Romantic!Phan here — though most emphatically not of the "she totally should have stayed with him at the end!" variety — and there is no sequel, no, stop talking nonsense! It's only romantic because it's a tragedy, because in the end he decided he loved her more than he lusted for her and let her go with the man she chose and who could actually make her happy. Giving it a "happy" ending ruins it.

I agree with you entirely! Do. Not. Want. Sequel. But ALW is making one anyway, and it's going to come to Broadway, and it's going to suck. ;___;

(Do note, my comment about romantic fans being less mature is aimed at those who want a happy ending, not those who acknowledge the creepy and tragic elements as a necessary part of the story. The comment of "the romantics will have their day" is aimed at that same sub-element in the fandom, the super-romantics who change the whole source material just to get the happy ending...which, as you said, misses the point.)

Ah. Yes. Them.

I... I don't understand how the creator can be one of them. How do you miss your own point?

Yeah. Them. Nothing else can really be said...

I know. >_< It's just...gah. No. It ends there, goddamnit, they don't come to New York and get together at the end, especially not at Coney Island, which is quite possibly the tackiest place possible. (My only question, as a history geek, is if they're going to include the part at the entrance of the park where you walk in and a vent is under your feet and it blew all the girls' skirts into the air. But probably not.)

My theory is that ALW went insane. Have you heard the song he wrote for Eurovision? "This is my time, my time, myyyyy tiiiiimmmmeee!" = entire song. It's horrible. Clearly the person who wrote Phantom was killed and a body-double replaced him.
