What do you all think about the Phantom of the Opera?? I LOVED it!!! It was so good!!! I loved the first Angel of Music song with Meg. The actress who played Christina (don't know name... new thing to look up!!) was wonderful too! My mother and friends mother both thought the Phantom was "hunky" (<- As BOTH put it, lol), but I tended to prefer Raoul... Anyway it was wonderfully done, what do you all think of it?? (Ok, maybe it was a little... murderouse, but Phantom HAS been in a dungeon for a long time eating who knows what and doing same...)

I haven't actually seen it myself, but my weird friend has, and she is obsessed with it! But I have got the soundtrack because my parents have seen the theatre production, so between them, I know the basic story line. But I'm hoping to go soon!

Which one did Lloyd Webber play? Apparently it was one of the guys... Phantom, Raul (if it was RaulI'd be depressed, he's cute!), or the other one, the fat one that gets killed...? Anyway I think it's really good and you should see it!!

er...Andrew Lloyd Webber.....the famous musical WRITER! Heehee, he wrote Cats and Aspects of Love and Evita and Joseph (and the amazing technicolour dreamcoat) and Whistle Down the wind and The woman in White, plus loads of others. Lol, sorry, he's kind of an english legend, just really rude! xoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxox

I know! I STILL haven't seen it either. Just when I was about to go, it stopped. And it doesn't help that my mum and my crazy friend keep going on about how GREAT it is, and how stupid I was to have missed it.

Actually, I don't live in London. I live in a little English country town where nothing happens. At all. And its an hour drive to the nearest cinema! Annoying or what?

I think it's finished showing in London anyway... Here's the stupid thing:
IT IS A FIVE MINUTE DRIVE FROM MY HOUSE TO THE BIGGEST ODEON CINEMA COMPLEX IN THE WHOLE OF THE UK AND I STILL HAVEN'T SEEN ANY OF THE FILMS I WANTED TO SEE! isn't that stupid?! and only a half hour walk, too...and it's a really nice walk, down by the river....and I even have someone to go with! It's crazy! Lol Louise ~xXx~

Nope, it says on the board at the front (you know, the round bit over the door) that it's the single biggest Odeon complex in the UK and I'm prepared to believe them.
OK, so not as FLASH as Leicester sq, but still larger! and I wasn't shouting, I was using unnecessary emphasis...on every word in the sentence...oh what's the point in trying to deny it?!

neither can i - if i even attempt to sing that high, no noise comes out or my voice cracks. but at the moment she's depressed because the dance choreographers are playing up and one of the Raoul's can't sing anymore
