Confused audiences everywhere decried the movie, wondering why on Earth Universal Pictures would choose to make it over a more likely slam dunk, like, say, a Wicked movie. Fast-forward to today and Wicked finally hits cinemas worldwide, and let’s just say, it was definitely worth the wait. Elphaba’s enemies-to-friends relationship with the oh-so-perfect Galinda (later Glinda, and eventually Glinda the Good Witch of the North) is also central to the plot. There’s no getting past the fact that this is a long movie that might have benefited from slimming down a smidge. Personally, *I couldn’t be happier* with Chu’s offering to the world – bring on next year for Part Two!
