Have You Heard of "Oz: The Great and Powerful"?

Who didn't love "The Wizard of Oz" as a child? And who doesn't still love it now? Seriously.

What's not to love about Dorothy, Toto, the Tin Man, the Lion, the Scarecrow and the wonderful spin-off "Wicked"?

And who can forget that horrible poppy field and those dreadful flying monkeys and a witch melting just coz of water?

Well, in case you haven't heard yet, there's a new Oz film in the making. That's right. And guess who's starring in it!!!

AMAZING cast, if I may say so myself. In a nutshell, "Oz: The Great and Powerful" is a prequel to "The Wizard of Oz" and revolves around how Oscar Diggs became the wonderful Wizard of Oz himself. The film is set to be released in Spring 2013.

And I am sooo excited!!! Did I mention that Sam Raimi will be directing it? O. M. G. I think I am more excited about this than I am for "The Great Gatsby" now... if that's even possible. What do you think of the cast and the idea for the movie? Good move? Bad move? Share your thoughts! :)
