The casting scares me, though, especially after Sweeney Todd.
Yeah. ITW is, I understand, very hard to sing. And it had better be sung, or what's the point?
So, how was your summer? Mine was fun. Saw some fish. Went mad with hunger. Hallucinated a whole bunch.

Buffista Movies 7: Brides for 7 Samurai
A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
Belle and the villagers' song, where she's singing about her books and the poor provincial town, and the villagers are all "She's nothing like the rest of us" is hands-down my favorite song. I almost put it on my 2012 playlist.
I love this song, also the entire rest of the movie. It's my favorite of the Disney princess movies.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."
I would thnk Sweeney is harder to sing than ITW, FWIW.

Gaston was ruined for me because I worked at a children's theatre summer camp, and the theme was multiculturalism. The director had them sing a song she had written to the tune of Gaston-
"No one's nice like Iceland
No one's ice like Greenland
No ones' food is incredibly rice like Thailand".
It was awful

Woe to the fucking wicked.
I agree with Dana, and not (I think) just because I learned it first.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
My objections to B&B and clearly I am alone in this is that they messed with the original fairy tale to such an extent that many of the original themes were lost.
They added a weird Frankenstein element where the town came after Beast with torches and IIRC this weird love triangle.
I just ddnt appreciate it at all.

Holy shit, that is bad. It makes my head hurt!

The Sweeney movie was okay but the music was not the strong point.
