Comments: First of all I would just like to give my deepest and purest thanks to the creators of this website.
I have always loved musicals, I was brought up to love them by my Grandfather, but no other speaks to me with every note and lyric as does The Phantom of the Opera. So, you can imagine my complete joy and (perhaps) insane frame of mind when I found out there was a movie years ago. Then...WE ALL FOUND OUT...Micheal Crawford may not get the role! I'm sure many people have said this before, but what comes to my mind is, "I gave you my music...made your song take wing! And now how you've repayed me denyed me and betrayed me." If he doesn't get the movie role. I'll jump of a cliff...but first...write a strongly worded letter to Lord Webber....toad that he is.

Comments: Well, Lloyd Webber and Co.
It looks to me like striving for a Video of "The Phantom Of The Opera" WITH MICHAEL CRAWFORD as Erik is a hopeless case :'{
I for one, like so many others I'm sure, am sooooo sick and tired of fighting for the Video to be made, and sooooo sick and tired of waiting for it to come out.
Time and time again, we the public have made it absolutely crystal clear to you all who we want as Erik The Phantom Of The Opera in the STILL yet to be made and released Video.
We want MICHAEL CRAWFORD, MICHAEL CRAWFORD, MICHAEL CRAWFORD, MICHAEL CRAWFORD; yet you STILL persistently insist on going against us :'{ WHY?
Do you think that, after sooooo many looooong years fighting for a Phantom Video WITH MICHAEL CRAWFORD, that we are now all just going to give up and go away?
Think again. No way. NOT without our Video WITH MICHAEL CRAWFORD in the lead role as "The Phantom Of The Opera".
Come on. Don't make us wait yet another moment longer. It looks to me like that's just about what it's going to have to take to make you all perhaps FINALLY sit up and FINALLY take notice of us. We want MICHAEL CRAWFORD as "Erik, OUR Phantom" in "The Phantom Of The Opera" Video production; and we want him NOW; not yesterday, not tomorrow; NOW.
Come on; I KNOW that this is NOT asking too much. Please bring out THE Video WITH "THE Phantom" himself, MICHAEL CRAWFORD. Pleeeeease.
WHY do you persist in wanting somebody else to play the lead role???? WHY?
Don't you realize that having MICHAEL CRAWFORD in your beautiful production of such a beautiful, tragic story is what has made it the sensational success that it is today :D
At every theatre where "Phantom" is playing, every seat is filled at every performance; now, that should tell you all something.
Sure, there are other "Phantoms";
after all, MICHAEL CRAWFORD can't be everywhere at once, but he DID make Erik his own; nobody else can hold a candle to MICHAEL CRAWFORD. NOBODY.
With what I have seen and heard of MICHAEL CRAWFORD as Erik, he doesn't play Erik; he IS Erik.
You should all get down on your hands and knees and kiss MICHAEL CRAWFORD's feet; you should all thank him for all eternity :D
Because of MICHAEL CRAWFORD, your Phantom production is adored by thousands, no, millions :D
And now, you want to give Erik's/MICHAEL's mask to an impostor!!!! WHY?
This is "how you repay me, deny me and betray me".
Keep your hands at the level of your eyes.
Your "Phantom" production would not have been such a goldmine for you if not for MICHAEL CRAWFORD.
Are you all on your hands and knees yet?
MICHAEL CRAWFORD AS ERIK THE PHANTOM OF THE OPERA, NOW, IN THE ANDREW LLOYD WEBBER PRODUCTION OF THE PHANTOM OF THE OPERA. All we ask is for a Video to be made of "The Phantom Of The Opera", WITH MICHAEL CRAWFORD. Now surely that is not unreasonable. Personally though, I seriously do doubt that the Video will ever be made; let alone WITH MICHAEL CRAWFORD; after all, we have been waiting for yonkers; one and a half centuries to be exact, oh, sorry, one and a half decades; but it sure does feel like one and a half centuries to me :'{
I am very disappointed in all of you :'{
Thank you for taking the time to read my letter.
Jaime Dawn Crawford.
MICHAEL CRAWFORD AS ERIK {IN} THE PHANTOM OF THE OPERA.

