It’s also why Disney couldn’t just take Spider-Man from Sony. If Disney left Copyright law alone then Spider-Man would have entered The public domain around the same Time as the first avengers movie. Also this would mean we could have both a Sony Spider-Man and a Disney marvel Spider-Man.

@@brandonporter8509 Untrue. Spiderman came out in 1962. Even under the Copyright Act of 1909 the duration could be as long as 56 years so Spiderman wouldn't have entered into the Public Domain until Jan 1, 2019. The first Avengers movie was in 2012. The Copyright Act of 1976 was to bring the US on par with other countries that had the duration life of author+x years rather than date of publication and it kicked corporate copyright up to 75 years.

@@furryash8388 funny that the iron grip on copyright is cause they keep Lobbying Congress to rewrite copyright law so it effectively becomes as long as the company that makes Or owns it exists copyright is infinite and nothing new will ever enter public domain meaning effectively there will Never be any new musical standards or public stories or public iconic characters. Superman will never be owned By the people Nicky mouse will never pass to the people bugs bunny will never pass to the people . As opposed to Dracula who has passed to the people. The main problem With never letting a fictional being become the people’s is like it or not Dracula is now a concept more Than a single character and because no one company owns this character there are countless different versions of him. I would Even say that if universal Had some Copyright On Dracula as a whole then the only source of new versions would require them To sign off on it sure some versions parody him some make him into a joke some Versions are interesting unique takes that rejuvenate interest in the character enough that universal thought trying to reboot the universal Monster movies as a cinematic universe would Have been a good Idea which had that worked universal would have the fact That Dracula was Public domain to Thank for the renewed Interest justifying them trying a reboot If Disney let Disney things enter the public domain imagine how someone else’s take on Mickey could potentially revitalize massive interest in their character enough make Disney massive money in their own relaunch of things. To me letting things enter the public domain don’t take it from its original holder it just makes the original holder the ones making the authentic version. And when an alternate version repopularizes the character often people take interest in the authentic original again too

Slavic fun facts: the polish word for a witch is "wiedźma" which has its roots in the word "wiedza", meaning knowledge. In pre-christian days, witches were respected in polish culture as healers and advisors - until the association with the devil that Lindsay mentioned. They were often accused not only of worshiping the devil but also engaging in sexual acts with him and a theory about the brooms is that they were supposed to represent the devil's phallus. So there ya go. Also, in south slavic languages Zelena literally means "green". The witch in Once Upon a Time is called Greenie.
@DDdreamer905 жыл бұрын
The viking culture here in Sweden has something similar, with female diviners known as Völvor who were thought to have precognitive powers and were consulted by chieftains and other important people. Since they basically served as advisors they wielded a lot of social power and it was actually illegal for a man to practice their magic, on the pain of death. Buuut like in Poland once christianity hit Sweden they were labeled witches and devil's kin, and the role of völva eventually died out.

Though Oz itself is the single most prominent exception, with good witches. Come to think of it, the modern subversions often cast Glinda as a villain. Glinda does seem like a heartless chessmaster if you think too hard about the plot of the '39 movie, since she withholds crucial information from Dorothy at the beginning that could have gotten her home at any time. But that's just because the movie combined the Good Witch of the North and Glinda into a single character; in the book, she's the Good Witch of the South and Dorothy doesn't meet her until late in the story ("The Wiz" stuck with that).

I don't get why the wicked witch of the west has always been a villain. Her sister died, and her sisters shoes were given away to some little farm girl(in Wicked it explains that witch of east actually left them To the witch of the west in her will). And not only were they given away but it was by her worst enemy who also called her ugly. (Remember when she says all bad witches are ugly). And ofcourse the wizard sent Doroty after her, so that Doroty could kill her, and steal her broom. If some magic dude sent a little girl after me to kill me and then steal my possesions I would be pissed off also. Not to mention said little girl is wearing my dead sisters stolen magical shoes, that are legally mine!
@MattMcIrvin7 жыл бұрын
Well, the book and the movie do both present the Wicked Witches as cruel, slave-driving rulers over the lands they control, whose subjects instantly celebrate when they're dead. That's definitely a point in favor of a "villain" interpretation, but it's all background. I think the Wizard does protest too much when he insists that he's a very good man, just a very, very bad wizard. He doesn't seem like a very good man to me.

