Jeesh…don’t get me started… This has been a MAJOR peeve of mine for the past few years…
We’ve got these twenty-something nitwits making movies out of recycled tv shows that were old when I was a kid, and now my kids thinks it’s something new…
I’m waiting for the movie version of Daktari, starring Samuel A. Jackson.
Left Behind-the Musical!
Oooh…even better:
Get ready: Jack Chick Tracts-the Musical!
You guys are forgetting an entire field of musical theater.
Remember “Nixon in China?” You don’t? Well, trust me; it happened.
Coming soon:
“Arafat in Ramallah.”
“Don’t cry for me, Colin Powell,
The truth is I need a shower
I’m plotting revenge
'gainst Ariel Sharon
Give him this package
Please just don’t shake it.”
I’m sitting here… Nice and full after a yummy mexican lunch at papacitos… And I can’t get the mental image of Christopher Walken as the lead in Harry Potter: The Muscial.
I was channel surfing and caught the last half of him in a disney music video. I almost shat myself.
“Purple Rain = The Musical!”
…and Lamia, you can’t have Iggy until he’s finished with the first season of “The Final Days of Sodom and Gomorrah - The Musical.” He plays the part of the avenging cuckold.
Camelot: The Musical.
Bwhaaahaaa!
What?
Ask and ye shall receive :The Diary of Anne Frank - The Musical
OK, so it’s really off, off, off, off, off Broadway, but it may only be a matter of time before it’s imported.
[sub]Hell, at least it ain’t an anime version? Jews using thermoptic camouflage to hide from tentacled Nazis in battle mechs![/sub]

d’oh!
Actually, wasn’t this done by Mel Brooks?
“Springtime for Hitler and Germaneee…”
(I know, it was a play-within-a-film The Producers, later made into a play-within-a-play for Broadway.)
My sincere hope is that this idiot gets so inundated by original, well written scripts from all of us struggling writers out here that she is suffocated in a pile of black ink and Hewlitt Packard printer paper.
EAT IT BITCH… EAT IT. BWAHAHAHAHAA…
ahem.
Of course…I don’t write musicals. I think that coming up with music out of ones head is a really tall order.
“It’s the story of a dimwitted Broadway producer who died when a pile of original scripts fell on her.”
Since “The Producers” was so successful on Broadway, it’s only a matter of time before more Third Reichian themes are produced. My nominations:
“The Man In The Glass Booth”, with Ben Vereen in the role made famous by Maximilian Schell.
or “Judgment at Nuremberg”.
I present to you rec.arts.tv.mst3k.misc’s all-too-frightening vision of the future…Disney’s “The Fountainhead.”
“It’s a Small, Small World - The Broadway Musical!”
Believe me, you really will go home humming the hit from the show.
It’s a world of high
It’s a world of low
It’s a world of stop
It’s a world of go
It’s a world of shopping
It’s a world of Mall
It’s a small world after all…!
B:I love you Janet
J:I love you Brad
Our love is good
B:It is not bad
Iwill marry you
J:I will be your wife
Both:It’s a small world all our life
Villain:(aside) When I see them kiss
I feel very mad!
I will spoil their plans
Then they will be sad
I’ll chain saw them both
And then I will laugh
It’s a small world cut in half!
etc etc

The smiley, though oddly appropriate, was unintentional.

** Garp ** the musical. This has been proposed several times. How they will do the famous accident scene is anyone’s guess. Of course, that leads to ** The Bobbits **.
Broadway can really hack them off…er, up.
Redboss, you are an evil, evil, evil man.
I was going to suggest Jack the Ripper: The Musical!, but my friend told me that there’s already a real Jack the Ripper musical. Damn.
