Mmmm.
Mmmmmhmmmmmm.
Mmmmmhmmmmmm.
Matching proportions I guess?Belle wasn't even that endowed was she? Emma will be fine if she can sing.
dat ass and gams doh
And all wearing loincloths and body paint.
Lame live-action fairy tales movies we've had recently:
Alice in Wonderland
Snow White and the Huntsman
Mirror Mirror
Jack the Giant Slayer
Hansel And Gretel
Maleficent
Red Riding Hood
Why is this going to be any different?
I now need to wash off the filthy realization that I've watched most of these for some inexplicable reason.

She's done Broadway hasn't she?
Maleficent was alright.
Even Mirror Mirror i didn't outright hate (though it wasn't good).
I'm just surprised Emma Watson can find the time to pencil Disney in. One would think with all the waves she's been making that her dance card was already full. I guess sleep is overrated though. And money's always good.
...
Anyway, good for her. I feel similarly about this as I do about Gracepoint. (Weird comparison, but go with me here...) It seems redundant and irrelevant, but if they really want to pay an actor I greatly admire to do it, then more power to them.

Hansel and Gretel was probably the most enjoyable one. It was surprisingly gory.

The best part of Mirror Mirror was Armie Hammer.
I was really surprised by how fun that movie was. Just stupid, silly fun.

This habit of remaking the fairytales is wack as shit, but yeah Hermionie and Belle are like fries and mayo.
Blue is the Warmest Color girl and Irreversible dude .... hard to top
And don't forget the crap twilight version of beauty and the beast that the "beast" was basicaly a dude with cool tatoos =P

You're a monster harry
I think the best part of this post is calling Rupert Grint by his character name.
I don't even remember her being that bad in Noah, just overacting a bit in a couple of scenes.
I think she's a cool person and could work well as Belle. It's a bit amusing due to the Hermione parallel too.

I was confused when I saw this news since there was a thread or two about 3 years ago about her already being cast. But I guess that was for Del Toro's movie, or when it was uncertain which she would end up with.

That's not a potential topless role.
Belle also has an adventurous personality. In the few different roles I've seen Watson outside of Potter I still don't see her as a good fit for Belle. Using her name power is a mistake.
He's got the look but not the personality.
Kevin Sorbo would honestly be a better Gaston. It's really sad Hercules turned out to be a smug asshole.
Isn't his IMDB page now officially Weasley?

Oh, so will Disney now just start doing live action versions of all their animated films? Apparently making animated versions of old fairy tales wasn't unoriginal enough.

I didn't expect so many people to get up in arms about my comment. I am primarily referring to Emma Watson's boy-ish face and figure. She would make a great Naoto in a Persona movie. However, I also think she lacks feminine charm and elegance. Belle is probably my favorite Disney princess, so this is a particularly irksome miscast for me.
That would be a great fit.

I'd pre-order tickets if that was legit.
What an I supposed to be watching on the second gif?
She might, she might not. I guess we'll have to wait and see.
I'd love to see what your wife looks like that you can go around shitting on Emma!
my mind is full of fuck
so what i have a chance now
Born to english parents and grew up in france for a few years. so technically french?
He's way too old.

If Gaston isn't played by that perfect park employee from that thread, it'll be a disappointment. I don't even care if he's not an "actor".
So, is Disney just going to keep releasing live versions of all their old animated fairy tales?
If so, will there be an Aladdin?
If so, who will be Jasmine? She's my favorite.
Also, is Aladdin even a fairy tale?
Also, who will play Iago?
lol

My thoughts exactly.
She's gorgeous enough to make me care about a Beauty and the Beast movie though, I'm in.

You're never too old to want to work out and bang.
OR
We can reuse the cutting edge CGI from the Mummy films.
Angelina Jolie didn't do it for you in Maleficent? ...me either.
It is.
