A Little "Wizard Of Oz" Trivia

Sunday:

I am watching the Wizard of Oz, which I've seen a zillion times (like everyone, except for my freaky stepfather (he's not really freaky; he's awesome!), and my sister, neither of whom have seen it, which is weird.  Really weird.  Especially for Neil, who is over 60.  I mean, how can you live 60+ years, and NEVER have seen the Wizard of Oz?  Anyway...) but never noticed  this detail, that tonight I noticed.  It tickled me.  So, if anyone else already knew/noticed this, comment and let us know!!!

When Dorothy and the crew first go into the forest to seek the witch, what are they each carrying?

Answer:  I had to rewind it to catch all of it, but here it is:

Tin Man:  His axe, and a HUGE pipe wrench
Scarecrow:  A big stick, and a gun
Lion:  A butterfly net, and one of those old fashioned pump exterminator things
Dorothy:  Just her basket.  Girls are bad-ass and can take on a witch with just what is in our purse...or basket.

What an awesome movie.   Gotta run now... The Wizard is digging in his black bag!!

  1. I watched part of the movie, after seeing your Facebook post, and I wouldn't have remembered these things. I've seen it at least 15 times! I found myself knowing some of what they were going to say before they said it though!
