I think Labyrinth is a truly exceptional film. I once had a theory it was all about Sarah's first period...but I forget the details of that critique now! :lol: |

my favourite scenes in Labyrinth are where Sarah meets the little catapilla when she enters the labyrinth for the first time, He's stood in a hole in a wall wearing a scarf and i think a flat cap and he's asking her to come in a meet the missus, pure genius and my other fave scene is the magic dance song where Bowie or as he's named in the film Jareth the goblin king is singing and the Goblins are tossing toby around in the background....i've seen this film way to many times what can i say im a sucker for anything Henson related... |
I like the "false bedroom" scene. I think it's the key scene in the film where Sarah realises that she can't just go back to her safe childhood (the bedroom) and that she has to face growing up and all its scariness (her selfish, ugly desire to stay a child represented by the witch laden with baggage) and rescue Toby (symbol of the good things about being an adult woman). Exceptional scene. Edited, because I just remembered the scene better! :lol: |
"'ello" "Did you just say 'Hello'?" "Nah, I said 'ello, but that's close enough." :pound: How can anyone NOT like Jim Henson?! The man was a genius! Does anyone remember the TV show 'Muppets Tonight'? I used to watch it religiously as a kid - watched it on the tv, recorded it, and watched it non-stop all week! :pound: "We've got a show to do, guaranteed brand new, so click on the Muppets, click on the Muppets, click on the Muppet's Tonight." Woooo! |

The original The Muppet Show was essential viewing in our house. Suppose I was about 6 or so when it first appeared. I still have The Muppet Show and The Muppet Show 2 albums on vinyl from back then. |
here is a rundown of my Henson/muppet related ownage.... Muppet Christmas Carol VHS Muppet Christmas Carol DVD (cut) The Great Muppet Capper DVD Muppet's Take Manhatten DVD Muppet Show season 1 DVD Kermit: the Swamp Years VHS It's A Very Merry Muppet Christmas Movie DVD Muppet Treasure Island VHS Labyrinth DVD Dark Crystal, The: 2 disc anniverary edition DVD Assorted Muppet Babies Episodes Recorded from Nickelodeon and Channel 5 Totally forgot about Star Wars - all original creatures including Yoda were made by Henson Studios. i did own Elmo's Adventures in Grouchland too but even i'm too old for that, it did have the awesome Mandy Patinkin in it though. Wakka Wakka Herdy Gerdy indeed... |
Growing up, every morning was dedicated to Danger Mouse, Robotech, and The Muppet Show. Those were great times. :biggrin: As for Labyrinth, it is a terrific film and Bowie is excellent! |

For me it was Thundercats, Transformers, M.a.s.k and He-man with abit of Roland Rat on the side. but mainly the muppets of course... |
LOL Those shows were requisite viewing in the afternoon along with G.I. Joe and Jem and the Holograms. All these talks really make me reminisce. |
When it comes to badly edited anime on GB kids' TV I am afraid I go back to Marine Boy. Oddly I loved that programme as a kid but don't really like anime now! Ah, Marine Boy, The Mole (Krtek) and Mary Mungo and Midge...that's what being off sick was all about! |

I've set up a new thread under 'General Chat' so we can solely discuss childhood favs. You never know, someone might jog a few memories for you. |
Ooooh nice idea Ant! |
Just watched Don't Answer The Phone! (thanks again Daemonia). I bought it mainly because of the 'DON'T' title as well as the reputation I had heard it had. I thought it was pretty good really, nowhere near as sleazy as I was thinking it would be and I don't really see why it was cut so much (I saw the uncut version). There's hardly any gore, although there's a lot of nudity. I'm pretty sure it would get through uncut here, no problem - tho I'm no expert on this obviously. :laugh: There were a few comedy scenes which I weren't really expecting to see either. Overall, I enjoyed it a lot, glad I own it now finally. |
The uncut version is a lot stronger than the one released by ABUK.:nod: |
I've got the BCI Eclipse one mate. And to be honest, I didn't think it was that bad at all. Meh. |
Same as mine,but did you ever see the AB release? |
I just watched Shriek Show's Creatures From The Abyss...Goshdarned weirdest film I think I have ever seen! It's....it's just bizarre!!! :confused::suspicious::eek: |

I tired to watch Repo: The Genetic Opera last night but couldnt get past the first 20mins. I found the songs to be annoying (I like alot of other musicals just wasnt a fan of these songs) and there was way too much poor cgi for my liking. Its annoying cause I liked the concept and the comic book opening that set up the film. Should I give it another try? Does it get better futher in? |

Watch it again if you want - its definetly an aquired taste imo. |
I know this is going to be a big stretch, but has anyone ever seen a 1976 Austrailian film called Oz? I think it's also known as 20th Century Oz and Oz- A Rock 'N' Roll Musical. Here's the trailer and a clip that may jog your memory... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KJD8xFpvuiw http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fvic4nRxomI Any help will be briliant! I can't even find the DVD of it ANYWHERE! :doh: |

I'm not a fan of CEX at all. Bought The Wrestler in there once, fella puts the disc in, holding it with his thumb on the underside of the disc. :doh: Big thumbprint on there. It still works but I just get the feeling all the people who work there are knobheads, the one I went to anyway. I last watched Benny's Video. Classic Haneke. |
