Stuff Les Mis Fans (Almost) Never Say

This is a satirical blog full of things that Les Mis fans will never (or at least almost never) say. Nothing here should be taken seriously. Absolutely nothing. If you do take it seriously and put a long message in my ask, or reblog something on here and rant about it, that's your choice but you will look silly. And you can't say you weren't warned. Submissions are gratefully accepted (I'm not that imaginative).

"Best part of the movie? Russell Crowe's singing!"

"I’m so happy they cut Grantaire’s verse in ‘Drink With Me’ from the movie. It’s a completely pointless moment anyway."

I what no. That is my favorite part of the musical. I understand that everyone has their own opinions but his part isn’t pointless.

"One Day More is the worst part of the musical, it’s so ugly and loud, I can’t hear a single person’s lines"

"When people tell me Les Mis is depressing or full of relatively uninspired music, I accept it without comment, argument or aghast staring."

Do you know if any of the stage productions were filmed and released on DVD?

(I'm hoping this is a question rather than a submission...)

Sadly no. There are various recorded videos of stage productions and clips from productions on Youtube and other sites (the full UK 25th Anniversary tour production is on Youtube), but there aren't any official recordings of the stage productions.

The closest thing there is are the 10th and 25th anniversary concerts.

"The pronunciation of 'Enjolras' is definitely the easiest of all the characters."

[thingslesmisfansneversay]

"David Thaxton was a terrible Enjolras."

[thingslesmisfansneversay]

"I can honestly say that I have never once wished that Eponine and Marius could be together."

[thingslesmisfansneversay]

"There is absolutely no excuse for anyone ever shipping Enjolras/Grantaire. It's a completely ridiculous and unfounded ship."

"Anne Hathaway’s voice is so powerful and well-trained, she should have played Fantine on Broadway."
