When you are young and immature, you watch this and think, "Go away Raoul!...Christine and the Phantom belong together!" Then when you grow up, you realize that Raoul really was the good guy and the right choice. The Phantom didn't love her, he was just controlling, abusive, and obsessed. He was always "punishing" her for not doing and being what he wanted. Raoul was kind, giving, patient and forgiving.

Kristina Cassandra Zaragoza oh no! I don’t recommend Love Never Dies. As much as I love the music, I hate that everyone was out of character. For example, they only made Raoul a drunkard who is in serious debt to have a reason why Christine should pick the Phantom over Raoul. Also, what Meg did was way out of character as well. Yes, I get that it was an accident, but she wouldn’t be jealous of Christine in the first place. It’s just not like her. Also, I don’t like how the events that occurred in LND doesn’t match with what happened in POTO. Why would they make Christine die at a young age in LND, but in POTO she dies of old age? ALW should not have created LND. To me, it seems like he only made it for money and not to keep the story alive. Because if he did want to keep the story alive, he should have made it make sense. However, instead, he made it into a wattpad fanfiction story. Now, if I view LND as a separate story and POTO never existed, then I would like it. But since that’s not the case, I don’t. So, I like to pretend LND doesn’t exist lol. But once again I still love the music in LND, I just don’t like the story overall.

whutzat the thing is, well first I haven’t watched this in a long time so I kinda forgot the movie but I watch the 25h Anniversary everyday since I bought it bcuz I loved it to much😂 but in one of the scenes in the 25th Anniversary Raoul is pushing Christine to sing something she dosent want to only to Laure the phantom and finally kill him, that’s kinda a reason I like phantom and Christine. Erik (the phantom) was hiding in darkeness all these years and he didn’t know how to tell Christine how much he wants her and loves her in a kind loving way so instead he did this, I’m still a teen so imma wait till I’m a little older to see how I feel abt Christine and phantom and Christine and Raoul. But the thing is in the 25th Anniversary to me it’s so hard to choose weather she should stay with Raul or the phantom same with the movie. Idk if you’ve watched LND but the thing that I love is that Christine is kinda with both of them so if u haven’t watch LND to see what I mean. But I just hate the ending I cried from sadness and a hatred for that ending ughhhhhh. WHY ALW WHYYYYYYYYYYYY!!!!!!!!!!

“Music of the Night” is the Phantom’s love song to Christine. He sings it all by himself, indicating that he is controlling and possessive towards her, and won’t let her be her own person. “All I Ask of You” is Raoul’s love song to Christine. This is a duet. This indicates that Raoul is encouraging and patient towards Christine, and lets her voice her opinions instead of making her his puppet. No wonder she chose Raoul.

I always had a sinking feeling that Christine was betraying the phantom, that she left his deep devotion to her for a petty boy who gave her flowers and was nice to look at, until I realized just recently that Christine's love for Erik is Stockholm syndrome, and Raul is leading her out of a lifelong deception and swirling nightmare geniusly designed by Erik to trap her. I listened to this song for the millionth time once and realized that until she loved Raul she didn't realize what she had wasn't true.

I attempted to watch other vocalists/performers perform this and I didn’t like it.., hated it actually. Their voices sounded good no doubt, but their voices just didn’t suit the character and the vibrato was always so cringe...but then, I went to see the live broadway musical (saw it twice when I visited NYC) and I cried throughout the whole thing lol. You can’t go to NYC and NOT see POTO! Nothing can beat the LIVE version or cast from NYC. (The movie doesn’t count of course. They’re both so different but extremely enjoyable to ME.)

How far Patrick Wilson has fallen these days. Now, he's just an actor starring in scare-jump horror bland movies and CGI superhero movie with paper thin emotional stakes.

Patrick Wilson was the perfect choice for Raoul. He has that very Prince Charming voice. So sweet, gentle and reassuring.

The fact Emmy Rossum was 17 and having a vocal ability is incredible.

Coolest thing about the movie adaptation is that they were able to use a complete orchestra while the broadway version couldn’t because of space. So the movie is how you are actually supposed to hear the music that Andrew Lloyd Webber composed. It’s amazing.

