Top 10 Things Only Adults Notice in The Wizard of Oz

give them back to me your it's too late there they are and there they'll stay welcome to Ms Mojo and today we're counting down our picks for the wonderful wizardly and weird things about The Wizard of Oz that might have grabbed their broomsticks and flown over our heads when we were kids [Music] [Applause] [Music] now number 10 the special effects are super impressive kids watching today or even 30 years ago wouldn't even Flinch as Dorothy leaves her sepia home and enters the Technicolor munchkin land Toto I have a feeling we're not in Kansas anymore they might have even thought the initial Lack of Color was just a glitch but imagine seeing it for the first time in 1939 that moment Dorothy steps out of her front door would have blown your mind it's beautiful isn't it just like I knew it would be he really must be a wonderful Wizard to live in a city like that the movie was one of the Front Runners in special effects Innovation using cuttingedge technology to bring Al Frank bal's fantastic world to life apparently it was a long process that posed plenty of challenges however it played a crucial role in making The Wizard of Oz an iconic piece of Cinema history she brings you good news or haven't you heard when she fell out of Kansas a miracle Ur number nine where are Dorothy parents when we first meet Dorothy Gail she's pretty happy living on a farm with her Uncle Henry and Aunt M come on we'll go tell Uncle Henry andm still we can't help but wonder where her parents are they're never mentioned in the film so for all we know they could be anywhere from chasing their own rainbows to no longer around if you've read the books you might remember that at one point it's briefly mentioned that Dorothy's mother passed away still neither the book nor the movie truly delves into how Dorothy came to live with her aunt and uncle someone she's been very kind to someone she's taken care of in sickness I had the measles once and she stayed right by me every minute mhm also are they biologically related or does she just call them Auntie and Uncle as a term of affection because I love you all and oh Andy M there's no place like home number eight the Wicked Witch of the West's hygiene habits if it takes a mere bucket of water to melt This Witch how does she keep up with her person cleanliness water you cursed bre look what you've done if she's not bathing or washing her hands what is she doing has she conjured up some liquidless Alternatives like the hand sanitizer gels we've all become dependent on these days or did she ask the wizard to think up some solution perhaps the real reason the munchkins fear her is because they can always smell her before they see her also is she cranky because she's always dehydrated we admit we've fallen down the rabbit hole with this this one but once you think about it it's kind of hard to stop I'm Ming Ming oh what world my world who thought a good little girl like you could destroy my beautiful wickedness number seven is Glenda really all that good in Wicked we learn that the wizard bestowed the title of good on Glenda when you bowed before his throne he decreed You' tence be known as glender the official however who gave her 1939 MGM counterpart that name we'd like to have a word firstly she seems to enjoy the munchkin celebratory March more than anyone else Also let's not forget who put the Target on Dorothy's back or more correctly those shoes on her feet keep tight inside of them their magic must be very powerful or she wouldn't want them so badly you stay out of this blinda or I'll fix you as well rubbish you have no power here be gone before somebody drops a house on you too she probably made Dorothy's trip to the Emerald City that much harder also if she could help Dorothy get home was that whole she had to learn it for herself thing really necessary you've always had the power to go back to Kansas I have then why didn't you tell her before because she wouldn't have believed me she had to learn it for herself if anything Dorothy's reaction in Mad TV's alternate ending makes far more sense perhaps Glenda Mistress of chaos is more appropriate click your heels and say say there's no place like home there's no place like home and you would have been home 2 seconds I could have been home 2 seconds after I got here number six Frank Morgan was kept very busy on set we first see Frank Morgan as Professor Marvel whom Dorothy meets when she runs away from home they don't understand you at home they don't appreciate you you want to see other lands big cities big mountains big oceans why it's just like you could read what was inside of me now Pop Quiz who is his Oz counterpart a the wizard B two different Emerald City Guards or C The Coachman of the horse of a different color if you said surprise D all of the above gold star for you some folks think there's more to it than just the studio trying to save money or show off Morgan's acting skills I get you into the wizard somehow come on I had an hand him myself once in bal's books the Emerald City residents seemingly wore green lens glasses that created the illusion of the spectacular City likewise Morgan's wizard may have embodied the various characters to keep up his charade pay no attention to that man behind the curtain the Gren H has spoken number five fly fly my pretties remember that scene where the wicked witch sends her flying monkeys to capture Dorothy take your army to the haunted forest and bring me that that girl and her dog do what you like with the others but I want her alive and unarm they'll give you no trouble I promise you that of course you do those flying monkeys have fueled kids' nightmares for Generations now do you remember what she says as they fly by her window did you say fly my pretties sorry to break it to you but you've been had by the Mandela effect don't believe us listen [Music] [Applause] again why have so many of us misremembered