was thinking about disney this morning, mainly about books in beauty & the beast.
the beast gives belle a library.
Is this an awesome romantic gesture?
or does he just have a big old library that's been handed down thru generations that he isn't really that interested in?
does the beast read? it'd be nice if he did, they'd have something more in common then...
also, what does belle read anyway, i dunno how to make this point without sounding like a booksnob, but looking thru the first song she seems to read jack & the beanstalk, and Cinderella. lots about prince charming. (or so she sings to the sheep) her book also contains pictures. fair does etc, but i wonder what the deal is with her apparently being so clever when she reads only fairy tales and oldskool chicklit.
i kinda hoped belle would be reading about something else. i dunno what...
and i wish she would stop singing about how her villiage is full of simple little people. stfu belle.
that said, it might be the 'best' disney princess film.. erk i will have to think on that.
i always liked mulan, but i am now scared to watch it again in case i notice shit like outlined above.... it would ruin it :-(
