What is your favorite MOVIE musical?

[Phanari]

My favorite movie musical is actually a movie rock opera. REPO! It's so twisted and entertaining! The music is SO FUN!

 

[Skilletdude]

Oh ya I liked Repo! The Genetic Opera too... almost forgot about that one. Loved Sarah Brightman in it...

 

[Phanari]

I mean, yeah, Paris Hilton's in it too, but she's got the perfect voice for the part.

Of the ones listed, Chicago.

Of all musicals of all time, ever made:

1. Moulin Rouge
2. Rocky Horror Picture Show
3. Chicago

I have some of the others on the list but Grease is a great musical.

I voted for Wizard of Oz, but only because i couldnt vote for Mary poppins or chitty chitty bang bang

It was hard to choose between POTO and Sweeney, but I chose Sweeney. I might be a little biased though, because I've had a thing for Johnny Depp since Edward Scissorhands came out when I waa nine-years-old.

Another one of my favorites not listed is Moulin Rouge. It's still one of the only movies that makes me cry. Christian's reaction to her death was so gut-wrenchingly realistic, especially with that angushed sob he let out. I also love Ewan McGregor as well.

I love Sweeney Todd! That's on my top four list!

I didn't like the movie version. Mainly because of their Phantom ..........not hiring Michael Crawford really lost them points in the beginning. But Butler as their Phantom!? WHAT THE MUFFIN!? I mean, he portrayed Erik as a monster. And if you read the best Phantom book ever (Susan Kay's novel), you can see CLEARLY he's a tortured soul.

I voted PotO even though Fiddler on the roof is my fav.

 

[alanpartridge]

Across the Universe for sure. I would argue that the Beatles songs in it sound better than the originals.

Sweeney Todd wins for movies I'd say. Phantom is the most amazing play, but Joel Schumacher messed it up in a lot of ways. It was still a decent movie, but it wasn't at all on the same level as the play or book.

Sweeney Todd was beautifully done. I'm a huge fan of Tim Burton so I may be biased, but I loved the cast, the costumes, the general look of it and pretty much everything about this film!

Hands Down -PHANTOM OF THE OPERA !!!
This musical makes me laugh , cry and be angry all at the same time ..Its truly a love story that makes you empathic for the antagonist...You love the Phantom but at the same time you realize he is deplorable

 

[Distracted_Writer]

The Phantom of the Opera. :yes:

 

[BFine]
