Talk:Gaston (song)/@comment-1672596-20171112152758

As much as I think the initial draft of the movie was better (and by that, I mean Woolverton's draft), I do think it was wise to remove the lyrics where Gaston mentioned he tended to shoot his prey from behind and admits he doesn't care if it's fair. Look, shooting prey from behind when hunting is kind of the entire point of hunting, since one of the more important elements of hunting is to avoid being seen by your prey. If they see you, they'll do one of two things: They either flee from you, thus denying you any food and making your chances at survival a bit less likely than before, or they'll attack you, which definitely could have you maimed or worse. It doesn't make Gaston look villainous, it makes him look like he knows what he's doing. Fairness doesn't even work in hunting, it's not like a football competition or chess where there are rules. In hunting, the only two rules are, either you kill the animal to get your food, or you perish.
