Disney has another one in that Top 30 ever list! jeeeez! that's a heck of a lot, I knew it would do well but didn't expect that much money to be taken at the box office. Do we think the next one will get this much money ? I think Aladdin and Lion King are the next ones getting the modern treatment.

I expect The Lion King to do even better, especially if they do end up getting Beyonce as Nala.

Finally saw this today. Adored it! Visually and vocally stunning. Loved Emma Watson as Belle. I've finally see her play a character other than Hermione Granger! The new songs were the highlights for me. Especially How Does A Moment Last Forever and Evermore. Loved how they used Home as an instrumental underscore. Emma Watson, Dan Stevens, Emma Thompson and Audra McDonald were my highlights. Luke Evans has a wonderful voice too. I hope we'll see the show on a stage again soon, preferably with Sam Barks or Jess Daley as Belle.

Generally I hate the concept of Disney, and this is part of the reason. This cultural monster, flattening everything in it's past. "Disneyfication" is one of the single worst things to have happened to the arts.

I saw this a couple of weeks ago, and loved it! I'm sure I am going soft in my (not so) old age. Vocally, I didn't think it was the strongest, and certainly Emma Watson is no singer, but she sure than made up for it in her overall performance. I thought she was magnetic in this - feisty, touching, and I had fallen in love with her by the end of the film. This is from someone who always thought that she wasn't a particularly good actor. It also looks visually stunning, and I agree that the new songs are beautiful. Alan Menken can write a tune!
Yes, it is schmaltzy and predictable, but that is the Disney brand.

I finally saw it. Thought it was pretty in a lot of parts, but otherwise ice cold. It was one long screen saver with all the ridiculous CGI.
