I was a little sceptical up until 0:50. After that, everything in that world suddenly made more sense. It's got crack pipes and sewing!

Oh my god. This was great.

Have you seen Donna's tits, don't they look real?

I'm in hysterics here.

"It's like Pretty in Pink but if the dress looked good." I want more of this.

When Belle is sitting next to the fountain and she's explaining the story to the sheep and she sings "you'll see" is she really singing "EWE'll see"? I didn't get that pun until I watched this video. If it is a pun. I bet it is. So many levels, man.

The part where the bookseller makes his little joke and she's like, "That's not funny"? That's my favorite part.

"It's my favorite!"
"That's how you do it, bitch."
"Nice try, ho."

So may good lines. Plus all the "hey girl"s are perfectly placed.

Sit through any Disney movie enough times with a princess-addled daughter, and you'll be doing this too, though under your breath. Cinderella becomes cathartic for grownups too when you "redub" the dialogue to include frequent references to unusual sexual practices.

Just make sure the kids can't hear. "Daddy, what's a Hot Karl?" is not a question I want to answer. Ever.

Apparently the "Internet to Metafilter to guy in my office who doesn't use headphones" time is just under 2 hours.

All you need in a book: "it's got crack pipes, and sewing..."

Lovely. I'm not positive but does she hesitate when she replies to the bookkeeper that she "Borrowed" the first book? I may be reading too much into it but I thought she was implying she nicked it.

So were there no black people in France during this time? Not one, a servant, a maid or something!?

Now we all know what happens on Fire Island when it rains on Labor Day weekend.

I haven't seen this film but this makes me want to so I can sing along to the crack pipe part.

Address that to the Disney folk.

That made me laugh, plus something about how she "just couldn't put it down."

Black people in a provincial French town in 1740? Not exactly common.

Oh lordy, you're right, I caught it clear as day when I heard it again with headphones. "Just couldn't put it down", twist! Good one. Good one.

"I can hear you, bitches," and "that isn't funny" won it for me.

My favorite part was where the guy was rude.

I watched this belatedly (Friday afternoons are quiet in the office) and ended up laughing out loud.

I hope they do one of these for every princess!
