If Ever, Oh Ever, A Wiz There Was...



The first trailer for Sam Raimi's Oz The Great And Powerful.

I really want this to be good - as I'm a massive Oz fan - but it looks terrifyingly similar in parts to the soulless Tim Burton butchering of Alice In Wonderland (another of my favourite old time franchises) the other year.

However - Spider-Man 3 aside - I do have much more faith in Raimi.
When small-time magician Oscar Diggs (James Franco) pulls one flimflam too many, he finds himself hurled into the fantastical Land of Oz where he must somehow transform himself into the great and powerful Wizard—and just maybe into a better man as well.

Starring James Franco, Mila Kunis, Rachel Weisz, Michelle Williams, and Zach Braff and directed by Sam Raimi. Oz The Great and Powerful arrives in UK cinemas March 2013.

  1. Just shared the trailer with my gaming society, and I think it might actually do well. Looks a hell of a lot better than Alice in Wonderland...
