Today, I decided to study physics. That lasted for about two minutes. And then I was like, "MUST FINISH MEME... WHICH IS FUN... UNLIKE PHYSICS!" And that's how this meme came to be. We will see how I feel about this in the morning when I take my test. X(

Anyway. I've been wanting to do a meme for POTO for the longest time (that's Phantom of the Opera for all you lame people). I really want to do more fanart for it anyway. We'll start with this.

You really don't have to read the rest unless you're a really dedicated phan and will know what I'm talking about... or if you are just lame and want to figure out who wrote the book and stuff............ 'Cause these comments are freaking long.

1.) Ooooh, Sunni is color-coordinated with the rest of the masquerade movie ensemble . Unlike Christine and Raoul. Who choose to wear the most obvious, non-discreet costumes they can find. What's wrong with them? Are they stupid? YES. Secret engagement, my behind.

2.) ERIK! I had to draw book Erik here because... he is freaking awesome. This is when he's at the top of his crazy game. I mean, he has snapped at this point. And the whole scorpion/grasshopper thing is just too delicious. BAH. (Also, for you lame people who have seen the movie and not read the book, YES ERIK REALLY DOESN'T HAVE A NOSE IN THE BOOK. It's true.

3.) Erik/Christine. I don't know who wouldn't pick this as their fave ship... I could count the R/C guys I know on one hand. (Not that I don't think R/C has its merits. Heck, even Giry/Erik has its merits....) But, OMG THESE TWO. WIN. And also! I am not lying about the boobs thing. I mean, I love the ALW musical as much as anyone, but is the cleavage necessary? [link] [link] Sandra Joseph, I am talking to you!

4.) Carlotta, like all the characters, grew on me. I used to hate her, but I think she's kind of fantastic now. This is partly because all her outfits in the movie are freaking amazing, and I love all her hats, so I don't know what she's complaining about there. Anyway, my favorite outfit is the pink affair she has during "Notes I." Although her Il Muto dress is gorge, too...

5.) STORY TIME! So, I was 14, and it was my first year of high school, and I was in band class with the most awesome band director ever, Smalls. <--not his real name. Smalls loved musicals, and he wanted us to watch the new POTO movie. Well, we were all generally pretty disrespectful and loud and not concentrating at all, which made Smalls angry. So I finally started paying attention to it around "Angel of Music" or something, and then I was kind of lost, so I asked a simple question. And he simplified the story very, very well, I think. XD

6.) I can't draw kisses, I'm sorry. So I draw my two favorite scenes: one from the musical, one from the book. Both make me cry.

7.) Versions:
- ALW Movie (2004): The beginning of my love affair and pretty much the most awesome movie ever. I don't care if the deformity sucks, the movie is fantastic. And Gerry is... omg... an actual good Phantom. DEAL WITH IT.
- Lon Chaney (1925): GREAT! It's silent, so I advise watching the one with the sondtrack added. It's very close to the book (except for the FAIL END), and really cute.
- David Staller (1990): It made me laugh. Really, really hard.
- Robert Englund (1989): Awful. Horrible. I got it for $7, and it was a complete waste of awfulness. Most OoC Erik evar.
- ALW Music: Haven't seen the play. CRY FOR ME. But the music is the most brilliant thing ever created. Seriously.
- Yeston/Kopit Musical: Really cute. The music is... okay. There are only a few songs that I love, but it's a really different take on it. The story is good. I love how it starts when Erik and Christine meet, so you actually get to see them getting to know each other... sort of. And Raoul is German or something. It's weird. I kind of hate the end, though.
- LEROUX! Bestest version! Erik is creepy and awesome and sad and somehow sexy, too. READ IT LOVE IT.
- Kay! Okay, I don't even care, this is the best prequel book ever. Erik is completely true to the original, and this book is just so great. There are so many fantastic moments. Including the whole "genitalia in a jar" quote. I love you, Susan Kay.

(Also, I've read one other book called The Angel of the Opera, which was Sherlock Holmes meets the Phantom. It was also lol-arious, and it had a sickeningly sweet ending where the Phantom fell in love with Holmes's blind musician lady friend. Mmmmmyeah.)

I'm not sure how Raoul did not end up in this, because he is some kind of awesome.

Do the meme. It's awesome. But it should have been longer.
