introduction The reasoning for this website was to compile as much information as possible for this movie. Although alot of people slam it, it is actually very popular. It has been called a "90 minute Nintendo commercial". The film was a partial promotion for the video game Super Mario Brothers 3, but it won the hearts of video game fanatics everywhere leaving a permanent scar on their childhood. Most fans are all grown up now, but they still can't let go of the magic that is "The Wizard". Now for a little history on why I thought I should create a fansite for The Wizard. There wasn't one. My brother saw The Wizard in the theaters when he was just a wee lad and has rated it among his top favorites ever since. I felt I could honor both the movie itself and my brothers memory. Nostalgia is a funny thing and I have always been sentimental about such things. Especially movies and the feelings they invoke. Innocence, childhood and the choice to hold on to those precious pieces of ourselves we hide from others and from life as we grow older. Plain and simple. Hope you enjoy the site. Not much but I did my best. If you would like to contribute anything to the site, send an e-mail to sc83x@hotmail.com and I thank everyone who has done so thus far. I appreciate it. You fans have had a hand in this as much as I have. Thank you.
