I know the live singing thing seems to impress a lot of people, but I can't help wondering if maybe they'd have been better off in a more ideal recording environment.
I kept seeing the trailer where they talked like this and was thinking, "Is that a GOOD IDEA? Maybe the people who never did that before were ON to something?" Especially since they didn't necessarily cast singers. I guess Jackman basically comes out of musical theater but I don't know if any of the other leads did.
(I don't really have any opinions about the trailer or about Les Miz itself, which I've never seen, but the presentation is weird.)
