I can't decide which deformity was more pathetic. This one or the 2004 one...I'm leaning toward 2004.

[LerouxsPhantom]

@GrobanitePhan: Definitely 2004. At least this one looks like a deformity caused by a burn. The one in the 2004 movie looks like an allergic reaction, sunburn & a rash, not a birth defect.

Wasnt there supposed to have been a sequel called The Climax ?

[LerouxsPhantom]

@WDI2008: Actually, there IS one! :) The PhantomReviewer talks about it in his review for this movie.

Thanks for uploading this film, I've been wanting to see it for a long time.

[LerouxsPhantom]

@ThomasAnime: My pleasure!

That really sucks.. D: the Phantom and Christine didn't even get to interact much.. and I feel like that ending really shows that Christine really did care about Claudin, since she just left for her career instead of having love. She's taking the path the Phantom wanted her to! HOW SWEET.

I really love the concerto! It's one of the most beautiful pieces I've ever heard in a Phantom movie.

Thank you for the upload!

1925-version is still the best.

That was pathetic! So happy and gay! I really had my hopes up - I wish we saw more of the phantom,,,,, he was the only thing that made it interesting!

[XxXChikis]

this version was really fake and gay ! the orginal and 2004 was wayyy better than this chizz

[Monkeyballmania]

And we present to you....the 2 gay Raouls!

[MsCloverHeart]

I hate that people can not just sit down and enjoy the movie, why you have always to criticize something of EACH VERSION!?

If you want to see something exactly similar to the book , keep with the book, don't spect the perfect similar version, or don't spect a Phantom that looks actually like the one from the book!

@JudgeMagisterDelita- Yes, I quite agree. It is a very good song. I need to find the sheet music for it. I would love to play it for myself.

It is a pity though, for they didn't really show the Phantom (Rains) until the last, like, 20 minutes of the movie. That is pretty much my only complaint.

...And the two Raouls run off into the sunset together. The end. :)

[JudgeMagisterDelita]

2:45 is a great piano song. I used to have it in my head all the time.

Even though this is very inaccurate to the book, I feel like this version had the best story to it. Claude Rains is also the best Phantom in my opinion.
