Small observation but the scene where the Galeforce led by Fiyero chase Elphaba and she hides in the tree, I've always felt he sensed Elphaba, he for sure she was there but if you watch closely he looks at the tree where she is hiding so now i think he saw her hiding in the tree but none of the others did so he purposely pointed his gun in the opposite direction and orders the Galeforce away from her.

This was important because it showed Fiyero protecting her and if the rest of the Galeforce hadn't been there he probably would have left with her then but he couldn't so he had to pretend to hate like everyone else and he needed the Galeforce to trust him, so they wouldn't become suspicious of him, that's why he says " we must not rest until we capture that wicked witch."

Thoughts?

She unlocks her magic at the end of the 2nd movie and starts her magical journey

Every witch seems to have a magical specialty in the movie

Elphaba has Gravity manipulation and the gift of prophecy

Morrible has weather and some kind of transportation magic (her storm basically being a portal to earth)

What do you think Glinda's will be?

I'm thinking she'll either be a weather(or general elemental) witch like Morrible she seems to have an affinity for the wind

Or

Illusion which makes sense for her original role in making things look better in oz than they actually were and now they could be used to show Oz what it could be

What do you think?

I’ve seen it once before in the summer of 2021. 5 years and 2 movies later, I’m standing in the exact same theater waiting for the 7:00pm start time! House opens at 6:00.

Edit: Out of Act 1, everything’s so good so far. Defying Gravity is still stellar although the floating effect isn’t as mind blowing the second time around.

Edit 2: Still a great show
