The painn that must have went through the Phantoms heart :'( To let the love of your life go, it must have been the most difficult decision he has ever had to make. To all those people who say he didn't love Christine, and was just so called "obsessed and crazy". Put your selves in his shoes. In the case of the Phantom. "if you truly love her, you will let her go", the most beautiful movie i have seen, it was an honor to view it.
@TigressLion0330 umm i have watched the movie multiple times and know all the songs by heart and i agree that there are definitely some sexual elements to that song
The thing with Eric and Christine is that it isn't love, its primal attraction. Their drawn to each other, but not in the way that would be considered anything other than lust.
I'm sad for the Phantom but the guy is plain creepy he acts like Christine belongs to him.She's free to love Raoul if she wants to and Raoul is a much better choice i would have picked him too.He's sweet and loves her deeply not a possessive love like the Phantom with Raoul she's free and she loves him back and that's it.Christine and Raoul is the best <3
Gerard Butler is so great. i saw this set of interviews and behind the scenes stuff over on snapsnap and he just comes across so passionate and smart.
I'm gonna get hate for this, but whatever. To be honest, Gerard Butler messes this up. He played the Phantom really well, but he messed it up musically. Guy don't sing good enough to be Phantom, seriously. Its too rough to be gravelly, and not really gravelly to begin with. Sounds almost painful.
Patrick and Emmy are beautiful in this though. Patrick's voice is one of the best Raouls I've heard. Emmy sounds sweet too.
i don't think anyoneis arguing that both guys loved her, but the biggest thing here is: the phantom is pure awesomeness, with all that creepy, mysterious air about him. and raoul is . . . not.
@Neutomy LOL yeah. I'm a sixteen year old boy and LOVE this film and its music. It's so sad that the young people of today do not listen these beauties.
ur all saying that she should've been with phantom, but she did not love him. she was meant to be with raoul, and he was who she loved. in the end, she realized the phantom's soul was corrupt. Phantom was about to kill raoul, and she hated that, because Raoul was who she loved. she wouldn't bee happy with phantom, and he would hate seeing her suffer. in the end, she kissed him to save raoul cuz she loved R. that's what made him let her go. cuz he knew she didn't love him.
the phantom is willing to do whatever for his love, even if it means letting christine and raoul go and letting christine be with raoul. when you love something let it go.. and thats exactly what he did. if i were christine, id have the phantom let raoul go and id be with the phantom, because he TRUELY loves her. for all we know, raoul could have a girlfriend in spain! i love the phantom. XD <3333
The Phantom loves her there is no doubt about that, that is why he could make the right choice to let her go. Christine has loved Roul since she was very small, they can have the dream life together, the life that will make Christine happy. Even if she could love the Phantom she would never be happy with the life he could provide for her. A life in darkness, and no matter what he is not willing to give that up because, lets face it, the Phantom is a bit crazy...he kills people!!!
I think he fell in love with her voice, the way she fell in love with his. Obviously there are heavy sexual elements (Past the Point of No Return, anyone?) but they are drawn to each other because of music.
@McDreamy1606 Uhmmm... Have You Even Seen The Movie, Or At All Listened To The Songs ? If So, The Lyrics Maybe ? Past The Point Of No Return Is Not A Sexual Song At All. Sorry To Burst You're Bubble.
i don't think the phantom was interested in her sexually when she was 7--I think at first it was because he could certainly understand a child who was alone in the world, just as he had been. He heard her voice and could help her develop it as the Angel of Music her father promised to send her. ..Look at Charlotte church--she had a powerhouse voice early on.
it wasn't until she found out how easily he killed people he lost her. Rich, handsome man, or killer,
the relationship, the passion wassnt sexual until she was older. he was originally drawn to her voice, but she wasnt heard much on stage, and when he heard her (think of me), he knew what he had to do...
i freaking love the phantom! he's love was so pure after everything that he went through in his life. i really thought that the phantom and christine should have fallen for each other. i think it would be the perfect combo of light and dark. plus the phantom never knew what love was and for him to love her..i love him! hell if christine is gonna be like that..i'll take him!
if i'd look into the eyes of my life-taking boyfriend, my heart would be full of regrets at first... but then, if his love is as strong as the Phantom's, I'd try to understand him, find the reason why he's doing this and lead him out of the darkness and into the light... slowly of course.
I have to admit I fell in love with the phantom also, his love and devotion was absolutely beautiful. I think he would stop killing if Christine asked him to. He didn't know any other way. He never understood compassion and love.
