sure - I'm 87 and was at the premiere - (around 5 years old) I too was afraid of the march of the soldiers. Still now it impesses me - I too wanted to know what they were singing. Finally I found the libretto of the film - there it appears just letters 00-ee-aa-o-ah--

This is my favorite scene in the whole movie. The fact that the Scarecrow, Tin-Man, and Lion beat the shit out of three guards and then put on their uniforms to sneak in is amazing. It shows that what Oz gave them at the end, were qualities they already had

[@megmanxtreme64]

Fucas101 I know right?! And all this time scarecrow was claiming that he didn't have a brain yet he came up with numerous ideas on how to break into the witch's castle without being noticed, using tinman's axe to drop the chandelier on the guards as a destraction to escape. Although, they still ended up getting trapped. Yup, old scarecrow had a brain all along, it was just in the one place he forgot to look. His straw covered head. 😉

I'm just imagining after the witch is defeated the rest of the guards are like, "Hey, have you seen three of our guys? They were outside patrolling the area."

[@sha11235]

They probably didn't care about that, since they were free from the Witch. They probably did find those guys later on if they did keep track.

[@Cosmic-Entropy]

When I first saw this as a kid I was not expecting how deep that chant was. It's like a requirement for being a guard is a bass voice.

[@MaskedMan66]

The men who sang the chant sang it at a faster speed, then their voices were slowed down to sound monstrous. :-)

Feel the same way about this song and the way they sang it. The whole castle and witch scene used to terrify my siblings and me when we were little.

Like Andrew Levin said, that's the point. The whole point of the movie is that they each want what they already have. The lion already has courage, the tinman already has a heart, and the scarecrow already has a brain. But they each doubt themselves so much they don't even realize it. But at the end, when they realize the wizard is a fraud, they realize that they already had what they wanted. They just needed to believe that they had the courage, the compassion, and the intelligence.

in my opinion, this is the scene where Dorothy's friends discover that they already have what they each wanted from the Wizard, although they don't yet know it. 1. The Tin Man almost sheds a tear for Dorothy, proving his heart. 2. The Scarecrow comes up with the plan to rescue her, Proving he CAN think. 3. The Lion, although he has to be talked into it, finds the courage to lead the way into the castle.

Nick Chopper cried a lot earlier in the picture, when Dorothy, Toto, and the Lion were all asleep in the Deadly Poppy Field, and the Scarecrow worked out how to goad the Fighting Trees into chucking their apples at him so Dorothy could gather them up. Frankly, apart from this scene, the Lion really doesn't get to prove his courage a lot in this movie.

[@Adamguy2003]

@@MaskedMan66 Yeah. The whole part in the beginning when he climbs up to the rise and waves to the Scarecrow and Tin Man to come up reminds me of a military squad leader on the battlefield scouting ahead and then signaling his troops to follow.

Two random things I love about this scene. The creaking sound of the drawbridge combined with the music adds to the dramatics. Also think Toto trailing behind with them is really cute.

[@MaskedMan66]

The sound designers on this movie have never received their proper due. Did you know that all of the clinking and clanking that the Tin Woodman does were added in post production? The costume was made of buckram and leather, so it made no noise to speak of.

[@miteyc]

As a kid born in the late 50's, The Wizard of Oz used to come on annually usually on a Sunday evening. Yeh...no instant media back then. The march of the witches guard during this part of the soundtrack was always what I waited for. It is down right funky and if I fell asleep before this scene, I was always bummed out. Did i say this is downright funky? As a kid i was convinced!

[@ricardoacosta2456]

I love all these characters, and I love this movie. As a kid, I always loved this part of the movie, and the lion was my favorite of the trio because even though he would always either run away, faint (particularly when he first meets the wizard, that part always and still cracks me up) he found the small spark of courage in himself to rescue Dorothy and help her and his friends save the day in the end. So, in short, I found that moment in the film to be a good life lesson that I think anyone can relate to in some way in our day-to-day lives that there may end up being a situation where even if the situation isn't a life-or-death moment, but just even the smallest moments where you maybe called to do something courageous for yourself or someone else, (even when you don't want to or someone or yourself ends up "talking you out of it"), but I think Gandalf put it best when all you needed was a "little nudge out of the door".

[@luzcastillo6617]

The discipline of the changing of the guard, the music always fires me up, has always been my favorite part of the movie

[@WPUpioneer]

The drill sequence for the winkie guards and how they file into the castle was interesting, as are their Halberds. I wonder if military experts choreographed it? Though I must say, probably the most interesting guard change I've ever seen. Six guys at parade rest out front, as the relieving guards march single file up the center. The shift change then switch places with the guards being relieved, who then march into the castle. Smooth.

Of course, this gambit wouldn't have worked in the book. The Scarecrow would be the only one who could have managed it, since he's made of Munchkin clothes and Winkies and Munchkins are the same size. Also, the Lion was four-legged and the size of a small horse.

