It is one of the best fantasies ever made you are right about that. It is highly enjoyable.

I don't think that the Wizard of Oz is perfect per se, but it is an incredible piece of art. It's among the top three musical films ever made. It is embedded in American culture.. perhaps more than any other film ever made. If you've never seen the Wizard of Oz.. in a way it is not really possible if you live in the US. So many pop culture references that it boggles the mind.
As for the perfect film I nominate Chinatown.

What makes this film amazing to me is that it was made nearly 80 years ago. No computers, all studio sets (which is pretty remarkable in itself!) and the cast actually had talent. They were all singers, actors, dancers and it shows. I just watched the Blu-Ray last night and it is simply one of those movies that I never get tired of. I think it's a tribute to how well the movie is loved when people who watched it as kids (like me) still enjoy it as adults.

Worst movie EVER made.

I've got it my #22 all time,
A+
. One aspect which shouldn't be taken too seriously from me- as a kid, the movie seemed sprinkled with almost too much maturity. Now as an adult, the opposite seems true.
As a teen, I distanced myself from it due to the musical numbers. Now I'm down again with them for laughs.

I agree, one of my favorite films of all time, and also one of the very bet. Truly a remarkable film

I think it's a great book and film (one of my favorites). It's a part of my childhood, which I'm sure is true for many people.

I think it's interesting "Why" we like the films that we do.
Sometimes it's not necessarily the film it's self, but what was going on for us when we saw it. Like something we saw growing up and we remember it with a time that we think of fondly.
I often think of music in a similar way. There is a period of music that I particular don't like. If I'm objective about it, it really is Not the music I don't like, it's because that time period was difficult for me personally and that music was the soundtrack of the period. ~
I do find it interesting why certain films do and do not resonate with us.

I agree with the OP, a timeless classic which will far outlive any trace or memory of demonlord6696.
So long and thanks for all the fish!

Do you mean "TERRIBLY"-good?
No. They mean "Look at me! Look at me! I'm committing what many will consider celluloid sacrilege! Everybody react to me with anger and insults and arguments that will be completely wasted on me!"

Do you mean "TERRIBLY"-good?

Then why don't you get the heck out of here, because I think this movie is awesome.

"this coming from some who names themself demonlord" - ROFL
Even larks and katydids are, supposed by some, to dream

LOL another terrible retort.

Well, "this movie is absolutely terrible" isn't exactly much of an argument either.

If pointing out someone's screen name is your best argument then that just makes you look sad and butt hurt.

The greatest masterpiece of all time and will never be equaled or surpassed ! Wonderful indeed !

I agree with OP.
Adventure, heroism, laughter, terror, beauty, sadness, and warmthand Toto too!
This movie will always be among my tiny group of favorites.

This coming from someone who names themself demonlord.This movie has stood the test of time and has been popular for more than 75 years. Can't be too terrible, but you are entitled to your opinion.

This movie is absolutely terrible.
