History WMG / OzTheGreatAndPowerful

[[WMG: Evanora and [[StarWars Emperor Palpatine]] are related]]

* Though the book's canon, (which was later retconned, the books are infamous for inconsistancy) stated that when Oz arrived he overthrew Ozma and took over Oz for himself. But since Baum seemed to have abandoned that plotline after a while I think it's all open to interpretation of what really went on. Meaning this movie could be a true prequel to the books.
** In Literature/TheMarvelousLandOfOz, it is said that Oz sent baby Ozma to Mombi.

[[WMG: Creator/PeterJackson is going to do a movie based on ''PeterPan'']]

[[WMG: This movie actually takes place in the same continuity as ''[[Theatre/{{Wicked}}'': it's all a guilt-fueled hallucination of the Wizard's.]]

[[WMG: It's all a guilt-fueled hallucination of the Wizard's]]

After [[Theatre/{{Wicked}} Elphaba's]] [[spoiler:apparent death]] and his removal from power, he begins to fantasize about a world where he truly is heroic and "wonderful", he gets the pretty girl, and the Wicked Witch of the West is truly wicked and [[spoiler:not his daughter]]. Unable to come to terms with the real world, his mind eventually breaks and that's when this movie takes place.

[[WMG: Oz is also [[TheMusicMan Proffeser Harold Hill]]]]

We never actually see Theodora's skin ''turning'' green, her nails becoming long and sharp, etc. Rather, she falls to the floor behind a table and a green, taloned hand reaches up to claw its surface. It's just as plausible that Theodora's original body slipped into a magical coma, and a corporeal embodiment of her new DrunkOnTheDarkSide aspect - the Wicked Witch of the West - manifested out of thin air ''above'' her unconscious form. The two evil witches hid her old body somewhere safe and secret, where it remained until Dorothy melted the "Wicked Witch" manifestation, breaking the spell and waking up Theodora's old self in the process.

[[WMG: Dorothy actually ''did'' remove the spell on Theodora instead of killing her.]]

/Hence, the [=WWotW=]'s parting line in the 1939 film says nothing whatsoever about her ''dying'', but rather:
