It's amazing the choreography that went into that little changing of the guard's routine there. It's not on screen for but five seconds but they probably filmed what was essentially a military dance routine in its entirety. It's that level of detail that makes a movie an excellent movie.
Contrary to popular belief, a lot of the filming of this movie was actually rushed so that Victor Fleming wouldn't miss the opportunity to direct 'Gone with the Wind' that very same year.
@@ProfessorChocolateCake I'd have to look into that; but as far as the whole sequence in the Winkie Country is concerned, all the sets had been built by the time Fleming came to direct the picture; Richard Thorpe, originally hired to direct "Wizard," had already shot some footage at the castle; this was when Buddy Ebsen was still playing the Tin Woodman and Judy Garland had been put in a blonde wig to make her look more like the literary Dorothy Gale. As for the Winkie soldiers, they were no doubt put through their paces not by Fleming, but by the choreographer.

Actually, Lars sung the riff(this on the video) to James (or Dave) back in the Ron's garage! There's a demo you can listen to this, Lars sing the riff to one of them, and he(James or Dave, probably James) starts immediately to play this, the riff of 'Frayed Ends of Sanity'. But, I don't know why, they only recorded this in '88. Lars always liked the movies, he's even acting in some movies nowadays!

You mean Metallica drew inspiration from one of the most famous and iconic moments in film history? Well, consider MY mind blown! I suppose next you'll tell me that the hyenas from The Lion King were inspired by Nazis!
They were because Walt Disney attended meetings with American Nazis and apparently was a Nazi as a lot of rumours and labelled him a National Socialist without proof.
@kenzio9292 Audiences have claimed to hear various lyrics to the "Winkie Chant" performed by the Wicked Witch of the West (Margaret Hamilton)'s guards. They include "All we own, we owe her"; "Oh we love the old one"; and "Oh we loathe the old one." The screenplay shows that the correct lyrics are "O-Ee-Yah! Eoh-Ah!." The chant acts as a sort of audio inkblot.
Superjackster01 got it right, phonetically. In the actual movie script, they are singing, "O-wee-o Wee-oh-um." Of course, it was supposed to sound Russian. Communism and Naziism were both foreign threats to Western and European stability. Russia is naturally dark and scary by Western sounds and taste anyhow I've ALWAYS loved their sound and armor -- wished that the Orks in the second Lord of the Rings movie could have done a cameo/spoof.
When my sisters and I were both babies/toddlers/small children my dad would once in a while carry each one on his shoulders or back and he would utter the “yoo wee oh yooooooo oooh” chant thing. When I was around 3 or 4 and we watched the wizard of Oz for the first time and it came to the wicked witches Winkie guards chanting the same thing, I got the impression that this was where my dad got the inspiration.
If you didn't know it, the marchers were U.S. Marines from 29 Palms California. All of them were deployed to the pacific during WWII and only one survived the war.
I noticed that quite some time ago and I had posted a comment on youtube. A guy answred me back that the chant was 'all we own, we owe'. And was a chant used by some protesters in the 1930's financial collapse.
