Wizard of Oz remake

This would make so much money.....

I would rather they stopped with the bad remakes, but the right director could do wonders to this. I love the Wizard of Oz but the way the colors are drives me up the wall. I want to kill!!!!AHHH

Anyway, back to a remake, it should be done......

i believe it's not going to be a remake of the old film but rather a retelling of the book...if i remember right, its not going to be a musical but actually quite a dark film

If that's the case Jaden101, I would be quite interested to see how the makers go about that.

The original freaked me out so much as a kid I can't even watch it now... I don't think I am interested in a remake AT ALL! Esp. if they have flying monkeys, I get the chills just thinking about them.

Wait...is this just a theoretical thing, or are they actually making one? The Sci-Fi channel mini-series not included cuz that's not Oz.

If it's theoretical...I've always wanted to be a filmmaker and the number one film I wanted to make was a retelling of the Baum novel. If I was to make it, it would be fairly dark...and nothing like the 39 film...as much of a classic as it is.

Dorothy would be a young girl, like she is in the novel first of all. And I think the story would progress with the backstory culminated in the "Wicked" novels in mind. The wizard would be a darker character, and the wicked witch would not be old and hideous.

I've been toying around with the idea for years and have so many images in my mind and things have changed from time to time. I toyed with the idea of making the tin-man a steam powered robot type character, (not futuristic looking but old-fasioned looking, think the big spider in wild wild west) and having the lion look like a regular lion, but one who could talk...that's how he is in the book.

I'd love for it to happen...but the chances of myself ever being involved in something huge like that in a creative position are of course really really slim.

I would LOVE to see a modern day retelling of the Wizard of Oz.


I bet that it would be a dark film.

Dorothy was actually 8 years old in the book. Originally, Shirley Temple was going to be casted for the lead role, but didn't win because she had mediocre singing talents compared to Judy Garland.

A remake?
The original definitely is the one people are going to remember, therefore making a remake on the film, to me is just a little silly. I do not always agree with them, i do not think movies like this need to be remade.

well given that the one everyone already remembers (the 1939 film) is a remake anyway...kinda makes you look silly...cause the original was made in 1910...another in 1921 which was never released...another in 1925...another in 1932...a cartoon version in 1933....a short version in 1938....all before the Judy Garland film

If they want a kid then Dakota Fanning, but can she sing?

Kristen Bell does musical theater acting is why I choose her.

If they do a remake, it shouldn't be a musical, imo.

If a remake happens, I'm willing to bet 100% that it won't be a musical.

Paris Hilton could play the Wicked Witch with no makeup required at all.
