It met all expectations given from its successful run and still is on the stage.

Yes, this was a beautiful film with awesome music.  I watched it on a long airline flight and was able to fast forward to the next song, ha.  --I had already seen it in the theatre.

(Each airplane seat had its own remote.)

I like listening to the songs on the home theatre with the volume turned up.

My all-time favorite movie. I've got the DVD and the soundtrack.

And tqpix, you're not alone. ;D

Methinks the Phantom was just misunderstood. ::)

All right, I'm joking. BTW, did you guys know that Gerard Butler (the Phantom) was the leading guy in Lara Croft 2? Didn't really like the movie, but he was a good "misunderstood" bad guy (Terry Sheridan) there, too. And apparently he was in a rock band. Cool, huh? Many thanks to imdb.com... ;D

I know I have seen the stage production, which is very good. The only version of film I've seen is with Nelson Eddy, as Anatole Garron, in the 1943 version. I haven't seen the newer version.

What have you been doing, DW, that's kept you too busy to see the new Phantom of the Opera?!? Oh, dear. I'll pray for you. ;D

Seriously, though, I really loved it. You've just got to see it! And soon!!

P.S. I'm immensely jealous of your seeing the stage production, and I'd love to see the 1943 film.  :P

Some things are more important then watching movies. Though I haven't the desire, to see the new Phantom of the Opera.

;D ;D ;D

You're talking to the POTO fanatic here! I'm crazy about the movie, the books, the characters, everything. To me, the Phantom isn't a monster, he's a really fascinating man who would have been so wonderful if it weren't for his face.

I know I'm digging up an old thread here, but I just had to post in this one.  I'm a big fan of Phantom of the Opera. I've seen the play numerous times, own the dvd of the movie, and the soundtrack. ( stage and movie versions ). On the whole I thought the movie was good. There are a few points I would have done differently/ some things I would have added/ subtracted, but on the whole it was good.  As usual, Andrew's music was incredible.
