Hi guys, an idea had struck me on writing this article. It is a comparison between Wicked and Maleficent, are you ready?
The Story
Although the film is like Wicked, but Maleficent is a darker and Gothic version of Wicked. Mainly because of how the film is portrayed.
Whereas Wicked is more lighter despite that it has some darker approach at some point of the film, so I would not label it as Gothic.
The Characters
Princess Aurora is very much like Glinda, because the 2 protagonists are optimistic and blonde-haired! They tried to persuade the 'Villain' (both Elphaba and Maleficent) to be good.
Fiyero is like Diablo, mainly because they are the guide and secondary characters in the story. They also provide comic relief to the story too!
Finally, King Stefan and the Wizard of Oz are similar because in both Sleeping Beauty and the Wizard of Oz respectively. They're good guys, but in both Wicked and Maleficent. They're bad guys!
No One Mourns The Wicked!
So, these are the similarities between Wicked and Maleficent, do you agree with the similarities? Do you have more? Write it down!

1) Josh Groban
I have always been a fan of him and after listening to his rendition of If I Can't Love Her from the musical version on Youtube. I personally felt that Josh should have been cast as the Beast!
2) Urs Buhler & Carlos Marin (Il Divo)
Just so you know that Carlos Marin had previously played the Beast in the Madrid production of Disney's Beauty and the Beast, and I personally felt that his voice is more suitable.
The second choice was his Swiss bandmate, Urs Buhler because he has both the looks and voice for both Prince Adam and the Beast.
3) Il Volo
The Jonas Brother version of Il Divo, they sound perfect and Prince Adam would definitely sound very operatic. Do you agree?

Here are my 3 choices, do you agree?
