WICKED reminds me of an early MCU movie. It's basically a superhero origin story that spends most of the time setting up action in future installments. It is also very much one-half of one movie, a trend that is starting to drive me insane. www.thebulwark.com/p/wicked-par... - ThreadSky

Sonny’s just mad at the movie because people in his audience started singing along to every song .

Yep. It's not for me.

Mr. Fancy Critic thinks he's entitled to a full movie. You'll take your franchise bait and be happy!

Just wait until it wins Best Picture…then you’ll really lose it.

Oh I think it’ll be this or CONCLAVE.

jakevk.bsky.social•113 days ago

Oh, good call. It’s a coin flip to which I’d bet on to win.

Wow. A movie titled Part 1 really is only one-half of the story? What a surprise!

Hi Dave, thanks for chiming in, quick question: could you point me to a poster or a trailer released by the studio in this country that refers to this as "Wicked: Part One"?

Your review reminds me why I loved the book and disliked the musical. I’ll see this because the cast are amazing actors but that’s the only reason.

I once took my mom to see the touring version of the musical. When “Defying Gravity” finished and we got up for intermission, she thought she’d seen the whole show.

I debated getting in the car and letting her keep that wonderful thought intact.

That’s hilarious! My brother and his wife did the same thing. They got as far as the sidewalk before they realized they were the only ones leaving. I’m amazed they weren’t the only ones.

“For Good” is my favorite song in the show. I just resent sitting through 45 minutes of meandering nothingness to get to it.
