 | Moulin Rouge! (Widescreen Edition)
Buy new: $8.49 / Used from: $2.10 Okay, not "original" songs, but this movie is widely recognized as a very original take on an old movie and old songs. It's unique and really sad at the end.

 | Grease (Rockin' Rydell Edition)
Buy new: $13.49 / Used from: $5.00 Easily my favorite on this list. This does the musical like no other film has, and the characters are so all like people you know, it just makes you wish this was your high school.
|
 | Hairspray (Full-Screen Edition)
Buy new: $9.99 / Used from: $0.85 WAYYYY better than the original movie, and way less creepy than the stage version, with John Travolta as a toned down man-mom. This was really done well.
|
 | High School Musical (Encore Edition)
Buy new: $14.99 / Used from: $4.01 Though I hate the next two High School Musicals, this original one is so good! Many may disagree, but this is the most heartfelt, sweet movie to come from the Disney channel, and the songs/dances are good.
|
 | The Phantom of the Opera (Full Screen Edition)
