You may remember my post last year about the 13 Movies I Want to See in 2013. Topping that list was Oz The Great and Powerful and now the time is almost here… Squeee!
You can catch the trailer at the link in the first paragraph, and watch this here:
Description: Disney’s fantastical adventure “Oz The Great and Powerful,” directed by Sam Raimi, imagines the origins of L. Frank Baum’s beloved wizard character. When Oscar Diggs (James Franco), a small-time circus magician with dubious ethics, is hurled away from dusty Kansas to the vibrant Land of Oz, he thinks he’s hit the jackpot—fame and fortune are his for the taking—that is until he meets three witches, Theodora (Mila Kunis), Evanora (Rachel Weisz) and Glinda (Michelle Williams), who are not convinced he is the great wizard everyone’s been expecting. Reluctantly drawn into the epic problems facing the Land of Oz and its inhabitants, Oscar must find out who is good and who is evil before it is too late. Putting his magical arts to use through illusion, ingenuity—and even a bit of wizardry—Oscar transforms himself not only into the great wizard but into a better man as well.
I love movies like this; full of adventure and imagination. I can’t wait to see it.
How about you?
I would also like to see this! I’m fascinated by Michelle Williams as Glinda – I can’t wait to see how she portrays such an iconic character.

Me too Carla. Have you had the chance to see it yet? My schedule this month is so busy, I hope I can fit it in.
