Oz the Great and Powerful Trailer

The beautiful poster for the upcoming Sam Raimi film Oz the Great and Powerful was released last week before Comic Con, one of the major comic and film conventions in the industry. During the Disney press conference, the first trailer was officially released for the James Franco-starring The Wizard of Oz prequel.

I like that they are keeping the black-and-white-to-color transformation aesthetic from The Wizard of Oz with this one. Oz itself looks utterly fantastical. Bright colors, strange creatures, unusual geometry, all things that will make for a captivating experience. I hope that they don't overdo the 3D gimmickry, but I must say that this looks impressive.
