Thats fine :) Its just a movie that has some following.

Personally I love RHPS. It reminds me of when I watched it with friends over bad pizza. It reminds me of good times. It gives me nostalgia for things that I've never personally experienced. I love the music itself and I have seen the play a few times over my life. Sure the plot is dumb. Sure the characters make no sense. But to some people, me included, the movie distills a certain feeling that I like and delivers it perfectly.

I understand why someone wouldnt like it. And thats fine. I personally dont like lots of things other people like. We're all different. Just because you are bi, and CD dont tink that you "should" like it. I'm a cis white male, absolutely nothing remarkable about me.

Its just a movie :)

Some of the songs are catchy but the characters act in no way normal people should and I GET THAT is the point but I guess they just did too good of a job? It's the same reason I don't watch the Office: they just did too good a job of making these characters annoy the piss out of me.
