I was so blown away by this movie. I cannot wait for part 2 and I cannot wait to buy the inevitable full behind the scenes and extended scenes one day!!!!
The way those guys worked hard to make this amazing movie, I am so grateful. Haven’t seen a good movie for years. The cast was so dedicated and hard working, I don’t think any other actors would have delivered like they did. Good casting!!
It's gonna clean up every category... best hair and make up, best song, best art direction, best actress, best actress in a supporting role best director, best costume...
Wait a minute. One second…. They were doing stunts and singing at the same time…..in real time??? How??? Wow, that just shot this movie up to a higher level than what it was before. 10/10
I am a good singer so when they had beautiful voices my mom said that is how I want you to sing. I am a theater kid I especially love Mtc but anyways their voice is so good the actors for the characters Glinda and Elfaba tell them I love them
As a theatre kid I’m a harsh critic and I had strong reservations about Wicked being made into a movie for obvious reasons (How would they do defying gravity) but I was very happily surprised and blown away how the movie actually surpasses the stage show in a lot of ways
FINALLY, A GREAT FILM!!!, So much respect for keeping the set real! Ariana was AMAZING and Cynthia was so great! They had perfect chemistry. Beautiful film!
I thibk after filming and production it's a 300 million budget already made the production money Back. In the first weekend . It will make well over 1 billion
Shows the value of hiring singers who can act over actors who can sing for these kind of demanding voice roles. A lesson they did NOT learn on Les Miserables. Everything was sung live in that production too and it was a disaster. Even the great voices of Huge Jackman and Anne Hathaway sounded mediocre and anyone worse than them sounded terrible. Jackman has the bare minimum professional singing experience for that kind of role, having been in a few Broadway musicals for limited runs.
@@Sam_on_UA-cam 100% Professional singers have to be casted for musical genre films. Ie. Wizard of Oz had to be done by Judy Garland, regardless of producers back then thought Shirley Temple was a sure win for box office. I said exactly the same thing after watching Wicked... Les Mis was a disaster lol La La Land was quite poor imo since both actors can't sing esp they did so many scenes that reference classics like Singing in the Rain. Every singing scene at Les Mis and La La Land was a melt down of what pros can do.
@maniaweng I don't think casting actors who can sing instead of singers who can act works in the right circumstances. But the singing can't be too challenging and you can't mix and match. Joaquin Phoenix sang just fine as Johnny Cash opposite Reese Witherspoon, but from what I heard, singing opposite Lady Gaga in Joker... not so much.
The green makeup looked so natural I thought they might have tinted her skin in post production to maintain her natural tone variations and lifelike qualities. Body paint like that can look very different from skin if not done well enough.
@samt7341 I don't understand your comment. Can you clarify? My point was that her skin looked very natural despite being green, which means the makeup was done very well and didn't hide the details of her features. That can be done digitally, but they didn't.
They harvested the bulbs and the farmer will replant them! check out the breakdown from architecture digest with the production designer (he did interstellar too where they planted corn)

I’m normally not a proponent of making movies with intention to sell from it, but dear god I’d be so happy to buy some of those emerald city set dressings (stickers, tchotchkes, balloons etc)
Sets are all gone now. I live there in Tring UK. We had picnics and drinks (great summer) on a very high hill overlooking the huge set while it was being filmed in the evening. They had a big playback sound system and a shit tonne of lights. Quite magical. Weirdest thing was Deadpool and Wolverine was also being film down the road in the local disused quarry.
When you say that Ariana improved with no script, that's a generalization, cause it's only some parts. She absolutely had a script, and they would do takes with her sticking to the lines written, then they did separate takes where they let the girls play, improvise, etc. They often used the takes that had improvisation in them because they're incredible actors with great comedic timing.
My best friend says Ariana could have made a better Elphaba. I disagreed with her because Elphaba has this chesty, mezzo soprano voice while Glinda needs a soft, airy soprano voice, and although I love Ariana I don’t think she could hit that Defying Gravity riff as effortless as Cynthia did. So I told my best friend they are both made for their roles, and that is why they got them 💝
Oh my goodness, they built all of Wicked, not CGI, I love that they sang live, that Cynthia performed her own stunts. The Wizard Of Oz has always been my favorite movie & I’m a 69 year old woman, Wicked just joined as my favorite musical too, I can’t wait for Wicked 2!, I smell Oscars!!🩷💚🩷💚🩷💚🩷💚🩷💚
Renee Rapp auditioning for Glinda... I dunno, on the one hand I love her and I'd love to see it, but on the other hand, Renee plays a more outspoken bad blonde. I'm not sure she'd get the air-headedness and just sheer yet oblivious arrogance of Glinda. In fact I almost think she'd make a better Elphaba because her personality is far more outspoken and anti-establishment
They need to take all the plans for these sets and then build these sets out of permanent materials as an amusement park in uk. People would pay good money to go walk on these sets like people do in the wizarding world in Universal and studio tour in uk.
This movie was incredible. And very moving. But I must say, when I’m watching the movie and I’m thinking this is CGI, when it’s not. Then why not just use CGI? The realism of CGI it’s so good, that even when it’s not CGI, it’s very easy to assume it is because of the scale of it. That being said, the ends were met, regardless of the means. Fingers crossed there will be an amusement park that I can take my daughter to.
One of the best show to film translations ever.
what about CATS!?
Yes 💯❤🤩😍🙌🏻❤️
If only the translation of this video could compare.
Period.

