Somewhere over the rainbow, indeed! Kenya Barris tells me that LGBTQ representation will be featured in his “Wizard of Oz” remake. “The original was an allegory and a reflection of the way the world was at the time with things like the Great Depression and the Dust Bowl,” says Barris, who will write and direct the reimagining for Warner Bros. “Now we’re going to turn a mirror on where we’re at right now and take disparate characters from the LGBTQ community, from different cultural communities and socioeconomic communities, and tell a story that reflects the world. I think this is the best time to do that.”
He understands a “Wizard of Oz” remake comes with tremendous pressure. “I’m nervous,” Barris tells me. “Hopefully, my movie can last as long as the original does.” He adds with a laugh: “Hopefully my movie comes out.”

“It’s going to be quite a job woke-izing the flying monkeys, isn’t it?”
Monkeypox, monkeypox!
Never liked the movie anyway, so have at it.
Ironically, the “Classic” wasn’t like the Novel.
***I always wondered about the Cowardly Lion.***
Well, he admitted in his song he was “Just a Dandy Lion!”
Original GWTW was gay af. Didn’t anybody notice?
“If I only had some boobs” - The Scarecrow.
Yup,in the original story the witch didn’t have a flying broom,she didn’t shoot fireballs.
The only power she had was to call out the flying monkeys.🤔
aAre they going to have a transgender scarecrow singing “If I only had a d*ck “?
Original? The 1939 film was the THIRD film version, but the first talkie/musical.
The good news is the book is in the public domain, so anyone can make a movie as long as you avoid anything created specifically for the 1939 version.
I’ll take a hard pass on remake 4 (Now with more woke).
Another piece of crap I will not be watching.
These communists in control of our media and our schools take great delight in mocking and tearing down our culture and our heritage because they are evil, and just live the devil, they take pleasure in destroying and corrupting.
Nope, the woke scriptwriters will set up the The monkeys to have Screeching voices; wearing, red hats, flannel and jeans; drinking Budweiser and ride around in pickup trucks. It’s too easy.
Wickedness.
“Faggot of Oz” is guaranteed to be worthless, wretched, and abominable.
The movie, if made, will be a box-office FLOPAZOOLA!
