As much as I hate remakes/reboots/etc., Willow was always intended to be some kind of series. I'm surprised it's taken them this long.

I suppose The Goonies will be next, but screw that noise.

Short people are always complaining, but at least they can cast spells.

And only need a short rest to get their slots back. Zing.

Cool trailer

@Aqua-Letifer This is the first I remember hearing about Willow. Was it a movie?

But yeah, cool trailer.

Only the greatest fucking fantasy movie of all time, Mark.

It came out in the 80s. It was supposed to be an ambitious 3-part series, but they ran out of money while making it and it didn't kill at the box office, so the follow-ups were scrapped.

I have a good buddy who LOVED that movie as a kid, in the 80s. Cool soundtrack, too.

[Horace]

Val Kilmer was in the first one, and now he can’t talk right. Seems reckless to make another.

[mark]

@Aqua-Letifer Well, since I have Disney+ I will have to watch this.

I will check out the movie too.

The movie is very 80s. But still awesome.

I don’t get it. I don’t really see anything special that other fantasy/adventure movies haven’t already done. :man-shrugging:

You don't get something related to movies? I'm so surprised!

It's not a cheesily made B-grade Asian rom-com so it might not be up your street, but the movie is a cult classic. The trailer's audience was everyone who saw the original, and they make references to it throughout.

I lived through the 80's. I remember the 80's. And a lot of 80's movies. Willow is not the best fantasy movie of all time. It's not even the best fantasy movie of the 80's.

The best fantasy movie of the 80's is The Princess Bride.

I'm rolling my eyes so hard I might get detached retinas.

If we're talking all-time 80s fantasy, Dark Crystal beats Princess Bride any day, hands down. Freaking Beetlejuice too.

[89th]

I mean, are we forgetting about Star Wars (Empire & Jedi), and ET?

People quote The Princess Bride.

Most people think Willow is a tree with shaggy bark.

Depends on who you hang with, I guess. I chalk this up as a generational handicap on your part.

[Jolly]

I know some 80's nerds think Willow is the ultimate fantasy. But besides you and the other two guys, it's a very small advocacy group.

[George K]

Never saw Willow - I'm not a "fantasy" fan.

Is it worth my retired time?
