Do you really expect happy music from a guy who looks like death?!

That was the roughest puberty I've ever seen.

If anyone wants to know why Prince Adam was so cold hearted and bad tampered, he was very lonely and had no friends at all, despite having his servants in his castle. But imagine if Prince Adam and Belle were childhood sweethearts and she helped him change his ways prior to his transformation to a Beast, maybe he could’ve been a better person.

Forte is the only happy one there because at least he's doing something he actually wants 😂

Prince: I don't need a rose. Go away, you wretched old hag! Very poor choice of words.

He's sort of a victim, really. Yes, he's an asshole, but remember that his parents recently died. Sometimes people become incredibly mad and immature while grieving. This is is especially true for kids. Also, come on, would you let a creepy old lady into your home? Stranger danger! Lol

Not a bad scene, but it's missing some things. 1. The enchantress doesn't warn him to not let appearances deceive him. 2. The Prince doesn't dismiss her a second time or apologize when he sees what she really is.

she should have said "Do not be decieved by my haggard apearance, for beauty is found within."

Adam/Beast: "Ugh... I hate it! Forte, that stuff is gloomy." Me: "You and me both!"

0:11 Poor Chip, he looks so uncomfortable and scared in the background

When the teacher decides to punish all the students instead of just the troublemaker 🙄

'I don't need a rose. Go away, you wretched old hag.' LMAO

Forte looks so pale. I'm guessing he doesn't go outdoors too often. Just likes to sit in the dark and play music.

Prince Adam in this scene is 1.Crude 2.Disrespectful 3.Handsome 4.Spoiled 5.Selfish 6.Unkind 7.Immature 8.Bad Tempered 9.Bossy 10.Demanding 11.Rude 12.Hateful 13.Angry 14.Bitter 15.Intimidating 16.Mean 17.Rebellious 18.Bratty 19.Unpleasable 20.Impatient 21.Naughty 22.Cantankerous

Poor Chip. He has been locked in the same age for a decade. That is some sort of living Hell.

pretty interesting, a french prince with an american accent who has to open his own doors......doesn't only get himself cursed, but is such a dick that everyone who works for him is screwed as well.

If Adam has a library, what does he have against a book?

Forte wears piano keys on his sleeves and has piano keys for hair? Well that's just convenient

As far as Disney midquels go, this one is pretty damn frigging good.

This is hilarious! He reminds me of Prince Joffrey! 😂

Once upon a time, in a faraway land, a young Prince lived in a shining castle. Although he had everything his heart desired, the Prince was spoiled, selfish, and unkind. But then, one winter's night, an old beggar woman came to the castle and offered him a single rose In return for shelter from the bitter cold. Repulsed by her haggard appearance, the Prince sneered at the gift, and turned the old woman away. But she warned him not to be deceived by appearances, for Beauty is found within. And when he dismissed her again, the old woman's ugliness melted away to reveal a beautiful Enchantress.The Prince tried to apologize, but it was too late. For she had seen that there was no love in his heart. And as punishment,, SHE TRANSFORMED HIM INTO A HIDEOUS BEAST, and placed a powerful spell on the castle, and all who lived there. ASHAMED, of his monstrous form, the beast concealed himself inside his castle with a magic mirror as his only window to the outside world. The Rose she had offered, was truly an enchanted rose, which would bloom untill his 21st year ("For many years" in the stage musical). If he could learn to love another, and earn her love in return by the time the last petal fell, then the spell would be broken. If not, he would be doomed to remain a beast for all time. As the years passed, he fell into despair, and lost all hope... ...for who could ever learn to love...a Beast?

It's called stranger danger people. I wouldn't let a stranger in either...

