Could you do a reaction to A Week Away please? :)
You're probably going to be surprised when I say this Hannah, but I just checked the box office records for this movie and they actually disagree with you. Not only did it surpass it's $255 million dollar budget, but it did even better than the animated film. The animated film grossed 440.1 million dollars while the live-action one grossed 1.266 billion dollars. While I agree that the CGI on the beast wasn't good (I'm surprised they didn't give him a beast suit like the one in the old Beauty and the Beast TV series) and they didn't show enough of Belle as a strong feminist, I like how they added elements from both the book and the cartoon as well as add some original material. In fact, Jon Solo, a guy with a UA-cam channel called "Messed Up Origins," broke down why the remake is better than the original:
1. The villain song: the song "Gaston" in the live-action version was actually the version that was supposed to be in the animated film, but the movies was running too longs, so they had to trim it down. Bringing the extended version back in this one works because it flushes Gaston out a bit more as we get more information about his past, not to mention we get to see more of his ego.
2. The plot holes: there were several plot holes in the animated film that Solo pointed out (plot holes I didn't know about, and I had seen that film dozens of time) that the live-action film filled. Plot hole #1: the beast's castle is near the village but the villagers didn't know it exist nor did they notice the people who worked in the castle and lived there were missing, which didn't make sense. The live-action film fixed this problem by having the enchantress place a spell over them, making they forget about the castle and the people inside it. Plot hole #2: The beast has been cursed for 10 years (according to Lumiere in the Be Our Guest song), which would make him 11 when he was cursed by the enchantress. The problem with this was that it makes her unlikeable as she cursed a small child who would probably grow out of his bratty ways. The live-action version fixed this by changing that lyric in "Be Our Guest" to "So Long have we been rusting," and made the beast a full-grown man so the enchantress doesn't get villainized.
3. The Beast: In the deleted song "human again", it is revealed that the beast is not intelligent and can't read, which doesn't make sense because he's been stuck there for most of his life. The live-action film fixed this problem by having the beast be just as smart as belle and have the same interest as her, especially when it came to books.
4. Belle: Maurice is the inventor in the family, not belle. The problem with this is that it leaves no good reason for the villagers to find her odd. In the live-action film, Emma Watson fixed this issue by insisting that she'd be an inventor like her father, which makes the reason for the villagers to view her differently more sense.
The guys on cinema therapy brought up a point in the story that works better in the live-action film than the animated one. In the animated film, the entire castle was cursed because of his heartless actions, which is unfair to them because they didn't do anything wrong. The live-action film fixed this by having all of them treat the woman horribly so that her reasoning for cursing everyone in there is justified.
There were a couple of things from the book that was added to the film. The scene where Maurice steals a rose from the Beast's castle is in the book and I'm glad they put it in the film because it makes more sense for Maurice to be imprisoned than the reason in the animated film. The beast's movements in the live-action film are more like the book than in the cartoon. In the book, he moves in a more elegant way, whereas in the cartoon he moves like an actual animal. I don't mind either way, they're movements are good overall.
Is the live-action film as good as the original? No, but I did like how they added new things to it, all the while keeping it nostalgic.
Hello, this has nothing to do with the current video but do yourself a favor and react/watch Coffee in the Morning video/song by JEREMY JORDAN
you're welcome
Could you react to What happened to Ryan - Jessie Murph
you know one thing that you would not be disappointed of watching. HEAR ME OUT! Its a netflix movie acall Arlo the alligator. The music and the voices from the characters are too damn good!!!
Regardless of whatever people think of this movie as a whole, I think Dan Stevens deserves some props. He did all of his Beast scenes, including the dance, in a 40 lb motion capture suit and 10 inch stilts. He also trained with vocal coach Anne-Marie Speed at the Royal Academy of Music. He put in the work to learn how to sing Evermore and then got fucked over by the layers of autotune and the mixing to make his voice sound lower and more “beast-like.” I’m still devastated that they did not include a version of Dan singing the song without all the filters on the film’s soundtrack. Anyways, the point is Dan always fully commits to his roles and deserves some respect for it even if the movie itself was not great.
Honestly, Evermore was one of the few redeeming features of the film for me. An original song with a lot of emotion, I love the lyrics, sung well (even with the autotune), and nicely shot/CGI'd.
@@oliviabolger2690 I can’t find it
;-;
Thank you!! I feel like his performance always gets overlooked when people react to this movie, I’m glad more people are appreciating it
huh... josh groban's beast costume was around 60lbs when he did the abc special. not trying to say one's better than the other but wow, disney's really making these men carry lots of weight on their backs
@@earlgaytea They’ve both played the character & sang Evermore. Josh even recorded a version of the song for the soundtrack of the live action film. Comparisons are bound to happen. However, I love both men & could never choose between them.
Belle being into the beast because he’s a beast is the FUNNIEST thing, and I can’t I see it now 🤣🤣🤣
You can't "unsee" it now you mean.
