Lion King wasn't touted as being a remake of Hamlet. Magnificent Seven was always made clear to a remake (or at least heavily inspired from) Seven Samurai.

James That one is more of a remake though (I think a fairly blatant one, too), so it doesn't count.

Fathom Zero In another comparison of Shakespeare to Disney, Pocahontas is also strikingly similar to Romeo and Juliet.

re

Road Trip = The Odyssey

This is not an endorsement of Road Trip.

The Lord of the Rings is Tolkien one-uping Macbeth (ie. the Witch King's death).

pjalne Haha, the Bug's Life one is gold.

Only thing I can think of is Throne of Blood and Macbeth. But that dawned on me as I was watching it, so it wasn't one of those "oh shit" hindsight things. And it's pretty much a direct adaptation, so I don't know if it counts.
