The '39 version was too beloved for that to happen (look at the gnashing of teeth that happened with Oz, the Great and Powerful, which was only a prequel not based on any of the Baum books).
I just started reading The Wizard of Oz for the first time and am shocked at how much different it is than the movie portrayal. I would have thought they would follow the book closer than that.
