  I agree but the pick of destiny is fucking fire 🔥
context: I’m not a fan of musicals other than one or two (idk why, but I’ve always liked Grease), but I don’t get why people on Reddit bash them to death. 
  Musicals, like most other forms of entertainment, require suspension of disbelief to work. Nobody speaks and then over-the-top sings and acts out of nowhere with synchronized choreography. Just like most slasher film killers are able to overcome just about anything, comedies often have the most unrealistic and outlandish situations, etc. 
  It is what it is 🤷🏼 >
  
  Oh totally, I don’t like musicals but I didn’t know people bash them on Reddit. My fiancé and her family love them so I’m surrounded by people that like them, I didn’t know they were unpopular on here >
  
  Only the most sheltered teens think this is an unpopular opinion. And they repost it constantly >
  
  It depends what type of musical it is. >
  
  Nope. It's a common opinion for people to dislike musicals. It's goofball silly to pretend it's rare or unpopular >
  
  Theres alot of pretend, my freind. >
  
  Would you think it's an unpopular opinion to dislike pineapple on pizza, even though there is enough people who like it to get every pizza place to carry pineapple? >
  
  Cringe is made up concept. 
  I was gunna something very realistic but im to high atm >
  
  Which musical pissed u off into thinking so LMAO >
  
  Listening to Hadestown, about to see it tonight. Even watching Hamilton is awkward to an extent in the same way all musicals are. Watched In The Heights and that was a rough watch >
  
  Cringe is the wrong word. You're right to say that they're over the top, but when has a musical ever pretended to be realistic?
  Also, disliking musicals is EXTREMELY popular among young people these days. Not at all an unpopular opinion. The only musical that has revived mainstream attention in the last 10 years or so is Hamilton, mostly because it was unlike most other musicals (i.e. a rap/pop musical). >
  
  Man people really dislike the word cringe huh? I would have changed it, I personally cringe when I watch them, it’s like painful to watch them. 
  But yeah I guess I’m surrounded by a strong outliers, around me thinking musicals are cringe is an unpopular opinion >
  
  Where you're wrong is using cringe in this context. People use that as a synonym for second hand embarrassment or just simply something they don't like to see or would not do themselves. Cringe as a sensation is when you are so uncomfortable by something that your body physically reacts to it strongly. I refuse to believe musicals have this effect on you. >
  
  Sweeney Todd was pretty badass. Just saying. >
  
  Downvote, not unpopular to me.
