The character arc of Oscar Diggs (a.k.a. The Wizard) left me unsatisfied. It appeared that he turned at least one woman to evil by seducing and abandoning her — what kind of hero is that? Did his saving Oz (for the time being) from the two evil witches (both of whom he seduced and abandoned) redeem him?

All that aside, I enjoyed the movie.

Twoo is my favorite all time

Kids gave me special 50 year annv DVD

I enjoyed this movie very much

Disney tied a lot in from the original

Had the tone of original

[morphing libertarian]

He was a rake but redeemed himself

[Empireoftheatom48]

We loved it! Need to get it to keep! Is it out yet?

[ClearCase_guy]

That’s the spirit! Call a spade a spade!

I put it on our netflix list...thank you in advance as you won’t hear from me if I liked it. :{)

My kids and I thought it was a total dog.

[The Wizard]

if you like this kind of film, you will like this one....I got it after seeing some clips of the CGI animation, but never expected to actually like it.....now I will buy it so I can watch it when I want to......very nice film..

The seduction is strongly implied but not explicit.

[The Wizard]

don't let one person's input, not even mine, stop you from giving it a chance....the kids will never connect the lightly deep spots of story, they are for us older folks...all the original great Disney films had suggestive parts for the older audience.

(IE a scene in Snow White had the Queen telling one of her henchmen to bring back her heart in a box, and had the queen walking past the skeleton of a man jailed reaching for water...Disney always played to more than one level)

[gorush]

Our tastes are eclectic. We’ll give it a look.

Oz, the Great and Powerful was an enjoyable movie, but it doesn’t compare to the original Wizard of Oz. And the lead does some morally questionable things.

I'll be "gald?"

What exactly does that mean?