@@RedRoseSeptember22 no, touch grass 🫳🌿
Real talk though, Bella was 100% down to get all close and romantic with him while he was a Beast, me as a a little kid was so confused when he changed back into human and she was okay with it. I felt like she should just look at him and tell him to change back or at least go "Wait, who the hell are you?". It didn't help that I absolutely HATED how he looked like in the original animated movie as a human (and the live action version is... generic kinda good-looking human male A, so better, but still absolutely no fanfare, though I guess it balances out with his beast form being far less changing than the original; both are just more mediocre on their respective spectrums).
@@wooshbait36 Not the correct use of that comeback, I think you should take your own advice 💀
Honestly
There's a popular theory that part of the reason that Belle and her father aren't well-liked isn't because they're educated/they make contraptions/etc. it's because they're *different.* The entire village has gone on under the Enchantress' spell for years, unchanging, stuck in a timeloop, Belle even says herself that "every morning's just the same" and all the townspeople are always doing the *exact same things.* Belle and her father *moved to town* sometime after the curse, which makes them unusual and out of place in the unchanging village.
thanks
Ooh I like that theory! Good find.
I got to talk with one of the sound designers for this movie and what he said to me is that Emma Watson wasn't auto-tuned, but they constantly shifted back and forth between what she sang in studio & the live singing she did (already sounds like a nightmare) and they were doing it almost a week until the premiere. It wasn't because she didn't have a nice voice, but what she sang on set wasn't usable due to background noise or exhaustion from long days. What you're hearing isn't auto-tune, but constant flipping back & forth between studio takes and real life vocals, where the performances were different every-time. He even revealed she had practiced for months on end and she was so upset with how it sounded in the end.
Okay that’s actually really nice to know so thank you for this comment. Makes a looot more sense now. I hope Hannah sees this because she deserves the explanation too lol
I would be upset too that sounds awful
That is absolutely brutal. Now that I know this I can totally hear it.
@@purplehood8418 it’s sad knowing also the sound engineers were doing they could under the circumstances
I remember reading this before . Whenever you can see her face on camera , she's singing live , whenever she's facing away , it's the studio . You can actually really notice it in the belle reprise when she sing "there must be more than this provincial life" she turns around and back when she sings"life" and you can hear the cuts on that word. The apparently done it to make the singing look more real rather than lip synced, but by having the actors sing live , the mouth didn't completely match the studio. Her voice is heavily pitch corrected , because they Frankensteined all her vocals together . They did Emma very dirty. They really embarrassed her and it's unfair , because she really took the brunt of the criticism. I think people forget , she wouldn't be the one auto tuning her vocals and wouldn't even be aware until it's release
I heard a talk by one of the guys who played Gaston on Broadway and he said Gaston and Beast had journeys that mirrored eachother. Beast went from literally being an animal to rediscovering his humanity, while Gaston went from being the alpha male in town to losing his humanity and behaving like an animal in the end.
Okay I love that 👏
I love how Hannah was like "I hate this" the entire time, but when the Beast turns back into a human she goes: "Kiss! Kiss!"
Literally the most I'm-here-for-any-romance reaktion ever
😅😅
What to do, He's so fine!
Fun fact, the scene where Belle is singing in the place where her mother died was actually the one part of the movie that Emma Watson did sing live. The director actually told Emma he would use the playback in the movie version but was lying because he wanted to use Emma's live singing to make the scene more emotional. And it's clearly where Emma's singing is at its best. I honestly never noticed Emma's singing being autotuned and always felt people were exaggerating but you brought up a good point that it doesn't have any vibrato like it should. So while I don't think the autotune is insufferable like others do, I do notice it more now. But now I want a release of the soundtrack with Emma singing without the autotune ASAP.
To be honest I liked the flower dress that Belle wore at the end better than the yellow dress.
Every other dress she wore in the entire movie was miles better than that yellow monstrosity.
I definitely want to see Hannah react to the Aladdin and Lion King remakes to see what she thinks of the music as well as the movies themselves.
yes to Aladdin, yes.
@@MattZRJSRoxy And that random Jasmine music video haha
I honestly think Hannah would love her songs- very good vocal reach and belts
I'd like her reaction to Aladdin. The Lion King? Not so much😅
THAT IS WATH I SAYING!!!
Evermore is one of the best songs from this movie so idk where the hate came from. Also quick explanation: When he says that “she’ll never leave me even as she runs away”, he means she fundamentally changed him as a person and for that the parts she changed will always be with him. It’s in the same vein as when a singer says they can’t recognize themselves after a breakup but in the more positive way.
Hence why the next two lines are “she will still inspire me and be a part of everything I do”
Evermore is amazing, one of my most favorite film songs to date!! 😍
I feel like they didn't give Ewan McGregor (Lumiere) the credit he deserves because like this man can SING! He was in Moulin Rouge and his voice just sounded so off in this movie.
I'm so glad someone said it. I also remember him saying he struggled a bit because of the accent but I love Be our guest!
