Did you know about The Jitterbug?

Probably one of the most famous deleted scenes of all time is from The Wizard of Oz (which I watched last night on New Year's Eve). There is a line the Wicked Witch of the West says where she sent an insect along ahead which is still in the movie, but the song and scene were removed.

The attached clip below gives you the dialogue and the song itself even though the actual footage no longer exists. I actually like the song a lot and wished it was still in the movie, but it will never be.

The Wizard of Oz is one of my favorite all time movies and I try and watch it every few years to remind myself that movies are still special and even though I complain about most modern films being not very original any more, they still should transport you somewhere and make you forget about your troubles even for just a little while.

You should watch it again yourself!

Dark Disney Movie

In the 80's disney released alot of dark twisted movie. Like "The Watcher in the Woods", "Dragonslayer", "Something Wicked This Way Comes" and "Return to Oz". This movie is. Including with those movies. This movie is dark and twisted. But at the same time, its a excellent animation movie. About love, betrayal, mystical power and evil vs. good. Its like "Robin Hood" mix with "The Sword in the Stone". Combine those two films you get this film.

The plot: In the land of Prydain, lowly pig herder Taran (Grant Bardsley) dreams of becoming a gallant knight. Young Taran receives his heroic calling when the evil Horned King (John Hurt) kidnaps Hen-Wren, a prophesying pig that had been entrusted to Taran. Now, with help from his furry sidekick Gurgi and Princess Eilonwy, Taran must locate the magical black cauldron before the Horned King is able to use its mystical powers to summon an army of the undead.

Its a very underrated animation film, that i highly recordmend watching it.
