Episode Synopsis
Ariana Grande and Cynthia Erivo take center stage in Wicked: For Good, the highly anticipated finale to the blockbuster musical saga. On this episode of The Moviegoers Society, Sean Tajipour, the Mayor of Nerdtropolis, and Drew Munhausen dive into Jon M. Chu’s bold return to Oz — exploring how dazzling performances collide with a chaotic second act that still struggles to shake the musical’s long-standing flaws.They break down the film’s biggest strengths, from the emotional punch of “For Good” and “No Good Deed” to Jonathan Bailey’s standout turn as Fiyero, while also digging into the messy pacing, rushed story threads, and expanded world-building that make Act II such a challenge to adapt for the screen. Sean and Drew also discuss the film’s approach to Dorothy, the visual design of Oz, and whether this finale ultimately sticks the landing for fans of the original musical.📽 Follow us on Letterboxd:https://letterboxd.com/dmunhausen/https://letterboxd.com/nerdtropolis/Visit Nerdtropolis.comFacebookInstagramTwitter
