my gal pals and i were absolutely hooting and hollering whenever the hot scarecrow came onscreen to do a silly dance and fall down. we decided scarecrow is a lanky, sensitive, DIY boy who stands in front of you at your roommate’s friend’s house show and at first you’re annoyed but then he notices he’s blocking your view and he apologizes soooo much, maybe even too much, and after the show you joke around with him and laugh when he trips over his own dirty converse laces, and suddenly it’s 2 am and you’re heading home and you think you’re gonna miss him most of all

Absolute masterpiece. Way funnier than I remember, way cooler from a production standpoint, and way more beautiful. It's the Wizard of fucking Oz! What could I possibly say about this? Shit's great.

The story of an evil young child who goes on a fanatic witch hunt recruiting evil mutant minions in her wake.

a kansas horse girl unlearns her homophobia with the help of three gay cosplayers as she goes on a killing spree to stop ann coulter from kidnapping her dog 

(this movie tenderized me and im in love with life again)

Can't believe this still holds up 80 years later. Used to watch this a lot when I was a kid and now that I'm much older and understand a lot more, my emotions were all over the place by the time the ending comes around. Judy Garland as Dorothy plays the part so well and her performance the entire time with the other characters was absolutely captivating. There's genuinely no negative thing to say about this classic at all, it really is a perfect film.

So staggering in its effortless magic and in its mind-boggling creation of worlds, characters, places, and discoveries that it almost makes me cry from beginning to end just because of how perfect it is. The Wizard of Oz is quite possibly the pinnacle of cinema, as it lifts our dreams, our fears, our longing, and our connection to a projected image to a height of heavenly nirvana. No matter where you watch it, you can feel the beauty and the truth radiating from the screen. Honestly, there's really no excuse to dislike this movie, mainly because it has everything you could want in a piece of cinema; an engaging story, likable characters, flawless direction, vivid and luscious colors, scrumptious costume design, untouchable pacing, emotional revelations, amazing set design, impeccable atmosphere, trees who throw apples, talking scarecrows and lions and tinmen, creepy castles, poison, and evil flying monkeys.

EVIL FLYING MONKEYS.

Whatever your argument is, It's invalid.

A psychotic teenage runaway, a retarded scarecrow, a heartless cyborg and a furry go on a killing spree across the Australian outback.

Toto gives an Oscar-worthy performance. ‘Over the Rainbow’ is sung. There’s an impressive twister scene. The shift to technicolor is magical. A true classic.

I’m the scarecrow, cowardly lion rising. Moon in “that’s a horse of a different color!” guy.

Just a little joke on letterboxd. If you’re into astrology you could’ve been talked into eugenics if you’d been born in a different era.

The Cowardly Lion jumping out a window is the funniest thing ever

the costumes, the scenery, the characters, i wish i were there.

It's been such a long time since I watched this film that it felt like the first time, love when that happens.
This is still a technicolor dream to behold. The gorgeous painted scenery and backgrounds, the incredible costumes and colourful characters are all things we take for granted in this technology based future we live in.. it's the true "what a picture" picture. That being said, it's also a lot more unsettling than I remember. Those flying monkeys make me shudder.

This film made me say 'hmm, that was done well' many times. The colourful sets and costumes fit well with the lively narrative, and the actors do their roles justice.

Definitely worth a watch

Cool stuff but i think its boring

Wicked Witch of the East? I thought you said "Weast!"

I cried hard both times when Toto was taken away and when Dorothy missed the balloon home.

Watched the Warner Bros DVD.

Wonderful! Love the music and characters. It's a favorite for the entire family. I liked how they used the characters from black & white and their persona continued in the the colorful Oz. Judy Garland has a wonderful voice.

when I was a child, my nana got me a cassette player and one of the two cassettes she got me was the soundtrack to this movie. she grew up watching this movie and she was very happy I was in love with it just as much as she was. :,)

Timeless classic, never gets old rewatching this. A true cinematic marvel.

88/100
If a couple with a child ask me What movie should my child watch?
I will always recommend The Wizard Of Oz and The Sound Of Music.
