I searched the boards and couldn't find this topic. So, sorry if it has already been posted, but did anyone watch the video of the Lion King on the subway?

First, I have to say I think it's really cool that they did that. Props to them!
It did make me chuckle at the beginning though, because the opening is so unusual, I think the reactions of the passengers are hilarious. It would have been kind of hard not to laugh with someone screaming some of those notes and lyrics right in your ear. It also made me smile at 1:22 when the passenger right in front is looking like he wants nothing to do with it. If I could bubble caption him, I think it would say, "Aww hell no! Subway performers again? NEXT!"
Check out the video if you haven't seen it!
