[@TaylorZanderFrancis]

According to an interview with an animator for this film, Paul Gunson, nobody at Bevanfield saw this or Aladdin as anything more than cashing in on the Disney films, and that there were no line testers or checkers. Apparently, different staff members, such as secretaries, were given writing and producing work, many non animators, so no permanent senior members were there to learn from. Also, no rushes were checked before the final print was made. To make matters worse, the voice actors recorded to animation, not the other way around, so the director guessed the time for lip movements, and when the actors tried to match it up, it wasn't enough to match up, but rather than cut the extra space (again, cause it was the final print), the director would simply cut between lines in order to make the dialogue fit the animation, hence the awkward pauses. It was a mess.

What's really baffling to me is how nice much of the background art is. Dingo's backgrounds look like they have been drawn by drunk primary school kids from special ed class, but Bevanfield, in contrast, apparently employs a background artist who has more talent and better skills than everybody else working on this combined. It just stresses how shit the character design and how jerky the animation is.

Also, how dare they rip-off Disney's Beauty and the Beast remake by featuring an openly gay character before Disney even conceived the idea?!

There is something you might have not noticed. They keep switching back and fourth with not only styles and how the actors should sound like with their characters. But with how many fingers they have through out the entire movie, and not just the one scene with Beauty's 3 finger witch hand.

[@ScottPillgram20]

Honestly, I think Beavenfield might be worse than Dingo. Dingo at least seems like they're on a real small budget and had a voiced narrator. Not to mention they seemed to of dubbed the movies with their own cast, despite English not being their first language. Beavenfield doesn't really have the excuse of a bad budget if they managed to get the decently sized cast that they had for this film. Not to mention the random cuts and having text on the screen describe what happened(At least Dingo would have some stock footage and a narrator. Beavenfield clearly had the scenes animated, but they forgot to voice anything for some reason.) Hell, I'd say Dingo films are more fun to watch then this flick. Dingo's movies are just so hilariously incompetent, tone deft, and stupid you can't help but laugh. This film just seemed like such a dull, slow drag that manages to feel way worse than any of the previous Beauty and the Beast knockoffs. Also, that frog that kept popping up is gonna be a reoccurring thing in their movies, isn't it?

[@rhett8-u1n]

It makes me think this would be something Dingo would do if they had a bigger budget and ambition. Kinda like Goodtimes did with Rudolph; releasing something on the big screen that only looks like a slightly better TV special. Or in this case, going from ms paint quality to storyboard test quality.

[@superspyro3000]

I always got the impression that Dingo Pictures was really a group of friends who made movies at home with everything they have. Their movies are awful, but they probably had fun making them, so I don't usually trash them very much. Bevanfield may not be any good either, but if they can get big name actors to voice their characters, they can certainly hire better people to work on their movies. I still cannot get myself to say they are worse than Golden Films, though.

[@TigerheartFire]

What's honestly rather weird to me about the Bevanfield version (and the anime version with Maria, too), at least in comparison to the other versions that Phelous has reviewed so far, is that Beauty and her sisters have a much more functional and healthy relationship here. All the dysfunction seems to come from DuBleurgh and his insistence on trying to force Beauty to marry his cousin. And here I thought that Old Man was the worst Beauty's Father character (not counting his comedic value being off the charts.) Granted, it's gross that Lucinda and Prunella are actually _into_ getting it on with Renart in place of Beauty, but at least the sisters otherwise have a better family dynamic than all the ones that paint the extra siblings as the ugly stepsisters 2: Electric Boogaloo. I think it's actually a bit more interesting to me to see the siblings getting along better than the title character and her father. Remember, kiddies. Incest is not wincest.

Bee Movie 2: Beauty and the Bee Years after the events of the first movie, Vanessa Bloom decides to confess her love for Barry. Barry accepts, having held in similar feelings for her. Despite a bee and human marriage being unorthodox, the priest is willing to try something new. Ken is invited to attend, but he is still baffled that his fiance wanted to get together with a bee and sad about being rejected. The rest of the movie focuses on Ken's crippling depression. He ponders the meaning of life and questions why yogurt nights are as difficult as they are. Two bees, named Christopher Bee and Bee Bradley Baker, acting as the comic relief, try to help him, but they keep reminding him of Barry B Benson. As the movie progresses, he develops more and more of a hatred of bees and finds that he cannot escape bees no matter where he goes. The movie ends with Ken hanging himself to ascend to heaven, where he can finally be rid of bees in his life. The movie then cuts to an after credits scene of all the characters doing the Whip/Ney Ney dance. Rated PG

Beauty's outfit looks 20th century. Actually, none of the dresses are right. And sometimes they have 4 finger (3 and a thumb) and sometimes they have 5.

