The Wizard of Oz (film)/Awesome


  • "Almira Gulch... just because you own half the county doesn't mean you have the power to run the rest of us! For twenty-three years I've been dying to tell you what I thought of you... and now... well, being a Christian woman, I can't say it!"
  • "I AM OZ.... the Great and Powerful!"
  • Despite the fact that Glinda's all sugar and sweetness, she should not be underestimated. "Ha, ha, ha! Rubbish! You have no power here. Now begone -- before someone drops a house on you!"
  • Dorothy herself. I know, she gets a lot of flak for being some kind of whiny little brat, but people don't give the girl enough credit. I mean come on! She's had a whole lot thrown at her all at once for crying out loud! The girl does have a lot of guts, if you know when and where to look.
    • When confronted by Almira Gulch in the beginning she's brave enough to talk back.
    • When she leaves Munchkin land she doesn't complain about not having bodyguards.
    • When both the Scarecrow and Tin Man are too scared to fight the Lion, she isn't afraid at all.
    • When the Wizard makes poor Lion faint, who comes to his defense first? Dorothy.
    • All of these are almost always accompanied with a "Shame on you!" Just that line alone deserves a mention.
    • When The Scarecrow is on fire who picked up the bucket and tried to help?
    • The truth of the matter is that Dorothy retains her innocent nature throughout the movie. Honestly, the people who continue to diss her should try watching the movie more closely.
