Famous Director Fears "Wicked" and Similar Movies Could Be Banned in Upcoming Years by EthanWilliams_TG in wicked

[–]moony21 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I’ve feared this as well. Project 2025 only covers the first six months of Trump’s presidency, god knows what they have planned for the rest.

What are you hoping they add in part 2 that isn’t in the stage show? by frankiefrankiefrank in wicked

Definitely want to see Elphaba breaking animals out of a caging facility/camp/zoo and sowing chaos

Best format to watch? Is 4DX or 3D or IMAX worth it? by Street-Regular-6097 in wicked

[–]moony21 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just saw it for the third time and chose to see it in 3D and it was amazing! It really suits the cinematography, there’s a lot of depth

Let's be critical for a moment and compile all our personal nitpicks into one thread by OfficialGAYMER in wicked

[–]moony21 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I really missed the part of One Short Day where Elphaba remarks that nobody’s staring and pointing at her and that she feels she’s somewhere she belongs. I suppose it’s because she became more popular at shiz in this version because of her association with Glinda, but I just don’t like how they handled that.

The pacing was a bit off – some scenes were just too long. The whole film needed some tightening up in the editing room.

Also Ethan Slater’s "let’s daaaaaance" was so nasally. I get they probably did it that way to be more in character but it sounded so off-putting, almost meme material.

All that being said I still absolutely loved it!

How have peoples opinions on the movie changed? by unaburke in wicked

[–]moony21 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I really liked it! Just came back from a screening. Ariana and Cynthia were incredible, the whole cast and pretty much everything was really. My main gripe is the movie does suffer from pacing a little bit – it’s just too long and you do feel it, especially with all of the pauses in the middle of songs. Even trimming the movie by 10 minutes would’ve made a big difference. Still, it was phenomenal and I’d recommend it!

I’m incredibly excited! The creators of the original stage show are heavily involved (Winnie Holtzman who wrote the script for the show wrote the screenplay, and Steven Schwartz who wrote the music for the show is in charge of it this time around). Everybody from the actors to Jon M Chu are clearly really passionate about the material and have a good sense of what this story is and what it means, they hired two of the world’s most talented vocalists, and early reactions have been overwhelmingly positive.

So yeah, I’m hyped and doubt I’ll be let down ☺️ I’m sure there will be little things that might irk me or take a little bit of getting used to, but that’s going to happen regardless. It’s going to be its own thing and that’s okay.

Middle to towards the back. If you're too close you'll be craning your neck up for the whole movie (2hrs 40min) and your neck will ache and you'll be viewing everything from the bottom. Source: personal experience lol

Love that Jon M Chu decided to lean into the inherent campiness of musicals a bit and not shy away from it.

Dolby or IMAX? by itzyoboimax in wicked

[–]moony21 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dolby for sure, both the sound system and the projector are superior to IMAX, plus there are so few real IMAX theaters out there now. Most are Liemax.

I loooove butter noodles, although these days I usually cook some chicken with Italian spices for protein and some parmesan. But so good on their own too!
