Never knew that about the original Beauty and the Beast! I love these little random facts about fairy tales. 😀

Some of my favorite books are The Lord of the Rings, The Lighting Thief, The Hunger Games, and Why Is This Night Different From All Other Nights?

What are some of yours?

Haha, don’t worry about going off topic, I love a…[Read more]

@jenwriter17 I’m here girly! 🙂

@kathleenramm Yes!!! Beauty and the beast has a very strong message FUN FACT FOR YOU!! (because I can XD) in the original story, the prince wasn’t turned into a beast by an enchantress because he was selfish and cold-hearted and turned down a kind old lady. In the original the prince is innocent. An old ugly witch wanted to marry him, and he…[Read more]

@michelle

Thanks for the recommendations! I’ll definitely be checking them out.

I haven’t actually read any of the original fairy tale stories before, but my favorite Disney fairy tale would probably be Beauty and the Beast.

Not only is it a lot more interesting story wise to a lot of other Disney Princess movies, but the message is a lot…[Read more]

@michelle

Yeah, rather. XD

@seekjustice

That’s interesting!

And you have no idea what connected you to keep watching?

@devastate-lasting Oh gosh lol… I haven’t read manga in a while, but probably Black Butler.

@selah-chelyah  Yes, actors can help movies a lot:)

@kathleenramm

Story and character arcs in general, really. Chauvelin is such a malevolent, evil guy, but seems so sacrificial and kind on the surface. And he’s definitely gone down the wrong road, to get there. But he’s believable, realistic in the era and story, etc, which is rare for me and super awesome! That’s neat that you want to read it- I…[Read more]

@leon-fleming

XD Yeah

@leon-fleming *fills up your empty coffee cup* Well, I mean it seems that Disney is not really coming up with new stories, they are just pulling out old ones, like they are running out of ideas. That’s fine that they want to do it but there is a thin line when it come to remakes, you can take some liberties when you do it, however , you don’t want…[Read more]

The Flash TV series. Actually, all of the CW TV series (Arrow, Supergirl, Gotham). I’ve watched all of them, and didn’t really enjoy any of them ( stopped watching Supergirl and Gotham because the content was awful). But I watched the Flash in particular almost obsessively because for some reason, even though logically I knew the plots were awful…[Read more]

@leon-fleming, okay. tag me if you end up getting on

@leon-fleming, @jenwriter17, @seekjustice (hopefully it isn’t a strange time this time), @valtmy, @rochellaine, @dekreel, @Ariel-ashira, @selah-chelyah, @catwing, @anyone else

I’m on for a bit

@kathleenramm Yes, it really is! it is sad but beautiful. You should read it:)

I mean Disney princess movies have good songs and all that, but they kinda push the falling in love thing too hard XD “Fantasise about that fairy tale wedding 5-year-olds” they get those priorities in line early lol

Ooh man, I have lots, but I really like The Story of…[Read more]

@leon-fleming *sips coffee* Right on!!! 🙂

Don’t even get me started on the live-action Disney remakes LOL

Arent ancient tales great? 🙂 (I love chatting with fellow fairy tale loves)

Yes, I have heard of Andrew Lang, I have been meaning to read his stuff for a while. How did you get into him?

@devastate-lasting Great answer! 🙂

@leon-fleming

Ah yes, the difference between interesting movies verses movies that are interesting to watch.

If your watching with some good friends it can be really fun to just laugh at movies. Especially cheesy ones with bad acting.

@michelle

I never hear the original version of The Little Mermaid! It’s so much more interesting and has much better message than the Disney version.

Though I get why Disney changed it. As much as I love stories where the main character sacrifices their life for someone or something they love, unfortunately I don’t think a Disney Princess movie…[Read more]

@selah-chelyah

The Scarlet Pimpernel is one of the books on my “to read” list!

Is there a specific thing that you like in a villain/antagonist most that makes them your favorite?
