I'm taking my soon to be nonagenarian mother to a last visit to Company on the final day. She would normally prefer an afternoon show but

Muck About Matinee's (or what ever they are called) need to be cried down ASAP. Giving less than 100% to a performance in any other context is decried on here, yet this self indulgent, nay selfish, act is somehow given a pass when it delivers a sub standard experience for the vast majority, who are not 'in the know'. Getting a musical cast to gell and create something special is hard enough without all the actors waiting to see what happens next. All so that a very few addicts can say how hilarious it was for years and years afterwards. HMMMMM.

This Forum should campaign to expose it for what it is. Unacceptable.

I always think muck-ups should be confined to high school productions!!

Some more unpopular opinions:

Company was good but not see-it-five-times good (I was kind of bored by the end of it, to tell the truth...)

CHF sounds SO bad on the Heathers cast album, particularly at the end of Dead Girl Walking

I think Tom Hiddleston has a limited range and I don't think he's particularly great at anything that's not brooding in a corner. He's not a bad actor by any means - but Coriolanus showed up his limitations big time. 

Let’s face it, Kate could have broken wind in Before The Dawn and the crowd would have lapped it up. It was fabulous to see it, especially as I’m one of the few to have seen her first tour, but let’s face it, we really wanted her to do her greatest hits didn’t we. I did anyway.

She has always be in thrall of that 80s alt-comedy crowd like Lenny Henry, Rowan Atkinson and the Ken crowd.

I have to admit I was just glad to see her onstage- and seriously impressed at the strength of her voice.

But the "mystery" is beginning to feel a bit like posturing that helps shift the re-issues with minimum effort.

Yes apart from a couple of songs I've never liked them. It's all so shiny and trebly, it's like icing sugar being rubbed into my eardrums.

Well if we're starting a bandwagon...GOT isn't all that 'groundbreaking' and is frankly not that interesting*



*granted I gave up midway through season 2.

I got through about that much of the book...I didn't HATE series one, but midway through series 2 I realised I didn't know who anyone was and had zero investment in anything happening and frankly life's too short etc 

(It's a shame because SciFi/Fantasy is my bag, and it SHOULD have been a thing I loved, anyway dragons, tits etc I'm sure it's fun if you're still into it) 

I do enjoy the show (a reasonable amount) but I don't think not being into it counts as an unpopular opinion. I guess, in the same way that men just don't experience sexism-against-women in a way that means anything to them, non-fans just don't experience that certain type of non-fan who seems almost to seek out conversations about the show JUST so they can tell the fans how little they care. I don't think there's anyone in this thread who fits that description, but if anyone turns up in the Game Of Thrones-specific thread to post about how much they don't watch the show, then we'll have a winner.

GOT is the sort of thing that I thought would appeal to me, but somehow I never got around to watching it at all and next thing I knew it was umpteen seasons in and it seemed a bit futile to try to get into it.

Not really a non-fan thing, but elsewhere I've experienced that sort of fan who feels the need to turn up in every discussion about a character others like to say how much they hate the character and want them written out. Over and over and over again. "Whoa! My people-are-saying-nice-things-about-that-character alarm is sounding. Time to rain on their parade."

Me Neither.

Nor me. And same applies to The Simpsons.
