The Wiz/YMMV


 * Angst? What Angst?: Averted in the movie -- Dorothy is deeply upset to be lost in a Magical Land, and sometimes scared to tears by Oz's darker side.
 * Ear Worm: "Ease on Down the Road" and "Everybody Rejoice (Brand New Day)".
 * "You Can't Win" is pretty catchy too.
 * Ending Fatigue: After Evillene is killed, there's not much story left to tell in both versions, but it still takes several songs to get to the end either way.
 * Funny Aneurysm Moment: The Emerald City is represented by the World Trade Center in the movie.
 * During the second season of American Idol, during the movie theme week, one of the contestants sung "You Can't Win" as their choice which didn't agree with the judges. In the following elimination round, he was knocked out of the running.
 * Vindicated by History: The film is viewed a bit more positively nowadays (especially among the black community), to the point where it has become something of a Cult Classic. Though there's still plenty of people that view it as a bad film, you're just as likely to find people that like it and defend it.
 * Wangst: Don't do a Drinking Game of how many times Dorothy sobs piteously. You'll be passed out after 30 minutes.
