It's so funny that you dropped this today, my partner and I literally rewatched this movie just last night! First time since we saw it in the cinema when it opened. Guess I'm watching again now, cause I'm dying to hear your thoughts!

MikeTW

Okay, gonna be posting more comments while I'm watching, as I watched the behind the scenes last night. The Munchkinland set was, I seem to recall, outdoors, yes. They planted millions of tulips for it. Oh, and I'm pretty sure they CGId the baby. They gave Cynthia Erivo the option of being painted green or having the green added in post and she chose paint.

Ayyye maplewood mentioned!! I grew up there!

As someone who was bullied all the way through school for being different, Elphaba always resonated with me. You do get to a point where you either have to conform or embrace how different you are, or you just don't make it. Taking ownership of my weirdness changed my life. I feel like that's what Elphaba is doing in the Ozdust scene. But it's a lonely business if no one is willing to be weird with you. It can make or break a person.

The Ozdust was a completely practical set, btw. The only thing they edited in was the fish in the ceiling. They had a glass container of water up there with light refracting through it. Most of the sets are primarily practical in order to keep the theatre feel and give the actors an authentic backdrop to act against. Almost everything you see in most of the scenes in this movie was actually there, with the exception of a few backgrounds and also some of the bigger shots like where you see Emerald City from the outside and things like that.

One final comment to sum up some of the thoughts I didn't post while watching. I love Michelle Yeoh in absolutely everything and she made such a great Madam Morrible. I love that she got to sing with her own voice even though she's not a musical artist and they did so little to change any of the vocals in post. If there is pitch correction, it's used so subtly you really can't tell. People need to hear real voices right now, in pop music everyone is being made to sound perfect these days so it matters a lot that they let people sound authentic in this movie. It also takes away from the performances so much when you use pop production in musical theatre. When you pitch correct the hell out of people, you lose depth, you lose the overtones, which means you lose dynamics and nuance. (I may one day end my crusade against overzealous pitch correction but today is not that day lol) Dr. Dillamond is played by Peter Dinklage of Game of Thrones fame. He is also not a singer and did all his work in the sound booth separate from everyone else as a voice actor, but I think he sounds so good. I love that everyone else sang live on set. You're right that you can tell the difference, not just from the fact that they're clearly not lipsynching, but also from the acoustics changing from one part of the set to another in ways that are really hard to fake. Most sound designers wouldn't want to fake it either because in some instances it's actually sort of jarring, like in Loathing when you can hear how different the acoustics are in Glinda's bed and Elphaba's due to the shape of the room. I like it, though, because again, it's authentic. I think that's all the thoughts I have for this half of the movie. Looking forward to your reaction to the rest!

I love this musical and the movie! I thought it was so cool how they built all the sets, sang live and all their work showed in how amazing the movie looked and sounded. I can’t wait for part 2! I enjoyed this rewatch with you in prep for part 2!

Watching the film and listening to the songs in the film vs soundtrack does show there is a clear difference in the mastering. Its not huge but the music sounds much better in the film to me as the post processing is way harder to notice. Some of that might be because of the background sounds of the cast and set being left in within the film, or the soundtrack adds more processing to clear out sound if its not a new recording. . Still, I think the soundtrack does not showcase the singing as well as the film does. Its a good showcase of how important mastering/mixing is.

I remember watching this on the plane and I didn’t particularly enjoy it. The music is amazing obviously but I felt the pacing didn’t fit well in film format. Watching it again here it’s not as bad as I remember it being. I think I just had too many people around me hyping it up as the greatest movie ever

Avi Freedman

Yeah wait that’s actually so funny I looked up where you’re located and I grew up only FIVE minutes away

Part 2 please!?

Pearl

Can't relate lmao I watched it for the first time on the plane as well and ended up bawling my eyes ooooout

Actually Peter Dinklage did the movie musical Cyrano a couple of years back

The font that they use for the opening is the same one from Wizard of Oz

Just because I know way too much about animals, even though it's a pretty microscopic point in the movie... goats (and other cloven-hooved animals such as cows and deer) do not actually have upper front teeth (incisors), but instead have a "dental pad" that is made of tough, fleshy tissue which basically acts as a cutting board for their lower teeth to grind food against. Again, really random point to comment on, but just for information sake XD

Its nice to finally see Wicked on the big screen. I got interested when Stell of SB19 sang Wicked’s Defying Gravity at a David Foster and Friends concert.
