I believe they are categorizing Grande’s role as supporting actress, so it’s possible they could both win. I expected Cynthia to be amazing but I was shocked by Grande’s performance.
The Wizard of Oz (1939) is actually a cute movie. Don't let the oldness of the movie fool you. There's a reason it's still a timeless classic. It aged well compared to other movies of its time. I think you'll be pleasantly surprised.
I don't know if you meant it as a question, but they are supposed to be University students, so young adults and not teenagers, basically. The book is quite different from the stage musical and this movie (don't know about the next movie, though). The book is very dark - and very drawn out, with lots of characters and other things that were cut for the musical. They centred the plot and the characters more for the stage show, to make it easier to follow - and more entertaining, in my opinion. Madame Morrible (Michelle Yeoh) is in the book, but she is more obvious as a villain, than in the movie version.
Pretty sure in Wicked, it's more like real world university where most are 18 - 21 with a few enrolling earlier? Pretty sure Elphie was enrolled at 17.
Your commentary on Jeff goldblum was felt cuz he’s always been fine, and throw in the suit and the singing, who wouldn’t file if especially if they were married to a munchkin man 😭😂 kidding but 👀
Friends if Dorothy not OZ cause her friends are like specific species which also gay men like to categorise themselves into specific classes on their physique, men are visual animals it doesn't matter if one is gay they're still men so physical look is important for male on male relationship and prefrence
TL;DR: The book is a great read, but very different than the musical/movie and is really for mature readers. It's more about fascism and racism than friendship and magic and is much more dark than the musical is, with graphic scenes of both murder and sex, including instances of r𝒶pe. But i feel parts of it are quite relevant, given the current political climate [in the U.S.]... When it comes to the new edition of the book with the pretty movie tie-in cover art, i feel obliged to give a warning. The movie is a good watch for most ages, but the book is not suggested for younger readers. "Wicked" by Gregory Maguire (which i read before the musical was created) was the inspiration for the musical, but when they say it's based on it, they mean very loosely. I am a big fan of both, and the movie is a very good adaptation of the musical (even though they left out a few of my favourite lines) and is mostly a good family film (so far). But yeah, the book is vastly different, and i think it's important to understand that the book is very much geared toward mature readers. The main theme of the book is political. It's more about fascism and racism than friendship and magic and is much more dark than the musical is. The relationships in the book are not at all close and warm, as they become in the musical, and are all-in-all more complicated. In addition to these things, there are some quite graphic scenes of both murder and sex, some of which include instances of rape. And, while I don't want to post any spoilers, Elphaba really does have a very difficult life, as in all throughout her life, and not only because of her unique physical appearance. It is in no way a "true love saves the day" kind of ending. And some of the characters who are most loved in the musical are not quite as wonderful in the book (no pun intended). I honestly think most fans of the musical (if they are not readers who like this kind of fiction) might find the book fairly boring in some areas, and possibly offensive in others. I heard someone suggest that if you read the book before knowing the musical, you probably enjoy both (though differently, as they are so different), but when it's the other way around, people tend to love the musical and dislike the book (if they even finish reading it). I do recommend the book to mature readers. Especially right now, as it's pretty relevant to our current political climate [here in the U.S.]. I just think, given the popularity (pun fully intended) of the musical and movie, a context warning needs to be a prerequisite to reading it. If you do like the book, it is the first of a four book series. And more are being written now it seems. Also Gregory Maguire has authored a number of books that are mostly adult versions of other well-known fairy tales. Some are not as "mature" or political as this one. I am a huge fan of fairy tale origins and retellings (like you mentioned, with the Little Mermaid, original versions were more adult than the disneyfied versions most people are familiar with today), so i have read quite a few. Also, if you want to watch the theater show before the second film comes out, there are videos on youtube, and i can offer links (i have a few on my second/unlisted channel, where they are flagged as copyright-protected content, but allowed to be used on yt, and watchable in the US and most other countries). They're not great quality as none are professional recordings, but it's all some of us got unless and until they release pro shot ones. Speaking of pro shot releases, there's an older broadway show called "Into the Woods" (which is another of my favs and also on my unlisted channel) that combines some characters from other original darker versions of a few fairytales. It got a movie version ten years ago, but some of the changes and casting choices were horrible and it was overall a pretty crappy adaptation. I do recommend the pro shot recording of the OBC production though.
nah cause it was all good with elphaba's mom having her own thing going on🤣, just drink that potion and so reckless🙄 and did that not knowing ofc what will happen but just the repercussions .They could of had a better character than fieryo🙄 as a love interest to elphaba theres no chemistry of elphaba and fieryo

I was so confused for i forget about decadents i actually thought she was Dove Cameron's real mom😂
😂😂 that’s so real
Please explain

I have a theory Dove is going to be Dorothy as she’s on the cast list of Wicked 2 but her character is unnamed and Dorothy hasn’t been announced yet
DONT PLAY WITH ME RN

If you look at any of Ariana’s snl skits, you will recognize how much talent she has in acting as well
I also love how you compared the love triangle in this movie to the one in Descendants 😂
LOL I couldn’t unsee it
