Kill the Beast - Beauty and the Beast (1991)

[gocody8080]

actually, although young kids are much more prone to poor judgement, they are also much more open-minded and capable of thinking outside of the box. old people, on the other hand, although very level-headed, have reached a point where they stop processing new information and basically just react to things in the way they were raised to feel as a child. thus, a balance between the two must be reached.

[VaguePudge]

manly guys sing, YESSS!

[SolitaireMasta]

We don't like what we don't...

understand and in fact it scares us,

and this monster is mysterious at least.

Bring your guns, bring your knives,

save children and and your wives,

so save our village and our lives!

This illustrates human nature so well! Most people fear what they don't understand and so they seek it's destruction. Like how teenagers react to "weirdos" and thus cast them out of society.

[loura246]

and u would think common sense would tell them that singing while trying to ambush someone wont work...

[loura246]

did anyone else notice they sang at 1:50 "but we don't understand it and it scares us"

basic human nature

ahhh Disney :)

[Shadoboy]

@loura246 Eyup. The actual line is "We don't like what we don't understand, it fact it scares us" which is really humanity in a nutshell.

[btrjamesmaslow11]

I really like this part and the song too. :)

[MrSMBRULEZ]

no one give's a shit like gaston

[RabiesBunny]

At this point, Gaston just gave no shit.

[TheDATotallyAwesome]

And Gaston wonders why Bell refuses to marry him.

[FNGLHR]

Gaston's thought process: If I kill her boyfriend then she'll have to marry me!

[reallyweirdable]

My school is doing this play and im Gaston. This helped me learn the song better. Thanks!!

[TheInstantClassic1]

I know what you're ALL thinking and the answer is yes; they fail....miserably

[891natalie]

I love

This and my school is doing a play in this

[kayleighcolfer]

I hate Gaston, but this song is catchy.

[salmon1pwns]

Gaston was the true cause of the french revolution. This was just the beginning.

[heathmoor]

I don't know, but this is the only Disney movie of the last 30 years that is worth to watch.

[TheycallmeFumbles]

0:23 once they returned to the village not only did they lose to furniture, but they burnt down their own village, this my friends, only the French can accomplish.

[banana8431]

At 0:12 you can see that it almost looks like Gaston's happy

[msmissjordan1]

why does this song reminds me of "savages" from Pocahontas?

[soccer7539518246]

@msmissjordan1  lol did you really have to ask ;)

[SlayersBlessings]

@msmissjordan1 well it is in the references to the right

[Veeshlayer]

2:22 "Who's with me?! HA HU" ahhaha i love his jerkiness reaction when he saw that the others left him behind

[SwampTheGamingGator]

Yes Gaston lets burn the village down. That will surely accomplish something.

[HannaOlsen94]

"Take whatever booty you can find but the beast is mine!" ... why does that still make me giggle?

[TheycallmeFumbles]

I listen too this song when I go killing trolls and vampires in Skyrim

[lalala36026]

"But remember: the beast is MINE!" That line always gives me chills

[mistycandy]

"I knew it, I new it." I love how Cogsworth says 'knew'. It's just so awesome :)

[ankarionxxy]

only the french could lose a fight to furniture :D

[fhsfiddleboy09]

@ankarionxxy BAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!



[TheLockon00]

@ankarionxxy Yup. They fight with their feet and make love with their faces. lol.

[mortelkill]

@ankarionxxy not if the furniture are in soviet russia

[BesaOtaku]

@ankarionxxy I just laughed like a maniac! Bravo!

[SolitaireMasta]

@ankarionxxy I think the furniture is french too.

[mazeman90]

@SolitaireMasta Mrs. Potts and Cogsworth are English, giving them an advantage :D

[SolitaireMasta]

@mazeman90 Good point. 

[BlackSpittingCobra]

@ankarionxxy well not in real life the french were vicious fighters and when they stood with the scots,irish,welsh and danish against the english they were menacing opponents

[mailgod89]

@ankarionxxy luminare is french



[neilpete]

becuz u know what's ironic about this movie that i just figured out is that as the movie drags on the beast is turning more and more human, but gaston is turning more and more beastlike.

