personally i would’ve gone with the phantom. my aunt made an excellent point the other day, she said “he loved christine so much that he let her go because that’s what she wanted.” he does have morals and he really does love her. phantom for the win !!!!!!

he kidnaps her, throws her to the ground for taking off his mask, manipulates her into feeling bad for him and murders several people. he never loved her, he loved having something to possess, something to control. the moment of compassion at the end when he lets Christine and Raul go is because he finally has realized the fatal mistakes he's made, that was when he truly fell in love with her, and he knew what was best for her was not him, so he let her go. but we shouldn't praise this one moment of self realization and kindness. this shouldn't be a good enough reason to want Christine to end up with him. the decisions he makes leading up to his act of mercy shouldn't be overlooked.

This is so sad because it shows when hes all alone in his cave and plus this looks like before he capture raoul and I can feel his pain 😓

I don't care what anyone says. I would've stayed with him down below the opera house. Though I don't praise some of the choices he made, I don't believe he was evil. He wasn't a villain. He was a misunderstood, lonely, broken soul who latched onto the first bit of light he could find. That light being Christine. A girl who had so much love, kindness, and compassion in her heart, and he hoped she would have enough for him as well.

Sir Webber told himself that he didn't care Butler is not a trained singer. He said what is important in the movie is to convey the feelings in a different way, and the emotions it evokes. Cinema and musical theater are different.

This is the melody that plays after Why So Silent, when Erik looks at Chriatine and they share this moment..until he breaks it and goes "your chains are still mine, you belong to me!"

Honestly, Gerard is my favorite phantom. I love this version of this music and Also Emmy is my fav Christine. Before you think I’m crazy, they did such a good job bringing this to the live screen and making me feel something, sure, I think ramin and the other phantoms were more trained (same with the Christines) but I prefer the acting here. I cry every time at this movie and it really makes me feel something. Gerard as Erik gave him emotion and depth, and I think that the vocals are good as is, people get mad because since he lives in a opera house he should be an opera singer, but he just lives there and isn’t an opera singer, so why should his voice have to sound like one? I think the only one that makes more sense as an opera singer is Christine because she did preform, but she also learned from someone who wasn’t an opera singer. And Raoul also doesn’t need to be one (realistically, that is) The film version honestly did a pretty solid job at capturing the 1980s version.

He's using "teacher" as a way to groom Christine so that he can control her and make her his. He's really more of a composer than a 'teacher," but he did do a good job of training Christine (which shows that he can certainly teach and help others). Another thing, I've had singing teachers that were not particularly "great." They weren't bad singers, but none of them were "great" as if they should be on stage. If they were great they would be professional singers and not teachers.

Why did they delete this scene? Now that I know about it, this the story of Phantom shown on the movie doesn't make sense and it's not the full perspective. I feel so disappointed with the movie I have beloved. If he could sing this to Christine instead of being cruel to other people, she would stay with him because they understood eachother. He was the only person who loved her truly and cared for her career, Raoul didn't care if she sings or not, he was acting just like a jealous teenager.

I really liked this song and I never knew why they cut it out. I think maybe it gets us to know the Phantom a little too much and takes away his mystique.

They should make a new version with this song / scene in it. Beautiful

this makes me cry sniff but it has a story of his life

I always wondered where this would be in the movie itself, clearly after he found out Raoul and her kissed but i imagine it was the part right before the Masqurade in as we can see the play for Don Juan Triumphant is in the back but still in the process, and if you watch the scene where Erik and Christine walk up the stairs to meet, the instrumental part of this plays for a bit before he gets mad. At this point he isn't mad at her, he believes that she is just being fooled by Raoul since he is handsome and only now noticed her both as a person and a talent. If anyone has any thoughts when this is go ahead and comment, im actually curious.
