I want it to be good, although my family suggests that it could still be a win if it is Mansquito bad.
Who among us can ignore the allure of really funny math puns?

The effects may make quite a difference to the experience. I already know I'm going to be in trouble because I'm going to be wondering why Temperance Brennan is in Oz.

Woe to the fucking wicked.

Now that could be a nifty, if trippy, fic.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
Except it's not Temperance; it's her sister.

It's nice to see some brave pretenders trying to make it interesting.
But they look enough alike one might still think Tempe even if it's the other one.

Woe to the fucking wicked.
There's a Wicked Witch of the East and Wicked Witch of the West parallel in there.

Matthew Gilbert at the Boston Globe really doesn't like "Tin Man"
That review was REALLY weird. He didn't actually talk about anything but how the new one aped the movie (in the absolue snarkiest terms - as if doing any version of the WoO was heresy) until the last paragraph, where he didn't provide a single example towards the charges he was leveling. It made me think unfortunate thoughts about a certain stereotype who is way WAY too overprotective of Judy Garland and her legacy.

I thought the review was really funny. t shrug
I think that when you change things like calling the new place "the O.Z.", you're pretty much asking for people to focus on the "clever" ways in which the remake apes the original.
