Without a doubt, Les Mis. I find Les Mis to be stunning, and Phantom unbelievably dull.

What are you talking about? Tour? Broadway? London?

I love them both equally, but I'd have to say Les Miserables.

Les Miz, I saw it first then everyone told me how much better Phantom was and I have to say I was horribly let down by Phantom. It was good, but nothing in comparison with Les Miz.

Les Miz, no contest.

Although I really question how necessary it was to make this thread.

I'd have said Phantom in high school.... Les Mis for sure now.

Phantom's a big gift box of cheap, overly sugary candy. Les Mis is a nice big hearty meal.

Not that there's anything necessarily wrong with cheap candy.

Love them both, but Les Mis wins for me.
