Beauty and The Beast. Worth the Imax 3-D upgrade. It seemed to be a better 3-D experience. Watch out for the snowball!
Great sets, Gaston, nice wrap-up as the spell ends. Makes the animated version seem cartoonish (yeah, I know, bad pun.)
I didn't have any problems with the comments that it brought modern (Feminine Equality) ideas, gay ideas (Le Fou is great), etc. into the plot. It's a fairy tale and was mostly that.
The PR was ENTHRALLED. Well worth the years long wait.
