I actually think Luke Evans is a pretty cool guy.

Why didn't they dub him, though? That shit is in every movie anyway, so why did they just let him have a tenor voice even though it doesn't fit at all?

i mean i dont hate Evans or anything, but he definetly doesnt fit the character. here's hoping the acting saves it.

What in the fuck? Who approved this? Why is this happening? I would have rathered they got some random brain-addled steroid-hopped gym rat to stumble his way through the script rather than this bullshit. But they didn't even have to do that, there ARE big guys working in hollywood, there's no fucking reason to pick this guy. They didn't even change the script, they're still claiming his neck is thick and shit when he's a skinny little poofy high pitched faggot.

The real thing about this trailer is the choreography and cinematography. I mean, what the fuck? I'm no expert on movie musicals but I have seen enough to tell that this is bland and lifeless. Why all these fucking wide shots? Why is the set so cluttered with extras doing nothing? Slowly panning the camera in every shot isn't going to hide the fact that nothing interesting is happening.

>>90295191
It really is impressive how amateur the cinematography and choreography seems but once again Gaston's incompetence steals the show. When the camera finally pans over to him he's just barely twitching in his chair, staring off into nothing as he spouts off his lines with the barest resemblance of "acting".

The thing is that the original song was extremely lively, like most disney songs, but this one especially so. It sticks with people because it's so cartoony, he's ripping his shirt off and flexing and chugging eggs and punching LeFou around while he screams about what a manly man he is. In this new version they have him rolling his head around a little and then leaning back and assuming absolutely no facial expression whatsoever while the masses of crowds just sort of stand there, vacantly staring and doing nothing.

has really hit why they cast him. It reeks of decision by committee. Disney knows better then anyone else that the little girls they like to pander to like their men effeminate, nonthreatening, and girly. So thus, why not turn the ladies man into someone their under-sixteen preteen girl audience will swoon over? Sure it ruins the point of the character in that he's supposed to be like a caricature of manly attractiveness rather then actually attractive, but all the teenage girls will be rubbing themselves raw and buying tickets between each session so Disney doesn't give a shit.

The point of the song is Gaston is pissed and they're hyping him up he was just shot down so the entire town is singing praise and he gets into it after a bit, in the live action he's just sitting there accepting adulation at no point one upping everyone because he is ACTUALLY the manliest man in town like the cartoon showed

I know huge hairy men aren't in vogue at the moment but that's not the point. You're not supposed to like Gaston, he's meant to be an obnoxious caricature of traditional manhood who is actually vain and manipulative and ends up being the villain.

But Disney gotta have that horny preteen $$$ so make him blandly attractive
>>
>>90295953
I've been following the Luke Evans saga for a while now, everyone is aware he's gay but he isn't officially "out".

When he was younger he was very out and did interviews talking about his love of gay porn and big dicks.

But when he became a star his publicists insisted he not discuss his sexuality and they even tried to put him back into the closet by having a PR woman claim they were dating. Even though they haven't been seen together since and he just went on vacation with a man.

The guys been in multiple big budget films (The Hobbit, Dracula Untold and now this) but his publicists still insist that confirming what people already know will hurt his box office appeal.
>>
>>90287461

Not super into Gaston's voice, but the clip cuts because Gaston really does anything, so it's hard to dodge. Maybe he just takes a few more seconds to get into it in this version.

Or hell, LeFou's lyrics are a little different in this version ("more than the sum of his parts like Gaston" instead of "got a swell cleft in his chin like Gaston"). Maybe they just decided that no normal human could be as cartoonishly muscular as an actual cartoon, and this song is going to be a paen to Pretty Gaston instead of Comically Swoll Gaston. Which wouldn't be a great adaption and would never match the original version, but it'd probably make a better movie then trying to convince us Luke Evans eats 5 dozen eggs every morning.

Devil's Advocate: Gaston is meant to be really good-looking in a generic hero way, to fit the theme of the movie. This was an era when movie leads looked like Hulk Hogan. It wouldn't have been weird for the hero of the movie to look like Gaston, but he's actually the villain.

Nowadays, even actual top pro wrestlers aren't as jacked as 80s action stars (pic related). There's basically no one who's big and strong-looking to match cartoon Gaston while also believably being a romantic lead.

Luke Evans looks like the romantic male lead in a Disney movie made for pre-teen girls, which he's supposed to. If the movie accounts for this, then it'll be perfectly good and functional (even if I'll never like it's Gaston like I did the cartoon).

Of course, if Gaston's shtick is still "big strong manly man", it won't work, but if they go all-in on Pretty Gaston, I can accept it.

Practically everyone in that scene has dark hair, it's like we must make Belle stand out by having her being the only person in town with a different hair color.

Beyond that it's insane how much this scene seem to suck compared to the animated original, if you don't do anything with it, why even keep it ?

Seeing Josh Gad prance around for 3 minutes is every bit as unappealing as it sounds.

I knew this was going to suck, but I thought it would at least work for the intended audience (5-12 year old girls), no I'm not sure it will do that even.

The live action Cinderella remake looks like a work of art by comparison, at least it had decent cinematography.

Every new clip i see of this makes it look more and more pointless

Jungle Book had the advantages of the new technology allowing for more complex animals than the old live action adaptations and the fact that they changed the plot enough to justify it's existence as a remake, whit enough nods to the original for nostalgia's sake

This Beauty and the Beast instead is just copypasting the original movie while making pointless changes (like Belle fucking around in her town without being distracted by her book, basically bothering the townsfolk on purpose) and lacking the charm that the original animation did (no live action Gaston can look as parodically manly as the cartoon one; maybe someone like Schwarzenegger in his prime, but they clearly wanted a "real" actor instead)