[fhsfiddleboy09]

@neilpete "Who is the monster and who is the man?"

[Stridus7]

MARCH TO JUSTIN BIEBER'S HOUSE

[paulavictoria96]

its curious at 0:38 they look at the fangs but not at te sad and human blue eyes

[NightFiron]

I actually like Gaston even if he is a asshole but I wouldn't mind having him to defend my town =P

[TigsAndKizzii]

Am I the only one who finds it difficult to sing this song in my head without switching to "Be Prepared" from Lion King? Some parts of the song are so similar!

[Blackemperess]

funny how they dont stop and wonder how their population remained so steady if they were sacrificing their kids to the beast and letting him run off with their wives. At least, not until they became aware of it's existence.

Gotta give Disney props, they make music you never forget. :D

[srJak]

It would be so intense to be part of an angery mob like this. lol

[brycepatties]

2:00 "hide yo kids, hide yo wife."

[Zog455]

Only ugly people join angry mobs

[mazeman90]

@Zog455 Not true, Gaston's in it. If you don't believe that he's handsome, watch his song.

[vDeltaGamingv]

The beast disliked this

[joe88john]

"We don't like what we don't understand, in fact it scares us"

It's like their singing about the world as we know it

[N3v34h133]

Whoa. Whoa whoa whoa. 1:11 "Screw your courage to the sticking place."

Whaaaaat ?

[soundslikeabiscuit]

@N3v34h133 It's Shakespeare (from Macbeth). It basically means to be obstinate and courageous.

[IrreverantReverend]

"Fifty Frenchmen can't be wrong" hehe what about the Euro.

[TheCookiemonster5576]

wait Gaston !!! wanna have an exciting ride with me ....

[ramenhouse22]

did he say "take whatever booty u can find, but remember the beast is mine? lol

[CheesymanGAT]

I'd like a new top comment please?

[velvetsnape]

Gaston is freakin' hot. Too bad he's a douche...

[abridgedfan9578]

You'd think they'd wonder that if a beast was there this whole time why hadnt it terrorised them in the first.

[Secretivedude42]

@rikurep nobody ever came or went from the castle so over the years they forgot it was there

[Secretivedude42]

You got some of the lyrics in the description wrong. It's we're counting on gaston to lead the way not your stud. Likewise we don't like what we don't understand IT FRANKLY scares us. And it's a beast ONE as tall as a mountain, and finally SALLEY forth tally ho not steady forth. Just the big ones I saw. This is one of my favorite childhood songs so I know it pretty well

[Oregateau]

Why didn't we sing this more often when raiding on WoW?

[thelionkinglover185]

VHS Quality Rules!

[usukatlifegodiekthx]

Is this an allegory to the Iraq war?

[Give1Take2]

@usukatlifegodiekthx Considering it was made ten years before the Iraq war was started, I doubt it.

[usukatlifegodiekthx]

@Give1Take2 Wow good thing you pointed that out the "1991" didn't give it away.

[HorseCrazieGirl15]

i remember the only part i liked about this song was the horse xD

[rikurep]

Its kind of a wonder why no one remembers that a prince lived up there if it's so close to the village.

[kaila900]

@rikurep right? i mean they clearly know where he lives

[soundslikeabiscuit]

@rikurep yes, that's the least realistic part of this movie.

[humoronwheels87]

@rikurep Well, for all we know (it's not described in any explicit terms from what I recall) the beast may have been unnaturally long-lived, so these Frenchmen might not have been alive when the Prince was still human. The origins of the castle and the Beast inside it might have just faded into legend, and they probably didn't go into the forest very much being a superstitious lot. And from the prologue I personally gather that even as a human, the Prince probably wasn't very well liked

[mistycandy]

@humoronwheels87 In the prologue, it also says "When the rose wilts on his 21st year..." I always wonder if they aged while enchanted though.

