Beauty And The Beast Remake: 18 Major Changes Disney Made
9. Gaston Doesn't Have Biceps To Spare Any More
In The Original
In his show-stealing song "Gaston", the anti-hero proclaims that he has "biceps to spare" - one of the most memorable lines of the entire set-piece.
In The Remake
That line is now gone, and some of the other lyrics have also been changed. But they aren't entirely new: instead, Alan Menken reveals that the new lines are outtakes that weren't used in the 1991 version, and talk up his hunting style. It's clear that he's the real monster in the detail...
Gaston: “When I hunt I sneak up with my quiver, and beasts of the field say a prayer. First I carefully aim for the liver, and I shoot from behind.”
LeFou: “Is that fair?”
Gaston: “I don't care”