5 years later and I still feel like I'm one of the only people who truly enjoyed this remake. Maybe it's because I was already such a huge fan of Dan Stevens, and I was excited to see Emma in a new role again... but I loved how they tried to give it some historical context, and even fleshed out some of the plot holes that the animated version just sort of glosses over; why nobody seemed to remember a nearby castle with a Prince, the reason why the staff felt guilty, the enchanted book, and most importantly the callback to the fairytale origins of Maurice stealing a rose for Belle being the cause of his imprisonment! I also enjoyed the way they show Beast's intelligence and education that he would have had, being a Prince. Maybe it's because I work in a bookstore, but falling in love over poetry and literature makes me weak in the knees. Haha. The only thing I wish they would have been able to do was bring in "Human Again" from the musical. THAT would have been amazing to see in this. I also can't get over how Dan Stevens and Hattie Morahan (Agathe/The Enchantress) were reunited in this. They played Edward Ferrars and Elinor Dashwood in an adaptation of "Sense and Sensibility" together. I was so excited when I recognized Hattie in the theater that someone actually shushed me!
Thank you for this... this review and the responses to it in the comments really disappointed me. So much hate for such a good movie! People don't have to like it, but this amount of negative commentary was overkill in my opinion. All this to say that I find your comment refreshing.
I LOVE this movie!!! It is one of my all time favorites and have watched it probably about 15 times. I watch it when I'm feeling down and it makes me happy. I'm not a singer, so I don't hear the auto tune. I feel like the bad reviews and her reaction were over the top! She picked out so many things that were just silly to "hate". Like the sleeves on Belle's dress and even the dress itself. 🙄 I thought the dress was really pretty. And the beast's face - it's better than the cartoon! I feel like the cartoon version is for children and this version is for children and adults (I'm not big on animation). I feel sad for the people that picked it apart and didn't like it. They looked too hard and are missing out on a great movie!!!
The remake is so good!!
Yes thank you for saying this! I loved the remake! I don’t understand why people pick apart this movie so much. It filled in a lot of plot holes like you said and made it more realistic to the time period. Even with the auto tune such wasn’t emmmas fault the music was beautiful and so was the costuming.
YES FINALLY! I ALSO REALLY ENJOYED THIS MOVIE SO MUCH! In my opinion I think Emma fit belle’s character really well and I loved everything about it in general❤
"omg Belle! You and Beast both have dead moms." Your commentary on this movie is INCREDIBLE.
"MARTHA!!!"
Genuinely, she said that and I lost it
"The enchantress is a bitch" 😂
I love your reactions and I completely agree with you about the dress. I was so excited to see what they would do with Belle's dress because they did such a good job with Cinderella's dress. But then when she came down the stairs wearing that I was like. . .Oh?
We all were lol.
My whole family thinks I'm crazy for hating her dress.
yeah i think the big difference is that cinderella's dress was done how it was with cgi, versus for belle they decided to have it be real
@@kateschneider8789 I think a large part had to do with using Swarovski crystals in Cinderella's dress and glitter and /glue/ for Belle's....oh and letting Emma Watson having some say in the design....or so rumors say last I checked.
The Cinderella dress shall not be topped. And Lily James in it? Whew! Should’ve brought Sandy Powell back in.
i was really relieved that you didn't slay emma watson - she posted somewhere that she was so excited and taking singing lessons and learning how to ride because she loves this movie so much and wanted to do it well. the auto-tune isn't her fault, yet she was ridiculed by LOTS of people about it...
there is a 4-second-clip of her singing 'poor provincial town' and she sounds lovely. i don't know why they did this - and then pitched her up to luke evans, and ewan mcgregor and audrey madonald!
i still love the movie for what it is, but the auto-tune was so unnecessary...
It wasn't auto tune. What you're hearing is the switching between studio and live recording because they were struggling with the audio.
You're too big an of HP fan
@@purpleclaws202 not really.
@Sarah Heri she ruined this movie by a LOT. her terrible singing, and she's already a bad actress with all that excessive eyebrow acting. She also ruined the Belle Gown dress, and her reasoning is ridiculous and stupid. As well as her being an inventor because...??? Again stupid. As well as making Belle more aggressive and again BAD SINGING, made her the worst Belle.
@@instanthumanustaddcoffeeit's still pitch corrected
I will say Luke Evans and Josh Gad were just perfection and "Gaston" was performance gold
I must say, 'Be Our Guest' has always been my favorite Disney song... and seeing the scene in the live action made me tear up, not gonna lie.
Tear up with wth feelings or enjoyment
@@karenlowe9283, enjoyment. I honestly really loved that version of the scene
Beauty and the Beast has always been my favorite, I was tearing up through the whole thing lol
That's how I felt about the 'Beauty and the Beast' scene. Especially when the big orchestral swell happens and the fairy lights are like suspended all around them. I freaking lost it. My husband asked if he needed to turn it off to give me a minute.
And just when I thought I couldn’t love Hannah more, I find out she’s a Slytherin 🐍💚
Right?
Same!!
tbh I was really surprised - I'd have taken her for a fellow Puff...
