Each day, the Bbox team trolls YouTube for the hot clip—sometimes it's a brand-new moment and sometimes it's a throwback to an oldie but goodie. No matter what praise hands are shot up, pearls are clutched and the repeat button is hit.

"96,000" from In The Heights (Anthony Ramos and Christopher Jackson)


Ulterior Motives: We have an honest question for you. How many times have you watched this trailer and this trailer since they've been released less than 24 hours ago? Is the answer more or a lot more than 5 times? On June 18th, (94 days but who's counting?) we are going to be blessed with the film adaptation of In The Heights. Stepping in to Lin-Manuel Miranda's shoes for the film adaptation is Hamilton Broadway's original John Laurens/Philip Hamilton himself, Anthony Ramos. Keep your eyes peeled while watching the trailers though because you might see a familiar Piragua Guy and Ice Cream Truck salesman. In honor of the trailers being released, we found this gem from the 2019 Tony Awards commercial break. During James Corden's impromptu karaoke moments in the audience, our future Usnavi joins original Benny Christopher Jackson for a really amazing "96,000" in the aisles!

Ultimate 🙌 🙌 moment: We love Anthony's response at 1:09 when James asked him if he needed the lyrics. Our ultimate moment without a doubt is the excitement Anthony has at 1:21 when he spots former Hamilton co-star Christopher Jackson in the audience to join him for the number because we know magic is about to happen. Anthony's lyric delivery from 1:58 - 2:08 is just thrilling and made us so excited to see the film if we weren't already. Then we got all up in our feels at 2:09. Did we pick 96,000 moments?