I know the script says they're just chanting vowels but I like the theory that they're chanting " oh we loathe the old one" giving the twist that they actually dislike the witch

[@ifeelpretty5790]

agarcia827 I've never heard of that theory, I love it!

[@bubbariots9854]

I watched this movie at least 300+ times as a kid. My mother said this was my favorite movie when I was a little boy(I'm 24)

[@JoshBG20]

I love the TinMan! I have two versions of the TinMan tattooed on my arms, this version and '78 Wiz version. When I was a kid when I saw the TinMan cry in this I always felt the need to cry as well. The TinMan was my childhood hero and still is to this day!

[@MaskedMan66]

Would you consider getting either the W.W. Denslow version and/or the John R. Neill version put somewhere?

[@TheGreekPianist]

This scene always terrified me as a kid in the 90s! The structure of the witch's castle looks so dark, expressionless, uninviting, and stone-cold; like a big prison. So creepy!

[@MaskedMan66]

The funny thing is that in the book, the WWW actually kept a beautiful castle.

[@johnlorenzen4633]

It is terrifying

[@claytonbelcourt1472]

It's beautiful

[@tristezzalamentoluciano265]

You'll notice that each of them acts in accordance with the character traits they're seeking from The Wizard. Implying that perhaps they had them all the time. Much like Dorothy's ability to return home.

[@mizgraffiti]

I remember in first grade, my substitute teacher I had had us do the Winkie March when we had to come in from recces. It was fun.

[@shemitch]

If you want to laugh for hour and years, even decades later like I do, listen to how the lion says "No!" (at the 1:20 mark)while protesting that he doesn't want to go in the castle! It's hysterical. I make my friend laugh out loud every time that I say it to him!

[@mannymacvela3877]

The fight with the winks literally resembled an off-screen cartoon fight. LOL!

It was an off screen fight, but not a cartoon.

I have watched this musical movie with Judy Garland and loved their dancing I loved their songs and their talented voices.

I remember hearing this chant in a Prince song from the 80’s and said I was not the only one watching the Wizard of Oz and loved this chant

[@afriendofbean]

From 0:43-0:44, I love how Scarecrow said that he has a plan to get inside the witches castle when he thought he has no brain and he even told Dorothy that he won't try to manage things because he can't think but he was very good at thinking his plan and he came up with that great idea on how to tease those apple trees just to get apples. All this shows that Scarecrow, Tinman, and Lion had everything they were wanting (brain, heart, and courage) but, they just didn't know they have it. Plus at the end of the movie in the Emerald City, Scarecrow was very smart to solve that math equation where he thought he didn't have a brain.

[@MaskedMan66]

This was all shown in the book, 39 years before the movie. 🙂

[@afriendofbean]

@@MaskedMan66 I know but, it's also nice to comment all these things for the movie where you can't comment about it on the book unless the book was being read on KZbin showing page by page as someone is reading word for word with a voiceover in the background.

[@missuma2]

My daughter got me the Special Edition of the Wizard of Oz & in the documentary they discuss what the soldiers are actually chanting... Of course, it's voice actors/singers of which they slowed down to sound deeper-voiced & stuff...I forget off the top of my head what it is - next time I watch that I'll let you know...

[@TheEifeltower]

When I was a kid this film use to scare the hell out of me. When that witch came and took Dorothys dog stuff fell apart literally. even the house fell on the witch I knew things were going to happen badly.now at sixty it's a pretty remarkable film considering that it was written in the 30,s wow.it was very complexed and unique. Absolutely a film every child should see to learn about good and evil.

[@iztdm]

That chant was missing from "Oz the Great and Powerful" and I was sorely disappointed.

[@ZackExplorer28]

IZtheDoomMovie it had it's chance to redeem itself with that.

[@robertrecchia2642]

I always thought it was cool that the Scarecrow, Lion, & Tim Man were able to take out 3 guards who got the jump on them.

The scarecrow obviously says he has no brain but he's obviously coming up with some really really smart idea plans on how to break into the witch's castle to free Dorothy.

Yep. Maybe that's why they don't play it live often. They may have to pay royalty for it or the song structure is a lot complex.. i am just guessing.

[@SamsarasArt]

I always thought those guards were neat. I liked that march and their spears looked cool

[@Travigameis]

1:55 Guards: "So we've got spears, should we just stab them from behind and easily take them out?" "Nah man get rid of the spears, the plot needs them to get inside."

[@MaskedMan66]

Spears would not have worked against the Scarecrow or the Tin Woodman. Besides, they didn't see them as a challenge.

Probably my favorite part would be the fight with the guards and the trio. It looked as though the trio was done for but when you see them coming out with the clothes, makes you think "What did they do to win that fight?"

[@MaskedMan66]

Well, the Tin Woodman had that axe, and you may have noticed the Lion picking his teeth.

[@Rad1antGeneralZelcina]

The Scarecrow also had a gun.
