Viewer's Digest Condensed Musicals

I am at this moment being subjected to a musical movie playing in the background.
I like movies.
I like music...
...I just don't like it when live actors all start singing and dancing in sync when the only time it ever happens with real life people is in pre-planned flash-mobs. It's too much like a theater production and suspension of disbelief goes right out the window for me.
Generally these movies are of high quality and well written so well worth watching... but so are many novels I will never have the time to read.
Reader's Digest recognized this need and condensed these tomes down to a size which probably enticed many readers to be left wanting more and actually reading at least some of the original novels in their entirety.

I don't think that will work with me and musicals, but... for some folks it might in which case; it wouldn't affect the plot much, it would shrink a feature film down to an hour or so, and movies which wouldn't normally be seen by some would gain a currently nonexistent audience for these films.

P.T. Barnum never sang to the bearded lady! Ugh!

Dammit! Now I can't stop visualizing Wolverine singing about fresh creamery butter in a dance number.

Aaaauuurrrghhhhh...
