I blame that goddamn Wicked. The rape and pillaging of L.Frank Baum's works illustrates the terrible things that can happen when a creation goes out of copyright. I applaud Disney's efforts to keep Mickey and the gang out of the clutches of despoilers and ragpickers. I only wish that Disney in turn would appreciate the inherent innocence of the Land of Oz. Speaking of which - if Disney wants to make a new Oz film, why not base it on one of the many original books? The sequel to "Wizard of Oz" - "The Land of Oz" - would make a great film, especially animated. Wish Disney would give that a look.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5244647450237014911.post-80264850921026902412010-06-15T19:06:59.113-07:002010-06-15T19:06:59.113-07:00Anybody remember Return to Oz with Fairuza Balk as...Anybody remember Return to Oz with Fairuza Balk as Dorothy?