Comments: I have traveled to three states to see Michael Crawford in his last concert tour, many times to Las Vegas for EFX and I'm now planning my first trip to New York to see him in Dance of the Vampires. I bought the concert video but have to rely on my memories of the EFX spectacular show. I've seen the Phantom many times over the years including London and Toronto but none of the phantoms come close to the performance of Michael Crawford. He can bring you to tears at the end of the performance wearing makeup so heavy he cannot use his facial expressions to show his mood but still uses every part of his body to make you want him, a hideous creature to get the beautiful young girl. I haven't written here for quite awhile and back then I did say to use the roles of Christine and Raoul for your big name stars but now I don't even want you to do that. Phantom of the Opera is a great story if presented exactly as Anrew Lloyd Webber and Tim Rice have on stage. Just get Michael Crawford as the ultimate phantom and very talented singers/actors to play the other key roles. Please make this movie with Michael Crawford, follow the original stage production and you will have success at the box office. You also have the added bonus of Michael Crawford starring on Broadway in Dance of the Vampires which will surely win him a Tony award in 2003.

Comments: To The Really Useful Group and Warner Bros.: I am 13 years old and an obsessive Phantom Phan. I have listened to the original cast recording of The Phantom of the Opera virtually every day since I was eight years old and simply cannot picture it without Michael Crawford in the lead! If you must make a Phantom movie with some Hollywood bigshot in the title role, you'd better be remaking the silent film with Lon Chaney. Otherwise, you've incurred the wrath of a powerful society of Phans- and ruined the greatest theatrical experience to ever cross the stage.

YOU MIGHT AS WELL JUST COUNT THIS ONE OUT ALREADY...
there's no way that he could even dream of comparing himself to Michael Crawford...

Comments: I've been waiting for what seems like an eternity for the Phantom of the opera to be released on the big screen much like I did for Evita. I have also waited to see Michael Crawford play that part. And now to hear that he will be stepped over for Antonio Banderas is a disgrace. Antonio is not the actor for the part of the Phantom. If Michael Crawford does not play the Phantom, this is one patron that will not be going to see this movie. As disappointed that I am to miss it, I am more disappointed that Michael Crawford will not be playing the Phantom. I am sure WB doesn't care in my one little movie ticket, but there are others out there too, and *we* do matter. The true Phantom of the Opera fans DO NOT WANT ANTONIO BANDERAS to play the Phantom. Period.

Comments: Michael Crawford is the Phantom! Please do not make the mistake of picking a Hollywood "star" to play the part and make us suffer through an electroically trumped up soundtrack hoping to cover up the lack of a singing voice by the "star." I listen to the soundtrack of The Phantom of the Opera on every long drive I take. It never grows old. I can't wait to attend my 4th showing of The Phantom when it's within a 6 hour drive again. Tom

But disappointing without Michael's voice, his passion, his command of the man, Erik. Michael makes Erik live, breathe, and we all end up caring for him. I can't imagine that the powers that be would even consider another person in the role or that anyone else would be accepted. Make the movie, and sell it, use Michael Crawford. There is no other.

With out him the Phantom would cease to exist. The Role is the Man. The Man is indeed Michael Crawford. If by chance the Phantom does cease to exist, Me and many other Phantom fans will be very unhappy. Just as Poor Unhappy Erik was. So please, make Michael Crawford the Role. The Phantom.

Comments: How in the hell can anyone ever think of casting someone other than Michael Crawford as the Phantom? Are you not thinking clearly? Are you not listening clearly?

I was not privileged to see him on Broadway (because I came too late), but I have always kept his sound in my head. I have listened to his c.d. and watched his vhs tape so many times.

How could anyone ever possibly conceive of a Phantom other than Michael Crawford?

I really don't like Sarah Brightman's voice in that role. If you would, please consider Dale Christian (or however her name is spelled). Her voice is ever so much better!!!!!!! She appeared with Michael in San Francisco.

There is only one Phantom.....you have to know who that is.....MICHAEL CRAWFORD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Comments: Was listening to my cd of "Michael Crawford in Concert" when I was trying to find something else that Dale Christian (or however her last name is spelled) has done that I could find and buy, because her voice is better than Sarah Brightman's was in the original Phantom.............go figure!

I have ALWAWAYS thought that Michael should do the film version. How can anyone doubt that????? What is the problem? Why is there a campaign for him to do it? There is no one else who could ever do it to perfection, the way that Michael will do it.....so what is the problem?

I am a total fan of Michael Crawford. I love everything that he has done. So, how can I help in what you evidently are trying to accomplish?

Comments: The thought of anyone but Michael playing the Phantom is a bit scary. I won't go see the movie if he's not playing the lead. He's the most wonderful Phantom ever!

Comments: I was really amazed when first heard Phantom of the Opera. And this was mainly because of the excellent and special voices of the cast and especially Michael Crawford's! I hope to see him on the screen performing the role written for him! His is the one and only Phantom!

Comments: It beggars belief, in my opinion that Lord Webber would want anyone else for the role of the Phantom when he can have Michael Crawford! Casting someone like Antonio Banderas instead, is like someone choosing to eat a hamburger when they could have caviar! Lord Webber must surely have lost his mind.

