This was yet another film that was really great to experience during childhood. It brings back many memories. I always appreciated witnessing the sorcery and other magic scenes in this film as a child; with scenes like the enchanted acorn, and so many more. Plus, much of the scenery was really amazing. The nature scenery was really far out, and I really liked it. Also, there were so many specific scenes in the film that are still amazing to this day. Did you like this film or not? What scenes did you happen to enjoy? This film should be fun to discuss.

I figured I would start things off by presenting one here that may seem insignificant to some, but there is a hidden value to it in terms of humor….. Out of the way, Peck :!:

I've watched that clip so many times in the past. That particular scene I find funny because the guy atop the horse is just so incredibly proud. Those little people (halflings, dwarves, etc) just always get the raw deal in life it would seem...

It amazes me that they never made a sequel to this movie but, given Lucas's recent track record maybe that's a good thing.

I always loved that movie. It makes me want to watch it now. Willow is just one of those "comfort" movies that I can watch over and over and it helps me when stressed or depressed.

Thanks, I just happen to really enjoy how these types of films and other things from the past help to evoke good memories from those times. It's also nice to be able to help other people remember so that they can partake in reflection.

As far as Labyrinth is concerned, I will leave that up to others.

My favorite part will always be the death of General Kael, hands down.
