If you can call it that, since I was sort of dragged.Andrew Leonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13964775673414653644noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7658526372996117205.post-46819224212976875472017-04-03T19:52:34.507-07:002017-04-03T19:52:34.507-07:00Jeanne: Actually, I think it kind of is.

I understand casting Emma Watson as she's a big name but you know there is an army of talented actresses out there who could have knocked those songs out of the park without any tech help. I guess auto-tune is the 21st century's Marni Nixon (RIP, one of 2016's under appreciated losses).The Armchair Squidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10739833215220853127noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7658526372996117205.post-41462046258501873802017-04-02T11:10:42.539-07:002017-04-02T11:10:42.539-07:00I went with my grown-up daughter to see it.

The thing I remember most about the original is how my 6 year old son was terrified by the scene where the wolves attacked the Beast.Susan Gourley/Kelleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02669793865290876168noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7658526372996117205.post-29770307242367448372017-03-31T13:06:38.723-07:002017-03-31T13:06:38.723-07:00I suppose it's not a coincidence that it's...I suppose it's not a coincidence that it's coming out now, as people my age who saw it when it came out now have children who can go see the remake. Personally, I think the original held up to the test of time better than this one will.J E Oneilhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09780097298061829471noreply@blogger.com
