I know that 10 Things I Hate About You is an adaption of The Taming Of the Shrew and O is of Othello, but are there others? I thought there were more, but maybe there aren't, because I can't find any more. If you know any others, that would be great!

She is the Man A modernization of "Twelfth Night, or What You Will."
Westside story is R&J
"O" is a modernization of Shakespeare's "Othello"
Now imagine this: a modernized version of Shakespeare's "Macbeth" titled "Scotland, Pa." And it's reset in a small-town burger joint in the 1970s, with married employees Joe and Mac McBeth murdering their employer, taking over the joint, renaming it "McBeth's" and finally being hotly pursued by relentless big-city cop Ernie McDuff.
