What to do with Bin Laden?
http://www.halfbake...th_20Bin_20Laden_3f An earlier attempt at a halfbaker-composed musical with songs by lewisgirl, Guy Fox, Unabubba (obviously), beauxeault, 1percent, Mephista, lsenater, DrBob, and myself. [pottedstu, Jul 04 2002, last modified Oct 05 2004]

tw - give us a vague plot outline and is it going to be a stage or film musical, and who on earth would back it? (and shouldn't the idea be in HB:alternative forms?) |
|
|
The plot concerns the attempts of a brilliant young computer scientist to construct a forum for intellectual debate, whilst being attacked on all sides by trolls, hackers, server failures and custard-based projectiles. |
|
|
Every good musical must have the following elements, however I leave it up to the rest of you how to fit them in: Nazis, the afterlife, matchmaking, transsexuals, gangsters, lord high executioners and nannies. Oh, and at least one list song. |
|
|
Those who think this would be a good idea might like to read "What to do with Bin Laden?", our noble re-write of the Sound of Music and assorted other songs. One hesitates to say "Baked", but certainly there are lyrics by UnaBubba. (*sigh* whatever happened to lewisgirl? we had fun when she was around.) |
|
|
She's off somewhere buying shoes. |
|
|
'stu: It would be quite easy to get the Nazi's into it. The name 'Jutta' is the German pet name for 'Judith', and 'Judith' means 'Woman From Judea', in other words, a Jew. Its so simple, why didn't you think of it first? |
|
|
Matchmaking is simple. po is //TOTALLY SMITTEN WITH A FELLOW HALFBAKER// |
|
|
The afterlife could be a dream sequence of the perfect Half-Bakery. |
|
|
The gangster could be trolls and what not. |
|
|
The lord high executioner is PeterSealy. |
|
|
nannies, i'm having trouble with. Can't you just cut them? |
|
|
Realy, i thought it was your nose? |
|
|
nannies may be hard to find, but we certainly have enough ninnies... (groan) |
|
|
I'm extremely relieved to see that nobody has
suggested modifying the titles of well-known
Broadway songs and musicals along Halfbakery lines. |
|
|
Besides, you'd just end up with a lot of dreadful puns, like HBesque Pinafore ... |
|
|
I still think this would have been a great idea. |
