Re: movie and play
Yeah, maybe it is because Micheal Crawford had performed the play so many times that after a while, he fell out of the mood of the character and just started singing off his lines. That could be part of the reason the movie just feels so much different and in ways better than the play.

Re: movie and play
Yeah.
I didn't cry when I saw the play...I cried during the movie. Wishing you were Somehow Here Again, and the END.....

Re: movie and play
I'm a little late in joining this discussion, but I think that Zac Efron is definately too young to play Raoul and sound good. Also his style of music is not exactly opera, now is it?

Re: movie and play
Hello I'm your Michael Crawford phan! lol
Now before I start ranting I just want to say I love all of you and the movie.
People say that the movie is better because it's more emotional. The reason for that is because well it's a movie. They can have a redo if they screw up and they film the same thing over and over (PONR took a week)
The beautiful thing about Phantom is that you don't have to be attractive to play him. he is kind of supposed to be ugly I mean, on the outside at lease.
We don't really know if any stage Phantom cried while he read the script, all I know is that Michael crawford really did get inot his character and stayed that way until he had to retire.
I agree though, Michael lacks the real hard core emotion (though the man makes me cry like a baby) but that could be because in comparison, Gerry has more acting experiance.
I think that's it for now. Bring it! lol I'm kidding
--- Long Live Phantom!!!!!

Re: movie and play
Same here and don't get me wrong I love Gerry, really I do. I've always been a huge phan of his it's just I'm not a phan of the constant bashing between the two men who brought the actual music of the night (not saying that we've been doing that ladies/gentlephantoms)
