That's not a movie ^^^ 
I saw all of the awesome musicals and I skipped over the 'movie' part...which means Les Mis no longer applies, as the movie wasn't so much Les Miserables as it was Lame Miserable. Hearing some actors attempt to sing along with whatever Russell Crowe was attempting to do was just painful.
Um...forget I said anything...I'm just gonna go get a hot pretzel.

I love that this has crossed media so smoothly from book to stage to screen, all are amazing in their own right.

I couldn't watch it. The original is just too good. Same with the Music Man. They stopped making guys like Buddy Hackett back in the 60's... The biggest problem with remaking a beloved classic is that it will never be as good, unless it veers far enough from the original to become good in it's own right... See also: Johnny Depp as Willy Wonka.
The Phantom of the Opera, musically speaking, is my favorite. I am not a fan of the dark spirit within it, but musically it pulls me in. There are funnier songs, better show numbers, but the mystery-feel of the music in Phantom is, by far, my favorite.
Related note, I like Cats for creativity. South Pacific, West Side Story, Singin in the Rain, and My Fair Lady intrigued me as a child.
I like how West Side Story is honest about prejudice and tries to bring real (or imagined) "sides" together.
Singin in the Rain is kind of cheesy, but I am grateful for how it depicts the changing landscape of cinematography.
Before the internet, My Fair Lady and Oliver Twist introduced me to the different parts of earlier British societies.
South Pacific snores at moments, but it looks at wartime relationships with a heavy dose of comedy interspersed, which I like.
Cannot forget Godspell, set in 1970s New York. If one ever wondered the role of John the Baptist, watch Godspell. He repeats it to where you will never forget. Hint: Prepare your ears My major frustration with the imagery of Godspell is the final song and the main character's position. However, many people have been drawn to Christ (at least to remember what he's done) through this musical.
Here is the last part of Godspell, from a musical standpoint:

Okay, so I have a confession to make...
I have never actually seen Fiddler on the Roof.
After seeing the posts on here about the film I will definitely watch it soon.
[HR][/HR]I have never even heard of [FONT="]Koyaanisqatsi. I watched the clip posted by posthuman and was instantly intrigued. I had to google the movie to see what it was about. What an interesting concept for a film! Thanks for sharing that with us posthuman!

This or the music box scene in Elfen Lied that I can't seem to find (the one where they are kids and Lucy struggles to make friends for the first time with Kouta).
Poor Lucy and her issues. There are lots of kids with issues like hers, unfortunately, and she has good reason to have them. Sad but true.
It's still heartbreaking to watch.

Hi tasha,
As a child the first musical movie i remember was The sound of music. Live musicals arent that common around here, and unless ur in metro manila or go regularly, what ul get is recorded stuff-).
Never got to watch many either, however, but got acquainted w/ many songs thru music sheets. So we were singing Eidelweiss, Sunrise sunset, Day by day, Impossible dream, Where is love (from Oliver!), The candyman, Tomorrow, One hand one heart.. long before i really saw or watched some of the musicals. The west side story is one i saw before high school, i think, so lots of its songs kept ringing in mind when looking for songs to sing or play.
Not been listening or watching that much of these recently however, but maybe i'll dig some memorable numbers in time.
