Hight difference solution: Elphaba is taller, but Glinda is always wearing heels, so she is functionally taller and everyone believes she is taller. Only when they are going to bed Glinda is barefoot she becomes shorter than Elphaba!
when I saw Wicked live for the first time, a lesbian couple was sitting behind me, and throughout the show I could hear them quietly saying, "kiss!" shoutout to those two they made the experience so much fun
“Mom can you buy me this book? Coley from my class is reading it” “Of course sweetie” “Mooooom, can you explain me this” Honestly I’m surprised your parents weren’t called
Whitevwomen, you are tone deaf. Black women DO NOT want YOU. Are are dangerous for their health and safety. Rwmmber the I choose the bear on Tik Tok??? White women are the bear to black women.
12:41 The actor that inteprets Boq in the 2024 movie is the broadway actor for the Sponge Bob musical, that's why there's so many Wicked x Sponge Bob!!!
God this movie CHANGED ME. Haven't seen the original musical before the movie, I was stunned I watched so many versions of the musical and it is just AUGH I LOVE GELPHIE
As someone who has been more of a fyiero Glinda elphaba ot3 fan for the last 5 or so years, I am ALL HERE for the gelphie/wicked renaissance that the movie brought on. I’m hoping more people see the thrupple vision once part two drops, but so long as it’s still as sapphic as the first half I’m happy!
Omg I went into the theatre not knowing anything about wicked (I live under various emo band famdom rocks) and when I went to check out the fandom I was honestly so shocked there wasn't more ot3 fics and art of them, it seems so obvious??? They're all so smitten with each other
As someone cursed to ship an unpopular/underrated ot3 in every fandom I have ever been in, I have only seen an ot3 take the top ship in a fandom ONCE. People just don’t understand the brilliance of fiyero’s undying loyalty and open heart tempering Glinda’s ruthlessly machevelian nature and elphaba’s passion for justice. Very much a ship where ghelphie is girl-bossing and foyer is just cheering them on in the background. He brings them snacks as they talk about committing hostile government takeovers. Anyway, since you’re new, if you got the ot3 vibes than you will either adore or get wrecked emotionally by the next movie.
15:08 someone please tell me what the other lesbian shows are 😭 I know arcane but the other two ?? Or any other recommendations pls I need the saphics 🧎♀️🙏
@@chailattemhmmthe anime is dungeon meshi and the characters are farcille :) i dont think theyre canon but theyre SUPER popular. and then the other show is called agatha all along and agathario is very much canon plus... another recommendation not from here, a show called yellowjackets. it has a canon lesbian couple and its women centric, plus an announcement to be even gayer in it's s3 that's coming soon🫶
16:27 tweet was so funny and so true. Rip Dorthy her only crime was being in the wrong place at the wrong time. While everyone else being a chaotic diaster and you have to live with the conseequence of them being a chaotic diaster.
8:00 idk if u noticed or not but that fanart image is a “Victorious” reference. Ariana’s character in Victorious portrayed Dorothy in an April Fools episode. The “Are you a good witch or a sandwich” is a line from that episode. The artist drew Ariana’s Glinda and Ariana’s Dorothy, who has as a pet goldfish named Tofu.
I remember seeing this movie with my fam, despite running into some hiccups such as a double seat purchase and traffic, I was blown away. There was also a group of girls (probably in middle school) bringing in a cardboard cutout of one of the stars in the movie-
this was just about the first gay pairing i love long before i ever knew i was gay and reading the book as a middle schooler way back in the day was eye opening, to say the least. so happy about its resurgence
I was 25 when Wicked was first published. All I know about the musical is that it exists, Vivziepop did an animated clip for Popular, and Kristen Chenowith was originally Galinda. All the stuff that's popped up because of the movie kind of makes me wanna see it.
As a Gelphie and Wicked stan for 9 years since seeing Wicked for the first time in 2015 on stage, and also Wicked changing my life and my entire view and outlook on my future... it fills me with so much joy that my darling fandom and favorite musical is finally on the big screen, and so are my beloved doomed yuri witches, after being on Broadway for over 20 years.. and my fandom is finally being realized.
Yesss gelphie / fiyeraba / OT3 multishippers RISE! I too am living for all the gelphie fanart in particular. Dabbling in fic too! I'm so glad you found the Doctor Who edits, they're perfect and I don't do tiktok so I wouldn't have seen them without this video! Lol!
I will be honest, I loved Glinda and Fiyero, but when he got to talk to Elphaba, I saw the connection. Love both couples. But throughout the whole movie, I kept on thinking... "Elphaba and Glinda are doomed lesbians, not gonna lie...."
