| Goofs | When the villager with the scythe kills Gaston, he does so properly, swinging and capturing his victim in the curve of the crescent blade. When he kills Chantal, he drags the tip of the blade across her throat, a much less efficient way to use a scythe, defeating the purpose of the curved blade. See more » |
