What are some of the Best Musicals made into Motion Pictures??? No I ain't gay.
I just like showtunes. My Pick for the best is Grease! News: Prince pulls his head out his ass in the last moment.
Bad News: Prince wasted too much quality time doing so. You have those internalized issues because you want to, you like to, stop. | |

My dad (not gay either) must have watched this over 50 times over about a 6-month period. We all kind of became obsessed with it. Now that I think about it, I quote this movie all the time... "This where ya wawsh claowz?!" And OMG her "polite conversation" at the race "does me in" every time. That movie is perfect. | |

that was never a musical made into a movie, it was written for the movies. Power tends to corrupt; absolute power corrupts absolutely. - Lord Acton | |

Dreamgirls is getting huge oscar buzz, so that should be good, and Hairspray is brilliantly cast, so those are this years contenders. Power tends to corrupt; absolute power corrupts absolutely. - Lord Acton | |

Singin in the Rain is one of the finest films ever, not just out of musicals, but out of every film in existence. | |

Ooh I forgot about that one! Definitely... but how sad is it that I originally learned the song from A Clockwork Orange? | |
