And sometimes it slips past anyway. I recall a YouTuber who was analyzing Mulan's accuracy was actually talking with animation directors. And when it was pointed out the family was eating dinner at an empty table one was all "Yeah... that was my bad. Whoops."

This happens all the time in animation. Sometimes off model or animation goofs were caused by the animators not given enough time to look over it and/or fix it. Or they had to reuse cels because of the timeframes.

This is why people in Magic School Bus sometimes changed places in the bus.

I remember the time I was a mod on a gaming forum.

Everyone sucked up to the mods cause they were mods and they wouldn't ban you or give you ban strikes if they liked you. Well I wasn't like that... And was demoted cause people kept complaining I enforced the rules. 🙄

There was a big "Don’t rock the boat - lest you be the one thrown off" mentality. I remember when my BIL took me, my sister, and one of his brothers to a local MTG tournament. When we reported people trying to look down my sister's shirt and try to sneak upskirt photos of others, WE were yelled at.

I actually imagined an original character, but if I were to rewrite this it probably could be.

I did iagine some othr changes like for example the "new witch of the west" using a Gyrocopter. xD

Heck, one thing I imagined was that our protagonist was brought by a Slide-rock-Bolter. cryptidz.fandom.com/wiki/Slide-R...

Buuuut it was never outright confirmed if the bolter took the protagonist to Oz or not. His arrival was a lucky coincidence. Though I did imagine a lot of other changes to Oz
Slide-Rock Bolter
The Slide-Rock Bolter (Macrostoma saxiperrumptus) is a bizarre creature & Fearsome Critter recounted by the lumberjacks of North America during the 19th and early 20th centuries. It is believed to liv...

Yeah, who knows - perhaps there is magic in the world it's from.

Buuuuut when all you have to go on are the occasional people who get sent to Oz via tornado, Umbrellas, Merry-go-rounds, shipwrecks, or earthquakes....

Because in a land with no magic, one with magic will be easily able to bend it into submission. >:P

Ywah I recall some characters have that "Hi I'm this guy now lemme explain my backstory to this person i just met" you saw in romantic works. xD

I joked that was how Frankenstein's monster knew to kill Henry Clerval.

I could revisit that and incorporate that in.

Mrs. Yoop in the Oz one i imagined wanted the protafonist cause he was from outside Oz and I did make one addition to the rules of the Silver Shoes.

They could only take you to where you have been - So Mrs. Yoop wanted to use him to go to Colorado...

Yeah some characters just kinda... Pop in.
November 30, 2025 at 6:47 PM
Yeah, because her magic came from thinkets she's still a green monkey. xP
November 30, 2025 at 6:46 PM
Funny enough I was going to actually make a comment on that. xD

Our kid is given the shoes and is told to make sure they are on TIGHT because they fell off.

When he asks how Dorothy made it home, he was told Dorothy had a VERY rough landing and was lucky she landed in a pile of hay.
November 30, 2025 at 6:45 PM
Yep. Occasionally things might mention things from Marvelous Land of Oz or a few characters like the patchwork girl and the Nome King.

Heck, I had an outline for a plot where a kid went to Oz and his quest was to get the Silver Shoes from Mrs. Yoop who had learned magic once more.
November 30, 2025 at 1:25 AM
Yeah, Wicked rrally shows how much you can't escape the specter of the 1939 movie.
November 30, 2025 at 1:00 AM
Oooh interesting!

Tattypoo was from one of the books.

Well, the first #HugATailDay to be on my birthday in awhile. XD

I don't actually remember the last time it was on a Friday, but I'm sure it's happened at least once or twice in the last 15 years since I picked up #HugATailDay from Toumal.
November 29, 2025 at 3:44 AM
Dragon's Blood. XD That or Egyptian Dragon.

Frankincense and Myrrh will probably make me a frankenstein creature
