Musicals into Movies

I can't see Avenue Q being made into a movie. I mean, it's a great show, but I don't know how it would be as a movie. The whole person/puppet thing is what I really liked about the show. I don't think it would be the same on screen.

Avenue Q (if done the way of Sesame Street) could be hilarious. It is hard though because that's as far as making it adaptable into a moive script. as for making it appeal to others, i dont know. its so much better on stage, lets leave it at that.
You're A Good Man Charlie Brown was actually turned into a musical movie. It was animated and had every song and sketch from the show. It was great. Wicked i would like to see if they changed the book around a little and Schwartz cut afew songs and added a few. Just to make it better for film. Hairpsray, im not happy they're making this. I did not enjoy the show and I love the original movie. I will not be going to see this movie.

I don't know if this is right or not but I heard that it was gonna become a movie w/ Demi Moore but then they bought the rights away for the movie and made it a musical.

spider, I've heard it too. They've been planning it for years now. But I don't know wheather they're going to make it a big screen version à la THE PHANTOM OF THE OPERA or release it as dvd right away as they did with CATS and JESUS CHRIST SUPERSTAR. The last I heard of it was the straight-to-dvd plan i.e. shoot the theatre version as they did with CATS and JCS.
