past the point of no return
Okay so...I have two new obessions.
1) Domilie
2) POTO 2004
I'll address Domilie first since you guys prolly don't know what that is.
Domilie = Dominic Monaghan/Emilie de Ravin
Yes yes I ship real life couples more than I do show shippers. Leave me alone. It's what floats my boat. Plus the manips of Domilie I've seen are SO cute. That's what got me hooked. I started Claire/Charlie and ended up Domilie. I'm so weird. I like Domilie more than I like their characters together. Okay so maybe that's equal. They're all the same person so it's all the same shipper. HAHA. Yes that's it. I ship all four.
Yay for shippers. I'm the queen of them. I like many. From all over the place.
Okay now onto POTO 2004. I saw the movie saturday and O.M.G. it was FABULOUS! The critiscs gave it a C but the hell do they know? Nothing. They wouldn't know a good movie if it bit their balls. Or bit them in the ass..which ever saying you like better. As for me, I'd give it at B+. Why not A? Well because some of the singing was a little off. Mostly Gerard with some Masquerade mixed it. Actually the latter was good, I just like to complain about the part in the middle where they talk. The way I've heard it, the dialog that they spoke was supposed to be sung. Other than that, Masquerade lived up to my expections. That had always been my favorite song from POTO since we sang it in chorus my senior year.
Oaky now, one to Gerard. He's a good singer but he hit some notes wrong. Atleast IMO he did. Music of the Night was the only one I noticed him doing it in (probably because I didn't now very many other songs from POTO). I noticed it mainly when he belted ("...let your soul take you where you long to me" both times). He went too high. I cringed when he hit those notes. I got the soundtrack right after the movie let out (actually, I had to go to three different places to find it but that's beyond the point) and even though I've been listening to it non stop, I still cringe when he's get that part of the song. I'm sure I'll eventually get used to it.
I have a new appreciation for Minnie Driver. She kicked ass as Carlotta. She was bloody hilarious!
Random Carlotta Quote: "For the past three years, these things do 'appen but do you stop them from 'appening? No! And you two, you are as bad as 'im! "These things do 'appen" ma...UGH! Until you stop these things from'appening, this thing does not 'appen! Ubaldo! Anidamo!"
See? Hilarious.
I've talked to a few different people about the movie and they all say the same; that Gerard was too young/sexy/didn't have to right voice/whatever to play the Phantom. I don't think they're right. I think he was perfect for the phantom. Of course, I had never seen the stage version like they had so who's to say if they're right or wrong? Not me. My opinin of the phantom. He is teh sex. I would love to molest him. I didn't just say that. Ahem..moving on.
The girl that plays Meg looks like Emma Bunton. No doubt. Kitty Kat can back me up on that.
Ant told me that Carlotta's singing voice was dubbed over. Minnie did a good job of lip singing. Ant also told me that Christine was not dubbed over. That was really Emmy Rossum. I'm stiff iffy on that.
I think I'm done talking about POTO. Hehe. Onto something else. Wednesday I'm going to see a show. This will bring back many memories of when I was in the show I'm going to see. What show is it? Seven Brides For Seven Brothers. AKA SB47B. I was in the show in 2001 and I had a semi important role. I was Joel. Yes, I played a guy. I had short hair at the time and we were lacking guys, so there you go, I was asked to be a boy. It was very fun. My neighbor Angie was my girl. She was taken by a guy in my class. Are you confused? Do you have no idea what the hell I'm talking about? Well here, something to help you:
Adam, the eldest of seven brothers, goes to town to get a wife. He convinces Milly to marry him that same day. They return to his backwoods home. Only then does she discover he has six brothers -- all living in his cabin. Milly sets out to reform the uncouth siblings, who are anxious to get wives of their own. Then, after reading about the Roman capture of the Sabine women, Adam develops an inspired solution to his brothers' loneliness . . . kidnap the women they want!
From IMDb. That's a summary of the movie but the stage play is the same thing. I can't wait til I see the show. It's coming locally and we have tickets in row O, which isn't bad.
Sigh. I need to be show. I could have been in one but it was youth theatre and the limit was 18. Figures... as soon as they raise the limit of youth shows from 16 to 18 I'm too damn old.
Wow..this is long. I should really be going. Don't hate me for taking up tons of your friend's page space.