Whoever's idea it was to have Ariana backstroke on the floor during Popular, they're a genius 😂
Yeah so funny
YES
@@CharleneOcampo13 omg I loved it ❤️🤣
Fr lmfao 🤣
One of my favorite parts LOL
I honestly hope they keep the set to allow future visitors! Perfect opportunity for fans
Exactly what I was thinking!!! Like make it its own “theater park” for us nerds
Build a museum or theme park…. If they win or get any Oscar nominations, people will want to see these…. Do a pop up traveling tour…
Yes ❤
Good idea, definitely want the sets to be repurposed.
Maybe we’ll just have to break in?

I’m not a musical or a big movie guy but man this movie was fun and engaging loved it!
I saw this movie yesterday in 3D. Beautiful,beautiful,beautiful!!!
Really? I watched the movie on Saturday without 3d, but it’s just so nice
Wow was it good in 3D? Would you recommend to watch it in 3D😍
The movie and cast deserves one or more Academy Awards!!
FINALLY, A GREAT FILM!!!, So much respect for keeping the set real! Ariana was AMAZING and Cynthia was so great! They had perfect chemistry. Beautiful film!
oh NOW I get why this movie has taken years to come out
Its good they are making alot of money, bc this looks like it took a shit ton to make. They should have fan tours, like its an amusement park lol.
I thibk after filming and production it's a 300 million budget already made the production money Back. In the first weekend . It will make well over 1 billion
They’re going to add a Wicked section at Universal Studios theme park, for sure.
It was INCREDIBLE! I, too, saw the original cast on BWY and this lived up to all expectations!
4:46 not many, ALL of the songs we live, and were AMAZING 🩷💚

What are you talking about that? Is their real color green. All snakes are green. At least most of them or some of at least they are

That was a right interesting video, I didn't know all of Elphie`s stunts were performed by the actress. She`s a tough woman and she`s British 🤣
One of THE best movies I've seen in years!
Both hopefully get Oscars, stunning peace of art ❤❤❤
This compared to what happened on set during the The Wizard of OZ is incredible. Let us be glad 🥰
Excellent!🤩 Im going to the cinema tomorrow with a friend to see this movie. 🎬🎥
Lovely!🥰 Let us know how it was 💖
@@boppingyt It was gooooood!!!! Good singing and performance. Excellent CGI and funny as well!! Cant wait until part 2!!!!
Wonderful!!💕 neither can we✨
Doing physical sets like the LOTR movies was a great choice I hope it becomes a lasting trend
Omg it’s beautiful ❤❤❤!!!xx
2:47 you put them there 😂
This was outstanding and thrilling, thank you! I am so happy for their huge success!! 🙌
I’m obsessed with the wigs. 😍
Lovvveee the director for this!!!
I am glad that most movie directors for these new nd upcoming movies actually put in the effort to create real live scenery than the green screens.
Saw it yesterday, this movie is Oscar gold from start to finish 💚💗

Jon Chu being like "imma do it whether you like it or not and it will be amazing"
GREAT CAST

i love how you call her glinda instead of galinda!! haha
so interesting! thank you
Glad you enjoyed it💖
I love this movie and because of all of this and more
Amazing
They need to do a documentary of how they made the movie
Actually insane
If they don't take these sets and put them at universal studios or something, I'll be very disappointed.
Who played the kids for the backstory in the beginning of the movie?
Three million tulips, wow!
Update: 9 millions actually😱
The best movie
This would make a really amazing amusement park
The sets should be added to universal studios and a bunch of rides added
Fun to see a return to when Hollywood just left newly created towns around the world.
I loved it, dunno why people hatin online…
Ok, ok, hear me out, Wicked Theme Park
It’s planned for Universal Studios, they mentioned it in one interview
@ thank goodness 😂see what I did there?
Pls make this happen someone!!
I think we need a “Wicked World” to visit
YES

@@officialmichaelcarrascoI think they mean the broadway musical
@@SiimplyMilo That so silly....two completely different mediums and the film couldn't exist without the Broadway musical. Glad we have both. 🥰

after the movie were made did they destroy the city
They probably were kept for the next Part’s.
I wish I could see it. But I am in a nursing home and disabled.
💐🥰
Can someone take you?
@lolo77222 I don't think so. Thank you for caring.
❤ Once it's on a streaming platform, I bet it'd be a fun movie to put on for the whole nursing home.
Dana, I am sure it will be available to stream around Christmas. You should ask if your nursing home can arrange a screening for the residents.

They should’ve built it as a land at universal. That way it wouldn’t have gone to waste
