      @@EmilyGloeggler7984 In the novel "Phantom of the Manhattan" that this was based on, Raoul was unable to have children so Raoul knew all along he was not the father but if I recall correctly, he didn't care and wanted to raise the child as his own as in the novel the Phantom raped Christine instead of it being consensual.

      I read a post in Instagram Ramin said, "When I first played the Phantom I decided to make him young, and studied Asperger's syndrome as a slight back-story because I saw some documentaries on unexplained geniuses and Asperger's came up. I kept that totally to myself, but then I got two letters from fans mentioning certain mannerisms of my Phantom, saying they really connected with him and that they had Asperger's. That was a big validation. I felt: Wow, this is affecting people like it affected me."
      That mentioned, and I've been watching PoTO related videos these past days since the 25th anniversary. He is the best one because Ramin put tons of details on his Phantom than the other Phantoms. They had different charm, but Ramin's was the most relatable Phantom I've seen so far. I hope I can watch him and Sierra in PoTO someday even though it's quite impossible since I live in Indonesia :(

    I much prefer this version of Beauty Underneath than the one from Australia. Erik was rescued by Madam Giry from a travelling circus, where he presumably was put into a cage for all to observe (like an animal). There’s no reason why the Phantom would treat other disfigured people the same way (by putting them in weird glass boxes in the Australia versions).

      Phantoms and automatons for your fascination". And, because I didn't see any automatons, I thougth the actors were representing them. They even kind of look like those fortune tellers machines. But I could be wrong. (I apologise if my english is incomprehensible hahaha, It isn't my first language and, even with Translator's help, I might have really messed up.)

      Yeah... It got really mixed reviews when it first opened in West End in 2010, many critics hated it and they had to make some changes to the show. This is filmed after major changes, and in my opinion, they should've filmed this. But Andrew was more happy with the Australian production and people there wanted to film it and he gave permission to do so. I honestly love this version more than the Australian/current tour version. Really don't even wanna see the touring version, because it's too different from the original.

I have seen many people say that when they went to see LND, many people left during intermission.

Christine's love for the Phantom is exceptionally dissonant with everything from the original as well. Yes she did love Erik in her own way he had been a long time mentor, comfort, and friend but she never appeared to love him romantically. She pitied and felt empathy for him mourning the loss of their connection. But that was it. Then we get told oh she actually did love him before despite you know EVERYTHING she said in the lair and her arch about growing a backbone. And no longer allowing others to dictate her decisions. Ramin and Sierra's chemistry nearly sells it if you forget the original completely. But I literally cannot understand how one can like something that spits on everything wonderful about the original?
      I wish Erik and Christine had gotten together but THIS isn't the way to do it. It feels more like a half baked fanfiction which is almost an insult to fanfiction because I've read better versions of how to get these two together.
      So how can you like it? Genuinely curious?

      @@sundus928I really like “The World’s More Full of Weeping Than You Can Understand” by Mertens on ao3. It takes place a few years after the original story. Erik still lives under the Opera House but he’s just kinda tired and sad after everything that happened so he’s not doing villain stuff anymore. Christine’s engagement to Raoul never worked out (not through anyone’s fault but just because sometimes that’s how life is) and she does professional singing for a while but one day loses her voice from an illness. She goes back to Paris because she doesn’t really know what to do with herself anymore and they reconnect and help each other heal. I really like it because it has lots of cute fluffy couple moments as they grow closer but also lots of nice angst. I also really enjoy Erik still having most of his insecurities and vulnerabilities but finally mature and self-aware enough not to take them out on other people anymore. It makes him internalise all of it which is good angst reading but also provides so many hurt/comfort opportunities for him and Christine 👌
      It borrows from a ton of different Phantom media so it’s not exclusively musical-compliant but I don’t think it would be hard to follow if you’ve only watched that. It’s a really comfy fic - not exactly action-packed but I found myself staying up sooooo late unable to put it down nonetheless.

      Except he's actually significantly LESS sympathetic in LND. He isn't a monster in phantom (at least not ramins version) he's a very damaged man who has suffered great cruelty and loneliness who didn't full understand the concept of love. His actions are wrong but you get how he got there and the character works because he learns mercy at the end and let's christine go. Here he had a successful business isn't living in a cellar due to the oztacization of society and seems to have learned nothing actually going as far as to THREATEN TO KILL A CHILD!

      Personally I don't consider this as canon as a sequel to POTO. I treat it as more of a What If scenario, because there's some inconsistencies that don't match up with the POTO. Idk it just doesn't seem like it would relate to POTO, just using it's characters.

      I agree. I really enjoyed the London Cast Album, so when it was announced it was coming to Australia, I was so excited. I went and saw it in Melbourne and, honestly, I was disappointed. I mean, sure, everyone did an amazing job and it was visually beautiful. I just didn't enjoy Ben Lewis as the Phantom. Maybe it's because Ramin's Phantom is so ingrained in my head, I don't know. I also didn't like the changes to the songs, especially Only For You/Only For Him. That was one of my favourites from the cast album and I didn't like how it was in the Australian production.
