Does Not Like Shoes has been renamed and redefined to focus on characters that explicitly or implicitly state a preference for going barefoot. Removing misuse


* DoesNotLikeShoes: Justified. See BarefootCartoonAnimal above. Subverted later as he is last seen wearing boots after being turned back into human. Doubly Subverted, however, in the Enchanted Christmas, as he is there shown to have been barefoot directly before his transformation.

* PlotIrrelevantVillain: The plot of ''Enchanted Christmas'' still could have worked without Forte. He only sows discord into the Beast (reminding him of his vendetta against Christmas included) and the one major thing that he does is instruct Belle to find a Christmas tree in the Black Forest, with the intention of having Fife prevent them from returning. Other than that, he has little influence and interaction on or with the other characters at all.

* RelatedInTheAdaptation: In Villeneuve's original version of the fairy tale, the heroine was the daughter of a king and a good fairy. A wicked fairy had tried to murder the heroine so she could marry her father and the heroine put in the place of the merchant's deceased daughter to protect her. In the film the heroine Belle and the merchant, or in this case inventor, Maurice really do seem to be related.
* ShipperOnDeck: In the beginning, he didn't seem to mind Belle getting with Gaston and even suggested Belle spending time with him. Of course, that was the beginning of the movie.
* YouHaveToBelieveMe: About the Beast's existence. Unfortunately, it only further convinces the townspeople that he's mad. Even after Belle proves to them he was right all along, they ''still'' think he's mad.

* SatelliteFamilyMember: Pretty much everything he does in the film is in service of Belle's story. His kindness and openmindedness explains her being educated despite being a woman, him getting captured by the Beast prompts her to go find him and offer to take his place in the castle, her finding out that he's searching for her at the risk of his own life causes the Beast to formally end her imprisonment so she can go rescue him, Gaston threatening to throw him into an insane asylum for supposedly imagining the Beast leads to Belle revealing the Beast's existence in desperation, and finally, his woodcutting machine frees them from the cellar they're locked in so she can go rescue the Beast from Gaston.

* NoCelebritiesWereHarmed: In some ways, Forte seems like an EvilCounterpart to Music/JohannSebastianBach; both lived in the 18th century, and like Bach during his lifetime, Forte seems to be better remembered as an organist (or more specifically, [[IAmTheNoun as an organ]]) than as a composer.

* FaceDeathWithDignity: The Beast knows that letting Belle leave the castle to save her father means that his chances of breaking the spell on himself and the castle before it will remain forever are lower than ever, and that makes him [[DespairEventHorizon fully content with dying]]. When Gaston approaches him and tries to kill him, the Beast doesn't fight back nor does any big attempts to protect himself, just waiting for Gaston to just end it all for him.

* BadBoss: Gaston is a warped variation. Even though he is shown to be a high-grade jerk in the village, and makes no effort to hide it going by his VillainSong, the villagers genuinely love him and don't follow him out of fear. This is part of the movie's message about not relying too much on outward appearances; Gaston's an oafish thug, but he's a ''handsome'' oafish thug, and the villagers end up focusing so much on the latter that they miss the former.

* DeathSeeker: The commentary implies during the wolf attack scene that he's suicidal at the time, or at least does not value his life too strongly, due to the hopelessness of ever breaking the curse. This is further supported in the Marvel Comics where Beast, after saving Belle and Chip after they were trapped in a very serious snowstorm, thanks Belle for saving his life, as her presence caused him to realize his own life was not "meaningless" after all.
