    Storyline

    Edit

    Did you know

    Edit
    • Trivia
      The flashback scene where the Prince is transformed into the Beast was the original idea for the prologue for Beauty and the Beast (1991), as suggested by lyricist Howard Ashman.
    • Goofs
      Chip makes it sound as if he's never experienced a Christmas before, though we see him in flashback (human form) celebrating Christmas Eve with the castle staff. He was already at least five years old when he was enchanted.
    • Quotes

      [looking out the window]

      Fife: Wow! Will you look at that!

      Forte: Well, I think I might. I'll just pick myself up and... oh! What's this? Heavens! I'M BOLTED TO THE WALL!

    • Alternate versions
      When the film was re-released on Blu-Ray and DVD in 2011, the following edits for the remastered version brought some small changes from previous releases of the film:
      • The film is matted to a 16:9 widescreen format, while the original release was in a 1.33:1 aspect ratio.
      • In the opening scene, the speed of the waterfall goes fast in the original release, where as in the later release, the waterfall's speed has been reduced.
      • When Belle sings "It'll stay up until July...", in the original release, the camera is at a Dutch angle, where as in the later release, it is straight.
      • When Forte introduces himself to Belle ("I am Maestro Forte, court composer...") the sound appears to be slightly out of synchronization and there is a slight pause focusing on the steps before the camera pans up to Forte.
      • When Forte shouts "I THINK NOT!" there is a keyhole cutaway when the camera zooms out, in the earlier releases, there is none.
      • The Keyboard scenes are in animated after they were CGI in the earlier releases.
      • The Christmas angel on the tree at the end of the flashback is replaced by one resembling Angelique.
      • The end credits are golden yellow like the end credits of the first movie instead of chalk white like in the earlier releases.

    Serves a purpose as a film to watch during festive times

    Who knew 'Beauty and the Beast' had not one, not two, but three follow-up films? I certainly didn't!

    'Beauty and the Beast: The Enchanted Christmas' is pretty tame and plain compared to the original, with the plot feeling like a retread for the majority. It still holds up for an OK viewing experience, but probably doesn't need to exist.

    It is, however, terrific to see the same cast involved again, from Paige O'Hara (Belle) to Jerry Orbach (Lumière) to Angela Lansbury (Mrs. Potts). They are just as good as before, though the same can't be said for the animation which is more on the average side in my opinion; especially for the villain, Forte (Tim Curry), who I didn't really enjoy.

    The premise is quite boring, with all the drama being easy to predict given what happens in the first film. I suppose this serves a purpose as a film to watch during festive times, as an added titbit to the 1991 production. A proper sequel would've been nicer.
