Phantom Of The opera

Share definition
An overblown, overhyped, overscored musical adaptation of Gaston Leroux' 1911 novel. Music by Andrew Lloyd Webber, who has ripped his tunes and style from Puccini and then beat them into the ground with an enormous sledgehammer.

Reduces the original novel, a satirical Gothic pastiche, to a simplified would-be meaningful, actually-is crap melodrama.

Includes such pathetic lyrics as rhyming "succumb to me" with "succumb to me," completely eviscerates the character of Raoul, and makes the 19th-century operatic genius the Phantom sound like a 1980s rock star.
I'm sorry I wasted $50 on a ticket to 'The Phantom of the Opera.' I thought it was a stage adaptation of the excellent 1925 silent Lon Cheney movie.

When you cum on half of a girl's face and let it run down her face so she looks like a organ playing freak.
Last night after sex I turned my girl's face to the side while she was sleeping and gave her a Phantom of the Opera

While having sex doggy style, invert one hand over your face to make a phantom mask. Once mastered you can graduate to the Captain America.
Last night I pulled off the Phantom of the Opera with the wife, next time I'm going for the Captain America.
