Toto is ready to fight those guards! #WizardOfOz #Svengoolie
The pace kicked into high gear.

Night on Bald Mountain by
Modest Mussorgsky
All this great original soundtrack music, but for the big chase scene they dropped in "Night on Bald Mountain" by Modest Mussorgsky. I know there are other borrowed tunes, but this is just the most obvious. #WizardofOz #svengoolie #HouseofSvengoolie
“…I hope your tail holds up!” says the Tin Man to the Cowardly Lion. One of my favorite lines! #WizardOfOz #Svengoolie
The guards have a skin condition too

Finally! I can deploy the only piece of #WizardofOz trivia I know:
The costumes for the Winkie Guards were all purportedly made from surplus Federal overcoats from the Civil War 75 years before.
It’s apparently part of the reason finding original unissued overcoats is hard. #Svengoolie
I'm not going to kill you immediately. I'll wait until the sand runs out. Now, it didn't work with that fellow James Bond, but I'm certain it will work for you.
Oh eee oh
Oh oh
The way the Witch says "delicately" is a great line reading. Margaret Hamilton is acting her heart out. So is Judy Garland. Those tears sound real.

#WizardofOz trivia fans know the cut dance number was "The Jitterbug," nothing like the Jitterbug dance just then becoming popular, but they didn't want to hook up to a current fad. And I agree it would have broken the flow of the forest scene. #Svengoolie #HouseofSvengoolie
The flying monkeys still hit hard.

All the #WizardofOz scenes with fire obviously used REAL flame. But luckily the audience chamber with Oz is not where the actors are, for safety's sake. And wasn't that kind of what being called into the principal's office was like? #Svengoolie #HouseofSvengoolie
You can tell that the Scarecrow is American. He has a gun.
Friends of Dorothy didn't mean the Scarecrow Tinman and Lion a couple decades later
This is where the movie stops being a musical and turns into a Halloween special. Come to think of it, playing on Svengoolie isn't that far-fetched.
