Heather D.: Didn't this come out, like, two years ago?

J.D.: My thoughts exactly.

Philip: Yeah, but... Hugh Jackman! He's a legend!

Me: Well said! And it is a good movie! Let's start watching!

[Timeskip to "The Greatest Show"]

Usnavi: Ooh, I like the music!

Nina: Yeah, it's really catchy.

King George: So... Barnum finds these... exotic people and puts them in a circus?

Me: Yeaaaaah, that's the whole premise of the film, that and his personal life.

[Timeskip to "A Million Dreams"]

Hamilton: Wow... he's quite the dreamer. Just like me!

Burr: (Rolls his eyes at what Hamilton said) We get it!

Peggy: Yeah, you should be optimistic even in a bad situation.

Veronica: Whoa! P.T. and Charity are adults now!

Anne Boleyn: They grew up so fast!

[Timeskip to "A Million Dreams (Reprise)"]

Heather M.: Awww, his daughters are so cute!

Jane Seymour: I know, right?

[Timeskip to "Come Alive"]

Veronica: "Dead man walking"! That reminds me of "Dead Girl Walking"! Get it? Cause... okay, I'll stop now.

Jefferson: Wait... he's getting all these, well, for a lack of a better word, freaks, and making them into a circus, which means he's profiting off of them... is that ethical?

Hamilton, Burr, and King George: That was exactly what I was wondering! Hey! You can't agree with me!

Catherine of Aragon: (Facepalms at them)

[Timeskip to "The Other Side"]

King George: I've watched this before and I have to say this is my favorite song.

Philip: Yeah, same here.

Eliza: It IS really catchy.

(Everyone sings along at the last chorus)

[Timeskip to "Never Enough"]

Angelica: THIS is my favorite song in the movie.

Peggy: Yeah, she sang this at karaoke and slayed it!

Anna of Cleves: Parr sang it, too!

Carla: This song is about Jenny's never being satisfied... who does that remind us of?

Benny: (Points to Angelica and Hamilton) Them. That's their theme song right here!

[Timeskip to "This Is Me"]

Veronica: I like the message of this song!

Madison: Yeah, it is important to embrace yourself!

Sonny: Yep. It's a good reminder for us if we're feeling down because of what others say about us... wow... I got a bit deep there.

Heather M.: I wish this song were around longer than it has been...

Katherine Howard: Yeah, it could've helped a lot of people. AND this song is iconic!

[Timeskip to "Rewrite the Stars"]

Heather C.: Ugh, a love duet... those are cheesy.

Everyone: SHUT UP!

Laurens: This song is beautiful and no one can say otherwise!

Mulligan: (Tearing up) Well said! I'm not crying, you are!

[Timeskip to "Tightrope"]

Peggy: Huh... she's at home, singing about how great it is to be Barnum's wife, while he is not at home with Jenny Lind, who, later in the movie, kisses him and stuff...

Angelica: That sounds eerily familiar! (Glares at Hamilton)

Hamilton: (Puts his hands up) That was ONE TIME!

Catherine Parr: You still messed up. At least Barnum didn't write a whole pamphlet about it!

[Timeskip to "Never Enough (Reprise)"]

Usnavi: Welp, she got rejected.

Sonny: Well, she did hit on a married man, so...

Daniela: Yeah, you're right.

[Timeskip to "From Now On"]

Jane Seymour: Oh, no! The circus caught on fire!

Anne Boleyn: But Barnum's here to lift their spirits!

Daniela: And he vows to become a better man and husband.

Benny: Yeah, he used to chase after the glory and money, but he realized that's not all what life's about.

[The movie ends]

Me: So, how did everyone like the movie?

Katherine Howard: It was very good! I haven't watched it in a while so it was nice to see it again!

Benny: Yeah, it was a great movie and I loved the songs!

Burr: Yep! I think I'm going to buy the soundtrack.

Heather D.: Eh... there are better movies.

Me: ...and Hugh Jackman will be back on Broadway again, so that's great but also not great... (Whispers) It was too soon for Beetlejuice! (In normal volume) ANYway... that's all the time we have for today! Feel free to vote, comment, and leave a request! Bye, everybody!

Everyone: Bye!
