Yes we gotta watch it in community as well!

Wicked witch looks a little like a relative of Gamora from MCU. 😂

Now that you mentioned it.. I can't unsee it!! :P

I do love Michelle Yeoh though, classy actress 👌 and visually it looks beautiful.

Agreed! Passed the aesthetic vibe check for sure. 😎

My immediate thought is... you need to see the original Wizard of Oz. I'd bet that will alter your impression a bit. My second thought, I haven't seen Wicked the musical either and have been wanting to see it but never got around to it. It was supposed to be very good, as you probably heard. Now that the movie is coming out, I am a little disappointed because I will probably watch that before I see Wicked IRL. All that said, I am curious about what your thoughts will be after watching the movies!

I’ll definitely have to watch the original wizard of Oz! I guess hearing about the bad production behind the scenes always left a bitter taste, but I really should watch it since it’s a classic. I hope you’ll be able to watch Wicked on broadway one day too! Like you said, definitely heard a lot of good things about it. I’m looking forward to hearing the songs in this one though, that’s one thing I’ve already heard (the broadway songs)!

It's unfortunate to hear about behind the scene difficulties and traumas. It was a different time too. I am not privy to all that has been discussed about it, which I imagine you are more versed in than I. Regardless, at minimum, understanding the base story, I'd think, would give you a better appreciation of what might occur in Wicked. I say that with the reasoning that this is where the irony and tragedy come together, which I presume adds to the impact of the overall story. And thank you! as I will make an effort if circumstances present themselves to watch the musical but, alas, some of the magic will be gone by the time that happens.

@@ignitofor sure! I’ll definitely watch the classics as well for better understanding and I’m sure appreciation too. Hopefully it’ll add more to the experience and magic, and not take away when you finally get to see it live!🎉

I don't understand you being confused...why not spend 5 mins to google and find out about the story, and the broadway show? Yes, that's Ariana Grande playing Glinda, and Jeff Goldblum as the Wizard. This is an "origin" story of 'The Wicked Witch of the West" (named Elphaba) and Glinda, "The Good Witch." Characters from the movie "The Wizard of OZ." It is a "prequel" to "The Wizard of Oz", with Dorothy (& Scarcrow,Tinman & Lion) entering late, in the "Wicked" story.

When I said I was confused, I was referring to what I was watching on the trailer! I specifically mentioned in the video that I have never seen, 'The Wizard of Oz' (Scarecrow, Tinman, etc. characters I do know are in it though), nor have I seen, 'The Wicked Witch of the West', or any other adaptations or origin stories. I'd like my first true start, to finish, introduction into this world to be when I watch this movie that'll come out. So for that reason, you can see why I wouldn't search the other movies in advance! I don't know about you, but I prefer to go into movies completely blind so I can really enjoy and be surprised, and have no expectations. In a way that makes it more exciting for me. However, I also did say I'd probably watch the said movies above following my watch of 'Wicked'. So that's why I was confused when watching the trailer, because honestly... I don't know the story and I like that I don't know what's going to happen or what's going on completely, I love that I'm going to be surprised going into it! I hope you enjoy the movie and it's as good or even better than the adaptations or origin stories you've seen of it! Thank you so much for watching/commenting!

@@Awkventurer Just a suggestion, but I think it better to watch "The Wizard of Oz" first, since that is where we first meet Glinda, and the Wicked witch. The story of "Wicked" just builds on these characters, giving them a relationship and a backstory. Also, the very first shot of this trailer ( the witches hat, in a puddle of water) actually foreshadows an event from "The Wizard Of Oz."😊 I saw the Broadway show, when it first opened, in 2003. I've been listening to the music and looking forward to this movie for 20 years, and I'm thrilled the movie looks to be so beautifully done.