I thought she'd be a Ravenclaw! I'm not surprised though, she's soooo sarcastic and makes such acid jokes that Slytherin makes much more sense for her. I love that btw 😍
The problem with Belle’s dress is that they let Emma change the whole design. Originally they had a VERY similar dress (almost exact copy) of Belles dress but Emma changed it because she didn’t feel comfortable wearing that big of a dress
I never see it as a problem I like they actually allowed and gave emma the choice to change the dress to what she is comfortable in rather than forcing her to wear a dress that would have been so big
She made it into a feminist thing which I found odd
@@lunarialoonatic I heard she was upset because she didn’t wanna wear a corset because she felt like that was sexism that she had to wear one for a dress like this but it’s literally just apart of the costume and accurate for the time period.
Wouldn’t think of her any less if she wore a corset tbh
Yet emma wore a corset in little women!
@@elainehessey2315 For real! She is backwards, maybe if she looked up Bernadette Banner or the other historians, she would know that stays and corsets were a type of pre-bra before there were brassieres. 🙄
I have to admit I love the growl when Belle asked how he’d feel about growing a beard.😂😂😂
Same LOL
That was probably the only best part lol
I prefer "If I Can't Love Her" as the Beast's song from the musical but "Evermore" is quite good as well. "Gaston" really is the highlight for me because Luke & Josh just nail it being the one song in this remake that holds up against it's original counterpart.
Gaston’s song is the only real reason I watch this movie. It’s SO GOOD! 😂
like 20 seconds in YOU LOOK SO BEAUTIFUL😭 SCREAMING CRYING
what did we do to deserve you?
Ange STOP I’m gonna get a big head 😭🥹
BRUH SO TRUE
So true though. Hannah looks stunning!
Hannah, I literally GUFFAWED when you answered chips question with “sexual tension??”😂😂😂😂
HAHAHA Same!!
Came to the comments for that it took me out 🤣
Ok. So. Bass/Baritone here! I have sung Evermore many times. It’s my favorite song to belt to. It feels so good. I have dug deep into the emotion of that song and I have some input. At the beginning on the song he says “I close my eyes but she’s still there” what he’s saying is I wish to forget her but I can’t. Then later he says “though she’s already flown so for beyond my reach she’s never out of sight” and “now I know she’ll never leave me even as she fades from view” whats he’s saying is she is physically leaving me, but I will always remember her in my heart and mind. All I have to do is close my eyes and she is right there. I hope this helps!
I loved the dress in Cinderella. Actually, that was one of the best live actions that Disney has done.
I completely agree! My favorite by far! They added so much to the movie. They could have still made it a musical (because we all know Lily James can sing) but they went with a more realistic-feeling version where animals can’t talk. Even though I LOVE musicals, I think that choice really worked in their favor.
Adding having previously met Kit, getting more time to get to know her mom and dad, and then her step-mother and siblings… it really adds to the story.
I think the success of Cinderella was what gave Disney the "permission" to make everything else live action, not fully understanding what it was about Cinderella that made it the masterpiece it is.
They only ruined it by missing the music 😢 if it had the music, it would definately be the best Disney live action ever made
Actually Disney was embarrassed by that Cinderella live action they even admitted that they were embarrassed by it. The fact that you think they were inspired by it is a literal joke.
Nope Aladdin was way better
Lily James was Cinderella, Lily Collin’s was Snow White in Mirror Mirror 😂
I guess we needed another Lilly 🤣
yeah I was gonna say 🤣 LILY JAMES!!!
love both of them tbh
Great reaction! Though, I'm surprised you didn't comment on LeFou's added lyric in The Mob Song about how he was having doubts that Gaston was doing the right thing when following Gaston before turning around and [in Gaston's opinion] betraying him. ("There's a beast running wild, there's no question, but I fear the wrong monster's released"). Makes me actually respect LeFou more as a character, because it shows he knows right from wrong, unlike Gaston who he was so blindly following.
Would love to see your reaction to the new Aladdin and Lion King renditions as well!
Josh Gad's LeFou is By Far the Best interpretation of LeFou come to life!! He's the Best!! Cheers on Josh Gad! 😁👍🏻🏆🍻
Honestly got to appreciate that the villain was actually going for blood. The bad guys usually miss or talk too much or give ample oppertunity for escape, Gaston shooting to kill at every oppertunity.
I really enjoyed this movie when I saw it in theaters and I still enjoy it. I personally think Evermore is one of the best songs in the movie. I also think what he meant was Belle’s impact will not leave him.
I like this movie too. And evermore is such a great song. Love the version josh groban did for the soundtrack too
Yah same
I don’t think I’ve ever seen Hannah dislike something more 😂😂😂😂😂
Cinderella with Camilla Cabello is up there along with Mal bf from Descendants
Her face when she sees The Dress is priceless 😂
@@jeidamartin5496 oooh true true Cinderella is DEFINITELY up there lol
Descendants 3
Ben's hair from Descendants (all 3). She hates his hair and isn't afraid to say something. 🤣
Very good point about Beast letting Belle go after the dance scene, and I think one of the changes that made Beast not so interesting is the fact that he doesn’t give Belle the library as a gift like in the animated movie, he just shows it to her.
