    • Trivia
      The flashback scene where the Prince is transformed into the Beast was the original idea for the prologue for Beauty and the Beast (1991), as suggested by late lyricist Howard Ashman.
    • Goofs
      Chip makes it sound as if he's never experienced a Christmas before, though we see him in flashback (human form) celebrating Christmas Eve with the castle staff. He was already at least five years old when he was enchanted.
    • Quotes

      Beast: [recovering from slipping on the ice] I fell, and landed on my...

      [looks at his bottom, then hides it with his cape]

      Beast: on, on the ice.

    • Alternate versions
      When the film was re-released on Blu-Ray and DVD in 2011, the following edits for the remastered version brought some small changes from previous releases of the film:
      • The film is matted to a 16:9 widescreen format, while the original release was in a 1.33:1 aspect ratio.
      • In the opening scene, the speed of the waterfall goes fast in the original release, where as in the later release, the waterfall's speed has been reduced.
      • When Belle sings "It'll stay up until July...", in the original release, the camera is at a Dutch angle, where as in the later release, it is straight.
      • When Forte introduces himself to Belle ("I am Maestro Forte, court composer...") the sound appears to be slightly out of synchronization and there is a slight pause focusing on the steps before the camera pans up to Forte.
      • When Forte shouts "I THINK NOT!" there is a keyhole cutaway when the camera zooms out, in the earlier releases, there is none.
      • The Keyboard scenes are in animated after they were CGI in the earlier releases.
      • The Christmas angel on the tree at the end of the flashback is replaced by one resembling Angelique.
      • The end credits are golden yellow like the end credits of the first movie instead of chalk white like in the earlier releases.

    Excellent to see the original transformation!

    When I first heard that a sequel to BATB was to come, I was surprised: how is it possible that the Prince is the Beast again? But when I saw the film, I found it quite good - it was nice to see something new happening in the castle. And I liked the "nature of a beast" which the enchanted Prince seemed to have more than in the original story. I must confess that Forte was really frightening! And the best in the whole movie was the coming of the Enchantress and the transformation of the Prince into the Beast. Yes, I really liked the film very much.
