Searching for Emerald Cities on Disney Plus?
Okay, let's be real. We've all been there. You're scrolling through Disney Plus. You crave a classic. You think, "Aha! The Wizard of Oz! Perfect!"
But then... disappointment. Where's Dorothy? Where's Toto?
The Great and Powerful...Not on Disney Plus?
Nope. You won't find The Wizard of Oz chilling alongside Mickey and Elsa. It's a bit of a head-scratcher, right? It feels like it SHOULD be there.
Seriously, that technicolor dreamscape practically screams "Disney!" The catchy songs? The heartwarming message?
Someone tell me I'm not alone in thinking this!
My Unpopular Opinion (Brace Yourselves)
Here's where I get controversial. I think The Wizard of Oz is overrated. *Gasp!* I know, I know. Hear me out.
Yes, it's iconic. Yes, Judy Garland is amazing. But...it can be a little slow. And the Wicked Witch? Terrifying!
As a kid, I always hid behind the couch when she popped up. Nightmares, I tell you!
Disney Has Its Own Magic, Though
Disney Plus may not have Dorothy's adventures. But it boasts a whole kingdom of wonder. Think singing princesses. Swashbuckling pirates.
And talking animals galore! No lions, tigers, or bears, oh my! But plenty of other furry friends.
We have Mufasa, Simba, Baloo, Nemo...they're all there! Maybe it's time to embrace new classics?
Finding Oz Elsewhere
If you're dead-set on seeing The Wizard of Oz, don't despair! It's available on other streaming services.
You can also rent or buy it. Good old-fashioned DVDs still exist!
So, you can get your fill of the Yellow Brick Road. Just not on Disney Plus. Sorry!
Is It a Conspiracy?
Okay, maybe I'm getting carried away. But why ISN'T it on Disney Plus? Is it some kind of licensing deal? A secret agreement with the Lollipop Guild?
I'm just throwing out ideas here! Probably the licensing thing, but let's keep the mystery alive, shall we?
I refuse to believe logic is the only answer.
Embrace the Disney Plus Magic (Without Oz)
So, while we can lament the absence of The Wizard of Oz on Disney Plus, let's not lose hope. There is still so much content to watch!
We have Marvel superheroes. Star Wars adventures. Animated classics.
And, let's be honest, enough sequels and remakes to keep us occupied until the cows come home. Or until a house lands on a witch, whichever comes first.
Final Thoughts (And Maybe a Little Plea)
Maybe someday, The Wizard of Oz will find its way to Disney Plus. Until then, we can dream of ruby slippers and Munchkins.
And maybe, just maybe, someone at Disney will read this and think, "Hey, she's got a point!"
Then, BAM! Suddenly Dorothy is gracing our screens. A girl can dream, right?
"Toto, I've a feeling we're not in the Disney vault anymore."
