My immediate thoughts on the Wizard of Oz

I was just watching the Wizard of Oz on television while working and I've come to a decision similar to that of Mary Poppins.

Dorothy's a bloodthirsty killer. she covers it up with her innocent face and her constant excuse "i didn't mean to kill her! it was an accident!" psh. she really seeks to murder all adults who have plans of success. does any other human in the movie have ambitions?! no. a scarecrow, a tinman, and a lion are ambitious...and the wicked witch of the west and the wicked witch of the east. the wicked witch of the west wanted those shoes. she just wanted what was rightfully hers to begin with. she was obviously the closest family member to the wicked witch of the east and had first dibs on all her stuff. the witch of the north stole em and dorothy was her accomplice. and as for the wicked witch of the east, she just wanted to become more powerful. to rule a land, possibly peacefully, possibly not so peacefully, but what ambitious person doesn't want power over others? and dorothy killed the only two ambitious humans in the story. in fact, its people like Glenda who try to create that unambitious world of peace without real happiness. like in Brave New World. the munchkins should be freed!!! let them live where they want! let them wear what they want! don't make them sing ridiculous songs and rhyme so much if they don't want to!! and dorothy who wants nothing more than to "innocently" kill all who get in her way from getting back home to Kansas. the tinman, the scarecrow, and the lion are lucky they aren't humans...she'd kill them too i bet

manipulative female too...convincing them that she loved them so theyd protect her. another "heroin" proven a villian. will it never stop?!!?

don't you agree?

I have to disagree...believe the writers of the original movie were simply using Dorothy as the simple minded scape goat, examining the world's ills, and showing how one poor soul tried to make sense of it all......or it could have just been a horribly realistic nightmare, we all have them!
