And let's all remember this was years before Hamilton. Lin has been incredibly talented. And this broadway show did really well... like really well. Actually George Washington in Hamilton played the young man with the Suit And Tie on in the movie in the Broadway version. Another thing I love about Lin. He keeps his people close to him. Like Adam Sandler. Ugh I could go on and on. It was a great musical.
Leslie Grace and Melissa Barrera are both so beautiful and their singing voices are equally beautiful. Christopher Jackson has a cameo, it made me laugh.
I was worried about what Lin would do with his friends who are now too old to play those young characters. I was so glad that he still put them in there somewhere. Love Lin for that. And Christopher Jackson has a recurring role on a TV show. So he's not hurting for cash lol.
The original release date before the pandemic, was supposed to be June 20, 2020. So they were planning on doing what you said would be cool with the Fiesta poster.
Bro I feel so lucky to have been able to see this Live in 2011 when I was a kid. I was so surprised a lot of musical fans and musical people who've reacted to this online either havent seen the show or had never even heard of it before Hamilton. They actually tweeked a lot of the song lyrics and dialogue and cut a lot of characters, as well as added some. But after seeing the story after so long, I still sang along in the theatre... when i wasn't crying. It truly is a fantastic show. Alza la bandera Mexicana!
Have you ever went to watch the Broadway version? (even just a bootleg), because I highly recommend watching it first so you get to appreciate the characters there, since characters like Ms. Rosario is totally removed from the movie version
Thanks for posting for your subscribers! Talk about an opening scene & opening number all rolled into ONE!!!! That’s LMM for ya. & yes, brilliant marketing! Introduce all the characters & leave the viewer wanting MORE!
Corey Hawkins was Dr Dre in the NWA movie. And they also tried to do a season of ‘24’ with him instead of Kiefer Southerland. Until I saw this, I had no idea he was a triple threat. Big time talent.
YAYYY i was waiting for u to post a video related to in the heights, i just loved it! the songs, the characters, the plot! i still listen carnaval del barrio and basically all the ost on repeat!! west side story and in the heights were the musicals i was most waiting to see on the big screen. ith it's such an iconic musical, it will always be my favourite
Really enjoying all the In the Heights content! I know you’ve probably got a long list of songs you want to react to, but the Broadway nerd in me really want to ask if you plan on going back and finishing out listening to the OBC of in the Heights, maybe after you watch/react to the film? If only to see the changes made in the songs they kept, and to hear the ones that were cut (some of my favorites on that list being ‘Sunrise’, the Act 2 opening number, ‘Enough’ sung by Nina’s mom who doesn’t appear in the film at all*, and ‘Everything I Know,’ an emotional solo form Nina) Again, I understand if there’s other stuff you want to get to/you’re getting tired of In the heights, but I figured I would ask just the once. *technically, as the character is dead. But for a split second in the Rosario’s apartment, during ‘Breathe’ there’s a picture frame that has a picture of a woman in it-on the day of filming, Lin says he called the actress who played Camilla on Broadway and had her send a headshot to put int hat photo frame so she could still ‘be’ Nina’s mom. I tried to look for it on my second time seeing the film, but it really is a blink-and-you’ll-miss-it thing.
Thanks for doing this! Adore this song and the choreography... tells so much for those of us who know about it but have never seen the stage production. Maybe do a review if you get to see the movie!
When usnavi says those lines u know “yea I’m a street light chilling in the heat... (etc)” just saying if u listen to it again you’ll notice that it’s to the tune of Hamilton or my shot to be more specific
I super recommend watching a recording of the Broadway show or at least finishing the Broadway soundtrack, bc there are a lot of songs they took out of the movie that help clear up the story too
Hey Jacob, when Usnavi says "I'm switching up the beat" the beat changes to "96,000". Lin loves layering connections in his songs.
Sonny is the funniest character. He had me rolling.
Him and his crab !
“He’s forming an 💫artistic opinion💫”
I'm 36 and I work with a 19 year old who reminds me so much of Sonny. I make sure I encourage his hopes and dreams whenever I can.

Amazing! Lin Manuel Miranda is a genius! Congratulations to all the artists on this collaboration! Loved your reaction! Good vibes, from NYC!

I always laugh at the guy's face in the Bodega when he opens the orange soda and it spills. 😂
LOL
I definitely hear Lin's voice throughout the song ... I herd lots of Hamilton like sounds as well ... love it ❤️❤️
Totally!

@@Gruvmpy thank you
Those syncopated sounds is just one example of Lin-Manuel Miranda's genius
Legit

Benny was in Straight Outta Compton, he was Dr. Dre.
and from Kong Skull Island
I knew he looked familiar
When usnavi says those lines u know “yea I’m a street light chilling in the heat... (etc)” just saying if u listen to it again you’ll notice that it’s to the tune of Hamilton or my shot to be more specific
Yesss
Yes! There are a lot of great overlaps between them, though it was In the Heights first with My Shot referencing this part second
The guy who plays Benny played Dr. Dre in Straight Outta Compton
Benny’s one of my favourite
Appreciate you posting so much
I liked the cultural aspects. I’m Puerto Rican myself
Thank you sooo much it really means a lot to me!

Watch the piragua video and the Reprise. Its funny
It’s my favourite somg
That guy you were talking about was from Straight outta Compton
You should react to Anthony Ramos he really got some good songs.
Products pay to be in movies almost exclusively since about 2016.
Benny is played by the guy who was Dr Dre in Straight Outta Compton
Omg yes
If you haven't already seen the movie Baby Driver, you should see it. I think you will like it.
Nyc home can't stop being proud of it
Fun fact: the original song had Lin manuel playing usnavi: it’s super cool
Please react to The Rose Song by Olivia Rodrigo!!
Benny= DR Dre from straight out of compton
