Great film.

Can anyone remember how the puzzle the 2 doorknobs gave her went?, it was something about "1 of us tells only the truth whereas the other only lies", what was the solution to find the right door? :confused:

You could only ask one question of one of them....

"one of us will always tell the truth, but the other one will always lie"

so she asked

"if i asked him if he told the truth what would he say"

ihe said yes

therefore if he was lieing he would have told her he said yas anyhow, however if he was the one tellign the truth he would admit that he would ahhhhhhhhh fuck its to complicated.....my head hurts

Actually they did a similar thing in Mirrormask; perhaps in Jim Henson's honour.

But it still didn't stop you liking it hey!, still a fantasy of yours perhaps ;)

I just like the puppets. :rolleyes: I would love to work with any Henson puppets though my preference is for Sesame street. :D

The book is 50x better I'm afraid.

i should say so, did you see what happened to the kid when he read it? he went into some magical world with flying dragons and shit. i'd say the book was 1000000x better.

Yep, although they did attempt to do the Middle book with Neverending Story 2, but most of the story was obliterated beyond recognition.

The author also wrote a cracking book called Momo
 
The Time Bandits pissed all over Labyrinth

From a rather high up height

IMHO of course
 
oooh - hello poului - we're on the same thread together and we're talking about the same thing! :cool:

But I have to go home now :(

Have fun with the fantasy fillims y'all.

*only if the goblin king is david bowie of course :)

I BLOODY LOVE THIS FILM!!!!!!! :cool:

Its great for the following reasons:

DAVID BOWIE and his rather lovely trouser bulge *swoons*
Great songs
Great characters
David Bowie
The cute furry worms, the rocks, the scary things that take their heads off.


Seconded. I remember going to the pictures to see this coz how often do you get to see a bulge like that that size!! :eek: :D :o

I also have this on video, could be dvd, could be both.

Time Bandits is good but has a fairly different from the target audience to Labyrinth imo.
 
watch this!

I'm with shells here - this film was NOT about the bloody muppets... :rolleyes:

this film was about being a teenaged girl and wanting to be taken by david bowie in a dangerous and dirty way.

my mate and i swore we'd only date blokes who wore makeup, after we went through our labyrinth phase.

god he was lush.

you just couldn't believe she turned him down for The Ugliest Baby In The World. :confused:


Oh and, the dress she's wearing at the beginning (iirc?) before she gets home late? I wanted that dress soooooo badly.

initially tempted by option 4 (huh huh huh :D ) went for option 5 - love this film to bits.
Wicked scene from the ball....

Oh god - the completely phallic masks all around her at the ball.....I'd forgotten how brazen parts of it are.

Or am I trying to over intellectualise it? :o

:D i should have known we were destined to be mates :D and yeah Toby was not a cute baby.
 
Yes, I only watched it around 300 times as a kid, so it had very little impact on me really.






:eek: :D
 
Amazingly (I'm a massive DB fan) I only saw it for the first time very recently. Really enjoyed it, as did the kids.

The Princess Bride craps all over every film mentioned in this thread though.
