It's one of those films you have to see at least once in your lifetime, bb. <3

I remember now! So, Joe didn't actually name his bar Joe's. He named it the Emerald City Bar, because I think Seattle's nickname is the Emerald City, which is named after the fictional city in the Wizard of Oz. Also it might connect to green, i.e, Ireland, (and Irish pubs) i.e, Emerald.

Lesson over.

I'm definitely going to watch that movie once Is it fantasy or what? It kinda sounds so.
Woah, I would never figure it out. It makes sense though. So he named it after the Seattle's nickname

Wow. I didn't realise that Emerald City is the name of the city in The Wizard Of Oz. I always thought it was named Emerald City because of Ireland

Yes people, Joe's bar is actually called The Emerald City Bar. Back in the day the thread title was like this...

http://www.fanforum.com/f210/off-top...egal-62793005/

see?

Here's Joe's blog too Grey's Anatomy: The Emerald City Bar

I'd find a screencap but I'm too lazy for that

ETA: I've never seen The Wizard of Oz either, but it's on my to-watch list.

The lion, tin man and munchkins are freaky, but I still love that movie. I used to see it every year when I was younger.

The lion was the one that got me. I used to hide under the covers when he came on tv.

I also did not know Joe's wasn't called Joe's oops.

Wizard of Oz is defo a film people should see in their lifetime, however I kinda also think that about Sound of Music oh and Dirty Dancing

The remake/weird wizard of oz sequel scared me more than the original
