Like Lindsay Ellis said, musical movies got better "post Hello Dolly", now I'm glad they're recovering "post cats" hopefully.
Dunno if I'd say that about the Mean Girls musical adaptation, but fingers crossed Wicked knocks it out!
This is from Universal, the same studio as Cats and Dear Evan Hansen, AND what the marketing doesn’t make clear is this movie is ONLY based on the FIRST ACT, NOT the whole play. What a stupid decision.
@@trachie1701Mean Girls was awful, barely even counts as an adaptation of the musical. They cut out most of the songs and just did scenes from the original movie again.
Lindsay Ellis is an illiterate clod.
@@ajzeg01 True but they are cutting zero songs from this and are adding background information from the book. We are getting Act 2 in part two. Act 1 has a "this is over" feel to it if you don't know the rest of the story so maybe they can add an end credit scene to let audiences to look forward to part 2.
The 'ping' replaces Don LaFontaine's "in a world ..."
"This Time, Its For Real".
Lmao!!!
One good thing: I’m happy it’s actually showcasing some of the music in the teaser
The other movies were afraid it being marketed as a musical would turn off audiences, but with this having the Wicked brand name and Ariana Grande's star power I don't think it'll be a problem
I feel like that's such a low bar, but it's also so true...
One of The Color Purple did a similar thing where they use one of the songs, but makes it feel like it may just be a soundtrack type song - with a bit of flair at the end. Those who know the show know it's the musical.
@@synth5091 yeah but the Color Purple trailer did finish with a shot of Celie singing it
I'm sad that the singing was terrible.
Our judge, jury and executioner, for the first time in human form! 🎉
Hi Christi!
I saw some people say that Elphaba's "I am" comment came off too cute, and all I can think is, "Guys, she's being sarcastic!"
Yeah, I thought the "Oh my God, thank you so much for pointing out this VERY obvious thing!" vibe was very clear.
Though@@MusicalHell I am curious on what your thoughts on the relationship between cast members Ariana Grande and Ethan Slater. Since both performers have gotten a lot of backlash from it since both Grande and Slater were married.
Also bonus question: Do you think Ariana Grande would make a good Christine Daae along with Abel "The Weeknd" Testefaye as Eric/The Phantom in a Phantom of the Opera movie musical reboot?
How can anyone hear that line as anything but "Really? I hadn't noticed!"
@@rishisanyal8972 oof, no that casting would be terrible. Mostly because of him. His acting in the Idol was infamous. Why would we even need a new film? Especially if one of the main complaints aboit the 2004 film waa that the phantom's voice wasn't classically trained.
@@MadameCorgi Objection, I would claim that much like Harry Styles in Don’t Worry Darling, The Weeknd’s performance in the idol came down to bad direction, in combination with a poisonous ego.
The Ping seems to have replaced the Trailer voice as the main preview cliche.
It's neat to see you in front of the camera, Christi, you're really pretty. I hope that you do more trailer reactions, and I can't wait to see the channel's content coming forward.
I agree that Glinda’s first outfit in the trailer is too muted compared with the other students’ clothes and her bubbly personality. I would have made it a dark rose pink to show that she is a bit rough around the edges when she’s with Elphaba and the pink gets a bit softer as they slowly become friends but the pink is still vibrant.
Her outfit in the Broadway show during that scene is pure white. She doesn't go pink until the party. The white with her blonde hair does stick out more against the darker school uniforms.
The white definitely pops more, and also conveys undertones of wealth and extravagance, ie. "I'm someone who doesn't have to get my hands or anything else dirty, and I can afford to show that off with my pristine outfit."
@@MusicalHell I do wonder if they'll continue to work with color levels in post - possibly even take what people are saying/commenting from seeing the commercial - like Sonic the Hedgehog and the 2019 masterpiece - Cats.
