Miscellaneous Movie Musings

[Gemini Cricket]

So, The Wizard of Oz is on TBS. So, of course, I had to watch it. It's irresistible to some of us gays. It's like a gay moth being lured in by a pink flame.

There are some funny moments in this film. It's been awhile since I've seen it.

The Scarecrow talking about how he was attacked by the Winged Monkeys:

Scarecrow: First they took my legs off and they threw them over there! Then they took my chest out and they threw it over there!
Tin Woodsman: Well, that's you all over!

That's hysterical!



ETA: Also, I remember when I was young, I had no idea that all the men Dorothy and friends talked to in Oz were played by the same actor, Frank Morgan.

I never noticed the score playing "Night on Bald Mountain" before when the Scarecrow and friends enter the witch's castle.

I also didn't notice before that the witch's guards were green like her.

Another cool quote:

Wicked Witch of the West: The last to go will see the first three go before her.

Anyway, just a couple of tidbits I wanted to share.
