[extriandreamer]

[Shipuh]

MUSICALS ARE THE BEST!!

i really like Pippin.

[circaocean]

Can't stand em

[Riri_chan]

i didnt when i was lil but my older sister does plays and musicals so i leaned to luv them ^^

[Klawzie]

I haven't seen one live yet... I've seen one or two *filmed* from live... >_>

[Riri_chan]

kool which?

[Klawzie]

"Guys & Dolls" - someone's high school production. It was the first time I saw it and I loved it. I've seen the film version about twice. :3 I need it on dvd. (Funnily enough, I actually enjoyed the high school play's version better. I think the girl who played Adelaide was brilliant.)

I'm not sure what the other one was. "Fiddler on the Roof" maybe? It was really late at night and I was falling asleep. I didn't even finish it. ;/

[Riri_chan]

the first one sound interesting i wanna watch it

[Klawzie]

It's so worth seeing! (IMHO.) The songs are cute and funny. I mean, it's a romantic comedy, with gambling! Ha ha. I used to have the lyrics to most of Adelaide's songs memorized. And I think "Bushel & a Peck" is one of the best songs in the whole thing... :3

What's your favorite *modern* musical? One that's set to take place after the 1950's or so. (ie: Rent, Down With Love, etc.)

[Riri_chan]

oh like ive said like twice b4 Im seriously in luv w/ RENT!!
My sis got me the soundtrack^^

[Klawzie]

Is the movie any good, or did you see it? I keep hearing RENT is good, in general. But I don't know if the movie made the fans of the musical happy or not!

[Riri_chan]

i think my sis said theres a lil more depth to watching the live musical but I think the Movie was VERY good! i wanna buy it but im broke :(

[dreamcatcher]

I liked guys and dolls and the west side story

[Riri_chan]

man u guys r making me wanna see Guys and Dolls now!

[dreamcatcher]

man u guys r making me wanna see Guys and Dolls now!


It's really good. I recommend you watch it:D

[Lunarbloodempress]

[Riri_chan]

My sis is a "actress" but she just does movies and independent movies (ie its only been 2 so its not really that impressive:p)

[Riri_chan]

Pippin
Wicked
The Phantom of the Opera
Little Shop of Horros
(does this count?) Reefer Madness!
Tick Tick Boom!

o_o
and i don't even remember what else lol

[Alphonse Elric]

i've seen a few here and there...

[extriandreamer]

It's so worth seeing! (IMHO.) The songs are cute and funny. I mean, it's a romantic comedy, with gambling! Ha ha. I used to have the lyrics to most of Adelaide's songs memorized. And I think "Bushel & a Peck" is one of the best songs in the whole thing... :3

I love you a bushel and a peck, a bushel and a peck and a hug around the neck . . .
yeah that was the play we did last year. it was fun i have all the songs memorized

[extriandreamer]

Wicked is a great one too. Jeckle and Hyde is the best though and I you are not familiar with it you need to find it and at least hear the music. The Scarlet Pimpernel is amazing too. they are by the same person. Rent is good too, of course, but I wasn't crazy over the movie. Jane Eyre is really good too, and Seven Brides for Seven Brothers, and . . .

[extriandreamer]

I'm actually listening to rent right now

[nikitia]

i think i'm becoming repeditive... the phantom of the opera, its my favorite book, musical, soundtrack (love journey to the cemetary, learn to be lonely, music of the night, and of course the phantom of the opera) and movie. actually in some catagories it ties with an anime or magna.

[LadyTanyata]

I love the Phantom of the Opera. I saw it live in London a couple years back and fell in love with it then I couldn't believe it when they turned it into a film and they did a good job with it too!! I was so happy!

Anyway, I've also seen West Side Story, Seven Brides for Seven Brothers, Show Boat, South Pacific, Calamity Jane, Kiss Me Kate, The King and I, and Oklahoma (sp?) Loved most of these but wasn't too keen on South Pacific, Calamity Jane and Oklahoma (sp?) and it's been ages since I've watched Show Boat. But I love the others. The songs are just brilliant in them!

