Bioshock: The musical

[Vegeta187x]

A) You can make a musical out of anything. Even Spider-Man.

B) Anybody who says musicals are terrible are wrong.

C) Bioshock the Musical will only work if a Big Daddy has a touching, spotlight-driven ballad about his eternal struggle to protect the Little Sisters.

D) Spider Slicer choreography that involves wires and dancing on the ceiling.

That is all.

Good Musicals

Avenue Q
South Park: Bigger, Longer and Uncut.
Spamalot
Return To The Forbidden Planet
The Rocky Horror Picture Show
Little Shop Of Horrors
Springtime for Hitler - The Producers
Once More With Feeling - Buffy
Jerry Springer - The Opera

More "Highbrow" musicals

Phantom of the Opera
Les Miserables
Oliver!
Singing In The Rain
West Side Story
Grease
The Wizard Of Oz
Bugsy Malone
Charlie And The Chocolate Factory
Chitty Chitty Bang Bang

Seriously, if you don't like at least one of that list, then I feel sorry for you.

You really need to see Urinetown, assuming it's still being performed. One of the best musicals I've seen in recent years, and it was written by someone who graduated from my highschool.

 

[Christemo]

NOOOOOOOOOOO. HOW THE HELL ARE THEY SUPPOSED TO SHOOT BEES OUT OF THEIR HANDS IN A MUSICAL. OR FOR THAT POINT, WHOS GONNA PLAY THE BIG DADDIES AND FONTAINE?

 

[Latinidiot]

most people think of the gameplay, but you could make something pretty nice with the concept of a corrupted underwater Utopia
and the songs!
A MAN CHOOSES, A SlAVE OBEYS (HIT A GONG)
A MAN CHOOSES, A SLAVE OBEYS! (and again)
A MAN CHOOSES, A SLAVE OBEYS!! (HIT A GONG and watch the man fall)
it would be EPIC
i can sing
i m a dude, by the way, so no high pitching for me


i can also draw, as you can see in my avatar, I only had to shrink it down to the needed size and stuff

 

[The_root_of_all_evil]

Okay, fine.
Musicals, like people, are dicks horrible until proven otherwise.

Heh, and you've not tried "Shoggoth On The Roof" [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=toHEiLcS4uA&feature=related] yet

 

[Cowabungaa]

Alright, as promised, I came up w/ one (keep in mind, it's not fully done.)

Can't Touch Her (sung to Can't Touch This)

Can't Touch Her
do-do-do-do--doo-do
Can't Touch Her
do-do-do-do--doo-do
Can't Touch Her
do-do-do-do--doo-do
Can't Touch Her
do-do-do-do--doo-do
Can't Touch Her
do-do-do-do--doo-do

My, my, my why they gotta hit so hard?
Makes me wanna hit them hard
Ryan has grafted me
Into a diving suit right on skin
Gotta drill 'em in the face
Drill 'em to the ground
For messing with my girl
And you shoulda known,
Can't touch her

I told you now splicer (can't touch her)
Yeah, livin' under water now (can't touch her)
Look at me man, (can't touch her)
I gotta big ass drill for a hand! (can't touch her)

Bust 'em down! oh-aaaaaaahhhhhhh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh--oooooohhhhhh-aaaaaahhhhhh Stop! Daddy time!
Now everywhere you see me
From Fort Frolic to the Hights
it's go Daddy, go Daddy, go Daddy, damn Big Daddy!
And the rest of 'em know

Can't touch her
Can't touch her
Can't touch her
Can't touch her
Can't touch her
Can't touch her
Can't touch her
Can't touch her

Holy shit dude... You just won the thread, can I have your babies? This is brilliant. I can already see a Big Daddy doing this...in Hammer pants....ow my GOD, that's just fantastic!

*ahem*

A Bioshock musical...it HAS to be tongue-in-cheek, this can't be done purely serious, it would be hilarious though.

 

[Lazzi]

Thats on opinion. Watch Chicago and Mulan Rouge.

No, really?
It was an opinion?
I didn't know!
How could I have?

It's not like I'm the one who formed it.
Anyway, no.
I don't like musicals, hence my opinion that they're horrid.

Incidentally, I don't get the point of saying "Well that's just your opinion."
It's not like I was offering objective facts up for someone to refute.

Are you capable of being any thing other than a narcissistic ass?

Do you truly belive that your opinion is so high above all others that you must state your every thought as if its a fact?

 

[ssgt splatter]

Ugh, no. Too many things have already been ruined by a musical adaptation. Lets not give anyone any ideas.

I agree.

*waves finger while talking in sassy black woman voice* Oh no you didn't!

 

[Lord George]

I like Musicals and if they could make one about Lovecrafts works then they can damn well make a Bioshock ones, I've got a whole host of song ideas lined up

- Oh my Plasmids
- Big Daddy mumba
- Splice. Splice. Splice
- The means of production
- Go back Jack
- Big brother

 

[Lord Beautiful]

I can imagine the Big Daddies being basso profundo-type singers

 

[sky14kemea]

wow this thing is getting...

kinda popular?

its getting attention anyways XD

It would be grand. However, I would still want it to be a CGi movie.

probably a good idea, since most people from the escapist are from different country's, it'd be really hard to get together XD

 

[DavisJ3608]

No. Things in computers should stay in computers.

Great quote.

Now I want to redo "Mama Said Knock You Out," but change Mama to Daddy.
