I'll accept five years :-)

And if someone sees the movie and through it discovers the wonder of the stage show? Is there something wrong with that?

OMG woman, take it back!

Nevah.

The movie to me is like the fucking cliffnotes of the musical.

It's actually not. You should give it a chance. There are only about...four major changes made, two are additions, one moves an event from one part to another, and only one is actually an omission, and only a partial one at that.

I mean, heavy cutting is, imo, the biggest fear when translating a stage show to film, but there really wasn't any heavy cutting for Phantom.

And it was filmed beautifully.
