And so, Spider-Man mastermind Sam Raimi was recruited to bring to life the origin story of another one of Oz’s most iconic citizens. This is 2013’s OZ THE GREAT AND POWERFUL.

Frank Baum’s remaining Oz books in 1954, Walt Disney Productions began work on a live action film starring the teen stars of “The Mickey Mouse Club,” but plans quickly stalled. It wouldn’t be until the 80’s that the House of Mouse would try once more to bring Baum’s wonderful world to the big screen and the resulting film would prove to be one of the most divisive and infamous children’s films of that generation. This is 1985’s RETURN TO OZ. Nick and Scott dive deeper into the world of Ozma, The Gump and The Nome King in a darkly delightful episode of FRANCHISOGRAPHY Become a Premier Tier PATREON [https://www.patreon.com/dgp] supporter to hear our “Franchise Potential” companion podcast, plus bonus podcasts each week including Dueling Genre Tonight hosted by Nick & Scott!

By the late 70’s, Motown mastermind Berry Gordy would attempt to adapt the musical for the silver screen, bringing together a generational collection of talent including legends Diana Ross, Michael Jackson and Richard Pryor. Lonely schoolteacher Dorothy Gale rarely leaves her neighborhood of Harlem, but soon finds herself in the fantastical land of Oz. With the help of a dancing scarecrow, a Coney Island Tin Man and one mean ole’ lion, the timid Dorothy finds her voice and a 70’s new age sense of self worth in this box office failure turned cult classic. It’s 1978’s THE WIZ! Ease on down the road with Scott and Nick on all-new FRANCHISOGRAPHY!

L. Frank Baum’s children’s book was already a beloved American classic by the time MGM first broke ground on their musical adaptation of the book in 1938, but previous adaptations of Baum’s novels had flopped both critically and at the box office.

En fantastisk app med et enormt stort udvalg af spændende podcasts. Podimo formår virkelig at lave godt indhold, der takler de lidt mere svære emner. At der så også er lydbøger oveni til en billig pris, gør at det er blevet min favorit app.

Rigtig god tjeneste med gode eksklusive podcasts og derudover et kæmpe udvalg af podcasts og lydbøger. Kan varmt anbefales, om ikke andet så udelukkende pga Dårligdommerne, Klovn podcast, Hakkedrengene og Han duo 😁 👍
Podimo er blevet uundværlig! Til lange bilture, hverdagen, rengøringen og i det hele taget, når man trænger til lidt adspredelse.
