This idea is ripe. There are a ton of writers on this site (myself included). Maybe we can post ideas and one of us can crank out a screenplay in a couple days: I know a good screenplay agent (sort of). I kicked this idea around back in April, and came up short. Or we could do a round robin, where one person creates a scene, and another adds to it.
I think the only idea I came up with about this was about a 50's style tiki lounge on a tropical isle, with your prototype lounge crooners (one german, one latino, one french, etc: savvy?) who anger the gods with their merriment and building the lounge on kapu grounds, and one night the crooners and a full house of audience are cursed to be birds and flowers forever, singing the same couple songs over and over. In present time, this place is discovered by some innocent [insert your favorite characters here] who want to undo the curse through a series of [insert your wacky disney adventure/conflicts here]. However, enter the bad guys, these [insert your jimmy buffet and/or corporate prototypes here] who want to open the place up as a chain restaurant wannabe tiki place for tourists, keeping the poor crooners enslaved forever (think Rainforest Cafe meets.... no, it's bad enough on its own).
Anyway, that's my thoughts...
