Hamilton sucked and had very terrible stances. Blame him for the Fed.

Obviously he’s a very important part of our history but I always feel he’s overrated because he decided to throw a duel.



Great men are almost always bad men. And while I disagree with the overwhelming majority of his political stances, Hamilton was a great man.

Some very talented people on that stage. The dude playing Thomas Jefferson is incredible.

They used too many close hard cut camera shots for my liking, but it was overall very well done.

I hope this becomes normal. I wish they had filmed and released every broadway original cast show.

It’s so funny I’ve sat second row on shows before and seeing the spit on camera flying

Dude he’s the absolute best. He was great in Blackish as well. He’s just so animated. I like his Lafayette and what did I miss the best behind here comes the general.

I thought about watching it, but then realized I was supposed to be triggered and offended by cultural appropriation when characters are not played by an actor of their same race. Not wanting to support such cultural appropriation, I just can’t make myself watch it. Or the Simpsons. Anymore.

That would be awesome. I agree and hope this kicks it off.

This. Love Sweeney Todd. Opened me to more musicals.

Is there a free trial period ( wink ) for Disney plus?

Nope, but it's only $7 a month. Or, you can bundle it with Hulu and the total is $13 a month, if you'd feel better about that

No Whites allowed. Racism, anyone?

It’s only cultural appropriation if white people do it, I guess.

I have seen many, many, MANY shows on Broadway in NYC, including Hamilton. I liked Hamilton, but didn't love it---definitely overhyped. I was also disgusted by the way they called out VP Pence when he visited the theater. Rude.
I plan to watch it again on Disney+ tonight. Maybe I will like it better the second time. The King George song "You'll Be Back" was awesome though.

Never have cared for rap, but I loved Hamilton -- would go and see it again. Will definitely watch it on Disney+.

What impressed me most about it is how almost all dialogue is done in song. Really amazing actually. We saw it in Chicago when Wayne Brady played Aaron Burr, dude is fantastic.

Why do I get the feeling that the latter influence the former...
