We've been comparing some apples and oranges today. Let's discuss something within the same genre/sub-genre at least. 80's children's fantasy Jim Henson puppet films. If someone want's to start a Never Ending Story vs Time Bandits or an E.T. vs Mac and Me thread be my guest.
Easily Dark Crystal. Looking back, there was some messed up **** going on there. That & Time Bandits were my 2 favorite fantasy movies as a kid.
Never saw Dark Crystal. Labyrinth had Jennifer Connelly in it. That's enough to get the win. The entire movie is on YouTube. I watched it about a month or two ago.
Man did it ever, I want to build a time machine and go back and slap my parents in the face back then for making me watch it. The puppets scared the hell out of me.
The Dark Crystal was AWESOME. Don't get me wrong, Labyrinth was cool... but Dark Crystal owns on everything.
"You remind me of the babe. What babe? The babe with the power. What power? The power of voodoo. Who do? You do. Do what? Remind me of the babe." Labyrinth for me. I'd love to have that on Blu-ray.