[rikurep]

@humoronwheels87 Thats actually a theory i can find valid.

You sir, win at disney.

[Kamkam112211]

@rikurep

Well they had enough time to get a tree. It can't be too close.

[swiggy3000]

@rikurep Part of the curse maybe.

[JackTheRipper4ever]

@rikurep its assumed he died.

[nekozombie0]

@rikurep I've always wondered that too...And where are his parents during all this you think they'd get worried that they haven't heard from their son in so long(I'm assuming maybe he lived in a different castle when he got old enough to help rule?)

[BelgaraththeSorceror]

I thought that you should know that some of the lyrics that you have written are incorrect. for example, it's not "your stud to lead the way." it's "Counting on Gaston to lead the way."

[CanadaAndKumajiro]

The lyrics in their song now that I look back at them are so powerful and true its almost scary.

[Link504]

We are fifty frenchmen strong and fifty frenchmen can't be wrong!

...Tell that to Nazi Germany. I dare you.

[93taitrtot]

sac're bleu

[GracePearl]

didn't take them long to get there..

[TheSeanRules2]

I wish they got lost...

[ix3bumblebeetuna]

i found 2:20 to be amusing :)

[OkamiGohan]

1:09 "Screw your courage to the sticking place!"

Isn't that what Lady MacBeth said all the time? :D I Alan Menken's music + Tim Rice's lyrics. Putting freaking Shakespeare into our children's movies. I miss the old Disney so much it hurts-

[TheCookiemonster5576]

Suc me bleu invaderz

[kookyinthecoconuts]

aha i was watching the original frakenstien and when the villagers went to teh windmill My mom said they needed music and i started singing this!

[neofire10]

@kookyinthecoconuts Very awesome. :D

[TheCookiemonster5576]

one exciting ride gaston.....am i the only one felling scared

[ProblmSolvd]

@ExilLarkdanx Most definitely the french, they said the same thing in 1940!

[musiclover011298]

I know Gaston is the villian and all but he's a pretty good singer

[MewMewFireHeart]

1:51-1:57 "We don't like what we don't understand in fact it scares us and this monster is mysterious at least."

I love this line. It describes how the majority of people and society approaches the unknown. Just look at all the myths and stories focused on death and the dark.

[Megatron2100]

@MewMewFireHeart More than anything it reminds me of the line in "Savages" where Radcliffe says "They're not like you and me, which means they must be evil".

[DragonofShu]

Hate for the unkown si created because of tow reasons. Unreasonable fear for it. And some tiems even jealously, to the thought of that the unknown could be better than them, they hate it.

[231thedream]

my brother and i use to giggle and/or laugh hysterically at the part where gaston said "take whatever booty you can find"

[thegeezerdan]

I wonder what month this film come out the year was 1991 but i dont know what month it was out.

[231thedream]

@thegeezerdan November 22, 1991The budget was $25 million and it earned 15 times more than that. Amazing, huh?

[thegeezerdan]

@231thedream Thanks for telling me the month.

[Flameswipe]

Old Disney movies like this weren't just magical and enchanting. They had a MESSAGE. It's a pity that that message has been lost in the mainstream movies and consumer products. Now it's all, "Hey everyone, come see this movie because it has a hot/popular person!" -shakes head- There's nothing like the classics nowadays.

[Winnersdonthavecows]

"There is no justice like angry mob justice"- The Simpsons.

That asside, isn't anyone else concerned about the fire started in their village before they left to slay the beast lol.

[Marxak666]

Isn´t gaston´s horse like the same "Frollo" used in "Hunchback" (How is spelled??).

[Sharonstarfan]

this song is call the mob song...but why it say it is cal kill the beast??

[guepardomorado88]

Make you wonder who the "beast" really was...I vote for this mob.

[KellithV]

Gaston looks a lot like Elrond but with a super-clefted chin.

[Strobertat]

Fear mungers... they'll never stop.

[AnimeRoxorz13]

1:50 this simple line pretty much speaks for the entire human race.

