    Petition to get Jon to release an extended director's cut! I want to see all the extra bits and bobs that didn't make it into the film. Lord of the Rings did it and the extended versions are *spectacular*.

    If Lord of the Rings can get a 4 hour extended edition that 95% of people think is better, Wicked could get a 3 hour extended edition, no problem.

      Maybe. The train scene isn't actually finished, so there would be a considerable amount of effects work required to put it back in the movie.

    • @iantan6056

      The theatrical cut is the director's cut. For example, the theatrical cut of Gladiator is the director's cut, while the extended edition is just supplementary

      @ A director’s cut is a version of a movie that reflects the director’s artistic vision more fully than the original theatrical release. Typically released after the film’s initial run, a director’s cut may include additional scenes, alternate edits, or restored content that was omitted from the theatrical version due to time constraints, studio demands, or other factors.

    That eyebrow bit was pure gold. I can imagine how heartbreaking it was to cut. I saw Wicked once as the regular version, then once in 3D, then on Christmas Day i went to the singalong version.

    I'm so glad 2 b alive to witness this great film. JMC is a hero of mine. I've been criticized and rejected ever since I was little by those close to me and colleagues for being "detailed" and loving ultra fine detail and beauty..."oh he's so fernickety", it gives me great pleasure to learn in interviews that JMC is the same.

    I want the fully extended director's cut IN THEATRES. Not gonna be satisfied for them to just be on Bluray. Make it a limited time release just before For Good, as part of promo, then again do a limited theatrical run of a director's cut of For Good after both parts release on Netflix

  • @xxo5294

    The scene i felt should not have been cut out is when Glinda and elphie are practicing magic and Glinda asks her about why her and fyero was gone and not her. Mostly because it was unclear from the film if Glinda actually was studying magic or not. Hopefully she can do magic in part 2 and it’s explained how she got there