I really thought this movie was a Money Laundering Scheme. I never expected it to be real
Honestly, I think the scene with the wedding is a daydream sequence were Galinda is imagining it like in the play but elphaba says he asked you already ? And we’re back to reality that’s what I think going on 😂
I am hyped! I am agreeing that the pinks that Ariana are wearing are pretty muted/pastel. Hyped to see Michelle Yeoh and Jeff Goldblum, too! But mostly, I am definitely watching for Elphaba! I am cautiously optimistic.
It’s two parts, the first movie is just based on the first act. It’s gonna suck.
Wicked was the first production I ever saw as a 19 year old, can't believe I'm 35 now and will finally get a movie version! Genuinely keen to see what comes of it. PS - more live-action Diva please! Your personality is so lovely :)
It’s only half a movie version, it’s ONLY based on act one. No act two.
After relistening to her weird cover of Popular she did with Mika I'm not confident Ari has the range or gravitas for some of the later Glinda songs, but we'll see how much of the score actually makes it in.
That being said, this trailer is visually *scrumptious* and i want to see it in theaters just to enjoy how pretty it looks.
She used to have the ability, at least. Unsure about now, but if she actually TRIES, I think it'll be good
Yeah, that cover doesn’t do justice of her range or gravitas but after hearing that leaked audio and seeing her do I think No One Mourns The Wicked on set and even bits of Dear Old Shiz, I think she can manage and is actually trying. So gives me some hope but I am just cautiously optimistic about the whole situation, all things considering due to her time on Hairspray Live and all that.
@@geekyheadquartersi didn't like her in Hairspray.
I mean, it’s not really a cover, but rather just a song that samples the song from Wicked. I see what you mean, though.
massive fan of the books here, The slippers showed up and I said to my husband "OMG did you see that!" and then replayed that section about half a dozen times before he realized "Oh, her slippers are silver" I was a little annoyed, he's heard me rant about those damn slippers on many many times and it took him half a dozen passes before he caught it!
Haha I feel your pain! I’m SO happy they used the OG color
1:01 FR 😂 also I agree with the brighter pinks I am not sure about unsaturated pastels for Glinda.
They should just make it one movie
I didn't know they're making 2 movies. Why is that? And I'm torn on the inclusion of Dorothy and company. On one hand, it would be so cool to see them interact with this version's Elphaba. But I'm also wondering why they're doing that, if that makes sense. Wicked worked so well because it wasn't just a retelling: it was a whole new side of the story, and that helped us explore characters and the structure/rules of the world. What we took for granted as kids (a magical world where anything can happen), we see more of in the "older" version (it's corrupt and broken).
I'm worried that they're gonna overshadow the main plot with the inclusion of the original story.
Nice to finally meet you Diva!😊😊
I kinda hope that this means we’ll see more of Dorthy & Friends, much like how we see the Wizard with them in his throne room. Perhaps, because of it being two movies and us having the time, we’ll be able to see Glinda first find Nessarose squashed under the house, and will see her have to hold herself together and send Dorothy off to the Emerald City with the Silver Shoes in order to keep them safe? Moments that we only see the tail of in the stage show where Dorothy’s journey directly overlaps with Glinda, Elphaba, and the Wizard. We see these iconic moments we know, and then we see the moment after with the characters we ‘re following in Wicked.
0:14 oh please more lore! About diva and Donna!
This reminded me how much I love Wicked and the Wizard of Oz in general!
Ah, there’s the face of the person I’ve been watching now for about 10years now… and will continue to do 😊
Cannot wait for this adaptation. Watched the musical back in 2018, one of my all time favorites.✨
Don’t hold your breath. They’re splitting it into two movies, act one and act two, instead of just making it one movie.
Oh my gosh it's so good to finally see you!!!!!
I'm not very possessive over Wicked like I am with other shows becoming movie-musicals so I'm willing to keep a pretty open mind here. The only thing that disappointed me is the generic scoring choice for most of the trailer. Even if producers didn't want to showcase a lot of singing, Stephen Schwartz has written a musical complete with themes and leitmotifs. The scoring for the trailer could have at least attempted to draw from some of that.
