The Phantom of the Opera

I saw this movie last night, and although I don't think the movie itself was bad, I feel disappointed that I saw it. I would have much rather seen the real thing.

here's my reasoning. I don't think they did it right. I think they should have made into a real movie. Unfortunately they simply took the play and filmed it... mayby made some better sets but in essence that is what they did. I think it would have been much better if they kept the idea and wrote a new screenplay. It still would have honored the original but in a different form. Have you seen Chicago? That I think is how they should have done this, it was done as a movie based on the play, not as a filmed play, but it still had the same effect. I thought it was great, and I can still go see the play and really enjoy it!

I do think this helped a bit because now if I ever really go see the real Phantom (I really hope to someday) I will better understand the story. (hopefully)
