The general take
Ryan Coogler's quote cuts off mid-sentence while he's reflecting on watching intense movies as a child, so there's no complete take on Beauty and the Beast itself in what was provided. He seems to be contrasting his own childhood movie experiences with what he exposes his kids to, but the specific opinion about the film is incomplete.

…transformative films from childhood that influenced filmmaker's career
“Yeah. It'll be, it'll be two big ones. Boys in the Hood. And I was, I was a baby in there, man. Like younger than my, younger than my eldest kid is now. And she can't get through a Pixar movie without being like, dad, it's too crazy. You know? And my dad had me like boys in the Hood. Like right here, son. You know? I'm like, I'm like four years old. Like, ah! Oh shit. But then, but then Beauty and the Beast. And then, and then Malcolm X.”
