It is really crazy to think they would ever consider it for a Disney movie, But I love it!
The music really is great!
Absolutely love this movie and the live show was one of the best things Disney ever did in parks in my opinion. (my Dad has one of the ace of hearts cards that Quasi used to rip in two, just asked a CM for it at the end)
