The Wizard Of Oz

Listen, without this unscripted line, The Wizard of Oz wouldn’t have been and that means no Wicked either! It was the moment that actress Judy Garland invented, “I’ve got a feeling we’re not in Kansas anymore,” that the entire film changed. Even Bert Lahr, who was the Cowardly Lion, explained, “Before that, everyone on the project understood it was set in Kansas—certainly a very strange part of Kansas, but Kansas nonetheless. I think even Judy was surprised to hear herself saying those words, but as soon as she did, it made so much sense that we were all on board with setting the film in a magical foreign land.” Thus, rewrites were ordered so that the magical, fantasy land of Oz could be constructed. They changed the name from After The Tornado to The Wizard of Oz.

Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man’s Chest

In order to play Captain Jack Sparrow, Johnny Depp needed to get very deep into his drunken pirate character. Much of his work on the franchise was him improvising. Now, to Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man’s Chest, there was that particular scene in which Sparrow taunts Davy Jones. We see Sparrow singing, “I got a jar of dirt!” If you look at both Keira Knightley and Orlando Bloom’s faces, they seem really bewildered. Well, the reason for that is Johnny Depp improvised this nonsense right there and then.
