Shouting is a legit bar-band technique!
Stop means no. And no means no. So . . . stop.

Buffista Movies 7: Brides for 7 Samurai
A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I actually prefer shout singing to vibrato, but I realize that is my prejudice. I can't even deal with Phantom because Sarah Brightman. She is number 4 on my most hated things list.
To bring it back to movies, my most hated thing is when people take a song like Grease's 'There Are Worse Things..." and turn it into a crazy showcase belt number.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why?
Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.
To be fair to Amanda Seyfried, Cosette is sort of a problematic character in that she is necessary, but doesn't as an adult have a very compelling story or acting objective, compared to almost every major or minor character. I don't really know what to do with it, either.
I agree, Cosette has always been more plot device than character. Seyfried's singing in that clip just doesn't help with a song I already didn't care much for. (Though, thinking about it, all of Cosette's songs are at the bottom of the list for me.) I don't have an opinion of her one way or another as an actress.

In Phantom? Or overall?

Re: The Hobbit. Rereading, I find myself wondering how they are getting multiple movies, let alone 3-hour ones.

Apparently the unexpected party goes on for 45 minutes.

I guess that's what happens when you don't plan well.

Sarah Brightman, in general. I particularly hated her as Carrie Pipperidge, in a weird album only version of Carousel.You wouldn't think this would come up much in life, but one of my friends, is a huge fan, and he is the kind of fan that has encyclopedic knowledge and is driven to collect every single thing about/with/converning that person.
My top three are: 1. George W. Bush, 2. Scooby-Doo and 3> Dave Navarro.

25 minutes is just Bilbo running out the back door and dashing into the Shire TJ's to get more biscuits. Then he sings a song about how long the lines were at checkout.

WTF did Scooby-Doo do to you?

I'm beginning to fear that Peter Jackson may have permanently succumbed to the curse of Oscar where what made a director's work interesting up until they win is overwhelmed by too much respectability. He really needed to do something small and speedy after LOTR and so far he hasn't.
