The LEGO Group and Universal have unveiled seven new LEGO Wicked sets inspired by Universal Pictures' upcoming film, Wicked: For Good. The new LEGO Wicked: For Good sets will be available from September 1.

The wait for 'Wicked: For Good' continues on, but we have our first look at some of the merchandise that's on the way as the November release approaches.

Amazon Elphaba Thropp is back… with a slightly different look in 'Wicked: For Good.' This doll comes with a movie-accurate black gown and patterned cape, plus her magic broomstick, pointy hat, and a copy of the Grimmerie. Amazon The third and final 'Wicked: For Good' doll to be revealed now is a preorder exclusive to Amazon.

Maybe I'm A Dum-Dum, But These 48 Movie Moments Make Nooo Sense To Me
🚨🚨WARNING: If you want to skip spoilers for Sinners, skip past the first three.🚨🚨 1. I just saw Sinners and I absolutely loved it — but a few things bothered me. They talk about how vampires can't survive sunlight, and say they just need to last until morning. But Remmick is very obviously seen in the daytime in his first scene. He does seem to be steaming and burned (how does the couple not notice this???), but how does he survive? Also, couldn't the vampires just hide inside when the sun comes out? Why don't any of them do that at the end? 2. They also establish that vampires need to be invited in. We see Mary being invited in after she's a why doesn't she ever come back in to attack them? Doesn't she have free rein to enter now? 3. They also establish that bullets won't hurt the vampires. But later in the film, they do? Especially during the big fight scene. I'm guessing they didn't get wooden or silver bullets on short notice. 4. At the end of Joker: Folie à Deux, it's suggested that the man who kills Arthur is now the Joker. this a Joker origin story? Doesn't it kind of defeat the purpose of both films if Arthur isn't even actually the Joker? 5. In Knives Out, why doesn't Blanc just ask Marta who killed Harlan? He knows she can't lie, and it's later established that he knew she witnessed something, based on the blood on her shoes. 6. In Barbie, there appears to be only one Stereotypical Barbie. There are no more Margot Robbie Barbies, and I don't even remember seeing another blonde Barbie similar to her. And it seems like a one-Barbie to one-human ratio, considering how much Gloria affects Barbie (and considering that if every sad kid with a Barbie affected Stereotypical Barbie, the events of the film would've happened far earlier). about every other person in the world who has a classic Barbie? Shouldn't there be a ton of multiples walking around Barbie Land? 7. In Wicked, how does Madam Morrible get her powers, and how can she read the Grimmerie if she's not the one from the prophecy? It seems that Elphaba has her powers through being part human (🚨SPOILER ALERT: the wizard being her father🚨), and that's also why she can read the Grimmerie. But Morrible says she can read a few is she part human too? Could she fulfill the prophecy, too? They also act like it's shocking that the book opens for her, which makes me wonder how the Wizard opened it in the first place. 8. In Don't Worry Darling, I have so many questions about everything being a simulation, and I still don't understand why they didn't just make it so the women were brainwashed and actually in some fake '50s neighborhood in the desert. Like, why would killing a simulation version of anyone kill them in real life? In what way does Alice touching a wall in the desert bring her out of the simulation? Why does Bunny stay with her kids, knowing they're just fake simulations? How did Jack explain Alice's disappearance from her job, family, and friends? And how does he feed her??? 9. In About Time, there's this whole big thing made about how Tim can't travel back in time after his third child is born, as it might risk changing the child. Except to say goodbye, they go back to Tim's childhood, risking all of Tim's kids. Sure, they're careful not to change if they can go back as long as they don't change anything, then why does it matter if it's before or after Tim's third kid is born? Can't he keep going back to visit his dad after, as long as nothing is changed? 10. In A Quiet Place, if the monsters don't attack near the waterfall because the waterfall drowns out the sound of humans, WHY DID THEY NOT BUILD A HOUSE BY THE WATERFALL??? 11. This has bothered me since I was a kid. In movies like The Santa Clause, where Santa is real but parents don't believe in him, where do the parents think the gifts their kids get are from??? Like okay, maybe they buy the kids some gifts, but surely if Santa is real, there are some gifts on Christmas morning that they don't recognize? 12. In Back to the Future, HOW THE HELL DO MARTY'S PARENTS NOT REMEMBER MEETING THEIR SON WHEN THEY WERE IN HIGH SCHOOL? Obviously, they wouldn't know it at the time, but when Marty got older and started to look a lot like their old friend (who was also named Marty!!!), wouldn't they be suspicious? 