    One of my all time Favorites Movies. I know everyone loves the Classic The Wizard of Oz. But The Wiz and the 1985 Return To Oz was my two Childhood Favorites 😁

    I had NO idea the Ease on Down #1 was filmed on location. I always pictured Astoria Studios was the location. Great video!

    WoW! Amazing that you got all this info in under 5 minutes! I wanted more! I have always been interested in this particular filming location bcuz of the park and the historical significance of the movie fandom. Once I found out that the bridge is the Meadows Lake bridge over the Long Island Expressway, I became obsessed that I have passed that site several times and didn't even consider the fact that it was there all the time. You actually beat me to it. You did an amazing job - editing. You need more views and subs.

      I did forget to mention him, not on purpose as he was one of the only broadway to movie transfers. I have loved this film for years and am fascinated with how much there is to learn constantly. Thank you for pointing that out I appreciate it

    As a fan of this glorious beautiful film I was already familiar with these filming locations. The Wiz is my favorite movie too ! Hence my UA-cam name. Would have loved to see the full video of you "Easing on Down the Road" 😊

      Lol Maybe when I make part 2, I want to visit Schermerhorn subway station and Coney Island. I have also reached out to Kaufman Astoria Studios it would be wonderful if they respond! *fingers crossed*

      ​@sebsi5833 I think maybe Coney Island, but I'm not 100% sure. They could have just used the Nathan's mural on the shot of any random outside shot. again not quite sure 🤔
