I totally agree. It was my first movie viewing since before covid and I loved it. I hadn’t heard of the allegations against Ansel at that point, and with the viewing being a pretty last minute, spur of the moment decision I really hadn’t looked into the cast or really anything about the movie at all, outside of the few ads I’d seen. But I went to see it with my mother, who was born in the 60s and knew the old movie from then, and both of us really enjoyed it. There was very, very little that we thought could be improved, and it’s had a lasting impact on both of us for its commentary on race, culture, etc., and it’s interpretation of a story that goes back so many years, even before the 1961 movie or the musical before it.

The real tragedy was Hanson winning score over The Great Comet....

The direction they went for Emma on the prom made no sense. They had her smiling during breakups and all the time. I get she tried to stay positive but when she is always smiling it makes her one dimensional. Also i read the novelization and it focuses so much more on Emma and Alyssa. They should have being the leads not the broadway actors. So many of their songs felt incessant to the story.

Great tier list vid! Here are two more movie musical tier list ideas: 1. Movies that musicals are based on. *cough* Heathers *cough* 2. More movie musicals that aren’t based on stage shows (I.e Encanto).

I've always felt like in DEH, the reason why it worked was because you can always see why characters are doing what they're doing, even if you don't want them to do it (ie: Evan lying, Jared helping him, Connor pushing everyone away). I think putting that into movie form just didn't work at all.

My take is that Evan is an anti-hero, but written without the redeeming features that should make us like him. (And yet there is a section of the audience that love him anyway, so I guess it worked for some people.)

I could have sworn the average person used to be able to view shows one time only or a select number of shows only, but their site now says researchers only, so maybe I misheard or received bad information? It's at least good to know that important shows will not be lost to history, even if we can't partake of the collection ourselves at this point.

I literally just can't get over how adoringly Ryan looks at Sam. It's my favorite part of these vids. It is so precious. They are so cute!

This is a REALLY long one, so strap in. If you don't want to read, you don't have to, but this is a rant I've been holding on to for a minute and I gotta let it go. What makes me upset about people criticizing Evan as a character and calling him a sociopath is how some of us (yes, I do it, too) disregard or blatantly ignore some of the events that lead up to Evan starting and following through with the lie. 1. Evan DID try to tell Cynthia and Larry that he wasn't friends with Connor, but as we know, our boy doesn't do well with confrontation and especially not in this situation, so to tell 2 grieving parents that are trying to hold on to the last little thing they can of their son that they in fact don't have anything to hold on to would be hard to do in the moment, especially if you're Evan Hansen. Also, the parents were being pretty stubborn about it and kept ignoring him each time he denied being friends with him, so there's that, as well. 2. After that scene, we get the scene with Jared and, well, lemme just quote the scene: Jared: What are you going to do? Evan: I mean, the truth. (Initially, he was going to tell the truth. Wanna know what Jared's response was?) J: The truth. Really? You're going to go to the Murphy's house and explain that the only thing left they have of their son is some weird sex letter that you wrote to yourself? (Pushing Evan toward the dark side just a little bit, but let's skip ahead about 3 or 4 lines.) E: What do you expect me to do? Just keep lying? J: I didn't say, "lie." All you have to do is just nod and confirm. Whatever they say about Connor, you just nod your head and you say, yeah, that's true. Don't contradict and don't make shit up. It's foolproof. (See? Jared is the one who initially pushes Evan to lie in the first place. But wait, there's more! Skip ahead 1 more line and...) E: They were so sad. His parents? His mom was just... I've never seen anyone so sad before. (Here's the most manipulative ass line Jared says probably throughout this entire script.) J: Well, then, good thing you're about to tell her the truth about your sex letter. I'm sure that will cheer her right up. (Literally the last thing Evan probably needed to hear, all things considered, Jare Bear, especially since you are his only "friend" and he gives into peer pressure REEEEAAAALLLL easily.) 3. Of course, a lot of the stuff that happens is Evan's fault, no doubt, but in the For Forever scene, Cynthia was the only one who was really trying to remember Connor as a good person. Hell, she was the only one really trying to remember Connor at all. Zoe and Larry started the argument, Zoe continued on, and Evan not only didn't like that they were fighting, he didn't like that they were saying that there were no good memories of Connor, so he stands up and tries to defuse the situation any way he can and that was For Forever. Not the best way to defuse the situation, but I can see why he did it. He wanted to give them some little nugget of hope that Connor wasn't as bad as they thought. Am I defending Evan? No, but I am explaining how not everything that happens is necessarily his fault. Also, I feel like the fact that he created something as beautiful as The Connor Project out of this is quite fantastic. He took a bad situation and flipped it into something positive (for a while, anyway). Now, again, not defending him. He should've defied what Jared said and, though it would break the hearts of Connor's parents, told them the truth, but I hope this puts into perspective a couple of the reasons he did what he did. Also, I don't personally think anyone is rooting for him except for at the beginning. I mean, really, he was written to be morally grey.

