    "I have asked certain users on Spout to recommend a movie to me. I will be blogging about these films as I watch them. This film was recommended to me by laurabot Wendy and Lucy I do not know laurabot all that well, but have conversed with her about movies on a couple occasions. She has her own distinctive taste which I appreciate. She gave me quite a few different suggestions for films to see, many of which I had heard of and have wanted to see anyways, so I kind of felt like she was in tune with what I was looking for. I was considering seeing Labyrith since I hear so many cultural references to it, even today and feel embarrassed I still have never seen it. And laurabot urged me so much that I do need to see it. I did however ultimately chose Wendy and Lucy since it had been stuck in my head ever since I saw the trailer for it.&n " [More]
    SpoutBlogSpoutBlog 10 Defenses for Howard the Duck

    "If you buy the kids only one new video release this week, make it Pinocchio. Obviously. But if you have enough spending money to buy two, pick up Howard the Duck as well. Finally on DVD in America (with a Special Edition no less), the infamous flop is anything but a great film. Yet it is hardly one of the worst films of the 1980s, despite its reputation. For the past 23 years, I’ve stood by my childhood love for Howard the Duck, constantly acknowledging that I even owned Ellis Weiner’s novelization of the film. Technically, the best reason to defend the movie’s existence is that it directly led to the creation of Pixar. But this reason doesn’t influence anyone to watch the thing. So, in order to defend the movie’s onscreen worth, I’ve come up with ten points for why you should pick up the new Howard the Duck disc and not feel at all guilty about doing so. < " [More]

    "(photo: La Jetée, Hellboy II: The Golden Army) Guillermo del Toro’s Hellboy II: The Golden Army hits theaters this Friday. Del Toro is a rare filmmaker who, despite his unique vision, often works on projects based on material from an outside source (Pan’s Labyrinth being a notable exception). Assuming all the legal issues get ironed out,  he’ll next direct a two part film adaptation of Tolkien’s The Hobbit, the most prestigious property to date to get the del Toro treatment. Here are seven either failed or unjustly obscure movies ripe for being remade by Hellboy’s father. [More]

    "Aside from being bombarded with David Bowies genitals every so often, this movie was awesome. It's got great music, puppets, a huuuuuuuuuge maze, and of course the awesome David Bowie. Sweet. I love this movie. <3 " [More]

    "Release Year: 1986Director: Jim Henson *****There is no time in movie history that was more creative, more free wheeling, more wacky than the 1980s. Every studio in the land wanted a fantasy film to cash in the success of Star Wars. Even Jim Henson, the Muppet Master. He had already given us the 100% muppet fantasy film The Dark Crystal and a couple years later, added humans and pop music to the equation with Labyrinth. Starring David Bowie and a very young Jennifer Connolly, Labyrinth tells the tale of Sarah (Connolly) wishing away her baby brother Toby in a moment of weakness and beginning a quest to recover him. Along the way, she befriends muppets...er, creatures from this strange land including a small trollish man and a big lumbering brute. Labyrinth succeeds in most of the places The Dark Crystal failed for one simple reason: humans are on the screen. Humans who can emote, who lend the finished product an air of reality, " [More]

    "When I saw the title of Olly Richardson’s rant on The Empire Blog asking if CG has killed our imaginations, I presumed he meant filmmakers’ imaginations and how special effects are less creative when done with the ease of computer graphics. But no, he’s really talking about our imaginations, meaning me and you and everyone we know. I’d never given it too much thought, but maybe modern audiences are really losing their ability to believe at the movies: We never used to be so picky. If somebody watches the original King Kong or any of the works of Ray Harryhausen, you will never hear them complain about how the skeletons were a bit jerky or that the big ape’s fur didn’t blow realistically when he was climbing the Empire State Building (if they do complain, however, you should feel free to shoot them on the grounds of wrongness and philistinism). You just watch the film, acknowledge that what you are seeing couldn’t possibly exist, admire the artistry it took to create it and choose t ... " [More]

    "I adored this movie when I was younger, I used to watch it all the time. I had not watched it for at least 15 years but just watched it last night and I still love it. It is a lot more "cheesy" now that I am an adult but it is just one of those movies for me that no matter how bad it might actually be will always remind me of being a kid. " [More]

    "Wow, I didn't realize that this movie was from the 80s since I didn't see it until more that a decade after it was released. Sad. When I first saw this movie I was a young teenager and I totally wanted David Bowie's sexiness. I was disappointed with the ending because I believed that the Goblin King should have been able to win over the girl's heart as he won over mine. Grrr. Yeah, I did watch this movie agian years later, and I really had to ponder over why I found Bowie so attractive. LOL But this movie is still one of my favorites. I'm not a "muppets" fan, but Jim Henson did a wonderful thing for everyone with his mind's creations. " [More]
