Aladdin, just... go away.
You took something the wrong way and are overreacting.

You're making yourself look a lot worse.

I could easily change it to me and Norbert...I've noticed Disney and Wicked take a beating on here

I'm making myself look worse by telling people to grow up?

This thread is getting to be unreadable because of some personal squabble. Please take it to PM or e-mail.

If you are under 18, please be aware that you don't know everything, that you are prone to saying embarassing things without thinking, and that it's usually better to just listen and learn.

If you are over 18, please don't act like you are 12, and please don't waste your time in name-calling with kids.

Thank you.

I'm probably going to get lambasted for saying this, but oh well here we go. How is the opening in Wicked even close to be considered the worst opening of all time?

Yes, most people on here loathe the show, but surely there is something a bit worse...Take All Shook Up for example...

That being said, BEST: Chicago or Sweeney Todd WORST: All Shook Up

worst: "the last real record store on earth," from high fidelity.

way too long, choppy, and boring.

I love Wicked, I just don't like the overture. I do like "No One Mourns the Wicked," but I don't like the overture.

Can't believe nobody listed 42nd Street's opening number as one of the best!

Gotta go with Music Man's as the worst.

Ragtime. LOVE it.
Sweeney Todd
Beauty and the Beast (I'm sorry, I just love it)
Parade
Drowsy Chaperone
Into the Woods
Assassins

Worst:
well, if you see Chorus Line with a cast who can neither sing nor dance, it's pretty freaking bad...
Joseph (BORING! I am doing the show right now, and we have to stand in place in this like "family portrait" thing for the opening, and it is SO LONG)
The Producers (it just bothers me... I hate this show anyway though)
Jekyll and Hyde with "Lost in the Darkness" or whatever it's called

"I love Wicked, I just don't like the overture. I do like "No One Mourns the Wicked," but I don't like the overture."

It has an overture? Or do you mean the Monkey Number?

"I may have said those Lea Michele things THEN, but that was like more than a month ago and now I don't really care.

Lizzya, there is somethin you haven't hear of, apparently. It's called anger management. Please, do us a favor and be alot more calm and not be a crazy person. My friend AshleyBrownFan hasn't talked alot in a while due to the fact of the recently bumped 2007 Leading Actress thread.

Thank you.
