Well, the actor who plays the Phantom also plays Westly in The Princess Bride. He is very cute. For me, Raoul's face is too pointy...lol. I agree, the Phantom is hotter, even though the right side of his face is disfigured...

The actor who played the phantom is Gerard Butler..the guy who played Wesley is Carrey somthing, I believe. Unless i'm mixing Princess Bride with something else

I def. think the Phantom is hotter. I dont really find raoul attractive at all...the phantom is more...dangerous lol. And his deeper voice helps a lot! I prefer deep singing voices.

I have seen both the opera and the movie and I prefer the phantom over Raul anytime. Especially the one in the movie...LOL. But everytime I watch it I keep thinking to myself that Christine should have chosen the phantom.

lol! Well I haven't seen it on stage, I've only seen the movie. But that's what I always say/think when I watch it...that if I had been Christine I would have chosen the Phantom.

I prefer the Phantom in the movie version from 2004. Gerard Butler made the disfigured man look pretty good until the last scenes when the mask is removed. I usually prefer the Raoul character when I see the musical in person because it is harder to see the Phantom from far away.

Yeah agree that videos I have seen from the stage musicals the Raouls are usually more attractive. But not in the movies case! =P Even when the mask gets taken off I can still think the Phantom is hot because his hotness outdoes his disfigurement! =P lol

i may be wrong, but i think that something that was portrayed, was to make the phantom more desirable, in a "bad boy" sense. raul is more of the innocent character who is handsome and what we would want to have, but the phantom gives a sense of danger that makes you want him. thats what i got, but if you disagree id love to know what you think.
oh, and in answer to the question, i absolutely love the phantom much more than raul. rauls cute and all, but i cant get over his hair.

I agree with what you said about the whole situation. Raoul is "safer" but the phantom is...sexy! lol. And I agree, I cant stand raoul's hair! lol

Yeah, he was more obssessed than affectionate. But the sad thing is I think both he and Raoul really did love Christine.

LOL! I agree....his hotness (bad boyish good looks) with that voice is a killer! lol. After I saw the Phantom I just forgot about Raoul =P lol and started hating him for getting Christine! But of course...that does leave the Phantom free lol

The phantom is by far hotter than Raul. It could be because I have always had a thing for guys that had a touch of darkness. Or simply the fact that Gerald Butler is so fine.
