The Wonderful Wizard of Oz: 25th Anniversary

Watch your Closed Captions
The TV show is fine, it is a good introduction to the sequel novels and the original Oz novel. That is precisely why I purchased this set to introduce Oz to a special child. What I am disappointed and pointing out in this review is on the disk content. The first copy I received had the closed captioning for another movie, one that has adult language and situations. I thought the disk with a few scratches had been tampered with even though it was NEW through Amazon. I contacted customer service and received a replacement set, no scratches- same movie closed captioning. I tried it on other players same result.

Great Item
I used to watch these movies on TV as well as rent them on Videocassette growing up. A great item to add to your collection or as a gift to someone who is a Oz fan. If you enjoyed the original Wizard of Oz as a child, you'll also enjoy watching these 4 movies on two discs.

It's cheaper than the 4 disc set, but where are the extras?
I've loved this series since I was a little kid so I'm pleased to see it re-released and cut down to 2 discs to mark the 25th anniversary, but I've got a bit of a bone to pick with Lightyear Entertainment. Why aren't there any extras? It's been a over a decade since the original edited VHS releases so why no behind the scenes bonus material, an interview with the cast, or even a quick run through of Baum and the history of the Oz books? Well I guess you can't have it all and this is better than nothing so if you're interested, give it a go. Now if we could only get all 52 episodes on DVD....

Classic anime dub easily accessible
If you liked the original animated series adaptation of Wizard of OZ on HBO and want to enjoy some of that nostalgia at a good price without the 52 episode commitment. This is perfect. It contains the entire series, abridged into 4 solo movies centered around the first four books of the series. If you're a fan of the OZ books, or classic anime dubs, this might be a good fit! Though die hard Oz fans might be sad see some of the violence toned down and some liberties taken to the story, but this is a fairly faithful adaptation of the books.That being said, this collection isn't perfect. The sound and video quality aren't amazing and the subtitles are not for this product and are hilariously inappropriate for a children's series - complete with cursing nad explicit situations. For the price, it's hard to feel cheated though!

Excelente serie
Es muy buena serie. Lo único que solo viene en idioma ingles. Solo que la serie viene narrada. Seria bueno que sacaran con su idioma original en japones y también con audio en español latino y subtítulos.
