I love quoting myself from 6 years ago. Yes younger Me, a Wicked movie SHOULD be alright. And yes they should have left it alone because Oz was a terrible movie. Keep up the good posting.
Come to think of it, part of me would love to see what Tim Burton would do with a stop-motion version of "Oz" - I think the book's got just enough darkness and above-all weirdness in it for the likes of him to play with it a little bit more - despite the grave risk of it being an eyes-getting-clawed-out disaster shunned by paying customers in droves.
i am unsure if i would want it to be tim burton. it really depends on the styling he uses. I'd really love to see it be done by jim henson, in the styling of the marvel OZ comics. or perhaps, even making them look like they did in the original illustrations. I like the way everything looks in the original illustrations WAY more than anything in the musical. i want something to replace the musical. as people seem to think it is the only wizard of oz movie. and it isn't even a good adaption of it. it was not even the first wizard of oz film. there were like 20 adaptions before that. including some directed by the author himself. but it needs to be good. it needs to not be wicked. i'm also sick of wicked.
