The pain of being a crap blogger

You're about to go to sleep.... when you think of a great idea for a blog post.
Movies with exclamation marks in their title - it's a dead giveaway - they're either horror/exploitation movies (countless drive-in fodder), trying too hard ("What A Way To Go!), a pisstake ("The Informant!", "Airplane!", "Mars Attacks!") or a musical "Oliver!", "Moulin Rouge!", "Oklahoma!", "Mamma Mia!"). Well, that was my great (original?) idea. Sounds good at 11:30 at night.
Then I google the punctuated movie titles.
Crap ... stacks of posts already, better written and researched than the above.
FAIL.
But my theory stands.

The best and worst movie stage musical adaptations

Which musicals made the transfer from stage to screen unscathed?  Here's one person's opinion.

The best musical adaptations:

• "Les Miserables" 2012
• "My Fair Lady" 1964
• "Little Shop of Horrors" 1986
• "Oliver!" 1968
• "How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying" 1967
• "A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum" 1966
• "Gypsy" 1962
• "Chicago" 2002
• "Sweeney Todd, the Demon Barber of Fleet Street" 2007(Tim Burton doing Sondheim! How good can it get?)

The worst musical adaptations:

• "Annie" 1982 version (poor John Huston)
• "Jesus Christ Superstar" 1973
• "Man of La Mancha" 1972 (calling this a turkey is high praise)
• "Hair" 1979 (just because the timing was wrong, 1968 becomes 1979?)
• "The Wiz" 1978 (poor Sidney Lumet)
• "Evita" 1996 (Madge as Evita sounded good on paper)

Too easy section (the makers couldn't possibly stuff it up):

• "The Sound of Music" 1966
• "West Side Story" 1961
• "Oklahoma" 1955
• "South Pacific" 1957
• "The King and I" 1956
• "Fiddler on the Roof" 1971
• "Funny Girl" 1968

The jury is still out (I'm fence sitting)

• "Hello Dolly" 1969
• "Paint Your Wagon" 1969
• "Camelot" 1967
• "Sweet Charity" 1968
• "Grease" 1978
• "Dreamgirls" 2006
• "The Producers" 2005
• "Guys and Dolls" 1955
• "A Chorus Line" 1985
