Soooo, who's your favorite character? Or do you have one? I'll have to say that even though i adore all the characters. Angel is the queen, in every sense of the word. The garbage can scene in the movie was CLASSIC. I also hold a special fondness for Mark, Roger and Mimi as well. And Collins is awesome just for his "Merry Christmas bitches!" alone.

let's see, i've seen the broadway production once and the touring production once. when I went to NY, Cary Shields was the Roger and i totally fell in love with him. ahhh!! so hot! i love Matt Caplan as Mark. he's so awesome. *sigh*
i met Adam Pascal on my very first visit to NY. i almost died. this was when Aida was still playing. it was late, around 11:00 PM, and me and some of my roomies were sightseeing around Time Sqaure. i was walking with my head down because it was flippin cold and walked head on into this guy. i felt so bad because he dropped his bag and some of his stuff spilled out. i kept on apologizing and trying to get his stuff together, but he kept saying "it's ok, no big deal." when i look up, Adam Pascal was standing next to me. i was totally speechless. he was really nice and really chill about me bumping into him. i had the worst luck because my camera ran out of battery right at that moment. grr!! i told him we were gonna see Aida the following night and he said he'd give us a tour backstage before the show and introduce us to the cast. ahhh!! it was the best moment of my life!
the musical = :thumbsup:
the movie... :bleh:

I'd suggest you go see it for "La Vie Boehme" and "I'll cover you (reprise)" alone. "Tango:Maureen" was another fun number in the movie.
MissMonika wrote:they also cut out the whole mark/roger fight that was in goodbye love. grrr...i was really disappointed when that was cut. christmas bells is my favorite song in act 1 and i was so disappointed when it wasn't in the movie, although i can understand why.
i was initially expected to be disappointed with the movie but it turned out to be pretty ok. my favorite scene was the tango:maureen. i loved how it was done. omgosh, i was sobbing during without u when angel dies, and during the i'll cover you: reprise. sooo sad!!
MissMonika wrote:no offense to the original Mimi on the OBC recording, but i so prefer Rosario Dawson to her. it's just that the original Mimi's voice is too, grrr...annoying, i'm sorry to say. it's too raspy and breathy. when i first bought the OBC, i wanted to tear my hair out whenever Out Tonight played. Rosario Dawson is not the greatest singer but it's a lot smoother and I think she deliverd a good performance.
this is just my personal opinion, so don't hate ppl.
