Honestly I would kill for hadestown the musical as an animated movie. Or most musicals for that.

    The rest of the Berserk manga into anime. I’ve always wanted a continuation of the 1997 series. The 2016 one was… Eehhhhhh…

    Hazards of Love by the Decemberists would make such an amazing stage musical. The story is all in there, a lost child raised by the woods, a forbidden romance, a betrayal by the scorned mother with the ultimate death of the lovers together! Tie in with the rake B story for the intermissions and you have everything you need to work with.

    It would be a majestic mix of Rock ballad and Shakespearian tragedy.

    I would love to see The Protomen’s albums adapted into a muscial (assuming they ever finish Act 3). Reading the liner notes while listening along gets close, and they already did the music for “Terminator the Second” (musical shakespearian adaptation of Terminator 2).

    Oooh. I want the cartoon mini-series Over the Garden Wall to be adapted into a stage show. With the way the episode are written, it already feels like it’s divided by scenes and acts, and it has some existing musical numbers. I think there’s a lot of room to have lighting effects and other traditional theater elements, and have longer versions of the songs to make an enjoyable version of the story on par with the cartoon in a new medium.

    The video where Rev Bruce Howard scourges his own back while complaining about “studio lights so hot”, as a movie .

    I would die happy if I could watch an animated adaptation of Worm from the Parahumans universe. Live action would be cool, but I think a series in the same vein as Invincible would work well and could represent the source material better.

    I want an animated show of the Stormlight Archives. Something in the style of the Netflix Castlevania series or similar. I don’t think a live action show could do it justice without an insane budget.

      This, but also the Dresden Files. I never watched any of the live action show, but I think a series would be a success animated (with some reasonable fat cutting a la Vox Machina)

    I would love to see a spawn animated series using rotoscope. I know there is a TV show… But it is too short… And I think rotoscope style would fit and make it look really cool and original.
