Most critics regard the 1991 animated film as superior to the 2017 live-action remake. Michael Phillips of the Chicago Tribune stated that the 1991 film "worked wonderfully because it was pure Broadway, written for the screen, blending comedy and romance and magic and just enough snark in the margins", while the 2017 remake got lost in translation since "The movie takes our knowledge and our interest in the material for granted. It zips from one number to another, throwing a ton of frenetically edited eye candy at the screen, charmlessly." The real importance here is what Julia Morgan was able to achieve for women despite what the critics think about Beauty and the Beast.
Imagine that you had a hot tub time machine that would transport you to any of your rich auntie's walk-in closets between the years of 1969 and 2001, and return with any items you can grab in 45 seconds. Like have you ever seen DoubleDare hosted by Marc Summers? Don't ask me why you only have 45 seconds, I didn't design the game or the hot tub time machines. So, TFAoD is kinda like that. Everything is trill.
