a lot of lefty folks dislike Hamilton because the people that won't shut up about how wonderful it is tend to be "moderate" liberals that use the show as a status signifier.

bongwizzard posted:These and Into the Woods are like the only tolerable musicals. Assassins is the best musical ever, Chicago, and Cabaret are also pretty good. The movie version of Cabaret is a bit 'meh' compared to post revival versions, since the movie dumps a lot of stuff to make room for Liza and post revival brings back aspects like Sally just being a pretty girl and a so-so singer. Figured I'd throw that out there since you're only talking about musicals that get movies.

Defiance Industries posted:Alexander Hamilton hated democracy and was one of the main drivers behind the Electoral College because of it. So, if you think about it, Donald Trump being president is his fault. Hamilton was also the OG mold of the hard charger big swingin dick wall street guy NYer stereotype so if not for hamilton Trump may not have even existed in his present form

And any case my expose the musical theater strictly comes from having been a stagehand for like 15 years. Do you think sitting through CATS! is bad? Try sitting through it 95 loving times.

Also the best thing about Hamilton is the fact that a bunch of stagehands are probably going to be able to milk that show for a very easy 10 year run.

There's a bunch of people who don't like Hamilton because they're racist and hate when black people talk about how they're racist or their own struggles. There's also people who just don't like it for normal reasons but the racists will pretend they don't like it for normal reasons also. I haven't seen it because I live in England and also nowhere near a big broadway scene. e: typo, I'm dyslexic curse of flubber fucked around with this message at 22:00 on Mar 25, 2017 |

Honestly Hamilton is going to be such an incredible thing for the stagehand industry I can't hate it completely. The Insane hype over this thing just ensures it's going to tour it till the end of days

Remember: you know better than another person whether that person is racist or not! "I am not racist" -racists "Why are you calling me racist for no reason?" -fragile white racists "I'm only telling you I have black friends specifically because you just called me a racist." -mega racist

I think Hamilton has a pretty good soundtrack and I listen to it sometimes and it sounds good. That's about it. Maybe I'd like to see it someday, maybe not. I don't feel any particular way beyond that. If you care enough to get mad about the show's existence, then you must lead a very boring life. That's literally how I feel about Hamilton.

And pretty much instantly was accused of "virulent anti-palestinian racism". Because... I honestly don't know. I can't parse how that is racist, I just can't.