I liked the way Lindsay handled this, hands down the 1939 version beats all. I was dissatisfied though with her treatment of The Wiz. Yes it was one of many African American knock offs of white material, but it stood out as great on its own due to the focus on Caribbean art, culture and the slave history that merged with the art. The Wicked Witch's costume in particular was rich in Cuban, Jamaican and other Caribbean art made beautiful with the witch's wonderfully expressive face. Elements of voodoo are also incorporated. The music and dance are outstanding in so many ways. Black children like myself back then all felt this was not just any remake, it had things that we could feel deep down were of the black experience in America which included all the places our ancestors came from AND was based on a story of different kinds of culture from our white ancestors. The film was released during a time of great turmoil and sadness due to the closing of the Civil Rights window of opportunity from all the assassinations, Watergate and the Vietnam War. Americans of all colors desperate for happiness turned to Norman Lear's All in the Family and The Jeffersons, to black and multicultural disco music, to the Roots TV miniseries and to the increasing popularity of Michael Jackson and his brothers. The Wiz rode on all this to deserved success and well deserves its place amongst the most influential and impressionable films ever made, in spite of the borrowed storyline and simplistic plot.
@hyperchica6 жыл бұрын
I was, too. I haven't seen the film so I can't attest to how "good" it is, but it seems like Lindsay just glossed over it like "yeah, okay.... next". I was reminded of when Nostalgia Critic and Todd in the Shadows did Wiz, completely panned it and also missed absolutely all of the important symbolism it contains which is rooted in black culture. Can we get a black person to do a proper take on it, please, instead of all these white* people weighing in without being aware of (or bothering to research) the cultural context? I would have liked to at least see Lindsay acknowledge her blinders on that front. *Admittedly I'm not sure of Todd's race, and he might not be white, but he still didn't do it justice.

The real problem is, it's much better in Wicked. In "Let It Go" she sings her happy independence song while freezing her entire kingdom to death. There's a lot of dissonance in every song in Frozen between the song and what's actually happening in the movie. Let's sing a quirky love song during my sister's first time interacting socially with the outside world after years of isolation! Let's have the snowman sing about how he's going to die when it warms up and doesn't know it, how cute! Let's sing another quirky love song while the trolls are really misunderstanding the situation and being unhelpful and oh yeah, Anna is dying. And the most famous song of all is one that happens while presumably millions of people are dying or suddenly dealing with intense blizzards ruining their lives off screen. Elphaba does some bad things with her magic, but nothing to warrant the label of Wicked Witch, yet all Elsa has to do is save Anna and she gets instantly forgiven by the whole general public of the kingdom she buried under snow and ice? How many children died while she was just singing about how happy she was to be free? This movie is terrible.
@gublinchscrivener78917 жыл бұрын
I mean, saying it's "better" because it's not dissonant is kind of weird. "Let It Go" is a deliberately dissonant song. She's full of relief, yes, but she's also *abandoning her home, family and duty*. It's catharsis, which as Rantasmo aptly points out, is not enough on its own. She's Letting Go. They're similar songs, but it's wrong to compare them so closely. Defying Gravity is about defiance (though there are some open-ended questions on whether, perhaps, Glenda was right to try to stick around and fix things within the system). Let It Go is about *release*. Also, everything Elphaba does is deliberate. The people who get hurt on her watch died because of choices she made. Everything Elsa does is pretty much outside her control, which is the whole point of the movie. *"Couldn't keep it in / Heaven knows I've tried."* I mean, seriously. Children dying? You *do* remember you're watching a Disney movie, right? The movie never depicts what Elsa does as a good choice-it's simply relieving for her, personally. Critiquing a song because the character isn't doing the right thing in it is just silly.

Hal Cromwell I remember reading that Margaret Hamilton was rightfully upset that even though the actress who played Glinda had even less screentime than her, that actress got better pay and a much bigger, more luxurious dressing room. Not that Hamilton was envious, just that she didn't think it was appropriate to treat Glinda's actress as superior to all the other actors in the film.

