    Who reads an 818 page biography of one of America's Founding Fathers and thinks "oh this would make a great hip-hop musical?" A genius named Lin-Manuel Miranda that's who. I personally would prefer the actual show over the animatics. But both would be great also. Great reaction. I can't wait to see more.

    I personally prefer to see the stage version even if the lyrics are on top. Even though the lyrics are dense and tell much of the story, the dancing and acting on the stage enhance the story. There are a lot of animatics for the Hamilton songs and they have their own value, but I believe going through it the first time, the stage production gives the best representation. I do appreciate the fact that you could possibly get blocked showing the stage production but using the videos with the lyrics covering the video may reduce that possibility. Also, I know the show well and think you should do all the songs and do them in order.

    Some of the lyrics are just mind blowing.
    “When are the colonies gonna rise up?”
    “Are we a nation of states? What’s the state of our nation.”
    Lin Manuel Miranda won a Pulitzer Prize for the lyrics on top of all the normal theatre awards. I’m not sure if you know the lead actor wrote the whole thing?!

    Definitely as the musical goes on you’ll miss important subtleties of the story if you just watch the animatics. The stage performance is so much better even with the lyrics over the top.

    First of all, this song really shows the amazing lyricism of Lin Manuel Miranda, i cant even begin to comprehend how someone comes up with this stuff. Second of all, I love Szin's animatics so much, id definetly be down for you reacting to more of them. I feel like they help breakdown the story better for first time viewers, but either way, id still watch lmao

    szin's videos are fantastic for act 1 and I always recommend them. the audio quality on the animatics are better but the choreography on the stage version is a must see, so I personally wouldn't mind if you are just going to react to the songs to do a double feature like you did here of the animatics and then the stage right after. I absolutely recommend checking out the actual musical up on Disney+ though

  • @mibadada
    @mibadada 3 роки тому +8

    So glad I found your channel! I am really excited to see more of your reactions, I love that you give analysis afterwards. I would prefer the actual show videos, but the animatics are good too - just make sure you have a way to see the lyrics, even if you have to look them up separately.

  • @weirdbunmi
    @weirdbunmi 3 роки тому +3

    I'd suggest going through the animatics and then watching the play straight through, having the reaction be audio only or on a timer so we can sync up.
    The animatics are very cute and Szin has done the entirety of Act I, and various other animators have done Act II. I think doing this would allow you to focus more on the stagecraft when you do watch the play. Many of us have seen it several times and forget it can be hard to get everything in one watch through. The choreography and stagecraft is absolutely stunning, and knowing the basic idea of the story would allow you to focus on them. I personally think the the play is superior to the animatics, so capping off a run of the animatics with the play would be a great experience

    Bit of double irony: Hamilton says through the entire musical that he's not going to "throw away his shot" BUT, at the duel he does AND the term is used to mean taking advantage of the chances you're given (a positive thing) but it actually originated as a duel term that eventually results in Hamilton's death (a negative).

    I would prefer you react to the live stage version. It has some wonderful things in it with the set design and the spinning stage. It's wonderful. The animatics, while the artists do input their own artistic choices that give a person who has never seen the stage play before a good picture of what's happening in the scenes, aren't as good imo as seeing the stage play. Do both if you can but if you have to choose one, do the live version.

  • @okcdog5439
    @okcdog5439 3 роки тому

    If you want to do both the animatic and stage versions, I would suggest doing the animatics first. That might enable you to pay closer attention to the action in the stage version, even if you do have to look beyond the lyrics. However, I would make an exception for the first King George song, "You'll Be Back." On that song, in particular, hearing the words as they are being delivered by Jonathan Groff has an impact that I think would be diluted if you had already seen the animatic version. Plus, that song is much slower and you should have an easier time following the lyrics.

    I don't care for the animated version. It actually will throw people off as to what the story is about, if they haven't seen the Staged Musical or the Film version. The animation slips ideas into the drawings that are meant to explain the meanings of the Music and Book, but really are ideas the animator came up with. They add nothing to the Songs and Script. They don't really follow the story as written and performed. If you must post them, I will skip them.
