This is where we analyze the character of the Phantom.


message 2: by [deleted user] (new)

homocidal maniac, cool, awesome, smart, cool, evil, A VERY GOOD ROLE MODEL!!!!!!


message 3: by Hope (new)

 Hope Only the most AMAZING person to ever have been... something but definitely the coolest in the whole movie! NO one can even compare to him!


message 4: by [deleted user] (new)

well, my friends would dissagree w/ that... BUT I DONT!


message 5: by Hope (new)

 Hope are you kidding me! How could they dissagree! my friends haven't seen it so I am making them come over this weekend so we can all watch it


message 6: by [deleted user] (new)

message 7: by Hope (new)

message 8: by [deleted user] (new)

yeah, i came close fri night, (friend was sleeping over) we went on utube and looked it up. didnt get past the rating and turned off the PC. after that we thought he was under the bed...


message 9: by [deleted user] (new)

O my gosh, I've wanted to see Sweeney Todd for so long but my brother can't watch it so I can't either.
Anyways, despite his amazing awesomeness - Erik, psychology of.


message 10: by Autumn (new)

Autumn (abmort93) I can't watch it. Mom saw it and my parents said it was too gory...Hmm...I saw Underworld I and II, and one is sort of gory. Although, canabelism freaks me out, so...probably a good idea I haven't seen it.

The Phantom is the best and I pity him. Poor Erik!


message 11: by [deleted user] (new)

teehee! if MY parents think its to gory... wow, they r SO wrong... u dont know what goes on in my mind... fortunately...


message 12: by Autumn (new)

Autumn (abmort93) My parents should be glad they don't know what goes on in my head.


message 13: by [deleted user] (new)

ya... i daydream about werewolves and draw ppl wearing punk/goth clothes in science...


message 14: by [deleted user] (new)

This isn't going to turn into a discussion of our many creepy daydreams, is it? Although it's very Erik. Although compared to his, your daydreams would probably very gentle lovely and G-rated.


message 15: by Autumn (new)

Autumn (abmort93) I don't know. I have had very secretly pleasing daydreams. :D


message 16: by [deleted user] (new)

lol, like i said, hes my role model! ^^ y do u think im so corrupt, lol XD


message 17: by Hope (new)

 Hope OK... back to the Phantom... again the most amazing person I have ever laid eyes on! If not for the Phantom, though, Raoul wouldn't have wanted Christine. There is the downside.


message 18: by Lara (new)

Lara (laraswimm) | 46 comments I disagree... Raoul wanted Christine from the beginning... Erik did nothing but obsess over Christine...


message 19: by [deleted user] (new)

Define obsess and explain how it differs from love.


message 20: by Hope (new)

 Hope Well you know that the Phantom has known nothing but a life of hatred. Everyone hated him... so what would you do. He isn't sure how to show his love because he's never been on a date before! So I don't think that he knows the difference between obsession and love.


message 21: by Autumn (new)

Autumn (abmort93) I agree.


message 22: by [deleted user] (new)

message 34: by [deleted user] (new)

lol... ill just delete post 25...


message 35: by Hope (new)

 Hope Well, he can be a good role model but he can also be a bad one, if you want to look at it realistically. I think that Raoul is a very bad role model though, so Erik really isn't that bad when you compare him to Raoul...

Allie (pearlrose95) | 40 comments Raoul is simply lame. Phantom is the most awesome and amazing person ever! He loved Christine with everything he had, which was like obsession, but like someone said, knowing hate he never truly understood love.


message 37: by Hope (new)

 Hope true


message 38: by Gemma (new)

Gemma | 48 comments I disagree that Erik never understood love; he let Christine go, didn't he? I know Erik is one very messed up individual, but you can't help but love him and want to knock some sense into Christine for not loving him. He's no choir boy, but is he really all that terrible? Aside from the homicidal tendencies, that is? I think most of what we feel about Erik is a combination of pity, respect, awe, a little bit of fear, and love. Good Lord, when you get down to it, he's got us bewitched.