I dunno. My main feelings here are "Can Arianna Grande do Broadway singing" and "If this had come out five years ago, I might give more of a damn."
I haven't seen the show or read the book, so this will be a first look at the whole Wicked tale for me.
Oh wow! Hi! Nice to see you!
I feel like we musical theatre fans have been waiting long enough for this film that they could just give us a proper musical trailer. Anybody who doesn’t know by now that there will be singing can deal with that shock on their own - give us theatre kids our movie! 😅
They’re not. It’s half a movie. It’s only based on act one. Act two is going to be a different movie.
I honestly find it hilarious that with the trend of musicals hiding the fact that they're musicals, that people list Wonka as an example, I mean people should not be surprised that any Willy Wonka film is a musical (even the Johnny Depp version had the Oompa Loompas singing.)
Nice to see you! I always enjoy your videos. Warm greetings from Poland!
I think Goldblum and Erivo are inspired casting, and from what we can see of Yeoh and Grande - they look promising in those roles! I do like that we see Galinda's chaperone from the novel, and I think part of them splitting into 2 movies is that it's potentially twice the ticket sales and revenue for the studio. Though, if they eff the first film up, the second may not pull the same amounts of moviegoers.
Yay I love this type of video! Also I 100% agree with the colors of Glinda. It really should pop!
Just wanted to say my new girlfriend and I bonded over loving your videos, so thanks for all the great content and keep it up! Cheers from NYC.
Hi Christy. That was fun!
Glinda wore white at Ahoz to contrast from the saturated blue everyone else wears. So the change to a light pink is actually really cool and totally in line with the original color design language for the characters. It will likely replace the Im Not That Girl reprise for a full length song.
Hiya Christi, really enjoyed yer trailer reaction to 'Wicked', looks like an awesome film!
I also love yer 'Musical Hell' reviews as well as 'Know The Score', can't wait for more of them, keep up the brilliant work and can't wait to see what more lies ahead on yer channel! 😀
Well..this is a surprise! I wasn't expecting to see your face, but I love it either way. And with the Wicked trailer..I do love what I'm seeing, I admit. Everyone looks great. The only one I have actual concerns with is..well..Ariana Grande. Sure, she had origins in musical theater, but she's evolved since then and her music has become more pop in tastes. I'm not saying a pop singer can't do a great job in a musical..there has been a few exceptions. But when I think of Ariana Grande, I think the Taylor Swift casting in Cats. And god, we know how horrible that went with her Macavity number. Not to mention the controversies surrounding her with Jeannette McCurdy and some others.
I'd love to be proven wrong, while I'm not the biggest fan of her vocals, feel like she doesn't enunciate properly and a bit gaspy in some of her songs. But she's the only one I've been concerned with, thus making me openly cautious about the film. I don't want to have a disastrous of a movie like Dear Evan Hansen, Mean Girls or Cats. I've waited too long for this.
2:25 I agree. It is a really an interesting thing they are doing with movie musicals where they are not promoting the music heavily by not showing any scenes of the characters singing, which was apparently done due to the studios thinking they will get more ticket sales if they promote them that way. Specifically started recently this year with The Little Mermaid, Wonka, The Color Purple, and Mean Girls.
Low key didn't know Wonka was a musical cuz there was no singing in the trailer! Love this frame by frame recap!
The illusiveness of making a trailer without singing for a musical is similar to what they did with the sweeny todd trailer. making it so some were surprised by it being a musical kinda throws a lot of the audience off.
I remember all the bitching about into the woods as well
The reason John M Chu split Wicked into two movies is because he was not allowed to extend the length of one movie to include all of the songs from the show. He experienced first hand the wrath of In The Heights fans when all of the Rosario’s songs were cut for time, and has seen similar backlash with movies like Dear Even Hansen, and he probably thought this was the best choice.
I feel like Dear Evan Hansen didn't get flack for cutting songs so much as it cut important songs for the character arcs but I wasn't like super tuned into the discourse
That… sounds like it’s gonna backfire, because if Part I doesn’t perform well enough at the box office, then we have the entirety of Act II cut.
