I have to see these movies as musicals!

[@ForTheLoveOfMusicals]

I’d love a Dumplin musical, but they need to bring back the lesbian and the disabled side character. I really liked the film until I read the book and realised they took out some of the representation, which I find especially frustrating in a movie that’s marketed for it’s representation

[@elsaj535]

Also, speaking of Disney, we need an Encanto musical. I know Amy didn't like this movie, but for me it's top tier

[@manuelorozco7760]

Me too! I still can't pick a particular favorite song. It's not easy to find a particular bop when the songwriter is Lin Manual Miranda.

There is a Tangled musical that was made for the Disney Cruise Line a few years back. I think Alan Menken worked on it, and I sure hope that it has another major production someday. I love your videos, Amy!

Yes I watch it a couple times during the beginning of COVID and really liked it. And that’s right Alan Menken wrote the new songs. The only thing that was off was the casting choice for Eugen and his song wasn’t that good. If it was transferred to Broadway the sets could be wonderful.

[@manuelorozco7760]

I loved the Tangled series more so than the movie

[@Mitali]

I think Penelope would make a great musical. All the ingredients are there! Simple familiar story, fun twist, zany characters, a mum who's fabulous and horrendous in equal measure. I mean can you imagine the musical number when the rumours of a pig faced girl appear? All the town talking about it!

[@bardlover6]

I would LOVE for you to do this concept but with Books that Should be Musicals. Also one movie that is currently being created and shown in a small scale is The Craft. I keep seeing stuff on TikTok from it! One I would LOVE to see is Practical Magic. I feel like it could be kind of surreal and whimsical, and of course they would have to have Lime in the Coconut as one of the songs!

[@LoraK31]

La La Land and Burlesque are some movie musicals that could work for stage! When it comes to movies that aren't already movies, I think I would say Stardust (the movie based on the Neil Gaiman book), Hocus Pocus, and The Princess Diaries would be cool!

[@AllySheehan]

[@laurabunn2993]

Moana Jr. is actually a show! Our local children's theater group did an amazing production of this and it's as beautiful as you think it should be.

[@chasetomberlin5084]

Star Wars is a space opera. So obviously it should be a legit opera. Imagine what the MET could pull off, production value wise.

[@jackrough5784]

I’ve thought about Moana becoming a musical in the past, and I think the only issue would be that a large portion of the movie is just Moana sailing around only talking to heihei and the ocean

[@averytrexel]

[@DisneyMissieMouse]

I can just picture Moira’s wall of wigs on a set😂😂

[@BeckyMD26]

I think a musical of the movie If I Stay with Chloé Grace Moretz would be brilliant and very emotional. If you haven’t heard about it then it’s about a girl who has a car accident with her family and she ends up being put in a coma. The movie is basically her having an out of body experience and she has to figure out whether she wants to die or come back to life and it’s such a beautiful story but it’s heartbreaking and I think about how well Ghost the musical did, that show was beautiful. I really think If I Stay would be just as gorgeous and with some of the effects that shows can do today, I really think it would be a masterpiece.

[@benvine2345]

I think Cruella on Disney + would be such a good musical!

[@bexyPTX]

For some reason my first thought of a movie that could be a musical and I haven’t already seen someone say was Scott Pilgrim. I mean it already has some songs and a plot just weird enough to work.

[@elisakluger9147]

I think Love Actually, the Great Gatsby, Edward Scissor Hands, Rocketman and Coco should be added to the list

[@faffolite]

Gatsby been done and scissor is a ballet

[@mollywalker5790]

Gatsby is being made as a musical with Florence Welch writing the music

[@alex.bradford]

A Star Is Born and La La Land definitely need to be made into musicals

[@hellformichelle]

I genuinely think la la land would be kinda boring as a musical. Maybe that's just because the movie almost bored me to sleep, but I don't think there's enough story there to make a compelling musical

[@ella9120]

[@netgeekdoggirl]

Dumplin so true For some reason i wanted a Warm bodies musical ever since ive seen the movie

[@mileslawlor6189]

