Government gives away tax money to billionaires and huge corporations, subsidizes Wall Street risk takers, insures crazy mortgage loans, and when it inevitably goes to crap, the people say “Capitalism failed!!”
Wall Street? Bankers? The author needs to put down the bong and leave the stale air of his mother’s basement.
Where in Michigan did they film it?
Suckahs!
Franco is usually pretty good but he really stunk up this movie. He spent half his screen time tilting his head back so you could gaze up his nostrels. And grinning like a baboon.
My favorite film version of The Wizard of Oz is the one from 1925 starring Larry Seman and Oliver Hardy—before he teamed up with Stan Laurel.
According to the movie, Oz is ruled by a junta of evil noblemen. The wizard, whom they believe is for real, is in cahoots. However, he is actually a good guy, and he smuggles the infant crown princess to a farm in Kansas to get her away from the junta. She is raised as Dorothy, but when she turns 16, she will be handed a document announcing that she is in fact, the Crown Princess Dorothea.
Meanwhile, the junta finds out where she is and sends a goon squad to the farm in an airplane, and they tangle with Dorothy’s relatives and hired hands. A wind soon blows the entire gang back to Oz, where they have many further adventures.
