Also glad to a certain extent with their characterization in the comics. In the film, let's just say that the writers completely forgot to give them actual inner ugliness in terms of character (the worst they had is their crushing on Gaston, and didn't even come across as bad at all), and if anything came across as being much nicer than Belle and being a LOT closer to inner beauty and purity of heart than her. The comics at least gave them actual inner ugly traits to work with. Probably my only complaint about their characterization in the comics was that they kind of contradicted the movie by making them jealous of Belle for the attention Gaston gives her (the film failed to give that impression and if anything implied they were extremely supportive of the two getting married, and were if anything shocked and angered that Belle refused Gaston, something jealous people wouldn't feel at all.). I'm a stickler for continuity, so I don't like contradictions.