I love that u guys defended Ben a bit and the ranked the DEH movie on the bottom

12:10 Fun fact: I live in Latin América and when I went to watch West Side Story it was replaced for an extra screen for Spiderman No Way Home 3d

Go on Amazon Prime and watch Everybody's Talking about Jamie. It's a movie musical from a show that is still currently playing on the West End in London. I loved it and I'm waiting for the stage show to come to broadway.

WEST SIDE STORY WAS SO GOOD OMG

I feel like it's such a LMM thing tho Hmmm out of all the founding fathers I could write about, Imma do ✨Alexander Hamilton✨ yknow the guy who no one knows about except Ron Chernow Hmmm out of all the amazing musicals I could direct, Imma do ✨Tick, Tick...BOOM✨ yknow the one you vaguely remember but no one else would choose

now can we get a tier list for movie musical directors?

7:34 same ryan! andrew rannells does not get talked about enough for how universal an actor he is! i’d love to see your opinion on falsettos (the original or 2016 revival!)

I REALLY enjoyed The Greatest Showman but this critique is spot-on. I think 90% of my love for it is that I somehow missed EVERY advertisement for it beforehand and didn't know it would be a musical until it started playing.

I saw this channel last month and subscribed But I just realized that that's Sam!?! Sam from Hi5. How did I not notice that!?!

Sam! Ryan! This was great. You gotta go check out our guy Bradley Whitford's work! He was Sondheim in TTB. Go watch "The West Wing"!! I feel like maybe y'all would be into it.

Bradley Whitford (the man who played Sondheim) will forever be Carmen Lowell’s dad (from The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants) to me 😅 that’s the only thing I’ve seen him in, other than a few episodes of different shows as a guest. Hopefully I can start seeing him as Sondheim now, since he’s a much nicer guy ❤️

I love your shirt Sam! ❤

Okay but the best musical to come out within the last decade is Barb and Star go to Vista Del Mar

Even though it will end up likely about where Prom is for you def need to check out Everybody's Talking About Jamie on Prime. Speaking of Prom I feel like my biggest issue is the trimmed down songs which made those scenes fall flat. Also Corden but the rest of the cast was so solid I'll kinda forgive it. Dear Evan Hansen I may have put in the soundtack spot because it still has some bops even if problematic af.

not sure if you’ve already done this, but you should make a tier list of all of the disney channel shows and/or original movies!

Before watching this video I want to say that Cats musical is still the worst. I'm just going end it there who would paid for that. Can we have another tier that said dumpster fire or Why I'm here.

My issue with the DEH movie is they took out anything that held Evan Hansen responsible so he’s just an unchecked sociopath

does the disney+ hamilton count?? it’s definitely top tier

Can you make a sequel (or prequel?) of this but with older movies? Like Chicago, Moulin Rogue, Romeo and Juliet, etc.

I just need to know one thing- where did you get ur shirt?!?! Is that Adam driver?

Bradley Whitford, a fantastic character actor probably most know for playing Rose’s dad in Get Out and The West Wing, played Steven Sondheim. He’s a terrific actor. :)

I feel like I’m the only one who genuinely enjoyed the dear Evan hansen movie, and I honestly can’t pinpoint why it resonated with me.

