I've never seen Return to Oz in full, although I want to. I've only seen bits and pieces of it, I never seem to catch it when it first starts. I thought the girl from The Craft (admittedly, that film came much later in her career, but I assumed she must've been chosen because she has crazy eyes for both RtO as well as The Craft.blackcauldron85 wrote:I love The Wizard Of Oz, too (but I love Return to Oz even more).
) is an interesting choice. Some of the later scenes were laced with tension and atmosphere, so I've always wanted to see it whole. I agree, UmbrellaFish, The Wizard of Oz would make a great park. The yellow brick road, the Emerald City, the witch's fortress, etc. The Wicked Witch's hourglass is probably the main reason I have a fondness for having them as decorations more than Aladdin really. It's always interesting to me that the witches of the North and West come immediately when they sense something has happened to the Witch of the East, so it's odd the Witch of the South is ignored altogether? I always laugh at the fact that the Wizard is a charlatan in the dream just like he is in real life; she must've realized he's a sham unconsciously.
I've never read the books. That's something else to get around to one day. I wish I'd done it as a child, like I did with Lord of the Rings, Narnia, Prydain, etc.