I'm iffy on it and the two-film format as well. However, I will probably watch it. Especially since I saw the musical last year and loved it.
My mother went to see the musical years ago, and she definitely enjoyed it. So believe me when I say she's thoroughly excited for this one 😊
3:10 I mean, to be fair when is Michelle Yeoh ever NOT serving. The woman is absolutely gorgeous.
Even though Wickes should be only one movie, this first look is good. I'm curious to see more.
1) I am more optimistic for the movie based on the trailer, though yeah, there is no need for it to be 2 movies imo
2) I was hoping that with you retiring Musical Hell as a series that we would still get reactions and just general unscripted reviews of things, and based on this video, I'm hoping that's the case. Loved hearing your thoughts on the trailer.
The city looks good.
I assumed the wedding would be "Thank Goodness" but I forgot Act 2 will probably be the next movie. :P
I, too, desperately want those shoes.
Ur thoughts on wonka?
Omg love seeing live action Diva 🥰
Love your channel Christi! Maybe it’s my age as an Xer but this trailer really depressed me. It just *looks* so generic (nightmares of Cats) and filled with faaaar too much cgi and (for me) this always overwhelms the music (again - Cats) and the beauty and FEEL of the music. And sadly yes I think there will be people who take very young kids to this thinking it’s just some new “Oz” movie without really knowing anything about the musical (or that it’s even a musical).
Omg seeing your face is like seeing oz for the first time 😍😍😍. I adore your content so much ❤
Do we really need a wicked movie though? I honestly would prefer if musicals like Wicked or Hadestown just got pro shots released like Hamilton or Come from Away. Because for every In the Heights that actually does it well, there’s a Dear Evan Hansen that ends up turning people away from the original.
I also hope the other trailers don’t do what the trailers for Wonka, Mean Girls, and The Color Purple did, where movie musicals pretend to not be musicals because “test audiences don’t think musicals can be cool and/or profitable”. Because people who don’t like musicals will only get pissed off when they pay for their movie tickets, sit down in the theaters, and realize they’ve been tricked into watching a musical.
Wonka made a decent amount of money but you're right, I didn't know it WAS a musical until I went to buy tickets. I love musicals so it didn't bother me in the least but yeah, I want music in my trailers.
@@sabrinaloizides-merideth9874 A good or catchy song can sometimes do a better job of selling a movie to people than even the trailer can. Especially nowadays with TikTok and instagram edits of popular songs getting tons of views, studios should be leaning into this to market they’d movies. It worked for Hazbin Hotel’s trailer advertising all the Broadway stars in the cast, and posting all the songs on Amazon Prime’s TH-cam channel and social media to help get the show trending.
Theater Ticket= 100 bucks or more.
Movie ticket= 20 bucks at most.
Does that answer your question?
@@mightyfilm That’s why I suggested releasing a pro shot. They’re really great for people who can’t afford/don’t leave near Broadway, and can allow musicals that have been off Broadway for years like Great Comet to still be enjoyed.
@@LauraM96829 I wish PBS would still have these kinds of recorded musicals as part of their pledge drives instead of tacky Boomer My Music type shows and horrid self help gurus basically doing infomercials for their own books as a charitable tax write off. That's how my mom was able to access Broadway shows.
LOVE this! So great to see you! Also I agree the PINK needs to be PINKER but it seems like this sort of muted color palette is all the rage these days in films... The Little Mermaid suffered from it as well. I think it's done in an attempt to make things feel more "real" but I think it does a disservice to the aesthetics of the film... especially fantasy films. And I personally don't love that riff, it sounds a bit too drawn out and almost clumsy to me. The original has a more "cutting" feeling.
Yeah, the muted palettes don’t make movies look more real; they make them look dull. I wish more filmmakers understood that the real world has bright colors too.
