumed identity of the Merchant's youngest daughter who apparently died & was swapped out to fool the evil fairy who cursed the Prince (whom she babysat for & later tried to seduce as an adult) cause he simply wasn't interested in his evil fairy babysitter who decided to move on to the Prince's uncle just to get rid of his half-fairy daughter who was sentenced to marry a beast cause fairy law forbids them from falling love with humans & that being a child of such a union is also a crime!

[@PokemarioThe2nd]

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...)

[@MinscFromBaldursGate92]

The doll version of beauty has more personality than the animated one.

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

[@DeepEye1994]

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".

[@MrBrassBalls]

That anime as fuck dramatic twitching at 8:39 cracks me up

[@Jansci7G]

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.

[@colonelpimpers2541]

Old Man is the best character ever.

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?

[@morganyoung3557]

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.

[@mitchfletcher2386]

MforMovesets Granted, she is played by Susan Silo. Or Wuya from Xiaolin Showdown.

[@morganyoung3557]

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.

[@mitchfletcher2386]

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.

[@the13throse]

Or a hermit crab...ironic, considering their name.

[@realafah]

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 ):

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.

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.

[@seanmatyas3938]

I don't know what Phelous is complaining about. They focused on the most important character, Old Man.

[@JenamDrag0n]

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.

[@Tareltonlives]

This story is inherently problematic, even with the best versions; this version doesn't even try to fix anything.

[@trixxsaurus2386]

"...Or is talking to you worse than no one at all?" MOOD
