i respect your opinion. but really, think about this. people change over ten years of their life! are YOU the SAME you were ten years ago??exactly. So, raoul COULD in fact change over that time. And with the phantoms case, he could change also. America is a very different place than paris, and since he is more out and about in LND, rather than hiding in an opera house in POTO, he is going to be more social and mentally different. So yeah, people DO change, and so can the characters in the play.

@possessivepansy I agree that they could change, I just don't think that the way they changed works.

I just saw the original a few nights ago and it reaffirmed to me that there is no need for a sequel.

No meneace and horror are you KIDDING ME! This is not for you. But I saw the show last tuesday just got home.

WRONG! She doesn't choose to stay with Eric. The Phantom and Roaul make a bet if she sings he leaves if not Raoul takes her back. Gastov goes missing and finds meg with them then she shoots her.

[animelover13579]

@ThePhantomFanatic Yeah, but they make the bet without her knowing the consequences of her actions... Not very menacing to me, sounds like he took advantage of a poor drunk guy...

I believe Raoul says it best.

"Clearly, Madame Giry, genius has turned to madness."

The original changed my perception of music. Pity I've only seen/heard the film version.

[animelover13579]

@SquallLionhart409 I agree 100%. You should definitely see the stage show sometime, it's amazing.

Also, side note, FFVIII fan? I love Final Fantasy!

I'm glad you posted this. I am heartbroken the characters were so smeared on with you know what. It is like a god awful fan fiction. The great thing about the original is they are more real as characters. The Phantom is a deep and passionate person but damaged, Raoul is boring but has a good heart. Christine is compassionate but weak willed. Making Meg the villain is an abomination. Flawed and real! The great thing is we can always pretend it doesn't exist.

You go!!! I hate the plot of this being a relativaly new phan (only about 2 years) and having read the book, seen the movie, and listened to the cd like to many times to count, this plot anges me.

[lsf1156]

The first movie now has a problem. When Christine's tombstone is shown she died at about the age of 60. And the sixty-something Raoul looks like the elder aristocrat he is; not some old drunk. Finally it is clear that the Phantom is still in France since he leaves a rose at her grave. This sequel leaves a real problem with story continuity.

Love Never Dies is a major slap in the face to fans of The Phantom of the Opera.

'The Heart is Slow to Learn' has beautiful lyrics - 'Love Never Dies' has pathetic lyrics!

@mushypeas10 that was AWESOME! AGREED!!!

[ThePhantomFanatic]

@animelover13579 Yes, but Raoul pissed him off by saying "I beat him once i can do it again." And the horror was when she got shot. I jumped three times during the show. I was in row G stalls. Freaking amazing SEATS!