Me hitting puberty in a painful way: 1:20

This one scene says more about Forte's motives than Forte himself. As a human his life consisted entirely of writing music for the Prince only to be told how horrible it is. As an immobile object he's not only the most OP in the entire castle but he's got the Beast completely wrapped around his finger(or lack thereof) and he's REALLY not tryna go back to the former.

the lesson of the stories kids? If a stranger asks to be let into your house, always say yes

Well, thats a christmas present

hahaha for an 11 year old, prince Adam sure has a deep voice On another note,I love this scene

Anyone ever thought that the reason he's pissed off is because his parents aren't there? I mean, if I was an 11 year old kid and my parents were away on Christmas I'd be pretty fucking pissed off at them, unless they got a good reason

It's just puberty.

Usually Disney sequels have a bad reputation for being shoddy and made for money but this is one time when I think a sequel worked. It develops Adam more as a character because it shows how conquering his temper and vindictiveness didn’t happen overnight so his eventual redemption in the end of the original film feels more real. Also Adam having an evil counselor pretending to be his friend makes for a great conflict because it explains where some of his mind poisoning originated during the time he was a beast. Their dynamic is a lot like Othello and Iago in the Shakespeare play. Having Adam repent of his cruelty towards Belle over Christmas and defeat Forte serves to strengthen their love because by conquering his dark side and defeating his enemy he becomes a better version of himself.

*parents*: never let a stranger into your house kids *disney:* let the stranger in or you'll be cursed forever ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

0:38-0:39 He's got a point.

Wait, shouldn't he be 11 in this, he looks 16

Santa brings presents, The Enchantress brings puberty.

Damn he roasting everybody 😂😂

I wonder why he of all people would answer the door. I know it's in the original but if he's rich you'd think he'd have his servants answering the door.

Forte looks better as an organ.

Spoiler Alert if you haven't watch the new movie: It's weird that in here, Adam pretty much hates that book, but in the Live action one, Beast is a bookworm.

It explains that the Prince/The Beast was very spoiled, cruel and unkind because his death kind mother passed away of sickness. And, his death strict father teaches him not to be good.

This is one of my favorite Disney movies of all time. Forte is my favorite villain.

I like the keyboard patterns on Forte's sleeves.

honestly, he was a brat, but given that no one outranks him in the caslte its kind of expected. sort of like Kuczo.

Yea, he's 11, but let's be honest, he doesn't look it. Can we just talk about how fine af this guy is?

I have to point out that the tune Forte is playing is the tune to don't fall in love.

At 0:37, even though he's acting like a spoiled brat, i kinda have agree with him. That music is gloomy and doesn't fit Christmas. Sound like something played at a funeral. I would like to have a story book for Christmas. I'm like Belle!! I love reading and have a good imagination.

Is it just me or does Forte look really happy when he's playing the organ? :3 And Lumiere is so sweet. o3o stupid Adam being mean to Lumiere, poor bby

Where's the part where she warns him not to be deceived by appearances? or where he pleads for forgiveness?

I know he was being too harsh to her but this could arguably be justified. Think about it, Snow White learned (the hard way in fact) that you can't always trust strange old ladies, let alone accept gifts from them, especially in a world where Sorcery and Witchcraft exist. The enchantress must be like Judge Frollo from Hunchback. She wants to make the world a better place but the measures she's taking are only working against her goal. Is she just gonna waste her time cursing every jerk in world? She'd be France's Most Wanted if she was doing this very often.

If he hated books so much, why did he have such a massive library? 😂 And why did he think so much of books that he agreed the library would be a good present for Belle?

I wish they wouldn't have killed off Forte and just at least tried to reason with that regardless what comes between the Beast and Belle, Forte will still be important to the Beast

I’m glad he met his match w/ belle bc she was the only one to put him in his place when he got out of line. The others were too scared to handle him the way she did. She humbled that ass lmao . The enchantress did too

I bet if he read “A Christmas Carol” he would’ve begged to get the Scrooge treatment instead.

If Gaston and the villagers had ever learned about the origin of the Beast with the magic mirror that Bella had used to prove to them that he is real, there's no doubt that they still would've disapproved of her falling in love with him and still would've wanted him dead.

