The #1 place for people who love Broadway.
13
What do you guys all not like about the show?
I know a lot of you arent big fans, so what's do you think is wrong with it?
I think that it is over-spoken about, and very childish, and not something a 13/12 year old would be talking about.

-sigh- Let's not have another purely-argument thread guys. Jason was speaking about the majority of fans, not you specifically. I think a lot of Rent and Wicked fans are annoying as hell, too, but that doesn't mean I hate my close friends who are fans, does it? He was just generalizing.

You don't fit the mold. That makes you a target. Even among people who supposedly all "don't fit the mold," you're supposed to subscribe to a certain way of "not fitting the mold." I find it very sad when people who know what it's like to be the outsider create outsiders from within. Someone's always "not a big enough fan" or worse, not "the right kind of fan" or, the thing that you and I seem to get stuck with, the one who "hates everything." Perhaps it's a desire to finally have a place to "fit in." Who knows?
The reality is that we all come to this place from different places and bring different experiences with us. How anyone can plan to have a career in musical theatre--the most collaborative of all artforms--with some of the attitudes I see here is beyond me.

that's what 13 is all about... being okay with who you are and becoming your own person. "Fitting in" is not really all that important so long as you have friends. Peter, you of all people should know that. It isn't right for either of you to alienate the other just because of his opinion on this one show. It's Brett and Evan all over again! Personally, I feel like i've gained a lot of self-confidence from 13. I've found a character nearly identical to myself in Patrice, with being a bit of a geek and wanting to get out of my small town. I wasn't really sure how to deal with feeling that way until 13, so for that I'll always be grateful.

you're not a target. if you feel that way, its because you are always saying things that just dont need to be said. you said you dont like 13 and thats fine. everyone has the right to not like a show. but you can leave the fanbase out of things. because once you begin t mention PEOPLE that you dont like, whether it's one specific person or a group of people, it will always end up offending people. and obviously, everyone on this website knows that i love 13, so when you started talking about 13fans, it was expected that i would take offense. but now mentioning me and saying that i am immature, you're just taking it too far. so if you dont want to feel like a target, i suggest you just stop criticizing other people. criticize show all you want, but dont talk about me. k? thanks.

I know I'm probably just being an instigator, but I feel it has to be said.
Peter, if you acted less immature around here, we wouldn't make these comments. Someone made a general statement about 13 fans, and you suddenly get snippy, and I've seen this in nearly every thread about 13 you comment in. It was not a personal attack on you specifically. A lot of people here insult Phantom of the Opera, one of my favorite musicals. Do I freak out? No!
So please just act more mature around here. It would make things a lot better for everyone. -

Yeah I just have to say, Peter you DON'T have to attack or get snippy at someone just because they don't like 13. Trust me there are more people who hate 13 than people who love it. You are going to find haters of every show. You just have to grow up and deal with it. There is never going to be a show everyone loves. This is a forum and people should feel free to express their opinions without getting attacked. Jason never said any comments directly towards you. It is fine you love 13 you will have to accept That it has so many flaws and a lot of people don't like it.