I was really pleasantly surprised by how great the Wicked movie was. I was worried about it because there are a lot of really bad movie adaptations of musicals out there, and the marketing team made some questionable decisions, but it ended up being amazing. My only two complaints about it were that it split the two acts into separate movies so I’m going feral at the world’s longest intermission, and that there were too many dramatic pauses during “Defying Gravity.”
31:26 Believe it or not, Once Upon A Time makes a great crossover IP for a Wicked fic! ESPECIALLY a sapphic Wicked fic. That's cuz OUAT canon has adult!Dorothy Gale as sapphic and she gets together with adult!Red Riding Hood/Ruby (who is also bi & a werewolf). So I could see Dorothy & Ruby have some cute double date/shenanigan fics with Gelphie lol. Those two happen to get together in one of the last arcs of the show tho, so if you stopped at the Frozen arc, you wouldn't have seen that....Mulan was canonically sapphic on that show too. It's particularly notable cuz OUAT aired on ABC...the cable channel infamously owned by Disney (that's why Disney-specific characters like Elsa & Merida could be on it). But yeah, there was a point, tho marginally so, when Disney was cool with sapphic heroines....
The Transformers One x Wicked crossover fanworks have been fueling me this year. I've seen so many fanworks of D-16 & Orion doing the Wicked poster pose and it works so perfectly every time!
AAAAAAA ONE OF MY EARLIEST YURI!!!!!! 💚🩷 Every time I talk to one of my friends who’s heard “what is this feeling?” but hasn’t listened to wicked they’re always like “wait they’re not gay?!?!”
I mean. Wicked is based on a book. In the book they kiss, and elphaba is also intersex. The musical is the version where they tried to make it straight.
So I was watching the Olympics and the actresses for wicked came and I was like “a-are they gay am I missing something?” Cause like I already kinda knew there was something between Glinda and elphaba from the very little I knew of the musical but it was very fun to watch them come for the Olympics (I haven’t seen the movie or the musical yet but looks like it’ll be great when I hopefully do some day)
I saw the movie and it was AWESOME! I loved every second of it and my theater kid brain picked up on the songs which I knew I’d heard before. I haven’t seen the musical but I’m picking up the book from the library and a bunch of Greek Mythology books because I’m preparing for the Ithaca Saga by reading them so it makes it seem like it’s not over.
Okay so, what tag do I need for fics of 'what happened if Glinda had gone with elphaba'? Additionally, any recs? I want to see what happens when they work together and kick ass. (OT3 activism trio highly encouraged. I want to see them remake Oz and fix things)
Watching this video as Boq and Fiyerboq enjoyer was very stressful, my heartbeat genuinly went up when you came across my fav edit of them lol thanks for being nice 😭😭😭
I was aware of Wicked's existence in Broadway but for some reason, I was never really interested despite loving The Wizard of Oz and rewatching it an absurd amount of times. However, at the very aggressive advertising toward the movie, I decided I'd give it a shot and My God. Same day, idk what happened, but I had lesbian fanfiction in my notes app. Then I went to see it again with my friend "They can't do this to us!" were her words when she saw "to be continued" on the screen. Me too girl, me too. Oh, also, when my brother recently asked what I wanted for Christmas, I showed him an Amazon listing for the Wicked box set because I'd heard about some gay shit about the book idk, but wow. It looks like I'll certainly be in for a ride this Christmas...
I actually read the Wicked novel before the musical premiered, I think either summer 2002 or 2003. I had the opposite whiplash you did when folks started playing the soundtrack hahaha
@Wurmze no, at the time the tonal dissonance was more amusing than anything else, although I did enjoy the soundtrack a lot! I didn't get to see the actual show for a few years until there was a production near me, and by then I appreciated both works. I've never actually read any of the sequels, I might add them to my to-read list
I don’t think this is the right term, but my head canon is that they made it intentionally gay without being explicitly gay so that all the conservative wicked fans can come to the first movie, watch, think it’s straight, head to the second movie and find out it’s gay. I’m really hoping they make it explicitly gay in the second movie but somehow conceal that fact so we can get some conservatives shocked in the theaters. And the reason for this scheme I propose is money for this amazing movie via even more people watching
I was absolutely obsessed with any and all things related to the Wizard of Oz growing up (I wasn’t diagnosed with autism until I was an adult, but I now realise it was definitely my first special interest/hyperfixation). My parents, of course, knew of my obsession and after I’d read through all of the original Oz books by L. Frank Baum wrote multiple times, my dad saw the novelisation of Wicked being advertised at our local bookstore and bought it for me as a Christmas gift. I was probably 8 or 9 and it was right around when the musical was about to debut on Broadway. My dad was actually interested in reading the book as well because he had heard good things about it. Of course this meant that I only got about a chapter in before my parents yanked the book out of my hands and put it on the highest bookshelf until several years later when-after years of begging-they finally let me read it.
