You’re a bigger (no pun intended) for rating Wicked that high, but again one of the few movies I don’t like is Wizard of Oz.
No musical hating, btw

you mean The Wiz?
i guess i'd recommend to you and your misses The Wild Robot. it's good for kids (also very honest on the brutality of nature) and for parents
i have to +1 that one as well, i see, to 9

+ La corona di ferro (aka The Iron Crown), 1941 - enjoyable and nicely shot, 8
+ I vampiri (aka Lust of the Vampire), 1957 - more mad scientist in a castle being investigated by the local journalist than a vampire film, but enjoyable, 7
+ 巨神兵東京に現わる (aka Giant God Warrior Appear... - Japanese short which essentially is just a CGI giant god warrior appearing in Tokyo and causing ruination, 7
+ 西荻窪駅徒歩20分2LDK敷礼2ヶ月ペット不可 (... - a fun animated short wherein a young woman wakes up to discover she's a cockroach, and attempts to let her boyfriend know, who then chases her (believing it's a cockroach) around their apartment. Inventively animated, 8
+ Pyschogenic Fugue, 2016 - John Malkovitch portrays David Lynch and several iconic Lynch characters in this short film made especially for the David Lynch Foundation, 7½
+ Girls at 12, 1975 - short documentary by Joyce Chopra, which follows a small group of girls in the mid 70s as they discuss life, boys and their discovery of gender inequality, 8
+ Wonka, 2023 - very uninspired songs, a plotline that seemed so pointless, but the charm of the actors worked and even as I knew shameless audience manipulation was going on, I shed a tear a end, 7

+ What Happens Later, 2023 - Meg Ryan directs herself opposite David Duchovny in this two-hander; at a small airport during a storm delay, two people who shared a major relationship during and after college bump into one another and play out the usual analyses, hurt, reconciliation, understanding, etc, 7
+ Nutcrackers, 2024 - A gem of a film, a well-worn plot that is elevated by the cast, the setting, and the natural offbeat naturalism of it all. Really enjoyed it, 8
+ Drive-Away Dolls - Hilarious and the nods to Henry James actually make complete sense; like Nutcrackers it had a mainly negative reception - both films have plotlinles that on paper are very old hat, but in both cases it is the characters and the individual situations and flourishes which elevate them, 8
+ The Apprentice, 2024 - Sebastian Stan and Jeremy Strong are fantastic, both inhabit their roles impeccably, like a Sith Lord and his apprentice. The choice of filmstock and techniques that recall the periods in which the film is set (early 1970s to late 1980s) are most effective, a fascinating and singular film, 8