Maybe it's my ears but that last riff didn't sound good at all to me. That said, it's a hard part of the song to hit. The rest of the trailer seemed promising though.
Honestly, I’m actually really glad that they’re separating the movie into two parts. If they condensed it into one, it would inevitably lead to a ton of stuff being left out.
What I love is the idea of casting a woman of color as Elphaba, with the fact that her skin color being different from everyone else being the clear sign of why her character is seen as misunderstood and not necessarily evil. It's a clear allegory for how often people of color have been 'othered' and depicted as evil in the past.
Given John M. Chu has some cred with musicals (he directed the screen adaptation of “In the Heights”), I trust him to do well. Also smart to condense it into 2 parts even if we do get a bit sick of that, but it likely would hurt the film to trim way too much of each act in a single film
good to see your face Diva!
Hi Diva! So youre in your human form for this video?
Does anyone have a clip of Jeff Goldblum singing?
I think I read or heard somewhere (don’t remember from where or whom) that they were making two movies because Defying Gravity is such a tough act to follow and to make a whole second half of a movie after that would be really hard as it’s a literal act closer in the show.
I can sort of see the logic in there and I do hope they can pull it off and give us more insight and development of the characters- Elphaba and Glinda and their relationship especially. But I’m also kinda concerned how they’re going to make it work for two movies.
But other than that I am very excited and pleased with how this movie looks, the actors, the cinematography and everything, it looks great! There are some details, like you said Glinda’s wardrobe seems oddly muted considering her character, but other than that I am cautiously optimistic about the movie.
I saw Wicked last year over hear in Germany and one of the details I remember was how the slippers were silver until Elphaba hexed them. I always figured that was normal for Wicked?
In the stage show, I believe that’s normal. In the Wizard of Oz book (which the story of Wicked is based off of/adapted from) they were silver as well. But most people are familiar with the Wizard of Oz film where the slippers are red (this was done because when the film came out, films in color were new and they wanted something more visually striking)
When I saw your reaction to the trailer for the 2 part movie adaptation of the musical it made me think of something what if they did a live tv production of the musical wicked like they did with the musicals grease hair spray and the wiz and the sound of music to name a few
I have to say, I kinda like the new format. Indeed, I had been wanting to ask something as a fan, but unfortunately not a Patrion, and it wouldn't fit with your usual format. That is, as demon from Musical Hell, what are your thoughts on a certain musical set in Hell? I, of course, mean Hazbin Hotel. I'm genuinely curious, but it doesn't seem like the kind of thing you would want to tear apart. Other than your Know the Score segments, your channel usually doesn't offer praise.
But I have zero bargaining chips to ask, just curious.
honestly, I always wanted to see a 2d animation of the Wicked and not a live action one.
Hey Christi!
I was wondering whether you still plan on doing a 10-year look back at “Les Miserables” (2012) as you said you were thinking of sometime ago?
Love you channel!
The steam punk train is funny to me as original trains are already kind of steampunk lol.
It's weird to me they're doing two parts yet we see Dorothy + March of the Witch Hunters stuff which is like, solidly in Act 2? Like are they adding more stuff, are they not ending at act 1?
The teaser shows stuff from both parts, hence the confusion. And, yes, they are adding more from the book and closing Part I with Defying Gravity. Apparently Part II will have a couple of new songs too.
I was thinking the same thing. Dorothy shouldn't show up until near the end of the whole thing.
If they're adding parts of the book the book starts with a flash forward to the party talking, it's definitely not in the emerald city that this conversation takes place, but they could mix things up a little and move it to that section of the story@@PDComicBookNetwork
I just wonder if they'll be adding more elements from the book the musical is based on?
Christi your eyes are so gorgeous!!
I LOVED seeing your beautiful face Diva! get us more videos like these
DEVA!!!!!
The only reason my hype was subdued was because of what happened in Rafah. But, you know my user tag on all my other socials, even subdued hype has reached the stratosphere. It’s absolutely thrillifying!
