elphebelle07, I thought about Benny and Joon, too!--I think it's a great piece of movie work and Johnny Depp was really a wonder to watch.
I say we start writint the "That Thing You Do" Libretto ASAP.
I say they do "1 Night In Paris, The Musical" Depends on how you lookat it.
I would also LOVE to see Prince Of Egypt. There are some good songs in the movie. But I am still pulling for That Thing You Do!

VENGO!
This would make an amazing stage show. Actually, the original film cast did a couple live performances in Madrid to introduce the film and it was a hit, but a very limited "run", LOL. I don't know why it wasn't followed up with a sitting or touring production or two.
The film VENGO a great modern musical and very adaptable to the stage. It wouldn't work in English, but there are enough Spanish speaking people in America, and don't people go to the opera no matter what the language is anyway? And this is Flamenco!
There are stage versions of TABOR UKHODIT V NEBO, but none have played over on this side of the pond. The film was beautiful, though technically rough in the dubbing of Grigore Grigoriu's songs. Still, I would love to see it.
Romey and Michele's High School Reunion. There could be a dance number called "I cut my foot before and my shoe is filling up with blood"

I agree but wonder if it would have the same fate as young frankenstien
I HAVE ALWAYS SAID THE PRINCE OF EGYPT!!! YAYAYAYAY! Deliver us would be phenomenal.
August Rush (in true billy elliot style... I don't know why they remind me so much of each other)
Center Stage
Down With Love
Once (actually... not really. I think it should stay as a film, but I would love to see Adam Pascal be the guy).
I agree with Newsies. Best Disney live action movie, IMHO. I also am fond of Bedknobs and Broomsticks.
