[White Ajah Fantasy Week] Labyrinth Movie Watch-a-Long

[Mashiara Sedai]

This is a thread to discuss the Labyrinth movie.  Rhea and I will re-watch the film tonight (about 7pm eastern time), and we'll post as we go through.  I'm going to give a spoiler warning right away! 

 

DON'T READ THIS THREAD IF YOU HAVEN'T SEEN THE FILM! 

 

We might talk about all sorts of things as we're watching it.  Read at your own risk!  And add your own thoughts, even if you're not re-watching it with us!

Starting it!

[Rhea]

I never realized before the George Lucas/Lucasfilms was part of this movie!

[Rhea]

Credits.... Ooo, pretty owl!

[Rhea]

Dogs name is Merlin!!! I love that. 

[Mashiara Sedai]

I can trace a ton of my childhood fantasies to this movie!  And a lot of my desires to be a writer!

 

For example, I adore the idea of a faraway Goblin King falling in love with a young woman.  It’s a seed for at least four story ideas I’ve had.  Haha.  I guess it’s not super original, is it.

[Mashiara Sedai]

And why would a goblin king take the form of snow owl?

[Mashiara Sedai]

Also, that was a great entrance by David Bowie!  *lol* 

[Rhea]

Wait, wiat, wait..

 

The goblin says "that's not right, it doesn't even start with I wish." But then afer Sarah says that she wishes she knew the right words to say for the goblins to take Toby away the goblin says the words are "I wish the goblins would come and take you away right now". 

 

Hmmm...

[Rhea]

Sarah's room looks a lot like mine when Iwas her age!

Hmmm...

Sarah first says,  “Goblin King, wherever you may be, take this child of mine far from me.”

 

Then the goblins say her phrase didn’t even start with “I wish,” meaning the one she said didn’t, but the one she’s suppose to say does.

I love her room!

[Mashiara Sedai]

The worm guy is so cute!  I love his scarf!  I want to make a costume of him for my dog to wear for Halloween!

[Mashiara Sedai]

“Come inside and meet the missus.”

 

LOL

I rewound it twice, but didn't get that. haha!

[Rhea]

Sarah takes too many things for granted, Hoggle says. 

[Mashiara Sedai]

Here’s another one!  “Dance magic!”  

 

I have that story all ready to send to a publisher!  This is amazing how much inspiration I’ve taken from this film.

[Rhea]

Haha...they called Hoggle, Hogwart!

[Rhea]

This may be the creepiest part of the whole movie....

[Rhea]

[Rhea]

My favorite part is coming up!

[Rhea]

Sir Didymus! I love that character!

[Mashiara Sedai]

He’s adorable!

 

I have a sudden desire to show this film to my 4th graders at school.  They love fart jokes!

[Rhea]

No Sarah...dont eat the peach!