I have to say: I'm more worried by the amount of glitzy CGI action scenes in the trailer. Not every movie needs to be an action movie, dammit! Sure, there is some action in Wicked ("Defying Gravity" comes to mind), but you can still keep that quite limited in its presentation, and play more into the drama of it all.
Diva!
So I understand thinking galinda’s costumes may be lacking in the shade of pink, but in the original Broadway show her popular dress is the only pink she wears. Her shiz uniform is a cream (like fiyero’s pants, that people think are white cause stage lighting), and she’s in blues and greens for the rest of the show (besides the yellow in one short day). Id say Ariana’s costumes seem more of a gentle reference to Glinda’s dress from the wizard of oz film (which also wasn’t super intense and more of a pastelle).
I can kinda get how people might not know that Wicked is a musical but it’s one of the most well known musicals of the 21st century and it’s had multiple tours throughout the world. My only hope is that the movies do really well and a new generation of fans is born.
Ah, I see Diva has gotten herself a human disguise. Very nice.
would you do a last unicorn musical bell? ?
Compared to the Mama Mia movies, I'm actually interested in this! Mostly for Ari.
After 11 whole years, Ariana Grande is finally getting her big screen debut! Uh... we don't count her voice acting roles in Metegol or whatever that Snowflake movie was...
The Emerald City in this reminds me a lot of the Return to Oz emerald city (without the creepy statues)
And the childhood traumas and plotholes.
@@rogue7723 I’m a huge RTO fan and the movie didn’t traumatise me (don’t know what that says about me) hahaha
Ah. The only other successful Wizard of Oz project. And they've been trying to make this for an entire lifespan by this point, glad to see something come out of it. I don't know if this is something that's up my alley, but I'm still happy they finally got this made. And at worst, at least it can't possibly any worse than that Muppet one, and that's coming from a real felt blooded Muppet fan.
This Trailer: Why So Serious?
Have to admit it looks good, but I have yet to understand why it's necessary or why they needed do it in two parts. I admit I've never seen the play, but I did read Wicked years ago. Maybe they're trying to be closer to the original while still incorporating the songs of the musical?
Also, is it just me or does Cynthia Erivo look really young as Elphaba? I know she's in her mid-30s, but she doesn't look it in the makeup.
But Jeff Goldblum as the Wizard? Fantastic! I can just hear him speaking the lines right now. Maybe this will be worthwhile.
I'm curious what they're going to do with Dorothy. She's kept off screen in the musical but now she's going to have a prominent role (maybe?). I think this a terrible idea if they're taking inspiration from the MGM film (like the musical) and aligning her storyline in Oz to the musical, but if they're taking more inspiration from the original book, this could work.
I think this trailer was made for an audience watching the Super Bowl who might be more familiar with The Wizard of Oz than Wicked, and the shots were chosen strategically.
I’d heard Dorothy was in it, and she’s in the Wicked book, but that won’t take away from everything else necessarily.
@PelafinaLievre We do see Dorothy's silhouette in the musical to be fair. And as you said, she's in the book. I did a comparison essay on four texts in my last year of high school. I had to use one assigned text but I could choose the others, so I chose Wicked, Jane Eyre and Chinese Cinderella against a movie based on a Maurice Gee novel. My focus question was based on the theme of being an outsider, so I had to read the book over the winter holidays when I wasn't reading Jane Eyre (I'd already read Chinese Cinderella over and over).
@@strawberrysoulforever8336 That’s an interesting choice of book for a high school essay
@@PelafinaLievre Well, I passed all my internals. Admittedly I only got Achieved on this, when I got Merit on my movie review of the movie we did and on the speech where I had to describe three important moments in Othello. But then, I was good at Shakespeare. I was going to do a Shakespearean paper at uni, but it got cancelled due to lack of interest - there weren't enough students. I suppose I could have used a play as one of my texts (we had to have three texts, which is why I had a film, an autobiographical book and two novels), but my choices were partly because of the outsider theme and I can't think of any Shakespeare plays that I know well enough that would fit in with my research questions. Jane Eyre was already a stretch after her childhood.
