      Musicals are massively popular. People go to them to get drunk and sing along too loud, and maybe have a fight.

        I have no problem with musicals.

        Wicked was published in 1995. Making this movie might have made sense up to 2009, but now? It’s a sentimental cash-grab. Same reason they’re making Gladiator 2.

      I did ask for it. Not holding my breath thou.

      Also I wanted a series, could have been a 1 or 2 season arch and then Netflix or whoever could flail off into other characters and deeper cannon and non-cannon lore, and I would have had my fill and moved on.
