I used to like the film myself. To some degree, I still do (I thought Beast was awesome in that flick), and Mrs. Potts was definitely sympathetic as intended.
However, that doesn’t change that there was plenty wrong with the 1991 film, many of them even being the same problems people complained about the 2017 film, especially the radical feminist bits.
The Disney reputation has been tarnished by young stars wanting to break out their individuality. I am sad that so many young women fell that debasing themselves is the answer. Look at Miley Cyrus, Britney Spears and now, Emma Watson. Long ago, Walt Disney asked Annette Funicello to please not appear in a bikini. Can you just imagine Annette ever saying something like ‘what do my ti*s have to do with feminism?’ (Quote Emma Watson when asked why she would show up in an ad, half naked, if she were really a feminist). The Left has done a pretty thorough job of destroying the wholesomeness of the American image.
