The Sci-Fi channel reimagined The Wizard of Oz in more ways than one with the making of Tin Man. The mini series was a story of D.G. (Dorothy) who gets swept up by a tornado and taken back to the O.Z. (outer zone) where she is in search of the emerald to save the O.Z. from her sister Azkadillia and find her mother.

The tin man is an officer for Central City and he reminds us to have a heart. The zipperhead, Ambrose, has lost his brain due to Azkadillia having it removed to power her super machine. The lion is a clairvoyant of sorts, and Toto is an African American man who shape-shifts from dog to man.

I’m not going to give away the ending, but I liked it and the twist that they put on the entire storyline. It was definitely different.