❤️ Thanks for your endless love and support you have shown me. I’m forever grateful. I really appreciate your unconditional love and support towards me... Where are you watching from?
I don't know. He let her go because she needed to help her dad. I don't feel like it discounted anything because he wasn't expecting her love in return.
@@emmawatson-xn7wn
I absolutely LOVE this movie!!! Don't listen to what anyone says - you did a great job, as did all the others!! This is what I wrote on another post:

@@cherylhall1741sorry to break it tk you but that’s a spam account, it’s not really Emma 😭
@@instanthumanustaddcoffee the thing is that it felt like she had to say she was a prisoner for him to realise it, then he felt guilty and then he let her go. In the animated movie she just said her father was sick and alone and then the beast knew he had to let her go, it's a huge difference.
I feel like you’d love hearing Joshua Henry as Gaston in the live TV event they did last year
How am I supposed to hate Gaston if he's playing him
Omg Brooke! I love your content ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
As soon as Audra McDonald starts singing, I just get goosebumps all over my body. She is Queen!!❤️❤️
The most English-sounding Paris-born, and French countryside-raised girl ever lol! And YES, watching the original again is always great, especially after this haha
And the Scottish sounding French candlestick
What’s funny is Emma is actually Paris-born 😂 though obviously not raised
@@karenn.396 lol that is kinda funny
anna kendrick recently did an interview where she explained how she auditioned for a movie and lost out on the role to someone who couldn’t sing and like- i’m 99.99% sure she’s talking about this movie. lol.
I would have loooved is she was belle
WTF Emma can sing better than Anna. She has a lot more dimension and range in her voice. That's why Anna's best fit for Trolls with her childlike poppy voice.
@@glopez48 girl be fucking serious lmao
CAN WE HAVE MORE OF YOU SINGNIG BEAUTY AND THE BEAST?! Give us a whole solo musical of just Belle's part pleaaaase!
❤️ Thanks for your endless love and support you have shown me. I’m forever grateful. I really appreciate your unconditional love and support towards me... Where are you watching from?
i fully agree about the auto tune on her voice- i think her voice is lovely and they took all the character out of her vocal performance and left it in on the ensemble and other performances so it makes her stick out really weirdly … it’s not bad it’s just weird
Thats confusing to me, because she's the main character so why is she not standing out?
Alan Menken's score for the animated Beauty & the Beast prologue will forever be my favorite song. I still remember sitting in a theater, at 4 years old getting goosebumps from it.
the prologue music will always be some of the best that there is, if there was a way to download it and remove the voice overs without messing up the music then I would.
@@MattZRJSRoxy to me it sounds like a riff off of the Camille Saint-Saëns piece Aquarium. I absolutely love them both!
@@88WWitch hadn't heard of that before so I looked it up and the beginning cues definitely sound similar, not quite the same since here they give you the feeling where crap is about to hit the fan.
Honestly, Hannah is absolutely underrated in terms of how funny she is. Her commentary absolutely kills me. *gasp* an iPad! Just hilarious lol
Your reaction to Belle getting hit with the snow ball... I literally laughed out loud... but sooo loud... I woke up the dog, and my teenager just came in trying to figure out if I was ok, lol. Seriously, I love your reactions...
The way they had to say "are you making jokes now?", because NO ONE in the world would have thought of it as a joke.
Also the theory that Belle is into monster romances is so good! 🤣 Thanks Hannah, this is gold!
I like Emma Watson but I think Emmy Rossum would've been a better choice to play Belle. She's great actress and is a trained singer.
Love this! Plus Emmy Rossum can act and Emma Watson can’t.
@@JMwhocares Have you not watched Harry Potter??
@@jessivietgirl and little women
YES OH MY GOD SHE WOULD'VE BEEN PERFECT
In this movie i mostly blame the directing, all the actors look bland af (except of course gaston).
You talking about the autotune really makes me want to see a live version of some of these songs.
I know Disney typically does a live performance night or celebration for certain movies and I am sure they did something for Beauty and the Beast
I agree! I have tried to find unedited versions of Emma watson singing
Beauty and the Beast was my all-time favorite Disney movie growing up. Belle radiated such strong energy and she was my favorite Disney princess. When Hannah says Belle is a feminist icon, I agree. I also feel like this was the reason that Emma Watson was chosen to play her - being a feminist icon herself. I just hate that they autotuned her.
Also Hannah, you should totally be a Disney princess. You missed out on being Belle or Ariel, but it's not too late to be Snow White. You have Snow White's perfect youthful face and porcelain skin. Which I feel are Snow her defining features.
snow white is in the making with rachel zegler :)
i'd love to see hannah's reaction to the anniversary production songs, mainly for joshua henry, h.e.r., and josh groban (also i specifically want to see her reaction to the beast suit)
After hearing Josh on the soundtrack singing “Evermore” and during the anniversary concert (and every other album he has released and hearing him in concert live), he’s the only acceptable Beast for me now. His voice is magical.
