Posted: 7/1/05 at 12:14amJimmyoJimmy, I'm surprised. Any time I mention that I don't like that show, I seem to get jumped on by all the people who love it.
#32re: musicals only you seem to dislike
Posted: 7/1/05 at 12:21amOh wow. I can see why you dont like it though, its so cheesy sometimes. But my production was this last year at my school, and I loved it. But then again, I just love singing.

Guys and Dolls and Evita.
And I wouldn't say anyone is alone in hating Phantom.
#34re: musicals only you seem to dislike
Posted: 7/1/05 at 12:25amI used to not like POTO but now, since I've been listening to the actual lyrics its gorgeous, but I hate how there are like 4 reoccuring melody lines.

Gypsy........
bores me, WAY too long, and if on TV I fall asleep.
I HATED Bernadette in it when I saw it in 2002.

Cabaret -- Absolutely can't stand it. It's never done a thing for me, and I just don't get it.
Most Happy Fella -- boring, boring, boring.
Movin' Out -- It's NOT a musical, it's a ballet. I don't like ballet. Therefore, I don't like Movin' Out.
Sunday In the Park With George -- Tedious, self-righteous, and irritating.
The Lion King -- Weak score, nice puppetry design, but totally gets in the way of what story there is. CATS for the 21st century (and that's not a good thing).

Rent.
It's okay.
Has some nice songs. Even some great ones.
But the book is terrible.
The fact that it won the Pulitzer is a joke.
It just has too many problems.

Edited because I didn't say what I wanted to say properly. And can't seem to find the right words. Ugh.
Never mind.

Oh I'm so getting stoned for this. . .
Rent- I don't like Daphne at all and the music just doesn't settle with me.
Hairspray - I cannot stand MJW. Her voice rubs me the wrong way.
The Sound of Music- I never liked this and never will.

First in response to priest I feel Rent's only weak point book wise is when Mimi comes back. It must be remembered that the book is more than just dialogue (it is the story arc and how it is delivered, organized, etc). I feel that in terms of dialogue as well as the other mentioned areas that the book covers Rent excels. (again excepting the last ten minutes of the show) (Priest I know you know this about the book I am just stating it for those who don't know) Anyways different strokes.
For me its...
The Lion King (Say it with me O-Ver-Rate-ed *clap**clap*...*clap**clap**clap*)

Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat
and
Cats
Those happen to be the only two cast recordings my old roommate had and she would play them constantly!!! I wanted to die!