He cared for her so much, it's indescrible. He would do all he could to make Christine happy, if it meant he could be with her. The whole reason he let her go with Raoul at the end was because she kissed him, and no one else had ever done it before.
His own mother wouldn't kiss him. He even said so when he had just taken her down to his lair (after Point of No Return), "This face which earned, a mother's fear and loathing. A mask, my first, unfeeling scrap of clothing..."That is just so hard for me to even imagine. ♥
i would have chosen the phantom if i were christine... sure he may have been a mad person and... killed people... but he just wants to be loved and not be misjudged because of his face... besides, he was the one who created the opera house... he just needs guidance...
"masquerade! paper faces on parade; masquerade! hide your face so the world will never find you..."
I kind of agree but i think the phantom was being a bit selfish in the end because he says he loves her but if he really did he would just want her to be happy and he wouldn't have made her choose like he did.
Then Christine kisses him but she only does it because she feels sorry for him which is just evil cos she kisses him and then buggers off and leaves him and its not a nice thing to do.
the Phantom is old enough to be her dad, and from the first time she went there to studie dance (age 7 i believe) he has been sexualy obsessed with her. would you really pick someone who from the time you were 7 has been kreeping you and fantasizing about you?
In my case, that's called a dream come true. I'm a boy, though. If she had a phantom mask on, that could be hot I think. I'd love to be seduced by a mentor, that would be very hot.
DON'T BE SAD GERALD BUTLER I STILL <3 U!! lol TEAM PHANTOM!!! haha thts my new thing instead of team jacob or team edward it's now team phantom and team raoul!! hehe!! I'M ON TEAM PHANTOM what are you guys on lol i'll start a new cult! haha!! I <3 this movie!!!!! :)
Hello! Here we are again, enjoying bits-and-pieces of The Phantom of the Opera. Received film version plus bonus and CD. How many times must one play these until some level of FULL is reached? NEVER - some kind of addictive drug - loving it !!! Finally getting into Gerard Butler as The Phantom - excellent contrast with Raoul - have grown to like his unique accent, speech/singing style. Still love Ramin dearly - play "Within the Six Square Inch" CD lots - favorite tune: 'New York State of Mind'.
Lmao. I have a crush on Patrick Wilson in this movie. When he almost died I cried in our choir class when I saw it. And I cried when he went with Christine. I was so jealous. They sound so great!(: I love this song. And them!(:
I'm with you. Patrick Wilson is very appealing; he has a smooth, gentle, tenor voice. You really wouldn't want a total DRIP playing Raoul - otherwise there wouldn't be much of a contest - the love triangle needs to be strong so that Christine's choice is a difficult one. Recently saw Patrick in "Passengers" strange ghostly drama.
I like this ending. It's more realistic. If she went with the Phantom, I would've been happier but less satisfied, in a way. Just imagine what you would do if you were in her position: Go with Roul and have a happy, innocent love, without any darkness or reminders of cruelty. OR go with the Phantom and stay hidden from the world, have a passionate love, but a constant reminder of bitterness. It's a really hard decision, but I would've chosen Roul too. 3rd POV & 1st POV has dif. results.
I really wish there was another ending to the movie...like when she came back to give him the ring she came back to stay instead and sent pretty boy on his way... but oh well...
I think the difference (in the movie) between Roul and the Phantom's love for her is that Roul loved her enough to die for her. The Phantom loved her enough to let her go (without killing Roul- no matter how tempting it was). Therefor if I were to pick one of them based on who loved me more I would choose the Phantom. Because dying is easy, letting go is hard.
You cannot close the acorn once the oak begins to grow, and you cannot close your heart to what it fears and needs to know; that the hardest part of love is letting go
@narutosfreakyfangirl this comment is very true and wise <3 also it proves you can judge a book by it's cover, or a person by their username, because i know that like i, you may be judged by having an anime/otaku username C: you're very right. (i would choose the phantom too..)
@narutosfreakyfangirl dying is not easy, maybe not as difficult as losing love. If this were dying for a cause like freedom, you would consider it the ultimate sacrifice.
@narutosfreakyfangirl I understand what you are trying to say, the phantom did have a heart of gold. but you must realize that to love someone so much and to be able to die for them is NOT AN EASY SACRIFICE. Ask your boyfriend if he'd die for you, I doubt he would actually do it. Raoul would, so the man truly loves Christine!
I was not saying that it was an easy choice, I am just saying that it is easier to die than let go of something you truly love. Raoul stated that he would rather him die than see her go with another man. As for the whole boyfriend thing I can't say- haven't looked for or had one.
