Actor trivia shoehorns.


* HilariousInHindsight:
** Creator/TimCurry provides the voice of a servant and ultimately an antagonist of the Beast in this film. A year later, he would provide the voice of the Beast himself in the English dub of the Russian animated film ''The Scarlet Flower''.
** Creator/HaleyJoelOsment would reunite with the ''Beauty and the Beast'' cast in the ''Franchise/KingdomHearts'' games, but voicing Sora instead of Chip.

* AccidentalInnuendo: Fife's "I'd do anything for a solo!" Made worse by his voice actor being [[NeverLiveItDown Paul]] [[CaughtWithYourPantsDown Reubens]]. Forte's response to this line is not helping. Just the way Creator/TimCurry says it. "Yes... I ''[[DoesThisRemindYouOfAnything know]]''."

* SoOkayItsAverage: Many consider it to be one of the better Disney sequels, and Creator/TimCurry certainly does a good job as the villain, but that doesn’t stop it from being yet another standard Christmas movie.

* FridgeBrilliance: Why does Forte try to [[MusicalAssasin tear down the castle with his playing]] when he has his VillainousBreakdown? Because he's a pipe organ -- he's quite literally [[StealthPun pulling out all the stops]]!

** "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W-NuCiPmUJc As Long as There's Christmas]]" itself is no slouch, either, sung by almost everyone in the cast as they decorate the castle. The [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NhbFDvmyITc reprise]], led by Angelique, is also quite beautiful.

The film also ends with a gorgeous 90’s-style cover of the song by Disney veteran Peabo Bryson and the late Roberta Flack.

* {{Sequelitis}}: Well, midquelitis, anyway. While the film itself is probably one of the better so-called Disney "cheapquels", [[ToughActToFollow it's kind of hard to go from the pinnacle of the entire Disney Renaissance to a film that can be summed up as]] [[WebVideo/TheNostalgiaChick "Belle and the Beast defeat an evil gay organ and save Christmas."]]

On the contrary, the point of the song, aside from making sure Tim Curry got another good Villain Song to sing, was show just how effective of a Manipulative Bastard Forte really is.


* BigLippedAlligatorMoment:
** The song "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zwYZg_Y1ORI A Cut Above The Rest]]" comes right out of nowhere and stops as soon as The Beast enters. It also has a bizarrely happy tone considering they’re locked in a dungeon.
** "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B0C8sL89YYo Don't Fall in Love]]". Forte just suddenly starts singing it to convince Beast not to go after Belle, [[DisneyAcidSequence evil cupids he creates from his music keep trying to kill Beast]], and Beast leaves anyway as soon as the song ends, so it was entirely pointless other than to give Creator/TimCurry a VillainSong and have him scream "HELL!" Though, admittedly, that's actually a pretty good excuse; it'd be a crime to have Tim Curry play a villain and ''not'' give him a VillainSong.

* RescuedFromTheScrappyHeap: For some, when Angelique realized and admitted Belle was right, and sang the reprise of "As Long As There's Christmas."



* TheScrappy: Angelique. All she does is {{wangst}}.



* {{Wangst}}: Most of it comes from Beast and [[TheScrappy Angelique]], who unlike the Beast has less of an emotional connection with the audience enough to lessen the reception to his grief.

Uncanny Valley is IUEO now and the subjective version has been split; cleaning up misuse and ZCE in the process


* UncannyValley: [[IntendedAudienceReaction Done intentionally]] with Forte's [[TwoDVisualsThreeDEffects CG model]] to set him apart from the rest of the hand-drawn cast.
