The more I keep working on this stuff, the more I regret not seeing the Wicked Musical (It was in Toronto last summer too. What A dope I am!) I wonder if it's still ongoing?
Link is pret-ty in green! Interesting what he is riding. Is there actually a vehicle something like that or is it completely your imagination?
Lina as shoes with an attitude is so funny and original! Love the comment about Sylphiel's act of mercy. So far this is the best OZ parody I've seen in a long time!
"Wicked" was very good, but ultimately sad. His other books based on fairy tales are strange, ironic, and interesting as well. I've yet to read the sort of sequel to "Wicked", "Son of a Witch." (or maybe it's "Son of the Witch". Guess I otta look it up.
The vehicule is an optical mouse. (It's even written Evilptical on it) ^^
I hope this parody will be good. Since I just finished reading wicked, i'm sortoff mixing elements from that novel, the musical, the film and the original fairy tales. The whole "Ozma and the Wizard fightig for the throne" thing is a quotation from the Wicked novel.
Elphie is by far one of the characters I have enjoyed the most in a novel for a long time.
Duh! I should have recognized it as a mouse, since I've been using the things since 1984, around when the first Mac came out. [Hits head on desk]
Yup, I recognized the novel quotation. "Wicked" is one of my favorite novels of the 21st century. That Oz books (along with the Alice books) were my very favorites when I was an elementary school kid might have something to do with it,too.
My youngest brother has a thing about the movie's Wicked Witch. One Halloween, he dressed himself up, face putty, green makeup, dress, hat, etc. as the Witch. He had the voice down pat. We've sent each other WWW cards and small stuff for years.