[nibblesfan]

0:26-0:50 sounds a bit like Arabian Nights from Aladdin. Does anyone else agree????

[blackmumba111]

@nibblesfan

Technically Arabian Nights would sound like this because this came out first, but I agree.

[HPTKGL1096]

People in the theaters would've been like 'holy shit he is gonna die!!!! '

[bleepbloop181]

Every politician ever.

[Thumper17]

This song is so hardcore.

[xX99SilentShadowsXx]

@TherealRNO ahhh ok :3

[TherealRNO]

So really, t'was Beauty who killed The Beast in the original, but things right themselves once she returns and says the three magic words, causing the transformation back from Beast to handsome Prince. And Jasque gets his just deserts, whilst the father becomes prosperous again courtesy of the Prince's riches, and the sisters...well...they are still envious that Belle/Beauty would be happiest of them all.

[TherealRNO]

Of course, Jasque was massively jealous, as were Beauty's sisters, since they wanted Jasque to notice them, but he only saw Beauty as the one for him, even if he was a selfish, self-centered idiot. In the end, the sisters and Jasque convince Belle/Beauty to stay longer for their father's sake (and in some versions--like the Grim Fairy Tales' anime--the father actually dies), resulting in the "death" of The Beast.

[TherealRNO]

Disney rewrote the story to give tension between The Beast & Belle (the name was a literal translation), for in the original, The Beast barely saw Belle/Beauty at all, only coming at night to ask if she would marry him, to which she refused, until she became attracted to him later in the story. Despite this, when her father fell ill, she wished to leave. The Beast allowed this on the condition that she would return within a week or so, lest he die of a broken heart.

[TherealRNO]

The Beast minded the theft, because the rose symbolized the only good thing left of The Beast's past before the transfiguration. He basically said, "I fed you, give you all that you require, and this is how you repay me? Steal my precious roses?" Of course, the father tried to barter with the creature, but then The Beast said, "If your daughter is so beautiful that she only desires a rose, perhaps she wouldn't mind taking the place of the rose you stole to please her." This started the story.

[DragonHumanoid]

I love chip!!

[Luvlindsey1998]

I love this song

[Luvlindsey1998]

im in this sence in this play and its hella fun

[shannyflips88]

Holy crap Disney what's happened to you??? You used to make epic villan songs like this that made everyone cringe now... well, there isn't very much to cring about. The villans aren't even as cool :(

[MrTallDaddy]

Watch the video "World's Craziest Disney World Audition!!!!!" It's hilarious!!!! This crazy guy tries out for gaston!!!! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

[springdale122583]

The beast farted

[eddievaliant1]

Gaston is very cruel in this scene

[shikamaru335]

0:25 "It's time to follow meee!"

yes Gaston, lets burn our own village. what a brilliant idea!

[NPC514]

@shikamaru335 What part of this movie gave you the idea that Gaston could think rationally?

[BigBirdBigM]

Bella was so Serious when she was sayin let us out:)

[animeloverforlife44]

This song gives me the chills!

[KeystaffMaster]

"Take whatever booty you can find!"

;D

[pinkllama16]

These scene reminds me of the theme of Hunchback of Notre Dame-- who is a monster, and who is a man?

[chocoholic718]

A few things:

I love how Gatston's all "screw this hay!" and torches it without a second thought.

But i find it weird that one minute Lefou is running behind women's dresses and the next he's all tough marching into the woods. Who else laughed at his face?

[n00bplayer]

"50 frenchmen can't be wrong!"

Sure thats true, but a few hundred sentient household objects undeniably can't be wrong either!

[chocoholic718]

Hide yo kids, hide yo wife

[ProblmSolvd]

@chocoholic718 Cuz hes TnT, Dynamite!

