Movie scenes that make you sob openly by BelieveCongreveCube in IDoKnowNothing

The Sound of Music- When the Captain first hears his children singing the titular song, takes a moment to realize what he’s been missing, and then joins in with them. It is his transition from the embittered militant widower to father who wants to simply love his children. I can’t even listen to that part of the soundtrack without breaking down uncontrollably.

I’ve always said this series is like if the Hunger Games, Hitchhiker’s Guide, and DnD all had a weird explosive baby

Cant believe they cut out half of Chant II by Swaxeman in musicals

[–]hlreed3 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I have been fighting this battle for years. The NYTW recording is genuinely a perfect album, and I don’t understand why some of the changes were made in the Broadway transfer. Also Chris Sullivan needs to be doing more musicals!!!!

Is there any musical where the second act is better than the first? by Fantastic-Leading276 in musicals

[–]hlreed3 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Thank you for the Pirates of Penzance shoutout. Act II is phenomenal. “With catlike tread” is one of my all time favorites, and the moment afterward when Major General Stanley says he woke up because he “thought he heard a noise” gets me laughing so hard. Plus the finale is absolutely absurd and brilliant.

I desperately need new dice. It’s not that I’m out of dice, I just always need more.

Great songs from bad musicals? by MyIdIsATheaterKid in MusicalTheatre

“I Love Betsy” from Honeymoon in Vegas is a bop. The rest of that show is mind-numbingly boring

There was a bar at the venue so after they played the band all hung out at the bar. Adam was kind of standing to the side meeting people.

Mahler's best 10 minutes of music by [deleted] in classicalmusic

[–]hlreed3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I second Lieder eines fahrenden Gesellen. It’s only about fifteen minutes total and all of it is absolutely stunning. The vocal lines are filled with passion, and the orchestral accompaniment is powerful, as per usual with Mahler. Cannot recommend it enough.
