The Wizard of Oz has been on like the last two days. My kids have watched it, after watching The Grinch who Stole Christmas.
Now, Oz is a different kinda movie, if you ask me, but there are several fallacies in it. Like, we're sitting there, and I'm like, cool, Dorothy is in black and white, and then when the house lands in oz, she's in color. She had to have been 'trippin', on shrooms, or something.
Then, I was paying attention to the good witch when she was telling Dorothy about the midgets. She tells her to follow the golden brick road, and that the midgets will guide her to the end of their land. Did you notice that? And then, when she embarks on her journey, they only follow her to the edge of the garden, wtf? I thought the good witch told her they'd escort her to the edge of midget land, or whatever it is called. Thanks for the escort.
My youngest loved Toto, and I had to investigate to see what kinda dog Toto was. In the movie, he is a Cairn Terrier, and get this, he got paid like $125/week, and the midgets only got paid $50/week. Wtf? I mean, we got African/Americans demanding reparations for slavery, when the midgets get paid less than a dog! That's screwed up.
The midgets, they were cool, though. Do you remember when they were singing (all the time). And the three little dudes were singing something that sounded like 'lolipop' or something. Anyway, they looked badass, all stiff lipped and one even had a pipe in his mouth, he looked like a little Popeye of something. I think if I was a midget, I'd be that one, with the pipe, he just looked like he could open a little can of whoopass if he wanted to.
But, what was up with the flowers sprouting from their shoes? Did you notice that? They had to have been tripping.
