wizard of oz
yes, wizard of oz is a fantastical musical about a teenage girl who is transported to the magical world of Oz, where she meets a talking lion, a scarecrow, and a tin man. This is also a tornado movie. If it weren’t for that natural disaster, Dorothy would never have made the trip to Oz, and the movie would have lasted about five minutes. I never thought I’d say this, but thank God there was a tornado in Kansas.

Yes, I know hurricanes aren’t exactly the same as tornadoes, but this movie is too fantastical and absurd to ignore. It’s a hurricane. That’s robbery. It’s a hurricane robbery.