I saw Ashanti play Dorothy in the Wiz in the Encores summer series. When I saw the Muppett Version, I actually thought it was such an improvement over what she did on stage. She was really over the top and it felt like she was channeling a grade school kid getting her first lead. I don't know that I will ever lose the memory of her during the tornado. She was on a door on all fours and a frozen face of shock. As people danced around her and lifted that door up. I kinda thought maybe she was on fear of falling off. Then I realized, she doesn't have much range.
@anthonyL1995 Жыл бұрын
So, the thing with The Wiz is that Dorothy is supposed to be thirteen. Stephanie Mills the original actress was in the age range of thirteen at the time of the Broadway production. Diana Ross really wanted to play the role. Which is understandable while it's not a great show the music is great in The Wiz. So, Ashanti playing the character was not only supposed to be a way for her to prove herself after the Muppet fiasco but also they tried justifying it because of Ross and because it was a quasi-concert. They made no attempt at aging the character so that Dorothy wasn't being played by a woman in her 30's which at least the movie adjusted the plot so Diana wasn't playing a little girl.

It was also a brewery thing. Women used to be the predominant beer makers, and would hang brooms over their establishments. Their brewing methods were also well kept secrets that they kept either within their own families if they had children, or passed on to young apprentices of their own choosing, mostly young girls. Men back then (and to an extent even now) didn't like it when women were successful and capable of living on their own because if they could provide for themselves, then they were less likely to marry asshole who would use and abuse them because the women were financially well off, so the men of the time started to associate brooms with withcraft, and in that way began demonizing these independent businesswomen in order to take away their credibility, as well as to have an excuse to snoop around and steal their brewing secrets.

Once Upon a Time has the best adaptation of the Wizard of Oz. There is a saying that says “ Your Green with Envy” so that was pretty clever. Also OUAT is known for not just going by Disney films but also by the original folklore of theses fairytales and putting there own little spin/ twist on these iconic characters. Also the idea of putting all these characters together, seeing how they are connected, and giving explanations on how certain events happened or how certain characters became who they are is just amazing. It’s like Avengers but for fairytales. If they ever have a film adaptation I hope hey do make it a little different but still as good as the show.

1:36 Actually, there's a pretty interesting reason witches are associated with broomsticks, as well as many other witchy stereotypes. Studies have shown that the idea of witches have been traced back to the profession of beer making, a profession that was almost entirely comprised of women during it's early days. Brewers would wear big hats to make them more noticable in large crowds. They would have cats to keep mice away from the grain storage. And to top it all off, they would put a broomstick over their door once a new batch of beer was ready. However, like Lindsay said, the Catholic Church wasn't having any of that. So the idea of a witch was perpetuated from those traits in order to demonize them (pun intended).

Another delightful story that took place behind the scenes of the 1939 version is that after Margaret came to the set after taking a medical leave from her burns, the very next scene she was to film was where the Witch flies over the Emerald City - the Surrender Dorothy thing. She absolutely refused to do it, getting a bad vibe about it. So, her stunt double jumped in to do the scene, and the broomstick ducking exploded.

Interesting production note from The Wiz: John Badham was originally slated to direct The Wiz, but became interested in another project instead. So, instead of reneging on his contract, he contrived to get himself fired by suggesting that the entire movie be filmed from the perspective of Dorothy (played by Diana Ross) in effect, all but removing Ross from the film, as the audience would never see anything but her hands and arms. Needless to say, this went over like a lead balloon, and Badham was released to go onto his other project. A little indie prod called Saturday Night Fever.

One interesting thing to note about why the 1939 movie is what we remember of The Wicked Witch of the West is that for the longest time the collection of Oz related narratives written by Baum were considered "lesser fiction" and "pointless drivel" by the head of the American Library Association (ALA), a woman who basically controlled by way of her opinions and head position the lists of books acceptable to be on shelves for child consumption. She never liked the books themselves, and, when she gained her position, she placed a ban on the books for reasons of "they are pointless and ridiculous." Because of this, in the late 20s to about the 50s to 60s no one had an actual Oz book to reference. Therefore, the 1939 film actually became the Wonderful Wizard of Oz the world knew because most people who read the books as children had either grown up and did not care or did not truly remember them when compared to the cinematic masterpiece of The Wizard of Oz. Likely, the aesthetic of the witch from the book was too cartoonish and ridiculous for her to be considered an antagonist for the film, so the aesthetic was changed along with aging up all characters so that the stakes were much higher as a movie's should be.