[Perdition City]

I can't stand most musicals - the only one that I could probably watch over and over is South Park: Bigger, Longer & Uncut! :D

[extriandreamer]

man, you poor creature, how can you not like musicals (okay you don't have to answer that

[Perdition City]

I will answer it anyways. All the singing really pisses me off, and since singing is a fundemental part of musicals.. well, you know...

[extriandreamer]

singing makes the world go round

[Kaede]

I like singing, but musicals have to be really great for me to tolerate them. Singing about every little thing is only obnoxious. That said, I love/adore/cannot ever get enough of Wicked. It's amazing. The music, lyrics, acting, everything is absolutely awe-inspiring.

[Kaidan]

Needs more Iden&tity (http://www.midnighteye.com/reviews/identity.shtml).

[A Victim of Profiling]

More like, needs puppet pr0n musical ftw.

IKN YOU CAME!



Fappo. Now I can't pwn the forum. COMPETITION HURTS. <3

[A Victim of Profiling]

I just make you work harder for the prize.

Still, you don't need to worry. I'm too busy getting off to vids of goofy white guys in red hats.

[Kaidan]

I don't think I want to know. Anyway. BLUES BROTHERS AND IDEN&TITY ARE ALL THE MUSICAL I NEED.

[A Victim of Profiling]

I'm not thinking musical; it's more that I'm hard gay for Devo right now and it's not leaving me alone.


D: I watch Ama (No Play) and the only thing going on in my mind while I'm trying to read the classical subtitles is "crack that whip~"


If I binge on videos I'll purge the songs from my head.




Blues brothers > Thread.

[Kaidan]

D: I watch Ama (No Play) and the only thing going on in my mind while I'm trying to read the classical subtitles is "crack that whip~"Greatest quote I've read in the past month at LEAST.

[A Victim of Profiling]

<3
I try to provide. ;D

[adichappo]

my favourite musical is RENT. I've seen it four times on stage and I think the movie version is an insult to Johnathan Larson's beautiful score.

[scarecrow]

Devo.
Hahah.
I saw this thread again and the first thing that popped up into my head was, "go go go jooseph you know what they saay" AAGH XD

[duowolf]

I like musicals as well espically some of the older ones like Oklahoma, Calmity Jane and Seven Brides For Seven Brothers.

[extriandreamer]

calamity jane with doris day was great, but i never saw it on stage.

has enyone else seen The Scarlet Pimpernel?

[zetsui101]

the best musical i ever went to was The Lion King off-Broadway at the Spokane Opera House. the music was so good, i bought teh CD after teh show. and the costumes...they're impossible to describe they were so amazing.

[Miako]

I LOVE Musicals... I love watching them on tv, I love watching them in theatres and I love being in them. Um.. except the movie RENT.. the movie was kinda sucky...

The bes musical for me is probably The King and I, but my all time favorite is Oklahoma!

[MephistoWaltz]

I too love musicals! I didn't anybody else liked them. I like the Producers and the Sound of Music. I wish I could sing.

[nikitia]

i want to see the producers, was it good?

[MephistoWaltz]

I haven't seen the old one. Only the new one, and I liked it. So yes!

[frecklegirl]

Wicked and Avenue Q!

[Angel_Nosaj]

I like musicals, just recently I seen The Producers, funniest musical you could ever see, it was awesome!

[Angel of Chaos]

I haven't seen the Producers, but I hear it is good, like Rent. I love the soundtrack though. I like Anastasia. Sadly enough I know the all the songs to Hercules. Ask CafeSociety.

[i.love.kyo.sohma]

i loved rent!! if anyones seen that who's yur favorite character?

[MephistoWaltz]

I've seen Rent. I don't have a favorite character but I like most of the songs.

[Kurapica]

The only musical that I've ever seen was Bleach.... Bleach rock musical I think. Now I hear that there might be a Prince of Tennis musical?! Yikes! :eek: Don't know if I'd wanna see that.