Joshua henry tho ❤
I absolutely want Hannah to experience Joshua Henry's Gaston.
And just him in general. His Agony? Great. His Jamie from L5Y? Marvelous.
I especially want her to react to Josh Groban singing the Beast's song.
Agreed! I absolutely love the 30th anniversary. Hannah really needs to react to it!
Personally, as someone obsessed with the cartoon version, I love this version. Were there some things I didn’t like, yeah, but they didn’t ruin it for me.
Totally feel that way too
Yeah it could’ve been worse. Could’ve just been a snooze fest like the Lion King remake.
OMG! Me too!
Lol I wish I could say the same. The way they over-explain details like the magic and try to “fix” things from the original that never needed to be fixed in the first place…I don’t like it. Like, we never needed an explanation about Belle’s mother. We already assumed she was dead. And we never needed an explanation for why the Beast was such an asshole. We just assumed he was a spoiled prince who got everything he wanted in life and was never told no. In this way, compared to the original, I actually think the live-action version insults the audience’s intelligence. You can ESPECIALLY see this in the song “Gaston” where LeFou tries spelling Gaston’s name. In the original, he tries, eventually gives up, and starts singing again, but in the live-action version, he literally spells out the joke by saying, “It just occurred to me that I’m illiterate and don’t know how to speeeelll…” and then I’m face-palming because thank you for spelling out the joke for us, we never would have gotten it otherwise. To me the movie comes across as rather emotionless and just a cash-grab, which I guess is what all the live-action remakes are haha
@@CEn2227 I feel like we didn't need the back story on Belle's mother, but I think it's a beauitiful addition to the story. Belle always asked about her mother and she finally got some answers. AND how does a moment last forever is a GORGEOUS song that we got from it! There are some parts im not a huge fan of, but belles mothers storyline was beautiful.
Hannah, thank you so much for this! I haven't laughed so hard in so long, and I entirely agree with all your reactions and opinions. Great job!!! 🥰
I feel like Hannah 100% would be a wonderful Disney Princess! Brains, beauty, and talent.
I ALWAYS recommend the UA-camr Sideways’ videos on this topic, particularly “The Music in the Live Action Disney Remakes is Worse Than You Thought” and “The Problem with Autotune”. He does a great job of digging into the difference between autotune and pitch correction and how ubiquitous it is in modern music. And his discussion of the Disney remakes is just so good!
Funnily enough, I have just finished watching that video when I saw Hannah uploaded this one. A very nice job by the algorithm.
I was going to mention this video too! It also explains why Luke Evans and Josh Gad sound so good without the "autotune" sound.
it's been a while since I watched the autotune video, and, frankly, it confused the heck out of me. So was Emma autotuned, or was she pitch corrected?
@@phAntasyluvr_04 My understanding is that either Disney didn’t like her performance or the way they filmed (with actors singing live along with their prerecorded vocals) made it impossible to match up the mouths to the singing, with either way resulting in a heavily over-produced sound that was likely pitch corrected (because everyone is) but was also blended from multiple tales and leaving a really artificial sound altogether. Autotune as we think of it is when artists like Cher or T-Pain use a plugin for an effect, not to cover up that they can’t sing, which is totally fine. But that’s different from editing together a track from several takes and picking the best notes, or slightly correcting an off note (pitch correction) which happens to basically everybody and when done well can’t be noticed at all.
So if all they were trying to do was pitch correct Emma Watson, they did a bad bad job because it’s so so obvious.
Yes! I love all of Sideway's stuff! His review of Beauty and the Beast gave me a broader perspective on what went wrong with some of the singing in this remake.
They should have casted Hannah bayles as Belle, this is her audition tape; she looks good in yellow, her voice is perfect, she deserves better
Yes 10000000000000000000000% agree 😍🥰💛
We went to see this on a school trip and when he growled at the end- I was laughing so hard, I got chest pains and genuinely thought I was dying 😂
Luke Evans is the best personification of Gaston to me. I LOVE HIM! Great performance. He's an amazing singer. His version of "If i could turn back time" IS PERFECT! Thanks for the video, Hannah. And your comments (I want that fanfiction now kkkkk)!
I really love Emma Watson, so I was exited about the whole movie thing, but when I came out of the cinema I was like: “ok, nice, but I don’t really wanna rewatch it” 😂
Also they made her dirty with this autotune, she has a pretty voice 😭
AND YOU LOOK AMAZING BTW
Luke Evans and the ensemble carried this movie vocally for me. There’s many amazing theatre in that group.
am I the only one who REALLY loves this movie????
You're not! It's literally one of my favs!
I love these videos! I was never into this movie either and listening to you just had me in a fit of giggles.
