Has potential.

Looks fun. I'd download it.

I'll wait until it's out on a porn parody.

Jamdug!: Looks terribly better than Alice in Wonderland

/faint praise, I know

Jamdug!: Looks terrible.

browntimmy: Has potential.

Pretty much sums up how the threads for this movie will go from here on out.

is he in it?

who does Bruce Campbell play?

E_Henry_Thripshaws_Disease: who does Bruce Campbell play?

I'm fairly certain that was his hand at the end. What we didn't see was the chainsaw.

Why do so many movies say that they are "From the producer/writer/whatever of Alice in Wonderland."

I'm pretty sure the universal consensus was that that movie sucked balls.

Jamdug!: Looks terrible.

Watever.

FLYING MONKEYS!!!

YAY! CGI! MOAR! MOAR CGI! MORE ACTION SEQUENCES! MORE CGI ACTION SEQUENCES! YAY!

Bruce Campbell is credited on the Wikipedia page... but no role named.

I know, Wikipedia, notoriously unreliable about this stuff. :/

/boomstick

Disney? It's gonna be 30-40 mins. too long.

/always the case

This threat is worthless w/o




The books are darker than the '39 movie and I expect this new movie will end up being darker as well causing people to think it's a bad movie because they only know the Judy Garland fluff.

The witch is green. We could use a can of paint and a decent actress or fake looking CGI which we will also use to throw objects at the screen in a desperate attempt to make 3D seem worthwhile. Hmmm, difficult problem

Whoohoo looks awesome!

I wonder how many people are aware that "Oz, The Great an Powerful" is a prequel to "The Wizard of Oz".

And I agree completely. The books are much darker.

The Wizard of Oz, the original book, is not that dark. Though it does use its setting as a cover for some rather adult themes.

Teufelaffe:
Until she died, I always thought Brittany Murphy would have made a good live action Harley Quinn.

I agree. Now she'd make a GREAT live action Harley Quinn.

I think it looks fantastic so long as those aren't the only exciting scenes in the entire movie.

TwistedFark: E_Henry_Thripshaws_Disease: who does Bruce Campbell play?

Bruce Campbell is credited on the Wikipedia page... but no role named.

I know, Wikipedia, notoriously unreliable about this stuff. :/

IMDB doesn't have him listed at all. However, a search for "Bruce" turns up this:

Mike Estes .... assistant: Bruce Campbell

Why would his assistant be on the movie's crew if he's not involved?

This week marked my third attempt to suffer through season 6. First time I barely got two episodes in. Second time I skipped through the first 4 episodes then watched the last episode. This time around I watched the first two, and then skipped to the middle of the season. It's JUST SO BAD.

At Comic Con he said he be playing a part in the movie, but he has no idea what he is going to play yet. I am thinking Sam is going to give him either a small part or something huge, and wants to surprise everyone on what Bruce is goig to play. Also, Bruce Campbell is a pretty damn good actor, and sometimes I wished he did more roles to show off how good he is at acting like he did in Bubba Ho-tep. Bruce Campbell winning an Oscar would be truly epic.

Jocundry: A little off topic but does anyone remember the Emerald City in the book The Wizard of Oz? It's been ages since I read it but I remember that the city wasn't made of emeralds but that everyone wore green goggles that made the city look green.

Is that true? Or am I misremembering?

True.

My two favorite Oz books:

A Barnstormer in Oz Link

Weird Heroes, Volume 5: Doc Phoenix: The Oz Encounter Link (The 'first' Oz cyberpunk novel)

I hope J. Jonah Jameson reprises his role as Schillenger.

Bathia_Mapes: JasonOfOrillia: Rachel Weisz

Yes, she's in the movie, as is Mila Kunis.

Bruce Campbell is in the movie too, but since there's no character listing for him, it might be a cameo role for him as it was in "Darkman".

Ted Raimi is in the movie as well, but that shouldn't be a surprise to any Sam Raimi movie fan.

Supposedly the car makes an appearance as well.

Oh look, another origin movie.

StoPPeRmobile: Oh look, another origin movie.

Sersleh. I love being reminded of America's great classics (Batman, the Avengers, Wizard of Oz) as much as the next guy. But I would really, truly, love to watch a big budget Hollywood movie that is actually original.

But I guess even Die Hard was based on Nothing Lasts Forever.

there is nothing new under the sun.

FLYING MONKEYS!!!

Stever Rogers: "I got that!"

(views trailer on my iPhone) Not bad.. I think I saw a girl made out of china.. there was a small land full of them in the original novel. I haven't read it in decades.

At what point in the movie does Oz tell Dorothy, "Give me some sugar baby !!!!"

"hail to the king baby!!!!"

Everyone i went to go see Spiderman 2 with was horrified at the Doc Oc surgery scene, but i was expecting it upon the set up. If he taps into my childhood fear of those monkeys then this may be the scare of my life.

OMG FLYING MONKEYS! I'm so there.

BTW if you all think the Tim Burton's version of "Alice in Wonderland" was crap. You all should see SyFy's version "Alice". It went to full retard. X(

It's been a long time since I read it, like I said, but I though the Witch of the West had a magic hat, or something like that, that let her summon the winged monkeys only 3 times, and she used her 3rd and last wish to capture Dorothy and her friends, after her regular forces kept losing to them.

So they were not her permanent servants.