Tim Curry and Kath Soucie are both the sexiest voices in this movie.

It would've been nice had the Enchantress returned and turned Gaston into a beast. Like maybe through the movie, a peasant woman tells Gaston(continuously) that Belle doesn't love him and that he should give up and even change his ways but Gaston refuses to listen. Then after the beast becomes human. Gaston(not falling to his death) is prepared to kill the prince saying Belle belongs only to him and will kill any who stand in his way. The prince is still a little weak from the fight but then the woman appears again and says, "Such behavior and language. A hunter now wanting to hunt a person." Gaston warns her to back off or he'll kill her, too. He has every right to have Belle as his wife. She reveals her true form, the enchantress who the prince and his servants quickly recognize. She freezes Gaston in place. Enchantress: Having a wife is a privilege, Gaston not a right. Gaston: I defeated a beast, I can get past you.(struggling) Enchantress: You have killed many beasts, Gaston but still not the biggest one of all, the one inside of you. I believe the beastliness that people have inside of them can turn to beauty if they open themselves up and learn what beauty and love is. (points to the prince) Some people can be saved before it's too late. I give everyone a fair, sporting chance. But the others like you who refuse to change, well, they have to start over in a life that suits their undying beastliness. Gaston is transformed into a beast and runs off. When the villagers see him, they think he's the beast come to kill and start chasing him with hunting devices.

The Enchantress is so gorgeous!

I woke up from a dream about this and after all those years watching this movie when I was a little kid the Prince was a spoiled brat and got turned into a beast as his punishment

okay, so I watched the first 33 seconds or so a few times on repeat and cannot STOP LAUGHING! this bratty-ness is seriously cracking me up!

I wonder if the book he got was the one belle read

That passionate look on Maestro Forte's face when playing eerie music is my mood. ❤️

Aw, so THAT'S how that went down!! Wow, the Prince was an asshole, so I totally get that he should be a beast, but... Why the staff?? They were nice people!!

Puberty disturbs his Christmas!

When I saw this during an ABC broadcast of the movie in December 1998 (without actually thinking about the movie), I thought that what happened was that the spell broke and then they fell back under it. But upon seeing it on DVD, I found out that this scene was a flashback.

I know some wonder why all the servants had to be placed under the spell, too. In the Broadway musical, Cogsworth says, "Why did we have to get dragged into this spell? It was the master not us who turned that old beggar woman away." Lumiere points out, "But we are responsible for helping making him the way he is," and Cogsworth says, "I suppose that's true." They did spoil him, always letting him have his way and didn't try to get him to change his ways.

Kath Soucie sounds intimidating while voicing the enchantress especially when she curses Prince Adam and the others

SIMPLE & REAL EXPLANATION, READ: 1. These were Beast memories - being cursed for 10 years, and Belle arriving in the last/final year (maybe few months more to distinguish Christmas from his 21st bday) - OF COURSE HE CAN'T REMEMBER EVERYTHING FROM 9 YEARS AGO! (try it yourself!) - including Enchantress asking again, and him apologizing to her 2. Stained glass windows from the first movie (telling the story as it really was) WERE PLACED IN A CASTLE AFTER THE CURSE WAS ALREADY BROKEN (because at the end we witness Belle & Prince in a window) - probably ordered to be built by Cogsworth, who was the main servant, and Cogsworth being already adult and mature at the time when it happened he remembered the situation far better than the very young prince (so he narrated the story too) 3. You shouldn't hate this so much - because as a kids WE ALL WANTED to see how they looked before the curse, including Enchantress, but in this 'normal character' version rather than that of stained glass. 4. This version is actually the base of the live-action intro, in which Prince is having a party, sitting on a throne and organ/piano is playing - interrupted by the old beggar woman, also the Enchantress shining and holding a rose in the middle.

