Oz!

Ok so I haven't written in a while but I saw Oz: The great and powerful tonight and wanted to post my thoughts. First of all, I had a lot of hope for this movie. A prequel to Wizard of Oz, Disney, colorful, live action, Mila Kunis, Michelle Williams, James Franco. Seems to be a good combo.
It was a cute movie, personally I haven't read the original books, and I've never been one of those die hard Oz fans, but it was a cute movie. Good for little kids, definitely some laugh out loud moments for the parents. I was a little disappointed in how....blah it was though. James Franco's Oz is a con man and plays the character pretty....not campy but just over exaggerated I guess. I just realized though as the movie went on and Oz came into himself I started to like the character more and maybe it wasn't on purpose but maybe it was. Or maybe James Franxo is just a genius. When I realized that I was like whoa....

I didn't mean for this to be a movie review. But while I'm at it I really do like Michelle Williams. But yeah. It's a cute movie, just not what I expected.

In other news, HOLY CRAP VERONICA MARS MOVIE!! I watched the beg a thon video and was just loving it. Especially since they honestly want to make the movie. I love the love they have the characters and how Ryan Hansen and Jason Dohrong still act like the best friends that dick and Logan are in the show. It's weird but it makes me happy. I've been rewatching VM since last week so it's a little weird how they announced it while I'm rewatching.

Starting to ramble so I'm signing off. Can I just say one more thing? I'm going to PaxEast on Friday and I can't wait for DW Long Island in November. CON AHOY! And I'm trying to get the money together to go to Philly wizard con at the end of may. Money. It sucks.

Good night!
Emily
