The Original ‘Beauty And The Beast’ Gets A Brutally Honest Trailer

Disney’s live-action Beauty And The Beast is in theaters this weekend, so Screen Junkies has produced a timely honest trailer for the 1991 animated original version. It’s a tale as old as time. You know, the tale where an eleven year old is cursed, turns into a beast, then kidnaps a bookworm ten years later to force her to love him. Hate when that happens.

The honest trailer raises questions about the plot and warns of the perils of Stockholm Syndrome. They also call Belle “the first millennial” and deftly remake some of the songs with accurate new lyrics, like this one to the tune of “Be Our Guest”:

Go ahead

Stuff your face

We are both stuck in this place

We got here with no idea

We’d turn into an IKEA

There’s no breaks

There’s no pay

And we’re trapped in here all day

Just because my boss was a dick

I become a French candlestick

None of us

Deserved it

Our poor friend the toilet

That guy used to be a restaurant maitre d’

Now for the 10 years passed

He only sees Beast’s ass

I must confess

We are oppressed

Get snapped in half if we protest

We’re so stressed

And depressed

Let us rest!

It’s probably best not to think too much about the plot holes and the nightmarish implications of this movie.