For favorite fanfics, I've been revisiting lightningprince's post-musical!Gelphie saga for a solid decade by now. It's just fascinating seeing a Glinda who is _still_ serving someone else's agenda, but this time it's Elphie's, and Glinda is still left alone with the world on her shoulders--and what that can _do_ to a person.
30:36 I READ THAT FIC AND ITS SO FREAKING GOOD! I recommend it to everyone :3 I cried, giggled and kicked my feet, and I had a very good time reading through it!
I haven’t seen the movie yet because I’m lazy and broke, but all of my friends have. And they’ve been singing the songs all. the. time. When I first heard What Is This Feeling? I thought it was a love song, so I’m glad I’m not the only one who thinks that :) ALSO WHAT IS THIS FEELING THE INTRO SOUND LIKE THAT ONE SEASON 3 MLP SONG IT COULD BE A DIFFERENT WICKED SONG BUT I SWEAR I’M NOT GOING CRAZY- so excited to see the movie and great video :D
I'm a recent Wicked fan My first exposure to Wicked was technically the book (my grandmother gave it to me when I was about 11), but after Elphaba left Shiz I realized that I was a little young for the book and didn't think about it tor a while 😅 (Tbh I didn't understand half of what was even happening since the vocabulary in the book was more complex than I was used to at 11) Earlier this year I finally went back and read the book the whole way through, and I understand the impact. It's hard to say I really enjoyed it, but I don't think it's a bad book by any means. First and foremost I love Elphaba and my heart just broke seeing her pain and struggle throughout the story I enjoyed the movie, and I'm trying to stay spoiler free and I'm desperately hoping that Elphaba survives in the second act. If it's anything like the book I know it doesn't get better though, and the story only becomes darker and more depressing
id never like heard abt wicked when i first watched it so i literally thought in “loathing” they were gonna have a cute like yuri song abt how they js realized they liked each other lol
I went to watch Wicked yesterday, somehow I've never heard more than a few songs from it and ... tbh, I was just feeling the aggressive lesbians vibes, glad I'm not insane
I remember watching the movie for the first time, (i have not seen the musical, but heard the first sentence of the loathing song at someone.) When they started singing i was like "yes, they feel something new! It's happening!" And then the feeling turns out to be hatred and im just like. "Oh... But .. lesbians?"
i was genuinely expecting this movie to be a massive flop after i saw how big the advertising budget was. like it seemed like they were betting so hard on people doing fandom shit with it that it made me immediatly assume it would be mass hated, cause thats what seems to always happen.
Gelphie is the “then they were roommates” vine realized
Oh my gosh, they were roommates.
Thought that when I saw the play 😂😂😂
LITERALLY
Agreed!!! 👍
OMG YESS
Hight difference solution: Elphaba is taller, but Glinda is always wearing heels, so she is functionally taller and everyone believes she is taller. Only when they are going to bed Glinda is barefoot she becomes shorter than Elphaba!
Real actually
this is like the Red, White & Royal Blue height difference in the book vs the movie adaptation debate all over again LOL
@@ling_a_bling lmao i thought the same thing
It’s canon, I was the pillow
Can I use this in a fanfic 😭
when I saw Wicked live for the first time, a lesbian couple was sitting behind me, and throughout the show I could hear them quietly saying, "kiss!" shoutout to those two they made the experience so much fun
The ONLY reason I'm okay with this Shipp is because Ariana Grande is Italian and they're non-white. White women are not trustworthy
omg me and my bestie were doing that too! 💀it was mainly just me though lol
Seeing a F/F ship be the most popular ship/have most fics in a fandom is so healing :3
Arcane is also there! 😁
And it wasn’t doom yuri all the way 😏
Weirdly, Gelphie has yet to do numbers on AO3, and I don't really understand why.

