So? What is it. I go the cult side and pick...

The Rocky Horror Picture Show.

It was on last night on Bravo! so I watched it. Love that film. Tim Curry and Richard O'Brien rock.

What about you guys?

At the late night, science ficition, picture show....

West Side Story because I was in it!

I played A-Rab, who was the comic relief.

There's a King on a throne with his eyes torn out.
There's a Blind Man looking for a shadow of doubt.
There's a Rich Man sleeping on a golden bed.
There's a Skeleton choking on a crust of bread.

Moulin Rouge, which makes me king pussy.
RHPS was great too though. All of the songs are ten times better when you can watch the scene that goes with them. (I had just downloaded the music before watching the movie on suggestion from friends.)

Not at all! It's a great musical. I thought the movie was pretty good too. Who knew Nicole Kidman could sing? My boyfriend liked that musical too, he was glad that I made him sit through it.

Other than the RHPS, The King and I starring Yul Brynner, who is *sexy* for a bald guy.

Chicago is a good use of the musical to tell the story, but I'm glad I rented and didn't buy the DVD. I couldn't stand Moulin Rouge.

I did see The Sound of Music as a kid. I remember liking but not loving it. Might have to re-rent it.

Does Willy Wonka count? That's another all-time fave!

I guess Willy Wonka counts. I LOVE Gene Wilder! He was perfect for that part.

I havn't seen Chicago or The Sound of Music or the Kind and I. I hate that Renee chick and Sound of Music doesn't appeal to me really.

The only CATS I've seen is when my sister was in it when she was in grade 3.. ;P Never seen Les Mis. I'm poor so I can't go to musicals that much.

I liked Mama Mia too.

Chicago didn't impress me so much. I guess it's a matter of taste.

Oh, and I have to mention Cabaret before I forget. That's a good one too.

Can you believe Brad Pitt and Jennifer Aniston are producing a remake of Willy Wonka? I'm extremely leery as to how they can improve on that movie.

Also, last August, Bloodsage and I drove by the town shown at the end of the movie during the flyover. It's a cute little walled town.

Fiddler on the Roof is great. My school did that last year; I was Mendel, the Rabbi's son. And our own Vise was the most important character.

Phantom of the Opera - Michael Crawford is a small god, and I regret that I wasn't old enough to see him in concert, just hear his music

I like the movie version of Hello, Dolly! because he was in it

I love Les Miserables, and I saw that on stage for my 17th birthday

I adore the stage version of Beauty and the Beast.

I agree that Yul Brenner in the movie The King and I is one sexy beast.

Miss Saigon made me cry.

I think overall there is only one musical I can't stand. Cats.

Phantom of the Opera was the best. I have seen it at least a half dozen times.

Jesus Christ Superstar was good.

Man of Lamancha was also wonderful.

To many good ones to name.

I can't stand musicals. They're so horribly unrealistic, and that prevents me from sympathizing with the characters.

This isn't a "omg all u ppl haev bad taste fux u losers" post, but rather a "that type of performance isn't for me " post, so please don't jump down my throat and rip me to shreds from the inside

In person I've seen Phantom, Cats and Showboat (which is awesome by the way, the bass singing Old Man River nearly made me weep) I would dearly love to watch a good performance of Les Mis. Also, the broadway version of the Secret Garden, so good. Guys and Dolls...

Movies..there are almost too many to name, I can't even think of them all...King and I, Cabaret, RHPS and Moulin Rouge, Little Shop of Horrors, Grease..
