How many times have you watched the Wizard of Oz movie?  |
|
I mean the MGM movie starring Judy Garland. I watched it every year when I was growing up, then as an adult I still watched it every year, then when videos came out, I got the VHS video as a birthday present one year. Then a few years ago, I joined a DVD club and picked The Wizard of Oz as one of my DVD choices so, how many times have I watched the movie? I don't know the exact number but it has to be [at the very least] 35 times. That's my conservative guess-timate because I think I've watched it more than that. What about you?

horsesrule (1206) | 1 year ago | I hear you, if it is on TV, I do still watch it again. I know I've seen it way more times that what I listed here but I was trying to be conservative in my guess-timate. I almost can't get enough of the movie either. Everyone knows when I've been watching it too because I use movie quotes from it. My grandsons don't love the movie like I do which makes me sad but maybe I will be able to convince them it's the greatest someday!

2. Bee1955 (3238) | 1 year ago | Oh I think I beat you. My best guess is arounf 65 times. I loved that movie and so did my mom. We would watch it together quite often and she would try to sing along with the songs (she was tonedeaf!). She's gone now and everytime it comes on TV I feel a little sad.

horsesrule (1206) | 1 year ago | I'm sorry it makes you feel a little sad because it is a beautiful memory that you can cherish forever. I don't have beautiful memories of my mother, or let me re-phrase that, I only have a couple of small memories of my mother that are worth remembering and nothing as beautiful as your memory. I feel a tiny bit envious of your memory though I am very sorry for your loss.

3. ElicBxn (7667) | 1 year ago | I love the Wizard of Oz. My dad used to read us the books when I was a kid. I have - in some box out in the shed - a complete collection of the books. I have the VHS tape, I even wrote a little Oz story once. I'd love to go to Oz, but I'd have to take some cats with me, because the glass cat (from the books) is just too cold for me (that's a joke son.)

4. KATRINKA (799) | 1 year ago | I honestly don't know how many times I've watched the movie. The first time I saw it, it was on TV when I was about 5. I watched it every year after that. And I watch it every time it comes on TV. I don't have the DVD...yet. My computer used to have .wav sounds and a Wizard of Oz theme. Every time I clicked something wrong on my computer, it would say to me, "What would you do with a brain if you had one?" I also have the soundtrack on CD. I'm embarrassed to say I know all the words to the songs. One of my best dates was when my boyfriend rented Wizard of Oz. He laughed as I said the dialogue throughout the movie.{sigh} Do you like any of Judy Garland's other films?

5. Transdisc (14017) | 1 year ago | I usually watched it every year that it came on when I was a child. I haven't seen it in at least 20 years. But your discussion reminds me of the Peanuts shows and Santa Claus shows that came on every year. I couldn't wait to watch them. When I try to related the excitement of these shows to my children, they can't even comprehend what it would be like to have to wait all year just to see a show, and then if you missed it, that was it. There was no way to record it or no way to buy the movie and watch it whenever or as many times as I chose. They just don't have a clue. Thanks for the memories, horsesrule.

someonesmom (1801) | 1 year ago | I agree with you Transdisc. Today's generation of kids, have no concept as to what it was like growing up in our day. I can remember too, what a huge event these special movies etc. were, when we could only see them once a year. It's even hard for me to imagine now, what it'd be like to have to go back to living that way. I also loved the Peanuts shows, and the Christmas ones too. Great memories.

8. emeraldisle (9053) | 1 year ago | Well I had to sit and think on this. Growing up it was on once a year and I watched it then. That went on for at least 20 years so that was 20 times I saw it. Then when I was in my mid-twenties cable started showing it more often and I'd watch it. Then I got in on VHS and DVD. So I'd say probably I've seen it at least a 100 times if not more. Just one of those movies that when it's on I'll watch it.

9. CosmicWhiteTigress (148) | 1 year ago | A rough estimate would be 50 times. I still love to watch it as much as I can. It is a timeless movie.

10. someonesmom (1801) | 1 year ago | My sister and I used to watch this timeless classic every year when it came on. It was a 'big event' in our household, as it was only shown the one time, as mentioned previously. Now with cable, VHS and DVDs, we can 'follow the yellow brick road' whenever we wish. My daughter is in a high school production of the Wizard of Oz, and the shows are currently running. She plays five parts, including one of the trees, and is loving it. Have you ever seen 'The Dreamer of Oz', starring the late John Ritter? It's a great 'made for t.v. movie', and worth checking out.
