This is the choice! This is the point of no return!

Sorry about the picture quality.

The power of the music of the night.

Christine, that’s all I ask of you.

Oh.

The lit candelabras that rise from the water were not done with special effects or CGI lights: the special wicks ignited when they reached the air. This effect was done in one take and didn’t work again after that.

"E” referring to Erik, of course. Syncing V for Vendetta with Phantom isn’t exactly a stretch. Witty, misanthropic, deformed masked men abducting beautiful young women? Check. Capes, hats, high melodrama? Check. Murder? Check. Explosives blowing up large buildings? Check. It totally works! Specifically, I’m referencing this scene. Incidentally, I think Natalie Portman would make a beautiful Christine, and I have a feeling she’d play the character with a lot of spunk, which I love. 

A few teaser shots from the Phantom of the Opera photoshoot that the girlfriend and I did today. I’m so bloody happy with how they turned out, and will post more as they come in! Erik: Me Christine: Tallest Silver Photos by: Arian Hormozi Photography
