The Conclusion to Gaston’s Story was Much More Ominous.
The fact that Gaston is one of Disney’s least liked characters is no surprise given his dismissive attitude toward Belle’s love of reading and his overall smug demeanour. In the original film’s last combat scene, Gaston exclaims, “Time to die!” as he prepares to die. Because of his single-handed stabbing, the Beast is no longer alive.
A number of people believe that the final version is more in keeping with the tension between the two men who are competing for Belle’s affections, whereas others believe that the first version was overly dark and violent. I guess they’re right, my opinion is almost similar too, the latest version is better.