You suck dude.How could no one want to not pick Eric?Though Roul's cute, he's a bloody fop he is!!!!Nothing more than a pretty boy who live off his fortune he is!!!Atleast Eric knows how cruel the world can be!!
So true! She started to have feelings for him when he took her with him to his 'house', but then she fainted when she saw the doll that looked exactly like her... So I think he had hypnotized her with his voice...
I understand his feelings, though, especially when he's singing, my heart breaks....but if I was in Christine's shoes, I would def not choose the Phantom...he's kinda creepy, watching her through her mirror...
omg soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooon lovely...i love singing this song, hehe i can hit all her notes^^
@Streynoch I agree...Raoul is just a pretty rich boy...you need more in a relationship....Phantom makes her shiver everytime he touches her. With Raoul that never happens
I don't believe she "chose" him. She loved him. As amazing as the Phantom was, and as much as he loved her, she loved Raoul, not the Phantom. If she had chosen the Phantom it would have been out of either fear for Raoul or pity.
@nekonekogami Totally right. The whole point of the story was that the Phantom had to let go his anger and jealousy and self-pity and realize that if he really cared about Christine he wouldn't be hurting her like he was. It was never about Christine choosing between him and Raoul.
@nekonekogami it was love for Raoul, and obssession lust and pity for the phantom, sometimes it's hard to distinguish the diffrences in each sensation and emotion. i adore this movie and im 16 years old, and a girl though, i do agree with mikewill9511, the youth of today dont know what they are missing, there minds are a jumbled mess of stereotypes.
@frozenheartsmelt15 Yes The Children Today, Such As Ourselves, Are Embedded Into Thinking That It Is More Important To Listen To Rappers And Such, What Most Of Us Do Not Understand Is That There Is Much More Enchanting Music Such As This Wonderful Love Movie. A Serenading Man With An Obsessive Love, Childhood Sweethearts, And A Choice That Changes Their Lives Forever. A Pity Some People Can't See Things Like That.
i feel for anyone who tries to do this movie after this one. It's totally impossible. Love this movie. Got to see it in IMAX when it came out. Totally amazing!
Shimmy, If you love him you need to tell him. I was once in this same place and I waited to long to tell her and the moment passed, and now it is my one regret. Even if he doesnt feel the same at least you will know, and if he does than it can be something wonderful. Good luck and trust in your heart.
one of my guy friends and I song this together for the talent show...it was pretty romantic...but the sad thing is that I like him more then a friend...but he doesn't know...and I dont think he likes me more then a friend....What do i do to tell him????Wahhhh!!!!! :(
...personal opinion: it depends on how well you know each other and how he is likely to react - it could ruin the friendship or make it stronger or he might even feel the same way...best to test the waters but more importantly, before you decide - lots of prayer!!! Proverbs 3:5-6. I hope it all works out for you =)
Just go for it. In the words of Alfred Tennyson, 'tis better to have loved and lost, than never to have loved at all.' As seriousvideofreak says, love is dangerous. it can ruin a good friendship, but it can create an even better one. You just have to take a gamble.
This is the saddest part for me, because despite how obsessive the phantom was, he loved Christine enough to kill for her. Call me crazy, but that is sexy! lol
I love this movie! I feel bad for the Phantom, but he stalked her and killed people for her....and he wanted her to live with him in a sewer place....I mean seriously!
My fave songs in the movie is all but my most love duet fave song is All I Ask Of You and Past The Point Of No Return... A love triangle between Phantom,Christine and Raoul...
yep i was so mad when he lost the girl and died alone and ended up having a terrible life. but oh well that ending makes the story touch you more than if there was a happy ending.
ok i LOVE this part i mean incredible really ! my heart soars when i hear this song and i know that is cheesy but knowing Roul loves her so much, but i do cry for the phantom!
Yah, me too. Poor Phantom, I really feel bad for him. Well I would feel angry if I was being betrayed by the only person I have ever loved. I would have reacted like the same. Can't wait till the musical comes back to my city! ^.^
I really love the part where Gerard is singing. It's so sad. Every time I watch it (and I've seen it about six or seven times) I cry at that part. I feel how sad he is by being betrayed by the one person he's ever loved in his life. :( I'd give him a hug and make him feel better. I think Christine should have stayed with Phantom.
The painn that must have went through the Phantoms heart :'( To let the love of your life go, it must have been the most difficult decision he has ever had to make. To all those people who say he didn't love Christine, and was just so called "obsessed and crazy". Put your selves in his shoes. In the case of the Phantom.

