Frightening Ideas

My Sigoth pointed me to a news release that Warner Brothers are planning a new release of the classic "The Wizard of Oz" by converting it to 3D Den of Geek

She then added that "... it could be worse,"

I asked how and she responded with probably the most evil thought I have ever heard, "George Lucas might get hold of it,"

She then segued into a description,
A certain Princess as Dorothy
The Munchkins all R2 Droids but the part of Toto would be played by 2-2
Yoda as the Wizard
The Emperor as the Wicked Witch
Obi Wan as Glinda
C3PO as the Tin Man
Chewbacca as the Cowardly Lion

but ... most terrible of all

Jar Jar Binks as the Straw Man

I thought they were already coming out with a prequel called "Straw Man". Did I dream that? HopeHoops Oct 2012 #1
