The Wizard of Oz was released 80 years ago today!!

It's impossible to imagine what Hollywood movies would be like without this film! Star Wars, for example, took some inspiration from it. And Star Wars became the template for many "heros journey" blockbuster movies where a motley crew set off to achieve something. Watching Oz today it is easy to compare it with Avengers and other Marvel films in the character dynamics and overall structure. So influential and timeless.
