As a kid I loved this movie (mostly for the completely random bits, though it still annoys me that the question to the lying doors is not the correct one!). This video thankfully helped me resolve the questionable issues this movie caused me - I always felt I was secure in my sexuality but that 'package' was what I remembered most. Good to know that was something that transcended gender so it's not something I need to worry about.
A+ Chick! Please say the lesbian overtones are a lie! There is such a small pool of decent women it would suck!

Nice to see you back in action, Lindsay. This is a great review and no I don't mind the uhh penis jokes. It's been a slew of those kinds of jokes thanks to Watchmen reviews.
Anyway, good to see you back and nice review of a weird, weird movie!

03.22.2009 - 17:28 | StoneOSirideain - i guess im a geek
me and my friends do that you remind me of the babe thing all the time
Do as i say and I will be your slave-the most contradictory movie line of all time.
I always picture the baby's real life mother standing on the set being distracted by the director's assistant so she won't notice David Bowie hurling the infant 20 feet into the air. Funny.

Great to have you back NChick. I missed your reviews and I'm glad you did this movie. Have it, loved it, and think the review of it is awesomely funny. Especially loved the D&D mockery bit. Can't wait for your next review. Hope you do Thumbelina next. >_>;;;
Still sexy as always. ~_^

In response to a few posts before:
Actually Toby was the real life son of the artistic consultant of this film, Brian Froud. All of the Goblins are based on his art. (The baby was named Freddie before Toby was brought into the mix.) Most of the 'The Making Of' videos that exist seem to show his mom and dad kind of cool with the 'stunts' that their son goes through.Great review! And yes, Bowie can survive even something as silly as this... The man who can pull off a mullet, the 'great white duke' days and the Glass Spider tour can survive anything... even muppets! Looking forward to seeing more from you. Welcome back!

Good to see you back and in top form. Glad that someone finally reviewed this essential movie lol.

I was wondering if you would ever be back ^.^
My favorite movie ^o^
That baby looks like the spawn of Freddie Kreuger!
Young David Bowie!

Well, you didn't QUITE rip into the movie as much as I had hoped (I REALLY don't enjoy this thing...) but you pointed out many of the glaring shortcomings (shut up!) that it has, so I'm still placated. I especially always hated how the movie seems to follow its characters' journey to a T. Which is to say, as you point out, that when they're moving, so is the plot, and when they stop, it does too. It's like NOTHING goes on for half the movie. And when they're running around going crazy...the plot makes even less progress, somehow. I don't know.
So, was that pseudo-intellectual post enough to get me some drooling internet fanboy credits? Yeah? Okay then.
I think seeing the Nostalgia Chick drooling over Bowie, and then the banana thing, may have been one of the biggest turn ons I've ever experienced. Lindsay...I must have you...
I mean, um, hey, look over there! A distraction! *runs away to Benny Hill music*

You'd be surprised just how many U.S. states have the official Age of Consent at 16.
Wow... is that really I have to comment on? Good thing there's a edit button when I think of something worthwhile.
-
03.24.2009 - 17:04 | Xatike
Yup. Michigan is one of those states.
Which makes us ALL wonder:
WHY?
But thanks for reviewing this. I have wanted to see this movie just because it falls under the "cult classic" category.Now, I am not so sure.

04.20.2009 - 02:17 | LittleLottie
Yes,but...in the book,Sarah's...15?
Not judging anyone,just saying.

This was BY FAR your least refined, yet sexiest review. I quite like it this way...
(but maybe it was just the Bowie)

Labyrinth is one of my oldest favorite movies, i actually saw it for the first time in the theater as a kid.
Lateron (being a hetero sexual guy) i even noticed Bowie's balls a lot.
I never really liked the girl in this movie, she acted like a 12 year old.
This review really did it... I love you Nostalgia Chick!
Are you still single?
-
03.22.2009 - 17:57 | Grimlock - LARP has moved on
Well most of it has in Denmark where i live we got a group called Einherjerne
And well lets just say the way they run larp is a little different then there.
Basically the rule is (for the most part) if you can then you can.If you can steal that guys purse/leather pouch without him noticing it well then you can.
So yeah in Denmark Larp has for the most part moved beyond such things as lightning bolt lightning bolt, though some groups still makes lives with so many rules that you almost need to carry a rulebook with you to remember them all.
But for the most part we moved beyond lightning ball attacks

Though a funny thing, in Denmark there are actually more members of Roleplaying club then sports clubs.
But all in all not a bad review.

03.22.2009 - 18:03 | Erinaceus - WTF?!
... A movie... directed by Jim Henson... produced by George Lucas... with a script by Terry Jones... starring David Bowie... Muppets... and the love interest from Ang Lee's film "Sulk" (er, I mean, "Hulk"
...... I am at a loss for words here. Who would this movie possibly be targeted to? Is it something like that Scott Baio joke where both guys and gals can masturbate to Bowie and because of the absurdity and androgyny, no one would feel gay? I don't know. I never saw this film, and I'm glad!
-
03.22.2009 - 18:06 | AngryJoeShow - I decided
Thats it,
After this video, I have decided to make Nostalgia Chick Mine!!!
Steps for "together-ness".
#1. Destroy David Bowe
#2. Buy Her Shiny Trinkets & Compliment her, lots and lots of Compliments.
#3. World Domination!WA-LA!
-AngryJoe Wins AGAIN!

-
03.22.2009 - 20:49 | SpazzMaster
Well, I'm sorry to say Joe, but first, you'll have to get through me.

-
03.28.2009 - 18:19 | laughingman - You sure?
The Nostalgia Chick is hot and funny...
but after what she did with the banana at the very end of the video I won't fight you for her.

-
04.22.2009 - 06:44 | Opera Guy - Back off Joe!!!!!
Hey man we may both love games but you ain't gettin' her.
She's mine....
-
03.11.2010 - 19:23 | Sheranda - David Bowe?
Why would you want to destroy the guy who was Bob on UHF?
I know who you're talking about.

03.22.2009 - 18:08 | draco darts

Ironically, I think Jennifer Connelly was the first one where I started noticing "the difference." Not in this movie, though - in The Rocketeer.

03.22.2009 - 18:17 | Rimjob
ya the David Bowie jokes were kinda weird but other than that it was pretty good.
-
03.22.2009 - 18:18 | rubydynamite
Yay! New Nostalgia Chick! I have to say, even when I was a kid and watched this one, I was completely, madly obsessed with Jareth. David Bowie's performance just made this movie - no doubt about it.
Ooh! And I also have a suggestion as to another movie you should check out - [url=http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0091534/]Modern Girls[/url]! It's a movie from 1986 and actually stars some pretty notable actors in a before-they-really-made-it sense, including Virginia Madsen and Daphne Zuniga! Oh, and also Clayton Rohner, who starred in [url=http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0089393/]Just One of the Guys[/url], which is kinda like Boys Don't Cry, but tragic in a totally different and mediocre way.
