As much as I still loathe Andrew Lloyd Webber, I think I can renew my love for Phantom of the Opera after watching the movie version (finally).
While Gerard Butler's singing is not 100% amazing, there are many qualities of his voice that I prefer over Michael Crawford's. Mainly: his gravelly growl. A couple times, I was hoping he'd scream, "THIS IS OPERAAA!" and kick Raoul or Carlotta in a Massive Hole to Nowhere. (300 has ruined Gerard Butler for me)
Also, Gerard Butler is hottycakes as the Phantom. He can be the menacing, brooding, Byronic, slightly - or maybe entirely - insane and bitter musical genius under my opera house anytime XD
Disfigured or not, I'd tap that.