[@nomduclavier]

dancepiglover You might be expecting too much. But if you just wanna bully the film more, I understand and respect that.

[@dancepiglover]

Those were things that I couldn't help but notice.

[@dogman9291]

@@dancepiglover Gun is also very wrong for the era. It resembles a mix between a revolver and a modern pistol, when in the 1700s (which this, judging by the wigs, is when this seems to be set in if I'm not wrong) it would have to be a flintlock pistol.

[@SammEater]

Gotta love how even if the movie is extremely bad, Christopher Lee always does his best while everyone else half ass their work.

To the film's credit, that *was* pretty interesting... ...Sadly a case of too little too late, though.

[@archer1949]

To be fair......Marriage between cousins to that degree of consanguinity were actually quite common to keep the family fortunes intact.

[@gRinchY-op5vr]

Thing is even Disney knew that even during a time or situation where cousins married, you don't involve that in a kids film. These guys just said "eh fuck it the kids won't notice and the parents won't want to point it out so keep it in anyway"

[@dragonempress8367]

Still gross.

[@unamed2516]

redloiyu654jay I’ve heard of a few people who were cousins and got married and give birth to pretty okay looking children.

[@oren1305]

Sure, but back then, it wasn't just one generation of incest for royals; meaning a historical figure like, say, Don Carlos of Spain might have had normal-ish parents but was mentally ill and violent because of all the inbreeding. It affects generations ahead of one's own children. Physical deformities are also not the only issue.

[@oren1305]

@Steely Greye Very true, and I don't believe I said normal people typically intermarried within their family, but I'll fix that. Also I was mostly just mentioning that incest has a greater cost than just being, "icky". But yes you're completely right of course. :) Edit: I'd also like to add that I think, perhaps, the royal prince you're thinking of was Prince Charles II of Spain? He had the infamous Hapsburg jaw and could barely walk or speak properly; he was apparently very sweet though.

did he really have to lick his lips before asking to marry his first cousin once removed? jesus what a freak

[@EagleTimberWolf]

"No one commits incest like rip-off Gaston!"

[@AndersLindroth]

@@EagleTimberWolf Interestingly, before Disney turned Gaston into a town bully and muscular huntsman, they had a concept of him being a slender aristocrat with a white wig. Much like Mensiour Renard.

[@Hauptseite]

The most distracting thing about the animation in this film is how _sometimes_ the characters have four fingers, but other times they have three and they resemble claws. That first scene with Lee talking with his brother has multiple characters flip-flop between four fingers and three claws.

[@FelisTerras]

At 30:56-31:00 I burst out laughing. That was an actual line in the movie? Who, not out of their friggin' mind high on every hallucinogenic substance avaiable drunk off their a$$, could conceive something like that, if not to troll the actor? But seriously, I'm more interested in the awkward romance between the father and the elderly caretaker, simply because they had better chemistry and got to the point straight away.

[@ShayLaLaLooHoo]

"Why don’t we sell the quilts we make?" Beauty says, about the quilts her _sisters_ make while she reads and their father naps.

Bevanfield, the cartoon equivalent of tryptophan makes you kinda wish Dingo Pictures made their own Beauty & the Beast cause at least their movies don't put you to sleep! Still, at least it gave us Moisuer Rodent for Old Man to repeatedly perform his Neck Snap Fatality upon!

[@nerdler7468]

[@sophiahughes5355]

Fun fact, Michael Horden (who voiced Beauty's dad) voiced Gandalf in the BBC Radio adaptation of Lord of the RIngs

[@kyleweaver2076]

Going from portraying King Lear on stage and narrating a Stanley Kubrick film to this sad sack of an adaptation, I can see why Hordern didn't give two shits in his performance. At least Christopher Lee somewhat tried to provide one aspect of this movie something that's remotely tolerable.

[@Rebochan]

That's pretty much what Christopher Lee did in every movie he was in. The guy was never on autopilot even when he was in garbage.