it well the witch tends to call Dorothy my pretty so it seems we collectively just melded the two quotes together it's not the only misremembered line either next time you watch see if you can hear any others here we'll get you started but it wasn't a dream it was a place and you and you and you and you were there oh but you couldn't have been could you number four does Miss Gulch ever come back for Toto the movie opens with Dorothy and Toto catching the ey of the local shrew Miss Gulch she isn't coming yet Toto did she hurt you she tried to didn't she come on we'll go tell Uncle Henry and Andy M come on to however Toto manages to escape then there's the Twister and so on fast forward to the end Dorothy wakes up thinking she's been away for days only it seems not even one day has passed that's one powerful subconscious but I did leave you Uncle Henry that's just the trouble and I tried had to get back for days and days there there lie quiet now you just had a bad dream anyway given how things were left with Miss Gulch wouldn't she come back for Toto when she realized he'd escaped Dorothy's Guardians had obeyed the sheriff's order the first time and we can't go against the law Dorothy I'm afraid poor Toto will have to go now you're seeing reason here's what I'm taking him in so he can't attack me again oh no no I won't let you take him you'll go away oh I'll bite you myself Dorothy imagine if Dorothy woke up from her dream to find her beloved pet gone perhaps Miss Gulch did return but this time and M really let her have it just because you own half the county doesn't mean you have the power to run the rest of us for 23 years I've been dying to tell you what I thought of you and now well being a Christian woman I can't say it number three Dorothy shoes are meant to be silver balms fans might spot nods to the books throughout the movie for example see the umbrella on Miss gulch's bicycle in the books the witch is Aussie and Alter Ego uses an umbrella not a broomstick which makes sense given her water aversion the wooden saw horse is also a nod to a book character and readers will recognize the golden Gap as the tool the witch uses to control her flying monkeys somebody always helps that girl but shoes are no shoes I'm still great enough to conquer her and wo to those who try to stop however one significant change stands out Dorothy's shoes in the book books they're silver but this famous pair clearly aren't well if you'd invested in the latest Technicolor movie Tech wouldn't you want to make those shoes shine when I gain those ruby slippers my power will be the greatest in all there is no denying that Ruby really pops number two who's Glenda's Kansas Alter Ego as we've seen almost everyone Dorothy meets in Oz has a Kansas counterpart now look at darthy you ain't using your head about Miss Gulch think you didn't have any brains at all I have so got brains well why don't you use them indeed this is teased in one of the earliest scenes where two of the farm hands advised Dorothy about her brains and courage there was reportedly also meant to be a line about a machine with real heart but it got cut still one mystery remains who's Dorothy's realworld Glinda I am a witch I'm Glinda the Witch of the North you are oh I beg your pardon but I've never heard of a beautiful witch before we certainly don't meet anyone who fits the bill except maybe an M but then wouldn't she be played by the same actress like all the others perhaps she represents Dorothy's mother Glenda was apparently inspired by bal's mother-in-law author and Advocate Matilda Joselyn Gage so there's definitely some motherly connection there will you help me can you help me you don't need to be helped any longer you've always had the power to go back to Kansas I have then why didn't you tell her before because she wouldn't have believed me before we unveil our top pick pick here are a few honorable mentions Dorothy's daughter Hearts the Tin Man's son jack Haley's tin man found his heart so his son Jack Haley JR could give it for a brief time at least to Liza Manelli Dorothy's hair length changes is this part of the magic of Oz self- styling hair would save us a few trips to the salon my people come and go so quickly a Disney Connection in If I Only Had a Heart we briefly hear Snow White voice actress Adriana celotti she's uncredited due to her contract with Disney picture mey above theing La wherefore art thou Romeo Dorothy's dress has pockets if we met the wizard we might have asked for dresses with pockets to be more common that's awfully nice of you my life has been simply unbearable oh well it's all right now the wizard will fix everything scarecrow recites Pythagorean theorem or does he hey it's only his first day with a brain we spent years in school we're not even sure we would get it right some of the square roots of any two sides of an isoc triangle is equal to the square root of the remaining side oh joy Rapture I've got a Brain before

she's just found out that her sister had been flattened by a falling house she thinks about those Ruby shoes and how she'll fondly remember her late sister every time she clicks her heels together no it was an accident I didn't mean to kill anybody well my little pretty I can cause accidents too aren't you forgetting the ruby slippers slippers yes slipper only what happens some meddling witch who audaciously calls herself good decides to take them and who does she give them to that's right the very girl who's responsible for your sister's demise they're gone the Ruby secet what have you done with them give them back to me your it's too late there they are and there they sure it wasn't deliberate but that's neither here nor there right now we're not denying that this witch truly is wicked but come on don't tell us you wouldn't be mad too take special care of those Ruby sippers I want those most of all are there any tidbits from The Wizard of Oz that you only spotted only after you got
