What do you get when you take a kickass movie like Army of Darkness, subtract chainsaws, deadites and cocky bravado, then add magic, witches and bullshit? You get Oz the Great and Powerful, a huge recycled piece of shit that will make you angry, bored then angry because you're bored. While watching Oz in a theater, I noticed so many similarities to Army of Darkness that I looked around to see if anyone else was as outraged as I was. Nope. Turns out I was the only person in the theater who wasn't an idiot. It's practically a shot-for-shot remake of AoD. Don't believe me?

Here's the proof:

I had a longer list of similarities between the two movies, but watching any more of Oz would have resulted in suicide by (auto-erotic) asphyxiation. I'll be doing more comparisons between similar movies, books, video games, in the future. My ideas are way better than yours, so if you have an idea for a comparison, unless it's something obscure that you think nobody has ever thought of, don't email me. I've probably already thought of it because I've thought of everything.