I think my favorite song from TTB is therapy😂I have like memorized the Andrew/Jonathan part but I need someone for the duet

in dear evan hansen the book and musical they vilanise evan they tell him he is shitty when in the movie that is never adressed.... we sympathise with him because he admits his wrongs and we adress him and hes a teenager we can accept it but we cannot accept thses actions from an adult

West Side Story and Tick Tick Boom are probably the most amazing films I’ve ever watched.

I honestly don't think that the DEH movie is that bad, but there are obviously a few things I would change, like casting a younger actor as Evan (Love Ben Platt but the whole nepotism of the situation is 😬) and keep the wholesome persona for Zoe; there was no reason to make her so edgy. I genuinely think it is well written and I like that Evan actually experiences some form of consequences for what he did as opposed to ending the whole show after exposing all of the lies.

Lin-Manuel Miranda was the lead in a Lincoln Center Encores! production of Tick, Tick...Boom! in 2014 with Karen Olivo and Leslie Odom Jr.. IIRC, it was where he really got to know Leslie and lead to his being cast in Hamilton. It was that experience that more than likely led to him deciding to shepherd it to film, as it's a rather auto biographical re-telling of Jonathan Larsen's life, the man whose Rent is what made LMM feel like he could not just love the theater but be a part of it himself, thus changing the course of his life entirely.

i just can’t wait for wicked to come out, i’ve seen the cast and i’m just hoping it’s really good.

wait im never this early also tier lists are my favorite videos

I was sure you will discuss the voice of Andrew Garfield in the movie. What do you think of people non singers (as he was) before the movie step into this big movies

Into the woods is my worst because it took a story I loved and ruined it. Sideways has a great video on that

Can you guys do a dream cast for a movie musical adaptation of Heathers (if it were ever to happened)

I've really only seen good to great movie musicals from this past decade. I loved Dear Evan Hansen despite its flaws. Les Mis had plenty of great moments, with some slipups named Russell Crowe. In the Heights, Tick Tick Boom, and West Side Story were all awesome. I really enjoy Greatest Showman. I don't like Into the Woods, because it feels lacking in fun. My least favorite musical movie(I haven't seen Cats and I don't intend to) is Phantom of the Opera, which I know didn't come out in the past decade. I can't fathom the decisions that were made. Also, that was a scary good Jerry Seinfeld impression.

See, I think The Prom was amazing. I hadnt seen the stage show or heard the soundtrack before. Huge watcher and devourer of stage and film musicals. It was better than In The Heights 🤷‍♂️

Maybe make a Tier list ranking the things our king LMM has made?

"Whoever played Stephen Sondheim" 😆 How can someone not know the great Bradley Whitford?! 😆

Dude my Dad and I went to see DEH in theaters and I was the only one familiar with the musical so he went in blind and within fifteen minutes all hope had left his eyes Like he leaned over after a bit and asked if the movie ended happy and I guess my face was answer enough

I haven't really found anyone really be able to explain why the DEH movie is bad because I think it fixes some things from the show, but also does some things worse than the show. Everyone talks about this and that but I agree it's not good but I can't really explain "why" outside of contrivance and some bad camera work

Dude Ryan was amazing as Tony in west side story. I got to see min at the lyric opera house in Chicago. CHILLS.

The Prom may not be good, and the James Corden of it all doesn't help, but it's still a massively comforting movie for me. The music is really good all the way through, and Meryl Streep and Ariana DeBose especially really put their all into it.

west side story is kinda connected to LMM in a way... WSS is a Sondheim musical Sondheim was Jonathan Larson's mentor Jonathan Larson made tick tick boom Lin-Manuel Maranda directed TTB...

My issue with the Dear Evan Hansen movie was that they removed any song that might've implied what Evan was doing was messed up. I get removing the Connor ghost cause they wanted to ground it in reality (Why? It just makes it more uncomfortable) but then they also remove good for you, the only moment where he gets confronted... why?

Here's my hot take: I feel like people who say Cats the movie is weird and uncomfortable and creepy need to revisit the original musical and realise that it was *always* weird and uncomfortable and creepy. That's what makes it great and what makes ALW such a genius.
