Yessss. For all the other characters' big solos, I thought having their name on the screen was a bit cheesy, but then it got to Empty Chairs and I was like "....OH. Oh. Well that makes the whole concept worth it. oh my heart."

The costuuuuumes and the location filming and the perfect gorgeousness of everything and the book shoutouts (Fantine's teeth, jesus). And yeah, most of the cuts didn't bother me but I was super bummed that they didn't manage to include the end of the Confrontation or the beginning of On My Own. Both were in the shooting script, so I think they wanted to include them but ran out of running time. :(

Ha, well, the screen actually helped me figure out the names of the characters at first. But I agree the best part was Empty Chairs. Including the very last bit, where all the Amis were lit up from behind it, with Enjolras holding the flag...One of the more vivid memories I have.

The scene with Fantine's teeth was really good; tons of people actually flinched watching it. And yeah, the running time was an issue. Already a lot of people are saying it's too long. D: Personally, I would've been very happy with a longer version :) My least favourite cut is probably "Little People"; Gavroche is flawless and deserves as much screen time as possible, and it would have also made his death scene more poignant, as he sung an excerpt from the same song.

Speaking of death scenes, I like how they did Enjolras' death scene - it was close to the book version, but still had the drama of the stage version. Oh, and the Bishop at the end, with Jean Valjean...That was amazing, too.

Well, maybe once they release the DVD there might be an extended edition of the movie...I heard they cut out at least fifteen minutes that they were definitely planning to include. A DVD seems an apt place to show more footage.
