The thing about movie musicals is that there have been some brilliant ones, but when they're bad, they're really bad - big white elephants.

I don't see that many plays, and for me, musicals are rarely pleasing.

The musicals that I love on stage are generally meant for the stage.

I think musicals can be more than what people imagine. That'll be the case with 'Matilda.' It's such a clever thing to stage. Parents would have read this when they were young and will want to share it with their children because they have such a fondness for the source.

But I think musicals are going to have to deal with important subjects.

Slightly forgettable movies can sometimes make great musicals.

I used to watch a lot of musicals as a kid. Musical movies, not so much musical theater.

I hate musicals, especially film musicals.

I've loved musicals ever since I saw 'The Lion King' on Broadway.

I grew up in a time when the only musicals were animated musicals because nobody wanted to see people to break into song.
