I hate to admit this

but I really hope Glee does POTO justice (hear me out)

because… the first time I was introduced to Phantom, was through the 2004 movie. 

I’ve looked back at it, and I now realize why some people HATE it. 

But I can’t help but remember, that it introduced me to this wonderful thing called theater… it’s the reason why I’m in this fandom, and I’m not gonna lie, Phantom has changed my life

Hopefully, others will watch Glee… get interested in Phantom just like I did, and later on truly appreciate it just as I am now. 

I never truly appreciated musical theater until Phantom, and unfortunately I had to watch the movie before the seeing it live (and not until 6 years later!) and now I am just learning to appreciate people like JOJ, Ramin, Earl Carpenter, Hugh, Gina Beck etc.!

It’s just… There are some people like me who don’t have the luxury of watching and enjoying theater. Does that mean we can’t truly appreciate it just because we didn’t watch it on the stage first? And is it such a crime that we read the book after we watched the movie? It can’t be helped!

I just wish this fandom was a little more accepting/forgiving.

Let Glee do their rendition, whether it be heavenly or morbid. If, because of the first, we get more fans, then let’s welcome them with open arms and show them what Phantom is like on theater, let’s open up their minds and show them the power of this beautiful story!! Don’t shun them away because they’re ignorant!

And if people are turned off because of Glee then it’s too bad for them, because they will truly be missing out. It’s not like there aren’t people who have seen Phantom on stage and not liked it! (Though I’ve never met anyone who hasn’t hehe)

Let’s get rid of the hate!

Let’s have respect for one another, our opinions, and our humble beginnings

Glee & Phantom DX

Okay… Here goes… If you’re reading this, please read UNTIL THE END.

To be honest with everyone, I love Glee. Period. And I really hate when people complain,

“Oh, I knew that song before it was on Glee!”

“It’s just like High School Musical” 

“Glee fucks up all the songs I like”

etc.

And although these things maybe true, it’s not like Glee clubs around the nation weren’t already doing these things! It’s just that, now it’s broadcasted on TV for everyone to see. 

What I love most about Glee is the story and the heart and spirit behind it.  I love that it broadcasts ideas about bullying, some real-life experiences, not just lovey dovey stuff. (And their trolling)

BUT I have to admit, when I heard the rumor of them doing a POTO song…

(I just so many emotions ok?)

I HAVE SO MANY MIXED EMOTIONS! I love Glee but YOU CAN’T HAVE PHANTOM YOU JUST CANT! 

I WON’T LET YOU! GOD DAMMIT! BUT I SECRETLY HOPE YOU DO IT WELL SO THAT I CAN STILL LOVE YOU! BUT IF YOU SCREW THIS UP I WILL SDKFBLASUDGFLIUASDLVBWPUGEFVASD!!!!!!!

They just. They can’t. I’m sorry but they can’t. They can’t have it. No. NO.

Take Wicked, take everything else! DON’T TOUCH PHANTOM!

…. The awkward moment when, six months after this actually happened, I realize that Blaine isn’t just messing with Kurt’s lapel, he’s pulling it out from under the strap of Kurt’s bag. Blaine is actually fixing it for him. 

^ omg i always thought he was just brushing it off or some shit

i officially feel like an idiot. how the fuck did i not notice this?

oh my god i didn’t notice that either ;_____;

Just when you thought this moment couldn’t get any cuter
IT DOES.
