Oh man, I'm so looking forward to this. I love the Wizard of Oz.

Went to see Wicked over this past summer, too. Amazing show. Can't wait for this.

I love the Wizard of OZ too but this will be nothing like that. You understand this right?

Here is a trailer (http://www.tvsquad.com/2007/10/07/scifis-tin-man-trailer-video/)

My first thoughts on seeing this were.....The Wiz! :rolleyes: :p

Im not really fond of taking beloved stories, ripping the magic of the story out, only leaving the bare skeleton, and then inserting it into a totally new (and completely different) body. This reminds me of Marky Marks Planet of the Apes. /sigh

I really like Neal McDonough though, a great actor. Why didnt they make a series out of White Dwarf (http://query.nytimes.com/gst/fullpage.html?res=990CE4DB1039F930A15756C0A9639582 60)(this was an interesting world!) instead of an OZ remake.

Yeah, I know - it's gonna be like the Alice in Wonderland version of The Wizard of Oz. Which is okay by me, because I love Alice in Wonderland too. >_>

Wow. The dialog in the trailer is painfully bad.

"The O-Z" -- You gotta be kidding me.

This is going to be a steaming pile.

It will be a glittery and brightly colored steaming pile, but a steaming pile nonetheless.

Im not really following the comparison because this rethinking of OZ is more like near future Scifi than Alice in Wonderland :confused:

I'm referring to the head trip that Alice in Wonderland was.

Looks like poop.
And Alice in Wonderland was a traumatizing experience for a child.
It was for me... *shudders* Oh the memory's
*lies in fetal position*