Sorry if this has been said already but two that come to mind are: 1. Never Been Kissed - I think if it had this turn of the century pop-ness to it, synths, maybe in the same vein as “Wedding Singer” (another Drew 90s film), and really be able to expand and maybe shift how much image and the sense of belonging, and just growing and loving as individuals; having the high schoolers seeing one another, is SO important!! There’s so much room for character development (particularly with Aldys and how she views it all). Hell even an epic flashback and Josie having a huge power ballad about just grappling with the past later in life and processing it. UGH I’d be so here for it!! 2. Encanto - again so much more room for expanding and exploring the Madrigals. I’d love to see a huge number leading up and into Antonio’s room when he earns his gift and then this huge shift of celebration into the yearning and desperation, and honestly sadness, of “Waiting On A Miracle”. Also Bruno really expressing how much he still loves his family and his secret want of just wanting to be accepted and him and Mirabel having that rich bonding moment. Also technically, HELLO, this show would put Frozen to shame, COMPLETELY!! Also the costume design and lighting… UGH “Surface Pressure” and “What Else Can I Do?” in these fantasy/metaphorical images around them like the movie… YES MA’AM!! Also Lin, even if it might be a little too much Lin these days. Love your page, Amy!! 😊♥️ - Miles L., USA

Would love to see Dumplin' as a musical! Although it's already a movie musical, I'd love to see Rocketman as a stage show! I think the way the some of the scenes were shot (Saturday Night's Alright for Fighting and Honky Cat) would look great on the stage.

[@solcarlosofficial]

I love moana but after the little mermaid show maybe underwater stories dont work that good onstage 😂😂😂 besides the story is more for a quest story so I dorn think the themes are complex enough for a show. Like I can’t imagine them adding any more songs.

[@patriciaedwards1953]

There's actually a Moana Jr musical, so I think there's hope for a full version! (I actually saw the pilot version at JTF Aus in 2019!) My list of dream film to musicals: Labyrinth (like, come on! Incredible sets, costumes, PUPPET DESIGN!!! Like I can SEE Magic Dance being performed at the Tonys. Also Tom Hiddleston as Jareth would be golden) Juno (literally the same thoughts as you ahaha) The Muppets 2011 (THE NUMBERS WOULD BE AMAZING) South Park: Bigger, Longer and Uncut (with added songs/altered plot to encompass newer important story arcs - like I'd LOVE to see a cute duet between Tweek and Craig with Tweek being afraid to join La Revolution, and Craig being the amazing, supportive boyfriend he is) (also I need Ethan Slater as Kyle and Bette Midler or Patti LuPone as Mrs Brovlofski - either of them would bring the house down with Blame Canada!!!) How To Train Your Dragon (but as an arena musical - I'd love to see it done in collaboration with Cirque De Soleil) Rise of the Guardians (okay, hear me out - Jack making his little ice paths to close across the stage on. The ice is projection mapped like Frozen. How does he glide? Give my boy heelies. Those converse style heelies. Also, a big opening number called Snow Day, an antagonistic duet between Jack and Bunny... I kinda see Panic! At The Disco writing this one. And have Sandy be written for deaf, HoH or non-verbal/mute performers. Also Patrick Page as North and Tom Hiddleston as Pitch Black - he just has that vibe lol) Not as a musical, but I would KILL for a stage adaptation of Knives Out. Like URGH, it'd just be SO GOOD!!! And last one (though it's not a film, it's got a film adaptation coming I believe this year) Red, White and Royal Blue (which I totally haven't already written half a song for, what?)

Maybe I'm biased cause it's my all-time favourite comfort book/movie, but Perks of Being a Wallflower. There are already so many important musical moments like when they go to Rocky Horror, Heroes (or Landslide for the book) in the tunnel, the living room routine to Come on Eileen. I can just imagine like similar to the Tick Tick Boom movie how Jonathan writes down lyrics to Louder Than Words throughout the movie, Charlie would slowly write/sing the final number about realizing what really happened with his aunt. Imagine Patricks number when he's telling Charlie about Brad, all the songs would be quite sad and folky, like once vibes