I think the difference (in the movie) between Roul and the Phantom's love for her is that Roul loved her enough to die for her. The Phantom loved her enough to let her go (without killing Roul- no matter how tempting it was). Therefor if I were to pick one of them based on who loved me more I would choose the Phantom. Because dying is easy, letting go is hard.

You cannot close the acorn once the oak begins to grow, and you cannot close your heart to what it fears and needs to know; that the hardest part of love is letting go

@narutosfreakyfangirl this comment is very true and wise <3 also it proves you can judge a book by it's cover, or a person by their username, because i know that like i, you may be judged by having an anime/otaku username C: you're very right. (i would choose the phantom too..)

@narutosfreakyfangirl dying is not easy, maybe not as difficult as losing love. If this were dying for a cause like freedom, you would consider it the ultimate sacrifice.
broadwayFan28 1 year ago
@narutosfreakyfangirl I understand what you are trying to say, the phantom did have a heart of gold. but you must realize that to love someone so much and to be able to die for them is NOT AN EASY SACRIFICE. Ask your boyfriend if he'd die for you, I doubt he would actually do it. Raoul would, so the man truly loves Christine!

@leadershipcouncil
I was not saying that it was an easy choice, I am just saying that it is easier to die than let go of something you truly love. Raoul stated that he would rather him die than see her go with another man. As for the whole boyfriend thing I can't say- haven't looked for or had one.

Haha, no she didn't make a mistake picking Raoul.
Would you want to live underground for the rest of your life?
And the Phantom was infatuated with her, it wasn't love. She was scared of him!

You suck dude.How could no one want to not pick Eric?Though Roul's cute, he's a bloody fop he is!!!!Nothing more than a pretty boy who live off his fortune he is!!!Atleast Eric knows how cruel the world can be!!

some might argue that there is no difference between love & infatuation:) that they are kinda one & the same to a certain extent!

Except the Phantom had lived enough life and seen and participated in enough theater to know what was true and what was facsimile.
Yuyuyami 2 years ago
So true! She started to have feelings for him when he took her with him to his 'house', but then she fainted when she saw the doll that looked exactly like her... So I think he had hypnotized her with his voice...
I understand his feelings, though, especially when he's singing, my heart breaks....but if I was in Christine's shoes, I would def not choose the Phantom...he's kinda creepy, watching her through her mirror...

@Streynoch
I don't believe she "chose" him. She loved him. As amazing as the Phantom was, and as much as he loved her, she loved Raoul, not the Phantom. If she had chosen the Phantom it would have been out of either fear for Raoul or pity.
nekonekogami 7 months ago in playlist only phantom of the opera songs 4
@nekonekogami Totally right. The whole point of the story was that the Phantom had to let go his anger and jealousy and self-pity and realize that if he really cared about Christine he wouldn't be hurting her like he was. It was never about Christine choosing between him and Raoul.
RandomJayne 7 months ago 3
@nekonekogami it was love for Raoul, and obssession lust and pity for the phantom, sometimes it's hard to distinguish the diffrences in each sensation and emotion. i adore this movie and im 16 years old, and a girl though, i do agree with mikewill9511, the youth of today dont know what they are missing, there minds are a jumbled mess of stereotypes.

@frozenheartsmelt15 Yes The Children Today, Such As Ourselves, Are Embedded Into Thinking That It Is More Important To Listen To Rappers And Such, What Most Of Us Do Not Understand Is That There Is Much More Enchanting Music Such As This Wonderful Love Movie. A Serenading Man With An Obsessive Love, Childhood Sweethearts, And A Choice That Changes Their Lives Forever. A Pity Some People Can't See Things Like That.

Shimmy, If you love him you need to tell him. I was once in this same place and I waited to long to tell her and the moment passed, and now it is my one regret. Even if he doesnt feel the same at least you will know, and if he does than it can be something wonderful. Good luck and trust in your heart.

ShimmyRiley 2 years ago
...personal opinion: it depends on how well you know each other and how he is likely to react - it could ruin the friendship or make it stronger or he might even feel the same way...best to test the waters but more importantly, before you decide - lots of prayer!!! Proverbs 3:5-6. I hope it all works out for you =)
seriousvideofreak 2 years ago
Just go for it. In the words of Alfred Tennyson, 'tis better to have loved and lost, than never to have loved at all.' As seriousvideofreak says, love is dangerous. it can ruin a good friendship, but it can create an even better one. You just have to take a gamble.

I really love the part where Gerard is singing. It's so sad. Every time I watch it (and I've seen it about six or seven times) I cry at that part. I feel how sad he is by being betrayed by the one person he's ever loved in his life. :( I'd give him a hug and make him feel better. I think Christine should have stayed with Phantom.