[@LadyTylerBioRodriguez]

Him and Peter Cushings made everything more watchable. Dracula AD 1972 is a shitty shitty boring film, but both of them make it watchable when they are around.

[@theotherghostgirl337]

Rebochan maybe Lee's autopilot is just an excellent performance? Being a good actor is kinda the difference between life and death for a spy.

[@MontyPythonFanatic2]

Still less of a waste of Christopher Lee than Revenge of the Sith and Burton's Alice in Wonderland.

[@LadyTylerBioRodriguez]

Oh god he was in Alice in Wonderland and says... like two lines. You wasted Christopher Lee and now you can never get him back, THIS IS YOUR FAULT TIM!

[@swiftshock2615]

To make matters worse, “Renard” is the French word for fox. So the villain’s names in English are Mr. Rodent and Mr. Fox. ...screw you movie! Foxes are cute.

[@madsceptictrooper6803]

Yeah! Foxes are very adorable indeed.

[@RumbleDelta]

28:00 Okay, no joke, for realsies, honestly, one hundred percent truthfully, not exaggerating, legitimately, not making this up, completely bluntly, hand on heart, all joking aside I could not for the _life of me_ tell if that was seriously in the film or if it was one of Phelous' edits, I swear to god I watched over and over and I seriously can't tell.

amethystducky Sir Micheal Hordern voiced Mr. Badger, did a lot of beautiful work for radio and stage, too. Hearing him in this POS was so painful!

[@petehill7280]

That's Michael Hordern. He's one of my favourite voice actors, and did a lot of great things. He read audiobooks for The Chronicles of Narnia, was the voice of Mr Badger in the Cosgrove Hall adaptation of The Wind In The Willows, narrated the opening of Watership Down, voiced Gandalf in a radio adaptation of Lord of The Rings, did all of the voices for Paddington, and was the voice of the old wise man with a bird for a hat in Labyrinth. It is pitiful that he was in this though.

[@andrewollmann304]

Pete Hill He was also Prospero, Polonius for Shakespeare productions, and Jacob Marley in the 1951 Alastair Sim Christmas Carol!

[@leontrotsky7816]

Actually, when the cast list came up, I noticed Michael Hordern was in it before Christopher Lee. Lee's better known internationally because he did/does Hollywood films, but Hordern or his voice seemed to be in everything British in the 80s.

I wonder if Christopher Lee ever looked back on his work for this and thought to himself "That was absolute crap, why did I agree to that? It just wasn't worth the paycheck". Seriously, how did anyone think this was good enough to be released to the public? Bad lip flaps, terrible artwork and animation sets, horribly edited audio and music, scenes that seem out of order, awkward pauses and silences have absolutely no point and don't lead into anything, and let's not even get started on "Beauty's" singing, it's pretty obvious no one on the creative team actually gave a shit...why did they make this again? To cash in on Beauty and the Beast? And just how well did this piece of shit succeed at that, I wonder...oh, clearly not well at all. I'd rather watch the GoodTimes version just so I can laugh at Old Man (Thank you for making that crap funny with your Old Man jokes Phelous! :D )

[@daliborjovanovic510]

I hope that Phelous will review animated Jungle Book mockbusters at some point, both Bevanfield and Jetlag will be happy to give him material. And Bevanfield`s Shere Khan is a thing of beauty that has to be seen to be believed -_-

[@sweetcinnamonpnchkin]

I had to look it up after you typed this. That Shere Khan looks like he has mange and got his head stuck in a blender. And holy crap, what was Kaa's skull made out of?!?

[@daliborjovanovic510]

He looked like a crack addicted, less anthropomorphic version of Prince John from Disney`s Robin Hood who lived his entire life as a hobo, with mange of course. And his voice sounded like a crappy John Cleese impression. I get that the novels Shere Khan was lame and a pathetic braggart, but Bevanfield took that aspect way too far.

[@Tareltonlives]

I hoped he would do those for last year's epic remake, but I guess those can wait.

[@anikmonette2140]

sweetcinnamonpnchkin Yeah, I watched this version and holy shit, I even question if each character had their own designer/animator since they don't seem to belong/move in the same environment!

I can’t get over the fact that Christopher lee gave so much of a damn in this movie of all things to actually use a French accent and even go through the effort to change up his voice so he actually sounds like a character and not just Christopher Lee reading lines. It’s actually kinda sad that even in this shit of a movie he gave more of a damn than some voice actors in huge box office films
