Were you a big theater kid growing up

Kinda, was never on stage, only played trumpet in the pit band. Started getting more involved in pit bands as an adult tho, so I’m more of a theater adult lol

In sweeney todd defense, our choir freshman year was trash

because 70% of songs in musicals are overly campy

Hamilton is an affront to rap
The average Hamilton listener is more likely to listen to Qveen Herby than any actual rap music

Immortal Technique was right to throw Lin in a trash can

The singing takes me out of the narrative. Just doesn’t blend well to me

Sinners is my favourite musical

Freaknik the Musical forum group watch when

It's definitely worth seeing, the title performance is amazing, and I can understand the comparison to The Master because of its focus on cults/sects/religious devotion. I can also see some influence from The Witch and Midsommar.

The musical elements are necessary to the plot and add a dose of unlikely sexual tension to a film that's otherwise about sexual trauma and repression. It's really interesting.

I don't

I had an idea for a rap musical. Like niggas beefing and getting into a shootout then spontaneously bust out into rhyming in the middle of it. Could actually be hard. Am I stupid?

Historically it's just always been an extremely corny and campy genre. Like all the "classics" have that overly gleeful cheesy ass theater tone going on. So anybody doing even a modern twist still has to point references to it cause that's just what u do in art. The best ones were so creative all around u don't really mind the songs cause they blend into the world (Wizard of Oz, Willy Wonka, old Disney Films)

yes <3

Extraordinary

Classical ballet > musicals

Musicals make my skin crawl

Nigga said he like to bake & they said hell no stick to basketball 😭

🎶 Stick to the status quo

I really don’t

I dont rly like most of the songs and the messages tend to be kinda weak

I like mama mia (the songs r so good) and the producers (also the songs) tho

I was obsessed w cats in preschool

O hs musical slapped at the time

cause i‘m heterosexual

Usually it’s cause the songs in those movies aren’t traditional “musical songs” like how they are in the U.S., they’re legitimate songs made for the radio that also correlate to the story. Genres usually span from ballads to EDM, and Indian ballads in these films sound very different to an American musical ballad

Itll be tuff trust me
