How is Wicked Connected to the Wizard of Oz?

Wicked Act I have the origins of Oz as Act II does some parallels to the Wizard Of Oz.

how about Oz the Great and Wonderful

thank you for connecting the two!! i've seen wizard of oz but not in a very long time and couldn't seem to find anywhere to watch, so this was very helpful!! thanks for your time. ❤

How about the Oz the great and powerful movie 2013

The video is so confusing! Why would you start with two timelines!

What about return to Oz?

Wizard and Glinda are the real wicked

Wicked es el inicio de las brujas de jovenes.. luego el mago de oz ... Y luego unos años despues oz el poderoso con una glenda ya adulta, ya esta el camino amarillo y por eso ya no hay bruja malvada y porque a la glenda adulta no le sorprenda que el nuevo oz pueda crear artefactos porque ya conocio al abtiguo oz que hacia lo mismo....
Puta todo tiene sentido 😮😮😮😮😮😮

James franco left the room

Glad you brought up Return to Oz. I love that film!

1:98 wait i thought the munchkins were celebrating the death of the wicked witch of the east who got the house dropped on her… not the death of the wicked witch of the west yet

"Two great movies" one was a technical marvel from the 30's which continues to be impressive. The other came out a recently and is people in front of a green screen

I watched wicked and I like the wicked witch the most

Random but I finally get “Emerald City” reference at the end of the movie Enough 😩😂😂😂

What about James Franco's Oz?

This now makes wicked make total sense thank u! .

When I first saw wicked the title and nothing else related to the film or musical I initially thought it was something for do with the Maleficient from sleeping beauty eg another version of Angelina Joliet’s film 😂❤then I saw more clips and connected the dots lol

Its not connected, it's not the same writer. Another writer wrote a book with the movie wizard of Oz as a springboard foe his ideas

It’s related thru a bunch of lgbtq relationships Disney created 😂

It doesn’t connect cause it’s not cannon

I just hate how no one will ever know the truth as to why Elphie actually did what she did and became “evil”. Like, I know it’s a film, but still

In the Wizard of Oz, the Wicked witch of the west doesn't actually melts. She went through a trap door escaping with Fiyedro never coming back to the Wizard of Oz ever again.

They’re not connected. Wicked is fan fiction of a series of novels in the 1800’s. It’s adjacent to Wizard of Oz and has some characters but it’s not “canon”

I'm sorry, but weren't the events all a dream for Dorothy in the Wizard of Oz?

Not interested in arianna grande at all. She just comes across as a crappy human all the time

My question is, does the animal problem get resolved ? I feel like it just gets drop and forgotten.

But I thought that the wicked witch of the west was ugly because she was evil. Does that not happen in the movie or has it just not happened yet??

HBD IN HEAVEN 🎂🎈❤️ THE GREATEST WITCH EVER

*⚠️WARNING⚠️* TO THOSE WHO HAVE ONLY SEEN THE MOVIE:

DO NOT WATCH THIS IF YOU DON’T WANT THE REST OF THE STORY TO BE SPOILED.

Even though this person is using clips from the *movie*, the information provided about Wicked in this video reveals things from the whole story of the Broadway musical.

The movie is only ACT I of the musical, so there is a lot that has not been revealed yet and won’t be until part II releases next year.

My fave adaptation is "Tin Man" (2007 on SyFy channel)!! It's a contemporary retelling of "TWOZ". "Wicked" was good, both the recent flick and Broadway play. ❤

What about "Oz The Great and Powerful" and "The Wiz"?

So what about the movie with James Franco in it?

There is also oz the great and powerful that came out a while back.
And return to oz that came out the 80s or 90s.

I saw it for a second time last night, and I thought I recognized the wizard voice , (which they conceal his face), when her mother cheats on her husband. Sounded like Jeff Goldblum !! And you just confirmed that for me!

i never knew any of this wow

I love this now I hope they remake the wizard of oz so we can see the 3rd POV 😩 it would be amazing

what about the Wiz?

Can you read and juggle at the same time?

The wizard of oz was written be a teacher at West Point who told his students accross the Hudson in a big house lived a witch who came for lazy cadets. The final scene with flying monkeys had done wearing similar pants with the long grey lines like West Point cadets. I think one of the scenes was taken at the hotel Thayer West Point.

bro what am i the only one whos video is just an ad for food

Guys i have a theory wicked then wizard of oz then the harry potter comes into place as time goes on

the music must be really good, because the story sounds pretty bad

I have seen the broad way version of wicked in New York City. Something I don’t get is that Dorthy thought it was a dream at the end of wizard of ozz

The OZ universe is interesting but with all these stories, it’s hard to figure out what’s canon and what’s not I kind of think it would be a cool idea if Tim Burton directed a Oz movie with a darker creeper theme and atmosphere

So basically this is like disney doing lion king prequel where scar is actually the good character and mufasa is bad which ruins the whole concept or "vibe" of the first film.

Can't wait to watch part2

the reason for the Red Shoes, is because MGM Copyright the Film Until 2025 every Adaption like the Red shoes are Copyrighted wich is why wicked has silver shoes as written in the Books which are not copyrighted Anymore.
