*You can also take into account the rest of the films in these two series if you wish (i.e. the Universal film sequels and the Hammer Horror film sequels)

#both young frankensteins arent really parodying/adapting shelley theyre direct riffs off the universal films #but an adaptation of an adaptation still counts here #i didnt push it to include much much looser parodies or spins on it though #like rocky horror or frankenweenie #yf gets in here because its a pretty direct take on the universal films and not a much looser reworking of the concept #frankenstein #mary shelley #mary shelly's frankenstein #frankenstein 1818 #frankenstein book #frankenstein 1931 #frankenstein universal #universal horror #hammer horror #frankenstein 1957 #frankenstein hammer horror #young frankenstein #young frankenstein the musical #james whale #mel brooks #young frankenstein musical #frankenstein 2011 #victor frankenstein #victor frankenstein 2015 #books #films #plays #theater #musicals #musical theater

*Using this label because I don't know that it really has like a proper "series name", but you can take into account both Alice's Adventures in Wonderland and Through the Looking-Glass' content, and not just the first book

#once again there are many many takes on alice in wonderland some very loose and some direct #so I may do I part 2 here as well #but I will probably leave off things that are only like kind of alluding to ideas from wonderland #and not actually at least reworking the characters/plot/setting in *some* slightly direct way #because theres so so so many things that could possibly fit in that category #and they start pushing away from what I would actually call an adaptation #polls #tumblr polls #adaptation polls #wonderland #alice in wonderland #alice's adventures in wonderland #through the looking glass #lewis carroll #alice in wonderland 1951 #disney's alice in wonderland #alice 1988 #wonderland the musical #wonderland musical #alice 2009 #alice syfy #alice in wonderland 2010 #alice through the looking glass #tim burton #films #books #tv shows #musicals #theater #musical theater

#there are quite a few more adaptations I didn't include on this poll #including the 30s (and older?) films #but honestly with this one unless I get a specific request to do so #I probably will not be doing a part 2 poll #because tarzan is uh. not generally my favorite media franchise in the world tbh #(I'm still happy to give it a part 2 if anyone really wants one though) #tarzan #tarzan 1999 #tarzan disney #disney tarzan #tarzan musical #tarzan the musical #tarzan books #tarzan of the apes #greystoke film #greystoke 1984 #greystoke the legend of tarzan lord of the apes #the legend of tarzan #the legend of tarzan 2016 #animation #animated films #films #books #musicals #musical theater #theater #edgar rice burroughs

Could you do another Les Miserables one that includes the 1934 movie (the five-hour one) and possibly various versions of the stage musical (eg Original London Cast (with the full version of Little People and I Saw Him Once/In My Life/A Heart Full of Love) vs French Concept Cast vs the Tenth Anniversary Concert) and the staged Les Mis Dallas?

I probably won't do a poll that has different versions of the stage musical on it, since as far as I know they aren't doing drastic rewrites of each other and are at their core the same material (albeit with some alterations, but all basically in the realm of what is expected for different productions of the same show in theater. But if that's not true and any of them do have dramatically rewritten books from each other feel free to let me know), but Les Mis is one of the works that I do plan on doing a part 2 poll for at some point, and I will make sure to put the 1934 film on that poll when it goes up!

#for example with the stagings #the reason I let the cabaret poll have two different versions of the stage musical #is because the 1998 revival is supposed to be a pretty significant revision of the original stage version #to the point where if you want to license the show for your theater you have to actively choose between the two versions #because they have separate licenses #and for example another show I may in the future do a poll for that's just different stage versions is Chess #because some of the main stagings are radically different from each other with nearly completely rewritten books #so if theres a les mis production that has a rewrite as full as that I could count it as its own thing #but as far as I know there is only one book that all the versions are doing their own staging from #again please let me know if that's wrong and there is a version(s) with a significantly different book #asks

#there was also a play and an earlier 20s film #but I don't think the play has been revived in a major way since the 20s #not do I think the script is available for reading or liscensing #and the 20s film is considered lost #so I don't know that it's fair to include either since people pretty much literally could not be familiar with and vote for either #polls #tumblr polls #adaptation polls #gentlemen prefer blondes #marilyn monroe #movie musicals #musical movies #musicals #musical theater #theater #anita loos #films #books #gentlemen prefer blondes 1925 #gentlemen prefer blondes 1953 #howard hawks #classic cinema #classic hollywood #old hollywood
