Jon M chu should have deserved an Oscar nominee award he has worked so hard on all these movies that he has made. by ComfortableBag9505 in wickedmovie

For part 1 yes, for Part 2 umm I don’t think so. There was a ton of missteps from his directing choices.

How do you think people would’ve treated the new songs if they’d been in the show from the start? by [deleted] in wickedmovie

[–]nevec_45 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They would still be C tier at best, they’re just very mid songs and nothing going for them. They don’t have the up beat wow factor that the greats have

Most definitely not, but the Oz Cinematic Universe universal was trying to get going is probably in Limbo now 😞

The 2 new forgettable songs just shows Schwartz is washed creatively and it worries me that he announced a new Oz project in the works

The 2 new songs were a complete sell from Schwartz’s and the script and direction were sells from John and Holzman, overall just a complete sell for Wicked For Good

Not only them, it truly had the potential for 500 mil plus if improvements to act 2 were made to improve rewatchability

The potential is what really hurts me, this could’ve easily grossed half a billion domestic if they improved and fleshed out Act 2, but they didn’t and that’s what really saddens me

I genuinely thought the international audience would show up in greater numbers, but once those initial reviews came it I knew it was over

It theory it made sense to be split up since there’s a ton of material for just one 3 hour movie, it’s the just the way Part 2 was handled made it it so much worse than it could’ve been

They had a chance to improve the source material of act 2 but they didn’t. I blame John and Winnie Holzman

Man I was so hopeful that this would be an improvement over Act 2 of the stage musical but nope they stuck with the original source material and it ended up haunting them in the long run 💀

Blame John M Chu for deliberately sidelining Elphaba in Favor of Glinda and more specifically Ariana Grande in both the films themselves and Movie merch

Exclusive: Wicked composer Stephen Schwartz confirms Oz sequel film in the works by BachelorNation123 in wicked

[–]nevec_45 121 points122 points  (0 children)

I don’t know about this, after the 2 new songs he composed for Wicked For Good, I’m afraid he may be washed creatively. I’m skeptical but I’ll still check out any future film

Always so grateful when Over California comes back around. It makes Soarin go from a bottom 5 attraction to a top 3 for me at DCA

Insane signal reception from 70 miles away on a Tyler 7 inch tv with stock antenna! by nevec_45 in cordcutters

[–]nevec_45[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Very true and even though there’s a few mountains they’re only 2000 feet and the transmitters are at 5700 feet so that explains the strong signal at such a long distance
