Dorothy of Oz (film)

Dorothy of Oz is a 2012 CG musical film based on Roger S. Baum's[1] book of the same name. It's also the latest in a long line of attempts to make another Oz film that can survive in the shadow of the 1939 classic. Instead of going down the Darker and Edgier route - we know how well that turned out - Dorothy seems to be trying to recreate the cheerful tone of its famous predecessor, if its concept art is anything to go by.

The official synopsis:

There is trouble in Oz and Dorothy is needed! With Glinda’s help, she and Toto return to Oz. Joined by her old friends the Scarecrow, the Tin Woodman, the Lion as well as exciting new characters, Dorothy sets out on a perilous journey to stop the crafty Jester from using the power of the Wicked Witch of the West’s wand to turn the people of Oz into puppets. That seems to be the least of Dorothy’s problems as her travels lead her straight into a treacherous maze, a cave full of very hungry dragons and an evil spell that could destroy the Yellow Brick Road. Dorothy has the daunting knowledge that it is up to her to stop Jester’s terrible plan. Audiences will welcome the return of the old Oz favorites and will love meeting new friends like Tugg a gruff talking boat and Wiser an owl with an unlucky attraction to molasses.

It Makes Sense in Context. Probably.

Not to be confused with the completely unrelated manhwa of the same name.