13. And why is Doc in such a rush at the end of the film to get "back to the future"? Can't they travel to the exact moment they want, no matter when they leave? And why is it "back" if Marty's never been to the future — in fact, he just came back from the past? 14. Also, I refuse to believe that with the amount Marty changed the past in the film, he and his siblings were all still born. With the changes he made, who says his parents had sex at the exact same time and that exact same sperm won out? 15. I also refuse to believe Indiana Jones survived a nuclear blast by HIDING IN A FRIDGE in Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull. He's not even injured! 16. Or that one shot could destroy the Death Star in Star Wars Episode I: A New Hope. 17. Or that Sarah could become an expert on quantum physics in Palm Springs, especially considering no notes she takes would transfer day-to-day, any any online class she takes is going to start at Day 1 (sure, she can access later materials, but she's not going to get the benefit of going through a whole course with a professor). Hulu 18. In Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald, they claim Credence is Dumbledore's brother, which makes no sense, considering how young Credence is. Albus' father was imprisoned, and his mother was dead before Credence was born. Then in the next film, they change it so that he's Albus' nephew? Warner Bros. Pictures / Via 19. The reveal in Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them that Percival Graves is actually Grindelwald makes no sense, either. It's been confirmed that he didn't use Polyjuice Potion, which means he actually nabbed a leading role at the Ministry of Magic his appearance and then working his way up? Sure, he may have used some magic to help him, but it feels as if the Ministry would have at least some safeguards against that. It just seems like an unnecessarily long way to get power rather than just using Polyjuice Potion or something. Warner Bros. / Via 20. In Cruella, how does Estella make Cruella the recipient of her fortune? How does Cruella legally exist at all? And why doesn't anyone believe the Baroness' claims that they're the same person when they look exactly alike and are both fashion designers who knew the Baroness? Walt Disney Pictures / Via 21. And how does the Baroness not recognize they're the same person earlier? She's been working closely with Estella! Sure, Estella is wearing a mask at first, but she soon ditches that for eye makeup. Walt Disney Pictures / Via 22. Actually, that goes for any character who is hidden with a mask. Come on, you're telling me the eye masks from The Incredibles are an effective disguise? Pixar / Via 23. What about when the disguise is Clark Kent, looking at you. Dovemead Ltd. / Via 24. In Spider-Man: No Way Home, there are three versions of Spider-Man, all of whom look different and have slightly different stories, despite having the same name and general identity. Why does every other Marvel variant (except Loki, I guess?) have either identical versions or entirely different identities (i.e., Captain America being Peggy in another timeline)? Marvel / Via I guess this comes from the "Spider-Man can be anyone" idea, all Peter Parker (at least in the live-action films). How come they look different? 25. I never totally understood the explanation for why this was the only way to save everyone in Spider-Man: Far From Home. Can't Strange just make everyone from other universes forget about Spider-Man? Or, sure, make everyone in every universe forget Peter Parker is Spider-Man, but why does that mean MJ and Ned, etc., will forget about Peter Parker, too? Also, does this mean everyone in Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield's Spider-Man universes will forget about them, too? TBH, I don't even really understand why people who know Spider-Man is Peter Parker were pulled into Tom's universe to begin with. Why would Strange's spell do that? Marvel / Via 26. It always bothers me that other Avengers don't come to help when there are world-ending events in specific Marvel films. Sure, post- Endgame, Thor's off-world, so is Captain Marvel, Shuri's far where is Ant-Man? The Wasp? The Eternals? Bruce and Clint have basically "retired" despite being perfectly able to help. Sam is close by. Bucky's a politician, for some reason, but could still help. Shang-Chi Marvel / Via 27. Sticking with Marvel, it's established that in at least one timeline, Wanda does have kids with Vision. But how? Does he have sperm? Isn't he, like, AI? Marvel / Via 28. And I know we're dealing with vampire fantasy here, but how does Bella get pregnant in Twilight: Breaking Dawn Part I if Edward doesn't have blood? How does Edward even have an erection? Temple Hill Entertainment / Via 29. Relatedly, Jacob's attraction to Bella is apparently due to Renesmee's egg inside her. Why wasn't he also attracted to Edward's sperm, then? I know that's slightly different, as Edward wouldn't have had that sperm inside him from birth, but I assume his body stopped generating new sperm when he became a vampire? Even if he didn't, wouldn't there have been a period close to him having sex with Bella during which he had the sperm inside him? Why wasn't Jacob all over him then? Temple Hill Entertainment / Via 30. Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban is my favorite Harry Potter movie, but I will never understand the whole time travel thing. The dementors are set to suck out Harry's soul, until he's saved by his future self, as he later goes back in time. could he survive the dementor's kiss in order to even get to the point where he goes back in time? He has to have gone back in time in order to be able to go back in time in the first place? Make it make sense!!! Warner Bros. / Via 31. Also, why do Fred and George never notice Peter Pettigrew sleeping with Ron every night on the Marauder's Map? Warner Bros. / Via 32. In Star Wars: A New Hope, how the hell does Anakin/Darth Vader not know he has a son? They go to great lengths to conceal Leia's identity, but Luke is literally raised on Anakin's home planet by Anakin's step-brother. Oh, and they live near Obi-Wan Kenobi, who has changed his name to Ben Kenobi. Even Luke makes the connection that Obi-Wan is Ben, and he knows nothing at this point. Lucasfilm / Via 33. This is a small one, but are we really supposed to believe Obi-Wan aged this much in nine years? Lucasfilm / Disney+ / Via 34. We can't talk about Star Wars without mentioning this scene from The Rise of Skywalker. HOW DID PALPATINE SURVIVE??? This explanation is not enough!!! Lucasfilm / Disney 35. Why does everyone have British accents in so many movies that take place in France, like Les Misérables and The Phantom of the Opera? Relativity Media / Odyssey Entertainment / Via 36. Relatedly, why is John Smith the only one with an American accent in Pocahontas, especially considering he's just come to America, and the modern American accent doesn't exist yet? Disney / Via 37. I'm a massive Beauty and the Beast fan, but a few things have always bothered me. First of all, the Beast is shown as a full adult when the curse is put on him. The spell states that if he doesn't find love by his 21st year, he'll remain a beast forever. Lumiere later says they've been under the spell for 10 years, meaning the prince was 11 when he was turned into the Beast. Not only does that contradict how he's depicted in the opening sequence, but it feels pretty harsh to punish an 11-year-old for being rude to a stranger. Also, if the Beast/prince was 11, where were his parents? There is no mention ever of a king or queen. Disney / Via 38. The townspeople, who don't live all that far, don't seem to have any knowledge of royalty nearby. And who were they the royals of??? France? Let's say the townspeople were spelled to forget about the prince and his family — who do they think rules them?? How is France doing without any kind of rule? Or are the prince's parents off somewhere in Paris, ruling while they just leave their son to his own devices? And if the townspeople don't know about the castle or DO THEY KNOW HOW TO GET TO IT IN "THE MOB SONG"? Disney / Via 39. The timeline also seems VERY wonky. Maurice appears to arrive home on Belle's first night in the castle. He quickly leaves again to find her. He gets lost and sick in the woods, and Belle goes to him, ending her time confined in the castle and jump-starting the climax of the film. This can only have been a few days, considering A) it didn't seem like Maurice had enough supplies to last long in the wilderness alone, and B) Le Fou is posted up outside Belle and Maurice's home the entire time they're gone. Gaston tells him not to move, and it's clear from his being half-frozen that he hasn't. seasons are shown from the castle, and there's a whole Christmas movie suggesting the holidays happened while Belle was in the castle, too. Disney / Via 40. And don't get me started on Cinderella's shoe. Why doesn't it disappear with the rest of the things from the Fairy Godmother? Disney / Via 41. And wouldn't plenty of girls fit the show? Are her feet really that small? Disney / Via 42. But most even do the whole "if the shoe fits" thing in the first place??? HE SAW HER FACE! Disney / Via 43. How can Rapunzel swim in Tangled? She's never been outside her tower! Disney / Via 44. One more Disney one, and it's a come Ariel doesn't write a message to Eric in The Little Mermaid? She can write, as seen when she signs her name! Disney / Via 45. I know this is a common one, but I have to say it. Why did the eagles not show up to help earlier in The Lord of the Rings? New Line Cinema / Via 46. This is in more than one film, but it always bothers me. How come humans can breathe in space in so many movies? I'll call out Marvel movies in particular — let's go with Avengers: Infinity War. Peter and Tony have no superpowers, and they appear to breathe in space just fine. Yes, they have the suits, but their heads are out. Marvel / Via 47. In Avengers: Endgame, the whole Cap-going-back-in-time thing makes no sense to me. When he goes to be with Peggy, that timeline's Cap is still alive. Does main timeline Cap just leave that timeline's Cap in the ice? Also, how does Cap get back to the main timeline at the end? He wouldn't have just aged into the present, because he's in a whole different timeline now. He doesn't appear on the platform, either. Don't even get me started on how the TVA would let all this happen. Marvel / Via 48. And finally, I'll end on the most classic. WHY DOES ROSE NOT MAKE ROOM FOR JACK ON THE DOOR??? There was room! I feel like they barely try! Paramount Pictures Now it's your turn – what plot holes or points bother you? Let us know in the comments or via this form!
