How amazing would Kristen Bell be as Audrey in a LITTLE SHOP re-make? She truly gets camp like few actresses, her performance in REEFER MADNESS was so in the style of LITTLE SHOP.
I think some of these would be better as TV films (LITTLE SHOP would be one of them, a la REEFER MADNESS which made for a wonderful TV movie).
I don't think A CHORUS LINE can successfully be translated into film, perhaps if Michael Bennett was still around, but really I rather not have another director have a go at it and ruin it again. Plus what BO names can they cast that would be able to perform the choreography?
Oh, and THE KING & I is a fantastic film that does NOT need a re-make. And CABARET is too perfect a movie, though I know there are a lot of people out there who are hoping for a more faithful adaptation, the Fosse film is basically a different musical altogether.
"Some people can thrive and bloom living life in a living room, that's perfect for some people of one hundred and five. But I at least gotta try, when I think of all the sights that I gotta see, all the places I gotta play, all the things that I gotta be at"
