Follow the yellow brick road…

All “Wizard of Oz” fans will love this.

At www.movies.com, they compiled a list of ‘35 things you don’t know about Wizard of Oz.’

As a fan myself, I heard of some things, but also learned a lot too. For example, I knew it was true that Pink Floyd’s “Dark Side of the Moon” coincides with some of the scenes. But I didn’t know that Judy Garland called the Munchkin actors “drunks who got smashed every night” during a TV talk show interview in the 1960’s. Ouch!

Go here for the entire list. Enjoy!

    Has anybody else been watching Tin Man, which is a Wizard of Oz remake, on Sci-Fi Channel?

    I’ve been watching it. There’s some very clever updates on characters and a lot of quotes picked up straight from the classic version. There’s a very “modern fantasy” take on the land of OZ.

    I’m not too sure I like this family relationship that is part of key plot in Tin Man … you know what I mean if you’re watching.
