The Wizard of Oz: Great Movie, One Major Flaw

I am not sure why I cannot just appreciate something for what it is. Whether it is a song, a book, a movie or television show, I always seem to find something wrong with it. Perhaps the real problem is there is something wrong with me and not the work. But since I have this habit or flaw of finding something to criticize rather than just enjoying a particular piece I thought I would share my major concern about one of the most famous movies of all time, The Wizard of Oz.

My number one issue with this film is how the Wicked Witch of the West dies, or should I say is killed. This is not the Wicked Witch of the East that the house lands on. Oddly enough though, both witches were the school teacher, the one and only Elmira Gulch (Margaret Hamilton). Talk about a name fitting a character. Anyway, I think it is rather believable that a house landing on anyone witch or not, is fairly certain to do them in. I am speaking about the fact that the Wicked Witch of the West is killed, dies or is melted, whichever you prefer, by a bucket of water.