[mikstaslaya]

Hide ya kids, hide ya wife, and hide ya husbands cause the beast is rappin everybody out here

[ashleymae808]

Booty, hehe (:

[xX99SilentShadowsXx]

just thought of this. But maybe the reason he wants to kill beast is because he saw his human form before the spell. And he thinks beast looks better then him so thats why he wants to kill him =w=

[TherealRNO]

@xX99SilentShadowsXx: No. Gaston is just a male chavinist fool. Even in the original French tale, Jasque with Avelant (his Lefou) would be no better. Jasque even broke into the castle to steal the Beast's riches, but do the magic, thanks to the transformation, whilst The Beast became the Prince once more, Jasque ironically turned into a Beast as a reflection of his own selfish ways. So it's almost as if the story restarts again. XD

[TherealRNO]

In the original tale, Beauty's sisters would be what the Bimbettes are in the Disney version. The father would instead be a wealthy merchant trader who lost all his wealth in overseas accidents as opposed to struggling inventor. It was Beauty who requested a red rose in the dead of winter, thus spurring on the story, with her father ending up at The Beast's castle, taking a garden rose, hoping the master of the castle who generously fed him wouldn't mind, but apparently, The Beast did mind...

[Gorgotua]

No one rallies a mob like Gaston!

[secseebaybee]

save yo children and yo wives! :D

[TwiliPrincessWolf]

Sadly, I don't think wooden objects would stand up very well against swords and axes. :(

[zeldafan1515]

do they know they're doing this to their king?

[Midnaxznt]

@zeldafan1515

probably not considering none of them look old enough to remember what happened 10+ years ago. And The prince wasn't exactly popular even when he was human so I don't think they care ;p

[kinneybaby83]

only thing that really bugged me about this movie... its "the beast".... doesn't he at least get a name? :(

[LeesaLovely331]

@kinneybaby83 His name is Prince Adam... >_>

[TheTrojanTiger]

@kinneybaby83 His curse probably detailed that he couldn't reveal who he was... Or he felt ashamed of his past. So the beast became his name.

[kinneybaby83]

@TheTrojanTiger Wow! that's actually the best explanation I have ever heard... wish I thought of it.... (:

[PrincessPrincess2010]

wait... how did they know where beasts castle was?

[needleeater1]

Lumiere/Cogsworth happens soon after this

How much do you bet that if this film had been produced now they would have taken it out because of fear of being 'racist' or something stupid like that?

[CaptainAlbedoCool]

If Gaston has a gun... why would he take a bow and arrows to go into a fight?

Still love these old Disney movies, though.

[comprimiser]

this was the good disney

[monny287]

"We don't like what we don't understand/in fact, it scares us, and this monster is mysterious at least" I love that line. So funny!

[TheDrWeirdo]

I love angry mobs, in particular ones made of farmers, like the one here.

[kikihappy54]

Basically the same thing as invaders.

[pokeloon15]

any idea what encroachers means?

[marvolomethod]

shitty thing is some people have once thot about me like this once not killing, but, , lol, , , , (tom riddle smerk)

[marvolomethod]

this is really sad sheesh..................

[danitiwa]

1:37 omg Belle just break the fucking window with the wooden pole haha.

[WisconsinRebals2010]

I am suprise that nobody wondered where Gaston was because he never came back to the villiage and everyone loved this guy and they never saw his body after he fell off the castle.

[baglady26]

this was 1 of my fav movies as a kid

[Urcheon]

Isn't Gaston the hero of this movie?

[Gralind]

@Urcheon No, not really. He's actually the villain. I mean... come on.. Hero :p? He's a total asshole.

[Urcheon]

@Gralind But he's totally butch and he's an awesome singer! He's way better than that hairy Beast.

[Idoglover4]

you got that right

[TheKInKmn]

um no he dies at the end he trys to kill the beast

[Ksupy247]

In disney movies, the bad guys got good songs! LOL

[mdfiend22]

take whatever booty you can find! hahahahahahaha

[tiggerlover41]

Like the song but hate the point of the song

[RoseBurgundy]

Great, beautiful scene, and very evocative description of mob mentality.

[BlitzChaos09]

So does the setting take place in France?

[MysteryWriter22]

Yes.

[Joeyc2996]

We're counting on Gaston to lead the way.
