Unpopular Opinions You Hold — Page 15

9 TO 5 is quite good. It should have been nominated for way more Tonys and should have taken home at least one for its awe-inspiring set design.

I would rather see Shrek AND 9to5 then see Next to Normal.

I think [title of show] is overrated.

You're probably right. But I will never forget how upset those nine people were when it was snubbed at the Tony's.

I don't like Billy Elliot at all, and I was furious the three boys from it won Best Performance By an Actor in a Leading role. They could not act or sing in tune, or do more than one thing at once. Yes they can dance, but when they sing, they often stand there stiff as a bored, with no expression.. Why should they get the award over the men who have studied acting, had tons of professional experience, etc. They shouldnt even have been nominated.

I HATED Spring Awakening, and I saw the original Broadway cast. Most of them were very talented.. but I thought the show had WAY too many characters and too many plots. Way too many things happening, and most of the plots came out of nowhere and went nowhere. I also think it's funny that people were saying that it was "The new Rent" yet it only stayed open for a little over 2 years, and Rent was open for almost 12 and half. I will admit that the length of a show's production does not always means its better than shortlived ones, or even good at all (Cats), but I still find it funny.

The Only show that I thought was worse than Spring Awakening was The Color Purple. I have never been so bored in my life. I hated everything about it, I've never been so happy to see Curtain Call take place before. Those were the two worst shows I ever saw.

I also do not like Eden Espinoza's singing. I think it's very screechy, and does wayy too many riffs.. Stephen Schwartz shouldve yelled at her for the way she would sing Defying Gravity.

All very unpopular opinions, but I stand by them strongly.

I'm sorry TulitaPepsi, you are entirely entitled to your opinion, and I know that's what this thread is for, but I have to say that I don't agree at all. I don't see that in her character. I'm actually kinda surprised anyone feels that way. lol

"I love THE LIGHT IN THE PIAZZA, but the book bothers me. I can't help but feel that although Margaret goes on about 'giving her daughter a chance to live and love' her main concern is pulling a fast one by palming off her poor brain-damaged daughter on those simple, passionate (and colosally stupid) Italians so she can go back to a carefree life of bridge parties, finger sandwiches and fabulous clothes.

I have expect Margaret's last words at the church door to be "She's all yours, suckers!""

lol. (Just the way you said it not laughing at you or anything).

But still, if this were the case then why would she initially be hesitant to the idea of Clara getting married/being with Fabrizzio (was that his name? I can't remember)

But Margaret never really comes clean with the Naccarellis either - she's a bit duplicitous!

Still love the show despite my misgivings about the plot.

I'm happy for Susan Boyle and don't mind reading about her.

I probably said this in my last post, but I LIKE EDEN ESPINOSA's voice, ya you saw right. She's talented

Patti is great, but not all that and a bag of chips like she thinks she is.

I saw Shrek and 9 to 5 today and loved them both!

I do want to see Hair eventually, but it isn't at the top of my list. I disliked the song they did at the Tony Awards, and I don't get why everyone was raving about the performance. Is it just because they did the audience interaction there? It probably is something that looks better in person.

also, I liked LuPone Gypsy better than South Pacific. And I think LaChanze in Once on This Island should have won the Tony over Daisy Eagan in The Secret Garden.
