#and while im partial to the bway version i do believe that they’re both great in their own way

okay my unpopular opinion is that the 92 movie and the broadway version each have their charms and neither is inherently better or worse than the other and fansies that fight about it or bash one version are big meanie heads

I partially agree!

92sies tells the story better and it focuses a tad bit more on the background Newsies (like Spot, Race, Boots, etc.), which I love.

(Bway) Newsies is an overall better musical (the songs, music and choreography are absolutely amazing and much more organized than 92sies (if that makes sense)).

While I do agree that they both have their strengths and weaknesses, the stage adaptation will always win in my book.

However, I do agree about the people who constantly badmouth Newsies for the stage vs Newsies for the screen, it needs to stop.

#tbh ive seen people who prefer 92sies more relentlessly dig into (bway) newsies #like what for? #why is every other post a dig at (bway) newsies? just enjoy the beauty of 92sies- #and im not necessarily talking about people on tumblr #just people on the internet in general #i once saw someone rip apart newsies because they were annoyed that jack sang about santa fe every moment he got #which isn’t even true because 92sies jack sings about santa fe the same amount of time newsies jack does #it was just another excuse to rip apart the stage show #i don’t see a lot of 92sies hate unless it’s about christian bale’s singing or *shudders* the santa fe dance break #and other than that it’s just light teasing #even though ​(bway) newsies seems to be preferred on here it still gets way more hate than 92sies imo #so if you like one over the other that’s fine #but please don’t completely rip it apart #and while im partial to the bway version i do believe that they’re both great in their own way #asks <3
