Oz

Oz is the store before the store. How everything bargain this is what is called a prequal and its not really a prequal since actually of wasa book before the Wizard of Oz was done. Me and my husband saw it last week and we loved it and was just as I thought it was going to be.

Did you know that there was a stage musical and a silent film based on Oz? I didn't like the new movie so much, a little too hokey for me, and I really love Oz. I have all of Baum's books, and some of the Oz books written by other people too.

I went to see Oz tonight. I really enjoyed it. I am a massive Oz fan, and when I first heard about the movie I wasn't sure what they were doing and didn't think I'd like it. But, as the movie came closer to completion and we started seeing trailers with more information I started feeling better about it. I have to say, I thought it was REALLY good. There were a couple of things I had issues with, but on the whole, I liked it. I loved the nods in the movie, the Wizard of Oz's direction. For example, how he loved Annie, but wasn't going to stay in Kansas to marry her, letting John Gale who has proposed have her. And implying that Annie and the never seen John, are the parents of Dorothy. Having the same actress play Annie and Glenda. And the "black and white" sequence for the beginning, and a tornado taking him to Oz as well. I was just BLOWN away by the color in the movie. I came home and told the roomie that it was a shame she can't see color because it was just SO beautiful!

I seem to be behind in watching movies but this osunds good and I will look out for it. Glad you told me about the scary bit in Oz as I don't like too much scary

My kids were on spring break last week, but my oldest son was sick all week so he didn't get to do much. He did say that he wanted to watch a movie by this weekend, and he said he wanted to watch Oz. I'm still hesitant about watching it, but if you say kat that it's not bad, then I'll take your word and try to enjoy it!

I saw the movie last night. The movie was okay. I am glad they did not take the Dorothy story and instead made a movie out of the prequel of Dorothy's story. they say the story was based on the books written by the same author. I'm not sure though.

Interesting... I will probably have to rent this one once it is out ... I have seen the previews for it, and seen the reviews and such. Quite interesting the way they have been remaking some of the classics lately and turning them into something else.

I was wondering how the movie would be. I like that it tells the story of the wizard. I'm glad they didn't offend the original story with Dorothy. I doubt I'll get to the theater to see it but I'll probably rent it when it comes out.