I truly admire the tender love between Christine and Raoul. Erik is a wonderful character, but I believe he needed first some introspection or a good therapist in order to know how to love himself first, forgive the past and learn to "give" and not just "take" Christine is totally inspiring, since she could "saw" the very essence of the Phantom, as a human, as a living being, she recognised his inherent beauty and potential of goodness. In a way, Christine really "loved" the Erik, which I understood as the epitome of "love your enemy" and "love one another". That's true compassion. That fuels change in the most damaged people. But nobody is obliged to "save" another one. Christine honored herself and choose her freedom and happiness in Raoul. In the end, Erik let her go, because he realized that their love was pure, and he was trying to possess her while Raoul was risking his life to free her. Love is about appreciation. Thanks for reading... I hope you have a beautiful day and find an uplifting love that makes your soul soar!

Savannah Simonton When I first watched it I thought so too. but just recently at my fine arts school we actually did The phantom of the opera and actually being in it opens up ur eyes so much more, because though the phantom deserved love he was decieving her, pretending to be her fathers angle yet also falling in love with her. he wanted to keep her all to himself to a point where she would have no life, in a world full of darkness. and Raoul saved her from it. Its hard not to see the beauty in the phantom but there is a swirling cloud of darkness that also surrounds him. He felt like Christine brought the true angle he was out to the light. though I have to, admit her ending up with the phantom would have been a happily ever after beautiful ending.But thats why I love it so much, it reflects how life can really be and the true faces that love can have. and it connects to so many people

I am the biggest sucker for thie song. Every time, the desire for the love described washes over me like a tsunami.

Ha, I’m playing highway to hell on mine.

I have to say, the amount of people in the comments saying they either used to or still do prefer Christine with the Phantom worry me slightly.....

For a long time, I've been enchanted by the Phantom of the Opera, how dark, handsome, and mysterious he is. And to a small degree, I still am. In a fictional setting, it's downright sexy for a tall, dark, handsome stranger to seduce you with his powerful charisma. From the safety of our screens, we can be enchanted by this taboo. But in real life, it's a whole other ballgame. Real life Phantoms really are scary. They produce abusive relationships full of one-sidedness. I just came from watching Music of the Night, and it's an interesting contrast between that one and All I Ask of You. While Music of the Night is the Phantom asking Christine to give her whole life, identity, and willpower over to him, Raul in All I Ask of You is offering her peace, comfort, true love, protection, and joy, and asking her to give him the opportunity to give her all these wonderful things. And Christine wants that, too. With Raul and Christine, it's a mutual exchange of love. I especially love when Raul says, "I'm here," it's so touching and warming. :) I think the reason many people are romantically attracted to the Phantom is not just the tragic character, but also, going back to the taboo, what we may really want is not the one-sided nightmare of an abusive relationship, but maybe a partner who is good but knows how to be "bad", and by that I mean just in the seductive way who knows how to be dashing and alluring, not in the way that wants to dominate, control, imprison, and brainwash. The Phantom may have some degree of caring for Christine, but that is far overshadowed by his possessiveness and seeing her as more of a pretty little doll who can fulfill his darkest wishes. Raul sees her as a human being, whom he wants in his life to love him, but he also wants to love and take care of her. Don't go for the seductive request for one-sidedness, go for the warmth of a loving mutual exchange! :)

I was flipping through the tv channels when I saw this movie playing during this scene. I think it was only less than a year since it came out and I was only around 9 or 10 when I saw this scene. Needless to say I quit flipping the channels because this scene alone made me weep tears.

To anyone who is on Erik’s side, remember that he met Christine as a CHILD. He GROOMED her into thinking she loved him. There was never love. It was curiosity and fascination by Christine, and obsession on Erik’s part. I can’t believe there are people who believe deception, mental and emotional abuse and manipulation, murder, and kidnapping is romantic and considered love.

123bardox “Love Never Dies” was not written by Leroux, so it’s not canon to the original novel. It’s basically fanfiction... Besides, are we seriously going to believe that Christine would be in true love with a man that groomed her since childhood through manipulation, emotional abuse, and kidnapping? He was obsessed with her, not in love with her. He didn’t even know how to love himself, so he could not truly love someone else. That was the whole point of the novel - showing that a person like Raul is the right choice, who actually treats another with love and respect rather than control.

And this is exactly why I have been a fan of Patrick Wilson since 😭

Patrick's voice completely embodies Raoul's character in the musical. Raoul represents warmth and light. Hence, his voice is calming soothing and clear. Which directly contrasts the Phantom who represents mystery and darkness, hence the Phantom's voice is powerful and intense. I really love this rendition by Patrick and honestly one of the few times I feel truly rooting for Raoul and Christine..

Snape's love for Lily was definitely a more selfish kind, but it wasn't an obsession.
