Megan Hilty Vs. Jennifer Laura Thompson... — Page 2

Yes, Elphaba3, I think you are the only one

I think it is a close tie between Kristen and Jennifer's voices, which are very different, but as far as acting and comedy goes, for me it absolutely has to go to JLT. I thought the review posted by buncha, was quite good in some respects, but for it is just that Kristen never made me laugh like Jennifer did. The author of the review points to the guffaws that Chenoweth received from such one word lines as "huh?" -- but I experienced much that same thing to an even greater and more poignant extent with Jennifer. I find her humor much more appropriately timed and spaced, and every time I hear Popular I role on the floor laughing like I never did with Kristen. She takes the character beyond a level that Chenoweth did.

I could write pages about this, but it's all just my opinion, so I'll stop here

"Kristin is a fantastic comedianne with great timing and a wonderful voice, but I think Jennifer is more of an actress."

I agree with you there. I think Jen is better as a dramatic actress that a comedic one. As I said, her rendition of "Thank Goodness" is amazing. The best of all the Glindas I've heard, in terms of acting.
