Wicked would be phenomenal and I know my mom would be very happy at a Jersey Boys movie.

I think Light In The Piazza would be veryy good. If Into the Woods was done by Tim Burton it would be a huge hit. I think Aida would really work well as an animated flick, because you could still use Beyonce's voice, you just wouldn't be seeing her act. I could have a "Prince of Egypt-y" feel. There are loads of musicals I'd like to see as movies. Like Thoroughly Modern Mille, Damn Yankees. New ones at least.
Side note- Scrap wicked the musical, just make a movie out of the book.

Dude, Young Frankenstein is already a movie. Did you mean like the Producers remake?

In The Heights would make a great movie!
I can't see Avenue Q being a movie, it would just ruin the whole expiernce.

Light in the Piazza already IS a movie. Though a rather dated one, 1962.
I would love an Into The Woods movie.

CARRIE directed by Uwe Boll.
"Impossible is just a big word thrown around by small men who find it easier to live in the world they've been given than to explore the power they have to change it. Impossible is not a fact. It's an opinion. Impossible is not a declaration. It's a dare. Impossible is potential. Impossible is temporary. Impossible is nothing.”

I could totally tolerate Avenue Q the movie. Considering how the muppet characters are so familiar on screen, and it's just downright hilarious.

What's with all the idiots posting "So and so IS a movie!"? No ****. We're discussing shows that we think should be made into movies. Your points are moot, irregardless, and stupid.

"We're discussing shows that we think should be made into movies."
If it already was a movie then why should it be again?
Thats like someone saying I think Rent should be made a movie...again.

except weebles for the movies that weren't originally musicals. Take Sunset Boulevard for example.

yep Hairspray is another great example. The original only had music in it, it was not a musical.

I truly think that of all the most popular musicals that have not been turned into a movie, "Wicked" has the epic scale to translate to a phenominal film.
Other potentially awesome movies:
Caroline, or Change
Crazy for You
Into the Woods
Side Show
110 in the Shade
Bat Boy

Ahh I get it now. :)
I still say Into The Woods.
And although I love the show, I'd be a bit weary about a Wicked movie.

This blog looks like a scraper, but here's something. (And I can't find the original source or another link.)
Among Marshall Brickman's many credits is his work collaborating with the early classic Woody Allen, “Sleeper,” “Manhattan,” and “Annie Hall” -for which they won the Oscar for Best Original Screenplay. Brickman is not involved with “Whatever Works,” the film that will open the upcoming Tribeca Film Festival starring Ed Begley, Jr. Evan Rachel Wood, Patricia Clarkson, and Larry David. M.C. of the night, Brickman talked about the movie of his Broadway hit “Jersey Boys” 3 or 4 years away from completion, how hard it is to schedule a meeting with 2 Jews and 2 Italians (including Frankie Valle). Not yet cast, he noted, you've got to have a star with a nose. “Don't even think about Leonardo DiCaprio.”
