I’ve always been a huge Phantom of the Opera fan <3
Alexander Hamiltons soundtrack is phenomenal however I have never watched it, and I believe I maybe have watched one or two others in my childhood. Does anyone have any recommendations?

Reefer Madness: The Movie Musical is pretty darn good. I’m a big fan of Kristen Bell (The Good Place, Veronica Mars) and her singing and dancing and singing while dancing is super impressive. And then, there’s… that outfit.
Also, Alan Cumming doing his thing, which is always entertaining.
Reefer Madness was absolutely amazing. Kristen Bell has been sneaking her way into my life a lot lately lol. I’m watching Veronica Mars tonight and hadn’t ever heard of it before. I watched Reefer Madness and Burlesque in the same night by coincidence. Also recently finished rewatching The Good Place.
Phantom of the Opera is the one I have seen the most on stage and it always gives me goose bumps. So probably that one.
But have seen Les Miserable, Cats, Rent, Aida, Miss Saigon, Chicago, and Wicked. Out of all of them the only one I didnt enjoy was Cats. I love listening to Cats on CD but the stage play just looses me. Also I will admit to liking the movie version of Rent more than the stage play and I am very sorry for that.
P. S. Wicked stage play far superior to movie(s).
Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt is great for a lot of reasons but its origin story for Cats is superb.
I’m saddened that nobody’s mentioned Chess. It’s an amazing rock opera by the guys from ABBA and Tim Rice. One Night in Bangkok slaps.
Anthem is a phenomenal song.
Moulin Rouge. No competition in my mind.
hamilton.
book of mormon.
jesus christ superstar.

the blues brothers
Seeing Book of Mormon was my theater highlight, it’s so great
After I saw Book of Mormon in the first Norwegian version, I played the full original soundtrack almost every day for years afterwards.

Fiddler on the Roof is my all time favorite, followed by Rent. And that is likely because I’ve only seen those 2 musicals.
I saw both Phantom of the Opera and Les Miserables in London eons ago. They’re both great, but I think I like Les Mis better.
The most common criticism I’ve ever heard about Les Mis is that it’s overdone. Maybe it is, but that’s because it’s so fuckin good.

It’s the story of Aladdin in the style of Wicked. It’s a silly and wild ride of nonsense jokes and deep emotions.
I am not a fan of musicals generally, but I do love The Nightmare Before Christmas and Little Shop of Horrors.
also not usually into musicals but The Wiz is one of my favorite movies
I saw Phantom of the Opera on Broadway in NYC so that’s a top one for me.
My favorite is Repo the Genetic Opera. I really enjoy that one.
Edit: I forgot to mention that I love anything Gene Kelly, that man’s butt is amazing!
I think I know exactly what I mean, when I say it’s a shpadoinkle day!
I have a weird love for Across the Universe. The middle is a bore, but I love the 1st and 3rd act. How I learned to like The Beatles.
Yesterday, a 2019 film is good in that it is the Beatles music but in a world where no one has heard of the Beatles.
