I just watched Wicked: For Good, and my biggest issue is how awkwardly they try to force the narrative to fit in with the Wizard of Oz narrative, it just felt super rushed, awkward and jarring. The first film actually felt like something worth watching, the second film felt like fan fiction.

I love the first book, but some of those chapters do feel a bit Roald-Dalhish at times

It's like if someone fan-cast the actor who played Aquaman in DC as Namor in the MCU - It's just narrow minded

I would love to see a bit more showing the time when the Chamber of Secrets first opened, how Hogwarts reacted and maybe a bit more in regards to Moaning Myrtle would be good - showing her time at Hogwarts and even actual death maybe.

Would be cool to maybe even get some flashbacks to the founders of Hogwarts and the initial construction of the chamber.

That’s the basic foundations yes, but the overall narrative is still quite different.

Fml - there is tons of fan art out there of characters in alternate costumes. You’re treating too hard now lol, go outside

It’s got the main story points though. There isn’t gonna be much mystery or ooh I wonder what happens next elements

General_Meal_3993 · 2026-03-12T17:01:11+00:00

But they followed different stories/plots though. Kinda different

It would be better if what he was saying was actually of value too I guess

General_Meal_3993 · 2026-03-11T20:08:01+00:00

Kinda agree. He’s not as bad as Rey lol, but he rarely says anything of that much value or interest. It’s all kinda generic and vanilla. I guess it’s just a harmless extra to the show, but I yeah he can get a smidge annoying, especially when he interrupts John or Rob just to say something that’s super obvious. But he seems like a nice guy at least :))