I didn't watch the series but why am I so happy ? 😭
Coley has had a packed upload schedule recently and I am HERE for it
She's feeding us so much content i love it

Honestly, "One Day in ____ Fandom" works as an ongoing series
I remember seeing this movie with my fam, despite running into some hiccups such as a double seat purchase and traffic, I was blown away. There was also a group of girls (probably in middle school) bringing in a cardboard cutout of one of the stars in the movie-
was it Jonothan Bailey (plays Fiyero)? He also plays Anthony Bridgerton in Bridgerton so cardboard cutout sounds about right lol
@ I DONT REMEMBER
this was just about the first gay pairing i love long before i ever knew i was gay and reading the book as a middle schooler way back in the day was eye opening, to say the least. so happy about its resurgence

You should, it’s really good!! I saw the stage show a few years ago and the movie tonight
I really hope that Gelphie helps raise up the wlw tag because It makes me sad to see it so low each year.
OK the daleks singing Defying Gravity (or rather Mavity) took me out.That is truly...something to behold.

Togachacko was flourishing for a good time when-- when the things happened, I'm going to cry in a corner now.
I love how you read every single thing. I’m dyslexic and this helped so much.
I just watched Wicked, and when the What Is This Feeling came on, I instantly knew you would make a video
When i saw the thumbnail I kept singing "yearning unadulterated yearning"
Elphaba is bisexual AND has two hands, she can hold both of her lovers close to her, no need for fighting, shippers
6.9k likes is basically the theme of the vid
11:39 OH MY GOD YES.
Also this is literally Cosmo and Wanda
this is exactly what my gelphie obsession needed, thank you
holding space with this video
I was literally just thinking yesterday ‘I wonder if coley make a video about gelphie?’ and here it is haha
30:36
I READ THAT FIC AND ITS SO FREAKING GOOD! I recommend it to everyone :3
I cried, giggled and kicked my feet, and I had a very good time reading through it!
Coley's villain origin story... the wicked book😅
10:00 as someone who has read the original novels, this is even funnier because THOSE BOOKS ARE W I L D L Y INCONSISTENT in terms of lore XDD
I haven’t seen the movie yet because I’m lazy and broke, but all of my friends have. And they’ve been singing the songs all. the. time. When I first heard What Is This Feeling? I thought it was a love song, so I’m glad I’m not the only one who thinks that :)
ALSO WHAT IS THIS FEELING THE INTRO SOUND LIKE THAT ONE SEASON 3 MLP SONG IT COULD BE A DIFFERENT WICKED SONG BUT I SWEAR I’M NOT GOING CRAZY-
so excited to see the movie and great video :D
Just saw the movie- absolutely loved it! :D
The way i clicked SO FAST ive been waiting im so excited thank you for making this video
I'm a recent Wicked fan
My first exposure to Wicked was technically the book (my grandmother gave it to me when I was about 11), but after Elphaba left Shiz I realized that I was a little young for the book and didn't think about it tor a while 😅
(Tbh I didn't understand half of what was even happening since the vocabulary in the book was more complex than I was used to at 11)
Earlier this year I finally went back and read the book the whole way through, and I understand the impact. It's hard to say I really enjoyed it, but I don't think it's a bad book by any means.
First and foremost I love Elphaba and my heart just broke seeing her pain and struggle throughout the story
I enjoyed the movie, and I'm trying to stay spoiler free and I'm desperately hoping that Elphaba survives in the second act.
If it's anything like the book I know it doesn't get better though, and the story only becomes darker and more depressing
id never like heard abt wicked when i first watched it so i literally thought in “loathing” they were gonna have a cute like yuri song abt how they js realized they liked each other lol
17:32 Oh boy, as an ALNST fan, I cannot stress enough how much we are DYING over here
Im so glad that the gelphie ship is getting the attention it deserves now that the movie is out :)
I went to watch Wicked yesterday, somehow I've never heard more than a few songs from it and ... tbh, I was just feeling the aggressive lesbians vibes, glad I'm not insane
rewatching this, i watched this last week and this was what pushed me to watch the movie hehe thank you coleyyy
one short day in the emerald skibidi ✨
What is wrong with you.
@@Byssa6 HELLO AJ
@ HEY DORI!
I remember watching the movie for the first time, (i have not seen the musical, but heard the first sentence of the loathing song at someone.)
When they started singing i was like "yes, they feel something new! It's happening!" And then the feeling turns out to be hatred and im just like. "Oh... But .. lesbians?"
They kissed in the book; they’re canonically into each other.
@tsifirakiehl4250
😮🤯😍
@@sophiachalloner8951 even Elphaba & Fiyero's son (titular "Son of A Witch") is canon bi
i was genuinely expecting this movie to be a massive flop after i saw how big the advertising budget was. like it seemed like they were betting so hard on people doing fandom shit with it that it made me immediatly assume it would be mass hated, cause thats what seems to always happen.
