NO!:/ I thought 3 new songs would be perfect. One for the Beast, one for Belle and one for the enchanted objects. Wonder who will get to sing the new songs now...

I just wish the one that got cut is the one for the enchanted objects. Belle and the Beast as the protagonists need the songs more for further character development.

Oh, and here's the new logo.

No, what I meant was that they cut a song from the new ones written specifically for the live-action adaptation. There were going to be 3 new songs initially but now there will only be 2 new ones.

I see they went the opposite direction with the logo. The first one was too much, now this one is too little. Disney is not one for happy mediums, heh. Still, I am happier with this one than the first one.

Yeah, this seems a little bland but it's a vast improvement over the hectic and flowery logo that was used during filming. Perhaps Disney's trying to go with grand but simplistic (the whole gold on the blue fabric/velvet)?

What a generic and mediocre logo. The previous one was at least more creative.

It looks like the title card to a daytime soap opera. :lol:

Quick video of pretty much nothing just showing the cast :

Title card is dull .... The one from the film caps them all I think. This one looks similar to the Platinum DVD I think ?

This new logo is way better than the old one. The old one was flowery everywhere, when the word "Beast" should be stoney, cracked, ugly or, you know, beastly. That's what this new one thankfully does.

Apparently it was released during D23 this weekend.

Yeah, I immediately thought it was fake, but I thought I'd post it anyway. Nevertheless, it does give us some sort of idea (even if it is fake).

Fanmade or not, I think this picture proves my concern; Emma looks too young to be Belle. It's not as Belle needs to be as mature-looking, but Emma has such infantile features. No offense, though.

God, I hope it's the Mob Song. I hate that song.

I hope that's not real, or just quickly put together as a teaser and no reflection on the final work. The dress...

Combine the two logos to have Beauty (all flowery) and Beast (as in the new one) for the perfect logo. Like the original animated movie logo.

It's photoshopped. The background is from Harry Potter obviously and the dress looks like a Halloween stock image. Emma's face is plastered on top of it.

In the video link I posted, he does mention something like "I've sure you've seen the image of the yellow ballgown on Emma" ... does that mean that the costume was there, or there was a still posted ? If that is the case, it hasnt been leaked or anything has it ?

EDIT - It seems a video clip was shown of Belle coming down the stairs in her yellow dress for the ballroom scene. But it doesn't appear to have leaked at all, which is good and slightly surprising as well !
