Thatâs literally all that there is to it! Have fun!
First Disney Movie? Little Mermaid. It came out the same year I was born, but I believe my parents waited until it came out on VHS to have me watch it... I do however, actually *remember* watching Toy Story in theatres as a kid, whereas I donât recall Little Mermaid until I was older.
Favourite Disney Princess Movie (Besides BATB or Itâs Remake)? Tangled. Itâs a wonderfully sunny movie full of great songs, and Flynn is freaking awesome.
Favourite Disney Princess (Besides Princess Belle)? Kida! Wait why doesnât she count oh yeah your movie wasnât a musical sorry girl  Rapunzel. Artist-dreamer-optomist-with long hair? Yeah, I get you girl. You get your dream. Get it for both of us.
Favourite Non-Princess Disney Movie? Treasure Planet. Or maybe The Great Mouse Detective. Both are super under-rated and super fun!
Favourite Disney Song? âAfter Todayâ from A Goofy Movie. It never ceases to put a smile on my face! (If weâre going traditional Disney classics, then probs the Belle Reprise. Because the feels!)
Non-Disney Related Fandom? Harry Potter, Labyrinth (it occurs to me how many of my fandoms are Disney movies or TV shows)
One Random Fact About You? While everyone and their cousin knows I am obsessed with penguins, my other favorite animals include bats and giant anteaters. And griffins, except theyâre mythological.
Whatâs your favourite moment from the BatB 2017 live action and why? I loved Evermore in its entirety (just, superb cinematic and symbolic moments there I could gush about for paragraphs) but also the bit where Belle asks what Beast is reading, and he gets all flustered and is like âNo, itâs King Arthur! Swords and fighting and definitely not a love story!â Oh no wait, scratch that. Ultimate fangirl moment for me was when they put that âDo you think you could grow a beard?â line into the final bit of the movie. I smacked my husband on the leg like fifteen times squealing âYES YES YES they put it in, they put it in!!â
Who is your favourite Disney villain and why? Professor Padriac Ratigan. Not only is he voiced by the late, great Vincent Price, but heâs also animated by Glen Keane! And who doesnât love a rat âmouseâ based on Professor Moriarty?
What (if any) is your favourite piece of fan-media for BatB (original or 2017)? Can be fanvid, a song, a fanfic, etc.
@a-lost-illusion mentioned the fanart that shows what Adam was actually doing while Beast was stomping around (hereâs another example:Â http://doomymouse.deviantart.com/art/Beast-Prince-Adam-Difficult-81662781), which is what I was gonna say! So Iâll also throw in Lindsey Stirlingâs fantastic BatB medley, because I love her work:Â https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X-AjhXhk19U
My Question: Which BATB character do you identify with the most and why? Belle. I know itâs corny, but I always felt super out of place in school and I loved to read. I was always the girl who knew mythology and all these crazy cryptids, liked Disney way too much... But Belle likes who she is and doesnât apologize. She owns it. And sheâs freaking beautiful too, you know? (And itâs funny, but my husband acts a lot like Beast/Adam and itâs one of those cosmic-aligning weird soul mate things that I canât even pretend isnât for realzies. Thumbs up, universe, thumbs up.)
I donât know if I have anyone to tag, so whoever wants it, have at it!
