To Boldly Go Where No MiceChatter Has Gone Before!
I saw it Saturday. I didn't think I'd like it (I HATED the new Alice in Wonderland), but now that I've seen what it's like, I can't wait to see it! It will be one of the few movies I'm willing to pay to see in 3-D.
I agree. Tjhe special effect in Alice were pure eye candy. Unfortunately, the story was noticably disjointed in relationship to the story line of LC's book...and the storyline of Walt's original cartoon feature. Even though the characters are satirical, they at least had some depth to them in the book and Walt's carttoon movie. For the lack of this, the Depp feature just fell a might flat.Originally Posted by KellyMcG86
The new Oz, on the other hand, appears to be both satirical and warm from the unset. I can't wait!

I have never seen such hype for a movie that seems like the visuals are the only thing going for it.
The premiere and the trailers are rather offputting. It also doesn't tell you much about the movie. I'm not sure if the actor portraying Oz has much to bring to the role.
That I would have to agree with. They could have picked a number of better actors than James Franco. But that is my opinion.
Yet on the flip side, Rachel Weisz, makes up for alot.
I saw the preview last Friday. It looks like a neat movie, if not a bit overdone.
In the movie trailer in theaters, Disney hasn't shown any scenes where characters interact vocally. The look and potential are tremendous. However, I agree that there is not much info. to be gained about the plot and the personality of the characters. Also, I would rather see the film entirelyu live-action, as oposed to adding overt catoon characters.
Rachel Weise has remained an awesome talent in so many films (my favorite, the Mummy films). In this film, I wish there would be magical musical songs sung by the characters, such as with the iconic Wizard of Oz.
That it does!

Ever hear of Avatar? Wonderland?
The story seems quite simple...it's how the Wizard came to OZ and how he became know as the great and powerful wizard....and I do agree they should had somehow tried to keep Robert Downey but James Franco may be able to pull of the role in his own way

Robert Downy is one of the finest leading man/character actors ever...Iron Man and Sherlock Holms being two of my fave films. That said, I do not want to see him overused in too many movies. James Franco just might pleasantly surprise us.