That's so sad! He was just 11, a kid! We have to admit, at least some of us were like this. Plus, wtf? #StrangerDanger!

selfish prince he deserves that curse to learn manners and love all thanks to belle

Forte, I liked your small piece. Your music is never to gloomy for me.

If I was one of his servants I would be rather pissed off. I just happen to work here lady. I wasn't rude or arrogant to you. In fact I never even meet you. Why the hell am I suddenly a teapot?!

He looks more like 15 than 11.....

The Enchantress cursed Adam's servants because they were enabling his bad behavior. They knew he was being a brat, but were too afraid of losing their jobs to stop him. Since they cared more about the money than Adam they were turned into objects. Even after the transformation they were utterly terrified of Adam. Belle was special because she wasn't afraid to stand up to him.

Remember. He was 11 years old when this happened.

At 0:14, here is the wimpiest comment of the century. "A storybook? You call this a present?" Well, what did you expect, a PS2? This is the middle ages, those kinds of devices don't even exist yet! Look up time-travel in that ill gotten book, for god's sake!

I really wish that the Enchantress looked like this in the 2017 movie and did this to Gaston, since it was the original idea.

Lmfao! "Bring me my presents!"

I want my hairdo like forte on my 21st bday

Even in human form, Forte is still scary.

I loved forte when i was little. he is still my fav character

reminds me of joffery XD

Prince didn't want to be disturbed but he answered the door. anyway the enchantress probably heard about the prince's cold heart so she decided to test him by disguising herself into an old lady and see if he can try to be kind but he told her to go away. therefore enchantress decided to punish him for what kind of person he is by turning the prince into a beast.

That stuff is gloomy 😂😂

Fun Fact: The Enchantress has the same voice actress as Dexter's Mom in Dexter's Laboratory.

The piece of Maestro Forte is Baroque and PERFECT!!! :)

When Tim Curry is scared of you, you know something's terribly wrong. XD

Beast: That's the reason i hate christmas. Until i was wrong. you were right about the christmas.

When you let the old lady in : *you get a poisoned apple* When you dont.. *you turn into a beast*

I'm the only one who prefer him as a beast

Lol, what's with Forte? He looks like a Kabuki mime judge.

Underrated movie ❤

I wanted Prince Charming Adam to look kinda like Belle’s husband.

Chip was shown here as a toddler. In the song "Be Our Guest", Lumiere clearly mentions that they have been "cursed for ten years". If Chip was aged somewhere between 4 to 6 years old at the time the Enchantress cast the spell on them, shouldn't he be aged 14-16 by the time the curse was lifted? He was shown as a real human boy when, chronologically speaking, he should've been a teen-ager by then.

An 11 year old orphan acting out because he has to spend another Christmas without his parents is turned into a beast after exercising the right protocol when it comes to "stranger danger".

If Adam was 11 when this all happened shouldn't he have had parents with him?

I like when forte plays a small piece on his pipe organ before he became an organ

Basically judged a book by its cover

Forte makes a better villain than Gaston, but that's just me. Or my love for keyboard music, like organs and pianos.

i’m sorry but that last five seconds during his transformation had me crying laughing 😂😂😂😂

Is it me or does the human Forte truly give me a vampire-like appearance? Anyway, he seems to me a more positive character in his human form... and kind of charming with Tim Curry's sexy voice... Moreover, I think Forte and Snape from Harry Potter have a lot of things in common, both in looks and in behaviour. Forte in his human form would make a perfect Potions teacher at Hogwarts. Besides, I love organ music, so any piece of organ music (including the one Forte was playing) would be a perfect gift for me! And silly as it may sound, but I kinda fell in love with Forte in his human form, and I do feel sorry for him in the end when he dies. He really reminds me of Snape anyhow - my favourite Harry Potter character.

Man I’d stay a beast imagine the king not being able to bench 225 and suddenly bench 1,000 and up …
