So little in fact, that when I wrote up our <a href=\"http:\/\/www.filmbuffonline.com\/FBOLNewsreel\/wordpress\/2010\/06\/22\/nine-wizard-of-oz-projects-in-the-works\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">rundown<\/a> of the various <em>Wizard Of Oz<\/em>-based projects currently in development, I hesitated before adding in Boorman&#8217;s project, unsure if it was still an on-going concern or not.<\/p>\n<p>While we still don&#8217;t have much in the way of new news on the project, a short animation test from the project has surfaced. It&#8217;s set fairly early in the story and shows us a portion of the scene where Dorothy first meets the Scarecrow along the Yellow Brick Road to the Emerald City. Note that this is just a render test, to see how the designs look, rather than a full-on animation test.<\/p>\n<p><object classid=\"clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000\" width=\"480\" height=\"270\" codebase=\"http:\/\/download.macromedia.com\/pub\/shockwave\/cabs\/flash\/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0\"><param name=\"allowFullScreen\" value=\"true\" \/><param name=\"allowScriptAccess\" value=\"always\" \/><param name=\"src\" value=\"http:\/\/www.dailymotion.com\/swf\/video\/xeeeax_le-magicien-d-oz-test-de-rendu-vo_shortfilms?additionalInfos=0\" \/><param name=\"allowfullscreen\" value=\"true\" \/><embed type=\"application\/x-shockwave-flash\" width=\"480\" height=\"270\" src=\"http:\/\/www.dailymotion.com\/swf\/video\/xeeeax_le-magicien-d-oz-test-de-rendu-vo_shortfilms?additionalInfos=0\" allowscriptaccess=\"always\" allowfullscreen=\"true\"\/><\/object><\/p>\n<p>Via <a href=\"https:\/\/web.archive.org\/web\/20191127103036\/https:\/\/www.bleedingcool.com\/2010\/09\/03\/test-footage-from-john-boormans-animated-wizard-of-oz-stupid-invaders-trailer\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Bleeding Cool<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\">A long while back in was announced that director John Boorman was working on an animated version of L.
