I was listening to the song Amos Moses by Jerry Reed, and I was thinking to myself damn if this were a movie I would watch it. So what songs do you think would make a good movie? By the way the lyrics are below
Yeah here comes Amos Now Amos Moses was a Cajun He lived by himself in the swamp He hunted alligator for a living He'd just knock them in the head with a stump The Louisiana law gonna get you Amos It ain't legal hunting alligator down in the swamp boy
Now everyone blamed his old man For making him mean as a snake When Amos Moses was a boy His daddy would use him for alligator bait Tie a rope around his neck and throw him in the swamp Alligator man in the Louisiana bayou About forty-five minutes south of Tippitoe Louisiana Lived a man called Dr. Mills South and his pretty wife Hannah They raised up a son who could eat his weight in groceries Named him after a man of the cloth Called him Amos Moses
Now the folks around south Louisiana Said Amos was a hell of a man He could trap the biggest meanest alligator And he'd just use one hand That's all he got left cause an alligator bit it Left arm gone clear up to the elbow
Well the sheriff caught wind that Amos was up in the swamp Trading alligator skins So he snuck in the swamp gonna get the boy But he never came out Well I wonder where the Louisiana sheriff went to Well you can sure get lost in the Louisiana bayou About forty-five minutes south of Tippitoe Louisiana Lived a cat named Dr. Mills South and his pretty wife Hannah They raised up a son who could eat his weight in groceries Named him after a man of the cloth Called him Amos Moses
I know son Make it count son About forty-five minutes south of Tippitoe Louisiana

I had an idea to turn some late 60's Beach Boys song into a movie. Here's the post I made at a Beach Boys message board: Circus of Fools (December 1969) Here's my most ambitious idea. Hear it out:
After the smash hit success of SMiLE, Brian decides to take about a year long break. Eventually, he is offered to do a movie featuring new and old music by the band. Brian knows the Beatles are doing something similar so he accepts it. The movie is part Yellow Submarine/part Rolling Stones rock and Roll Circus. Brian is the main character as he plays a trippy ringleader who mainifests his acid trips into circus events (not revealed until the end though.)
Circus of Fools soundtrack: Side 1: Wake the World (Opens up the film.) Carnival/Over the Waves Sail Plane Song (Brian sings song on the dock of a beach after one of his shows.) I Just Got Paid (Brian flashing back to his younger days. A medley of Beach Boys' songs plays before this.) Can't Wait Too Long (Sung by Brain yearning for his love, who he left behind to join the circus.) Celebrate the News (This ends the first act.)
Side 2: Tones (Instrumental break that plays through the intermission.) Holidays (With lyrics and band singing the Whispering winds section. Sung while Brian leaves the circus after witnessing the death of a performer.) Wind Chimes (SMiLE arrangement done a little differently.) Little Pad (Concludes the film. Brian wakes up from his trip with a modified version of the ending. It gets all warped and then we hear the woo woo woo from Heroes. Brian jolts out of bad, stares at the camera for about a minute...fin.)
Lot of positive feedback from the people at the board. It's not fully developed but I was pleasd with the way it came out.

Welcome to the Black Parade-My Chemical Romance.... yeah i know get ready for the flame If they did it, but with irony, I think it would be pretty good. Devil Went Down To Georgia could make a movie, but that's probably already been done. Long Black Veil I for one think Bat Out of Hell would make an absolutely excellent, and hilarious movie if done right. Teenage mutant lost boys from the future rioting against Captain Hook and all of the adults? With rock music? Hells yeah!

There was a Filipino movie based on the Kenny Loggins song For The First Time. Meh. Just a typical trashy romance.

I think there have been screenplays based on it, but nothing ever came of them.

Anything and everything by Warren Zevon. To Wit:
"Mr. Bad Example"
I started as an alter boy, working at the church Learning all my holy moves, doing some research Which led me to a cash box, labeled "Children's Fund" I'd leave the change, and tuck the bills inside my cummerbund
I got a part-time job at my father's carpet store Laying tackless stripping, and housewives by the score I loaded up their furniture, and took it to Spokane And auctioned off every last naugahyde divan
I'm very well aquainted with the seven deadly sins I keep a busy schedule trying to fit them in I'm proud to be a glutton, and I don't have time for sloth I'm greedy, and I'm angry, and I don't care who I cross
I'm Mr. Bad Example, intruder in the dirt I like to have a good time, and I don't care who gets hurt I'm Mr. Bad Example, take a look at me I'll live to be a hundred, and go down in infamy
Of course I went to law school and took a law degree And counseled all my clients to plead insanity Then worked in hair replacement, swindling the bald Where very few are chosen, and fewer still are called
Then on to Monte Carlo to play chemin de fer I threw away the fortune I made transplanting hair I put my last few francs down on a prostitute Who took me up to her room to perform the flag salute
Whereupon I stole her passport and her wig And headed for the airport and the midnight flight, you dig? And fourteen hours later I was down in Adelaide Looking through the want ads sipping Fosters in the shade
I opened up an agency somewhere down the line To hire aboriginals to work the opal mines But I attached their wages and took a whopping cut And whisked away their workman's comp and pauperized the lot
I'm Mr. Bad Example, intruder in the dirt I like to have a good time, and I don't care who gets hurt I'm Mr. Bad Example, take a look at me I'll live to be a hundred and go down in infamy
I bought a first class ticket on Malaysian Air And landed in Sri Lanka none the worse for wear I'm thinking of retiring from all my dirty deals I'll see you in the next life, wake me up for meals

Constantinople by The Decemberists
Oh, the minarets of Constantinople Are plated gold, ivory and opal Their cupolas all onion-domed and light
And the magistrate of Constantinople Has made a match; his family was hopeful Their daughter would be promised a wedding night
But the Sultan's weary bride, she won't be wed tonight Nor fall beneath a canopy to lie For far across the town, her lover now is drowned And painted by the Bosporus in blue And there's nothing for a broken heart to do
Down the dirty streets of Constantinople The beggars weep, their hands all wide open Their severed leper limbs all swing and sway
At a windowsill in Constantinople Our hero sighs to melodies noteful And gazes on the walls that hold his love
For the Sultan's weary bride, she won't be wed tonight Nor fall beneath a canopy to lie For far across the town, her lover's lying drowned And painted by the Bosporus in blue And there's nothing for a broken heart to do No, there's nothing for a broked heart to do Except cry
