It’s Thursday and Oz The Great and Powerful has topped $300 million worldwide at box office, according to Deadline . So, the Franco File is going to celebrate with a clip of what is arguably the best part of the movie: the black-and-white pre-CGI opening credits sequence. Alas, there’s no footage of our hero, the artist James Franco half-assing it through the Emerald City, as David Edelstein might put it , or yelling “Look at this shit!” over and over at the Alamo Drafthouse. But his name is prominently displayed in old-school fashion right at the beginning of this thing, with lots of hypno-wheels spinning in the background — which is exactly how we think of James. Enjoy.