10:25
To be fair to the writers, the father stopping to get a rose like this is actually in the original story 😅
Also, some people kinda freeze and go mute when they’re scared. I know I do! 😊
I get why people don’t like this movie, but I also know I’ve liked it the more times I’ve watched it 🤷♀️
this movie had the same issue as the live-action Aladdin. they took so much of whimsy and color and fun out of these movies. and maybe Emma Watson can sing, but why Disney insists on casting "names" instead of singer/actors, i'll never know. i wish these live-actions would bring us something new, or at least match the quality of the original. i'd love to see your reaction to Aladdin as well 😬
it's worth noting that my biggest objection casting-wise is Emma Watson, similar to my feelings towards Russell Crowe as Javert in Les Mis
Mark, I completely agree. I think she is a terrific actor but she wasn't the right choice for Belle. They did a good job with the costume designs and the backgrounds. But with the unfolding of the story, the character's bonding/charisma is missing, and the songs are okay. But it would be great if Disney moved along and took a hiatus. While other filming companies create something original with new names and new faces, multi-talented singers, and actors for the parts being written.
thats why cinderella live action remains the best
there was a ridiculous amount of color in aladdin... did we watch the same movie? it's not a cartoon you know
@@arianeponicelli9115 the lighting and color palette for A Whole New World was super muted and dark… just took out some of the magic of that number imo
«It hits her in the face, she falls over, and he laughs» tbh I would’ve done the same
I agree that it wasn’t really the actors’ fault that the music was weird because Ewan McGregor talked about how he was trying to sing with a French accent reminiscent of the original, but was told not to do the French “r” sound.
The way Hannah feels about Belle and her singing is EXACTLY how I feel about Ansel Elgort in West Side Story. It's one of my favorite musicals of all time but I just can't listen to him sing Maria and One Hand, One Heart. He got upstaged by literally everyone else in that cast. Rachel Zegler, Ariana DeBose and the actor who played Riff were my favorite performances.
So basically I need Hannah to please do a reaction to West Side Story!
Mike Faist (Riff) was amazing! The charisma, I couldn't take my eyes off him!
Rachel Zegler was incredible, I’m literally in love with her
@@mallorycarpinski1160 yes I was blanking on his name but such an incredible performance!
I second that she should do WSS
I love this movie so much. I get people being upset about auto tune and the dress, but for me I think the other incredibly detailed costumes and characters and the added storyline all make up for it.
I love your reactions but as Downton Abbey fan, I have to say I was a little disappointed that you never mentioned Dan Steven's name. He's a really talented actor.
Samee
As an Audra MacDonald fan, I’m assuming that you have seen the version of Annie with her? It’s by far the best version made!
“Now I know she’ll never leave me, even as she runs away”, like she’ll never leave my heart and my mind. It’s not meant to be creepy.
I didn't know Audra Mcdonald was on the movie when I saw it in theater and I lost my SHIT when I saw her and heard her singing. I adore her so much.
So, I watch Private Practice (grey’s anatomy spin-off) and I never knew Audra McDonald could sing! Her act as Naomi really hides that fact.
When I heard her singing in this film, JUST NOW, I ran downstairs and ranted about how good of a singer she is to my Mother.
Wow, just wow.
I first knew her from PP too! But then I saw a couple of musicals with her and yeah. Now I wish they had done a musical episode of PP, they had Taye Diggs too!
"I know she'll never leave me..." Meaning in his heart
"Gaston" is literally the best villain song ever! I still loved this version of the movie, no matter what!
The way the French dub is actually better because they haven't autotuned the hell out of it at all... Emmylou Homs is amazing, she's the French version of Anna in Frozen too
Ooooh nice because the german dub was also autotuned like crazy- so sad
Hannah, YOU are hilarious. Your laughter made my day. Thanks :D One of the funniest reactions ever!
Can we just appreciate the outfit, the hair style is so cute!
Dan Stevens version of Evermore is my favorite. It gives me the feels every time. I think the dropping of his voice probably messed with it a bit on the sound, but still love it.
If you want more Beauty and the Beast, High School Musical: The Musical: The Series did the show for their second season and there are some fun performances of lots of the songs. "Home" is definitely a highlight!
YES YES
I third this ☝🏻
I was just thinking she should react to more HSMTMTS, cause I thinkbshe only did season 1. That would be perfect !
Don't sleep on If I Can't Love Her. Roman Banks SLAYED.
I was so busted when I realized they weren’t using the Broadway songs. I had never really LOVED the ideas of the live action remakes, but the one thing I wanted them to do was use the Broadway music. You have the advantage of these gorgeous songs created to tug on heartstrings and don’t use them, and as a result this was the first and last live action remake I chose to see. Evermore has the potential to be pretty (with less autotune) but it literally doesn’t need to exist.
If I Can’t Love Her is one of my favorite Broadway pieces of all time, it’s built off that main motif that was in the background music of the film so it fits perfectly, it was the first time a piece of live theater brought tears to my eyes when I saw it onstage. I just wanted to hear their take on it. In the end I’m kinda glad it wasn’t there since so little of the movie’s musical moments were memorable or high quality. On the plus side, Josh Groban has sung both songs now and I am SO happy with both of them. Two gorgeous songs when done by people who have the voice for them.
The cogsworth part in Be Our Guest teases the next Disney live action: Aladdin.
