Revealing mistake: When the doorman initially refuses to let Dorothy and friends into the Emerald City, they protest, saying the Good Witch of the North sent her; they show him the ruby slippers as proof. As the camera pans down to the slippers, look at the yellow brick road Dorothy is standing on - it is flat and looks as though it was simply painted.
Continuity mistake: Just after Dorothy takes the cruller and before singing "Over the Rainbow", as she walks along the side of the building and Aunt Em says the words, "Help us out today," notice the wagon wheel leaning against the corner of the structure. Also notice that the fence just beyond the wheel has a broken top rail. Two shots later, a paddle appears and is now leaning against the wheel, and the fence is repaired. (00:05:15)
Continuity mistake: Prior to the Tin Man's dance after he's saved by Dorothy and the Scarecrow, there is a shot of Dorothy with the Scarecrow and the Scarecrow is holding the oil can. The camera turns to the dancing Tin Man and when it turns back to Dorothy and the Scarecrow, the oil can has somehow ended up in Dorothy's hand basket.
Continuity mistake: During most of the movie, all the characters have at least three shadows, and when the guy that guards the entrance to the Wizard first goes in to speak with him, he has at least 4 or 5.
Revealing mistake: When the Wicked Witch throws the ball of fire at the Scarecrow, you see the Tin Man get down on his knees and take off his hat to put out the fire. If you look really closely, you can see several hairs on the Tin Man's head.
Continuity mistake: During the Tin Man dance, Toto switches from one side of the Tin Man to the other side without walking there.
Continuity mistake: Dorothy raises her right arm and points at the horizon and cries, "There's Emerald City!", then lowers her arm. A shot later from the angle shot from behind, it's raised again and she's repeating all previous movements. (00:54:41)
Continuity mistake: When Dorothy wakes up in Kansas, Prof. Marvel sneaks up in the window behind. Dorothy's pigtails change positions between shots.
Revealing mistake: When Dorothy bumps into the Tin Man, she knocks on his foot, which sounds metallic. However, her fist sinks, revealing it is made of a soft material.
Visible crew/equipment: When the gang runs into the guard at the door, they all walk to the right of the screen to talk to him. While they're walking, you can see the shadow of the boom mic following them.
Revealing mistake: The moment before the Wicked Witch picks up the red hourglass to throw at Dorothy n friends, the flying monkey next to her is suddenly a miniature or reduced in size.
Continuity mistake: During the tornado scene, Dorothy gets knocked out by the windows, but right before the house hits the ground, the windows are back and intact.
Continuity mistake: When the Wicked Witch leans down to see the ruby slippers sticking out from under the house, she is pointing down at them, and practically touches them. But in the subsequent shots, she is in her standing spot from prior, pointing between Dorothy and the house.
Continuity mistake: When the witch is making her way towards the house a shadow disappears and reappears.
Other mistake: When the witch approaches Dorothy and Glinda, her legs are white, not green.
Continuity mistake: Dorothy's giant lollipop disappears after the witch appears.
Continuity mistake: When Prof. Marvel holds the photograph, his fingers disappear in the close-up.
Continuity mistake: As the Professor is revealed behind the curtain, his right hand is busily working one of the silver levers. A second later, it's working one of the red levers above the big dial.
Continuity mistake: When the Tin Man is levitated and falls to the ground the metal covering his left leg is crumpled up. When we see him again from behind as the flying monkeys attack, the metal covering his leg has never been bent. The metal on his lower back has also been repaired since the fall. (01:14:05 - 01:15:05)
Continuity mistake: If you look at the cracks in the floor, the Wicked Witch's cape moves between shots after she is "melted". (01:26:45)
Answer: In all likelihood, probably not. Water is often depicted and represents purity, and cleansing. It flows smoothly, is beautiful, clear, and responsible for life on Earth. Everything the Wicked Witch is not. Where as the good Witch is pure and of a true heart. So it makes sense that something so evil and impure as the evil witch would be effected by the purest substance there is, yet not harm the good witch because she is good.
