Gone With The Wind Vs The Wizard Of Oz? - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

I find Gone With The Wind better. I think it was well made and had excellent cast members and supporting cast. The characters were very well done also. Could you imagine how long it took to make Gone With The Wind? A long time.

The Wizard Of Oz on the other hand, I don't like. I just don't.

I'm a WIZARD OF OZ fan!

Zoneboy · 08-21-2016, 03:47 PM

Once again I can't answer because I've never seen Gone With the Wind and The Wizard of Oz only once in it's entirety.

Dude111 · 08-21-2016, 04:54 PM

I cant either but I do love The wizard of oz! (I have the original analog master of it (1983 VHS release (I believe the 1980 and 1983 releases are the only analog copies out there)))

If I could find a PURE copy of GONE WITH THE WIND I would watch it.. (All I can find is digitally altered copies and that is said to be A BEAUTIFUL MOVIE (All technicolour -- Very hard to make) and I wanna see it IN ANALOG!! (The way it was made)))

Try buying the dvd of Gone With The Wind. I have the special box set and it only cost around $10

Impossible. Can't decide. However, O'Hara vs. Gale in a chick fight ? Gale, easily.

Both are fantastic and classics. They are the best in their own category. Having said that, I like both but am fanatical about the Wizard of Oz and collect books, dolls, photos, etc and I have it on both DVD and VHS. I have Gone With The Wind on DVD and have a doll (both inherited from my grandma who was a GWTW fanatic). Interesting I did have the book too like I have Wizard Of Oz but it got worn down.

I'm voting for Gone With The Wind. There is nothing better than Scarlett O'Hara.

Furienna · 08-23-2016, 09:38 PM

I have to go with GWTW. "The wizard of Oz" is just a big borefest.

Once again you're totally mistaken. Here you're talking old movies, and they were made on FILM. Just because you first watched analog television doesn't mean that's the way it was made. You can scream and kick your feet like a brat and it won't change the facts. Transferring film to VHS is not better than transferring to DVD or Blu ray.

PS: my Blu Ray of The Wizard of Oz, kicks the crap out of your remastered VHS LOL

Penny Lane · 08-24-2016, 12:26 PM

This is a toughie! As an adult I will choose Gone With The Wind. A masterpiece!

The Blu-ray version is crap. Probably has the movie in High Definition which lowers the quality of viewing the film. I would rather watch it on a DVD or VHS like Dude111 rather than Blu-ray

Eh. I always thought The Wizard Of Oz was just too "childish" to me. Gone With The Wind seems more sophisticated in my opinion

You're entitled to like whatever you want, but your opinion about Blu Ray is crap and makes no sense - none! - FILM is not analog. Blu Ray captures more of what's on the film..

I prefer Wizard Of Oz rather than Gone With The Wind.

Gone With The Wind was kind of too tragic and boring.

Wizard Of Oz was kind of lively, but even if the dog screwed up in the end, this movie ended successfully.