I really appreciated the Audra Mcdonald rant at the beginning because you are absolutely correct she is such an icon and this movie did her dirty we needed like 50 more songs for her... also have you ever seen her performance of Lily's Eyes with Kelli O'Hara at Miscast last year??? The sapphic vibes she added to that song were immaculate (and the vocals, obviously)
How I’m spending my night: watching Hannah Bayles videos, crying over how beautiful she is, while eating ice cream😮💨👏🏼
I need to make those my plans 🥰🍦🥹
14:22 the way I GASPED when Hannah's hair changed. IT LOOKS AMAZING
Belle seems to love and want to save the pots and everyone more then the beast 😂😅
I adored Emma Watson’s character in this!
About the Taj Mahal display at 14:06 - I think it's a reference to a shot from the climax of Moulin Rouge starring Ewan McGregor, who is voicing Lumiere in this movie.
Also wanted to share that I see how you're working so hard on healing, Hannah. I sense a gentle groundedness in your presence and celebrate that for you. 🌈
I thought it was a reference to Aladdin, along with the way Cogsworth is dressed. In the original animated Beauty and the Beast they did the same during the "Be our guest" song because Aladdin was the next Disney animated film to be released.
I thought they did it again here in the live action because live action Aladdin was going to be released after this film, in 2019
@@xwinwinwinx Good observations! Perhaps all are true :)
Remind me again why they needed a live action version of this... The original animated version was so good.
i loved this video with all of my heart since the first minute. i love your content! you make me laugh so much LMAO
Hannah saying "Papa" is all I came here for
I honestly really love this movie. I don’t really understand why a lot of people hated and or didn’t care for it when it came out. But I do love great live action remakes of classic movies especially a Disney Princess movie. Also can’t say enough times how much I hate Gaston. Love the videos! You do an amazing job!
I also love this movie and I love to hate Gaston!
i am so mad people keep saying they hate it. it’s such forced hate.
Tbh I don’t understand why people say it’s the worst Disney movie, I own this movie on dvd and watch it at least once a month
I'm obsessed with this movie. Can't even tell you how many times I've watched it.
I am so glad you pointed out you were in love with Gaston in this too! Now I don’t feel as weird about it! 😂
I’ve been avoiding watching this movie since it came out but I couldn’t pass up the chance to see it with your commentary and you did not disappointment 😂
I love love love Luke Evans in absolutely everything he does. He’s so good at being Gaston.
The scene where Belle went to see where she was born always makes me cry 😭 and Evermore is my favorite song in the entire movie
Just tossing this out there... Jonathan Young's cover of Evermore is freaking incredible. So since you seem to like the general sound of it, but not necessarily the performance, I highly recommend listening to his cover. Like. I was pretty meh on it in the movie, but Young's version is on my list of favorite songs.
OMG Yes I love Jonathan Young.
I love your videos Hannah. Keep them coming, and thank you 😏
If I’m correct, the reason why beast voice sounds very auto tuned when he sings it’s because they had to lower his voice to make it sound deeper for the Beast voice. Again if I’m correct, he sang it in the tenor key, and since they lowered his voice and put it in a baritone Key.
But why not just hire someone who can actually do it like they do for the stage version?
I honestly liked the scene were they went to Paris. It was a small moment that was pretty sweet for what it was. Plus it has the reprise of how does a moment last forever, which is great.
God i forgot how horrible the dress was… Like the Cinderella love action dress was beautiful so why the hell did they give Belle a party city dress😭
maybe when the beast sang "I know she'll never leave me even as she runs away" he means she will never leave his heart. idk just a thought i had. p.s. love your vids watching your makes me want to sing more, thanks for that
I literally watched this movie a week ago with my boyfriend and here you are with your reaction video about it, perfect timing 😆
Hannah, you should defenitely watch the 30th celebration version. It did what this movie couldn't. The voices are amazing, it has strong musical theater vibes and HER DRESS! Even if you hate the whole thing, you cannot hate the dress! It's a freaking jumpsuit with an amazing cape and it is so smooth- PLS HANNAH!
Edit: Also we have Josh Groban as the Beast.
Is it on Disney +?
it was meh
I looked it up. Hate the pant suit.... I'm tired of all this feminist bullcrap... just put her in a freaking dress.
@@britanyenglish-levesque2522yes it’s on Disney plus
@@britanyenglish-levesque2522 I think so
I love how honest u are ❤
I knew you wouldn’t disappoint but my goodness you went above and beyond my expectations. I knew you were going to have a whole lot to say about this movie but I did not expect half of what you said.
This makes me want to start finding terrible movies, and TV shows with musicals just to see how much more entertaining you can be😂
I'll be honest, people LOVE to hate on this movie for very silly reasons (nitpicking hard), but I actually LOVE it! I think they did an amazing job, really! Yes, I love Emma Watson on the role (she was lovely); yes, I think her final dress is beautiful (!) and yes, I love all the songs in it, including the new ones made just for this movie. I feel like nowadays people just love to hate on things, honestly. People find many reasons to dislike everything in sight and it's a shame.
I agree! People love the hate! I did not like this reaction
