Wicked
Wicked wins a lot of early-round matchups but struggles against the best. At 56% overall, first impressions only go so far. Jon M. Chu's adaptation lands with the built-in fervor of the stage musical and a 'Defying Gravity' finale engineered to stop a room cold. What it carries into a forced choice is recognition and spectacle: a fanbase that already knows every lyric, and a showstopper most opponents have no answer for. Among Jon M. Chu's films on BingeBracket, nothing beats it. 1.9s avg decision time (platform avg: 3.5s). No deliberation needed.
Synopsis
In the land of Oz, ostracized and misunderstood green-skinned Elphaba is forced to share a room with the popular aristocrat Glinda at Shiz University, and the two's unlikely friendship is tested as they begin to fulfill their respective destinies as Glinda the Good and the Wicked Witch of the West.
68% to 46% to 43%. The decline is steady rather than sudden — Wicked doesn't collapse, it gradually meets its match. The films at the top of the bracket are a different class.
The matchup with Zootopia is a genuine coin flip at 50% — neither film has found an edge. Wicked owns Wicked: For Good at 68% but Moana flips the script entirely: just 29%.
The path through Original or Sequel? Family Favorites always ends the same way for Wicked: a final against Moana, a 71% loss rate. So close and so consistent.
Of the 2 Jon M. Chu films tracked on BingeBracket, Wicked leads. Wicked: For Good at 42% is the other entry — a 0% gap between them.