Comments: I have to admit that I haven't seen the film version with Michael Crawford starring as the role of the Phantom, but with his fantastic voice, he would... Correction he is the best Phantom.

I have seen other films of the Phantom of the Opera with Robert Englund (Sorry about the spelling if it's incorrect) in the role, but he just seems to be the serial killer. Michael Crawford would bring out the heart and soul of this distorted character. Plus Michael Crawford sings in the film, whereas Robert Englund didn't.

I do have a CD of 'The Phantom of the Opera' which has Michael Crawford's and Sarah Brightman's voice on it. It sounds fantastic and I find it rather difficult to avoid listening to it. However I am disappointed that I have yet to see the film.

I know I will see it one day, but I know already Michael will play an excellent role. Congratulations Michael.

Comments: For all those who wonder whether Michael Crawford can still handle the POTO music, here is an interesting item I read in the Personality Parade section of the August 11th PARADE magazine. It was in response to a question about Luciano Pavarotti and Placido Domingo retiring. I call this a Tale of Three Tenors.

Tenors 1 and 2: "Unlike Pavarotti, 66--whose weight and health have taken their toll and whose voice is clearly strained--Domingo, 61, continues to train like an athlete. He vocalizes daily and is careful about his diet. The Spanish tenor's top register not only retains its lyrical beauty, but his sound actually has grown richer with age."

As for that third tenor...well, substitute Crawford, 60, for Domingo, and English for Spanish, and you have a perfect description of Michael's status. He is religious about his vocalizing, training, and dieting, and his voice is richer than ever. Can he still hack it? You bet he can!

Listen up, Andrew Lloyd Webber and Warner Bros., Michael Crawford is the one and only box office name for The Phantom of the Opera and his voice is more glorious than it ever was. Stop the procrastinating and get this movie made!!

A.L.W's version of Phantom is excellent with the most beautiful music you'll ever hear.Michael crawford and Sarah Brightman are the best.If it is made into a movie, they both should star in it.But a good director should direct it. It would be a movie if you hire a good director.It would ruin it if the movie is dissapointment and flop.that would make me so upset.

Comments: Dear Warner Brothers Inc,
You have to cast the leading role of the phantom to Michael. He deserves it. All other actors who played the phantom after Crawford all try to portray him. His voice is so wonderful and for all those who never got to see him on Broadway, I think that this is their chance. It would mean a great deal to me as well as others who really love the arts. Thank you.

Comments: To have The Phantom as a movie would be great, to have Michael Crawford star would be fantastic. The chorus needs to be the chorus that was here in Houston for the final appearance, they are by far better than the chorus on the tapes or the other chorus I saw in San Antonio last year. The chorus from the Houston show and Michael Crawford equals perfection.

Comments: Well, let's see...there are two options. Be original, or be unoriginal. Since I'm *sure* there are thousands upon thousands of posts going on about how MC is the only Phantom, la de da de da...(even tho it's true), let's go for something semi-original. Hmm...now comes the hard part: thinking. Well, maybe when WB and ALW get their heads out of their...uh...cuckoo clocks, they'll get some brains. Maybe that little bird inside the door that comes out on the hour can help 'em along. But maybe if they work real hard at it, some sort of brain will appear. That's only a maybe now. Assuming it does, they'll do the right thing and cast Michael. But, if they're stupid as usual, and cast *shudder* *gag* *croak* Anto...yeah, him...(that name just leaves a bad taste in my mouth...), then there's always boycotting, pickets, defacing property, attacking ppl that go see the movie, randomly screaming at people...yeah...Ok, I've lost the entire purpose for this post...nothing unusual. But let it be known to the world that the role IS the man and we will not sleep, we will not eat, and we will not go to school(hardship, that one is!), until that role is taken by the one and only Michael Crawford! MWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA*cough*HAHAHAHAHA!!! Ok, the end. *steps off soapbox*

Comments: Most directors have to guess for their audience, who to cast and how to direct the production to make it a successful piece of work which will be appreciated by everyone. ALW and WB shouldn't be complaining at all, not only do they have people telling them what they want, but they have people begging, crying and becoming emotional all over a casting decision. The answer is quite simple, impress the phans or prepare to see your movie topple.

We are trying very hard not to dislike you ALW, you are part of the reason of the enormous following behind this tragic story. We all accept and respect your genuis, so don't insult your greatest work as you so often do, you'll find you are making much more of your profit from POTO than Cats, (it's not nearly as popular as poto, incase you hadn't noticed) Don't do this to us ALW, we are begging you...we had the power to put you where you are, so we also have the power to take all that away.
