How can it get any better. Two classic movies for one low price. My 4 year old daughter watches these movies over and over again. I really enjoy watching them with her. Beats the heck out of watching the Wiggles and Barney.

I got these two movies for my granddaughter for Christmas ~ and it is a staple in our home, as well. Who couldn't love this version of Willy Wonka with Gene Wilder? Don't get me started about the "other" Willy Wonka that came out a couple years ago.. that was an atrocity! Gene Wilder is truly a warm, loving mentor in this Willy Wonka movie, and it's just one of those films that leaves you feeling so good inside! Regarding the Wizard of Oz, I've been watching that movie for over 40 years, and watched it with my sons, and now my granddaughter. Willy Wonka and Wizard of Oz are must have's for any good family movie collection. FAST shipping, excellent quality products.

This classic movies shows the importance of the things that really matters in life and is good for new generations to appreciate the art, the real art, of the movies.

First i will review The Wizard Of Oz.Now this movie is a classic.It starts off in black and white,then turns to colour when she goes into the land of Oz.Now the music and costumes in this movie were second to none.The movie itself was made in 1939.I saw this movie way back when i was a kid,and i can tell you it has lost none of its magic.That classic song Somewhere Over The Rainbow is a song that stands the test of time.
Now onto Wily Wonka.First time i saw this movie was in about 1974 at the cinema.I was about 7 and i thought what a sensational movie.Many years later i still like this movie.Some movies you see as a kid,and then when you see as an adult,you see them for what they are,and the magic is not there.But i still enjoy the magic of this movie,and the excitement of winning a golden ticket to see the chocolate factory.
Of coarse entering the factory and watching the children enjoy all the treats,makes you wish you were still a child.Fortunately im a kid at heart and i'd sure love to taste some of those sweets.
One by one the kids disappear till just Charlie and his Grand Pa is left.
Not sure id trust goung up in that wonkavator,but i would like to try some fizzy lifting drink.I'd love an Ever lasting Gobstopper.
The music in the movie is also enjoyable,i think this is a classic that can appeal to the whole family.
