I forgot about the Country Bear Jamboree.
There already is a movie based on "Country Bear Jamboree" (I may be showing may age here). It's called SONG OF THE SOUTH, and Disney pulled it from their line about fifteen years ago after a few decades of being told it was racist to have an inarticulate old black man mumble about how life was better back before the Union freed the slaves. Thing is he never actually *says* that, but the message made it to a lot of people, and now the movie is a collector's item.
Anyway, it's a silly movie, but it's got that Brer Rabbit and the Sly Fox, characters you'll never ever see, and it's the origin of the song "Zippity-Doo-Dah," which is pretty much the theme song of the Disney corporation and used to be the opening theme to "The Wonderful World of Disney."