@@strawberrysoulforever8336 Admittedly, the biggest thing I remember about Wicked is there’s a lot of sex in it.
A+ for set design, love the steam punk look. Iffy on the costumes so far. Very worried about if Arianna Grande can act. Granted I'm only seeing a few seconds here but all I see her doing so far is flashing confused face and there is more to Glinda then that.
Well hello on camera Diva 👋🙂
Wait wicked like the musical?😮 they’re doing a movie for it? Ooo
No, they did 2 movies
I wonder will they add the ending from the novel, I doubt it, which I am fine with as I enjoy the musical as its own thing, I am just wary as I love Wicked so I'd prefer not to see it ruined by Hollywood. Honestly, I'd prefer it if they released a recording of the stage musical, but I don't think we're gonna get that treat anytime soon.
I read Elephaba's "I am" line when Glinda says "You're green" as Elephaba being surprised and actually asking Glinda for conformation, which obviously doesn't make sense since she was born green, maybe it was just the line delivery but it didn't come off as sarcasm to me which is kind of weird.
Yea, I too am baffled over why they have split this in two, what about Wicked in particular needs it's second half to come out an entire year later? You can't even argue that it's to try to better reflect the West End/Broadway show because Act 1 and 2 are separated by a short interveinal, not a year-long gap.
I'll reserve judgement till I've seen it, but I am fairly wary.
I should probably find a bootleg before watching the movie to prepare myself
Sony Pictures started the PING!
what got me confused is the way elphaba says "i am?" when galinda says she's green...i don't know if this is meant sarcastically, but it SOUNDS like she's genuinely surprised to me, implying that something happens in the story that TURNS her green. personally, i would hate it if that's true, because her greenness is so central to how isolated her character has been her entire life...hopefully i'm just misunderstanding this exchange!
A movie adaptation of Wicked? Interesting.
It's two movies? Already Noping out.
I 4 1 am excited 4 this Wicked movie! Chriti, I actually have some ideas 4 future Musical Hell reviews. I hope U take these 2 concideration. Pocahontas, Pocahontas 2: Journey to a New World, any of the Land Before Time sequels, Blue's Clues: Blue's Big Musical, The Little Mermaid (2023),
I take offense to covering Pocahontas as a Musical Hell review. Regardless of how you may feel about the story and how it took liberties with the real historical events and the characters in comparison to the previous films that came before it in the Disney Renaissance period, there’s no denying that even when it’s a weaker film Alan Menken still can put great effort into his score and the songs by Stephen Schwartz are actually good; especially with Colors of the Wind which has become as iconic as other Disney songs like “When You Wish Upon a Star” or “Part of Your World” or “Bare Necessities”. Even those who dislike the film admit that “Colors of the Wind” is the best song of the film and do enjoy it on its own.
@hunterolaughlin I know I feel the same way about Pocahontas. I love the film 2 death. But, I just want 2 hear her thoughts on it. As well as the Nostalgia Critic.
@@isaackinne1971 But why a Musical Hell review? Why not just a blog style review? It’d make more sense than doing a typical Musical Hell review.
@hunterolaughlin because I'm more comfortable watching her talking behind the iconic background, with the title of the channel, Diva on the right side of the screen, and the fire effect on the front. She also shows clips from the movie she reviews. We'll, except 4 Playmobil the Movie, where she was forced 2 reenact some scenes with random figures she probably bought and use public domain footage.
Okay, I gotta ask: Is it just your screen or are your eyes actually, like, two brilliant blue saphires?
I cannot believe it took this long to make a movie. I feel it would have been better suited for this to come out a decade ago. I am not sure the fanbase is enough to warrant the price tag. I feel this is too late. Thoughts?
Hav u considered reviewing the diary of a wimpy kid musical?
The what?
@@altothealtoiest1682 it exists. Search it up.
That's a thing?
yes and it's amazing. @@ZeldaEd123
