mte. entirely missing the point of the very basis of the story imo

I really don't understand television or movies that want to retell the Beauty and the Beast and won't make the extra effort into making AN ACTUAL BEAST as the love interest. It says a lot about "them" and moreover defeats the purpose of the tale itself (problematic as it is).

A poorly stitched up scar and a Hulk-mentality do not a Beast make in the context of this tale.

No, he's basically the Hulk, getting excited causes him to go into a nearly-blind rage and become superhumanly strong - like punch a concrete pillar and take a chunk out of it.

It's still so weaksauce.

No, he was part of a military experiment when he was in the army and given drugs that make him turn into a monster when he gets overly emotional, which is when he looks like a monster. Not a cat monster, but more like something like Frankenstein's monster.
