Did you take them yourself? @They Call Me MR Wilkes

No, not mine.  Just demonstrating the importance of movie advertising,  which benefits all parties involved!

Some posters may think studios make films for charitable purposes.

Dont worry people this will fade away in due time which will be replaced by something else shoved down our throats.

Money talks.

NBC news: Mattel’s ‘Wicked’ movie dolls mistakenly list pornography site on packaging

In a statement, Mattel said it regrets the "unfortunate error" and has taken action to fix it.

There’s a website listed on the toy box, but instead of linking to the webpage for the movie adaptation of the Tony-winning musical, starring Cynthia Erivo and Ariana Grande, Mattel has mistakenly listed the URL to a pornographic website.

The film’s official website is WickedMovie.com, but the address listed on the plastic packaging for the special edition dolls, created in partnership with Universal Pictures, directs to a page that requires users to be 18 years or older to enter.

In a statement regarding the erroneous web address, Mattel said: “Mattel was made aware of a misprint on the packaging of the Mattel ‘Wicked’ collection dolls, primarily sold in the U.S., which intended to direct consumers to the official  WickedMovie.com landing page."                       

"We deeply regret this unfortunate error and are taking immediate action to remedy this. Parents are advised that the misprinted, incorrect website is not appropriate for children."

"Consumers who already have the product are advised to discard the product packaging or obscure the link and may contact Mattel Customer Service for further information.”

in the original book Wizard of Oz, there were 4 witches.  North, South, East & West.  Dorothy visited 3 of the 4 places. I haven't seen the play, but the music seem kind of bland.  Yes, the saga is two movies long.  I'm not a fan of Ariana Grande.  She seems full of herself.  But she's technically a great singer.  She's been away from the spotlight lately, so the film's another announcement of her.  She has a reputation for being nasty to fans.

I like the soundtrack, but I never saw the play in person. The thread got me thinking about the movie version of "Into the Woods." I thought, "Shouldn't that be coming out soon?" Yeah. It came out in 2014. Apparently, I missed it. I thought it was still to come and it's been out for ten years. I may have fallen a bit behind in my musical watching.
