My childhood was not ruined!

Rating: 10/10 (5 June 2017)

I have re-watched this in theaters this weekend, so I come fresh with this movie in mind.
Having said that, my perception of this movie has not changed. I will also add that this story was my favorite Disney story growing up. Having watched it twice now, my experience has remained the same. I still got lost in the story, the imagery, the music, and the singing.
The plot was almost completely the same as that of the cartoon version, with a few additions. I very much loved these new additions as they added depth to the story and closed some plot holes. It also helped to better establish the relationship between Belle and the Beast.
P.S. Loved the gay millisecond! I don't know what all the fuss was about.
