Universal's Wicked has overtaken the studio's own Mamma Mia! to become the biggest stage musical adaptation of all time worldwide. The global cume through Sunday is an estimated $634.4M, of which $424.2M is from domestic and $210.2M from the international box office.

I honestly don’t like the music to wicked, historically. Badly mixed and annoying to me.

I really enjoyed this movie, especially as it seemed to not be insanely bluscreeded and they seemed to trust the performers more than any other modern movie musicals beyond in the heights and tick tick boom (both LMM ventures). I hope the Disney driven, hyper-autotuned crap goes away as a result.
