Man, yesterday it was the dog in I Am Legend, today it's Artax. Rough movie week for Simone.

jmundt33a

Welcome to your friendly luck dragon on a cover.

ShoNuff3000

Did Simone play the Empress when she was a kid? Looks just like her. Ok, she's too young. Never-ending mind.

Someone please explain why the snail rider has a different voice than when I first watched in the 80's. Now he has a southern accent? I know this movie had different releases because it's German made.

jmundt33a

Artax is rough, but somehow “They look like strong hands, don’t they?” Is even more gutting.

Matthew Wabals

Oh Shit Simone’s heart is gonna get ripped out ….

There is a bit of a resemblance. Just a bit of weird Dune interconnectedness for Simone and George: the girl who plays the Childlike Empress in the sequel also plays Irulan in the Syfy releases of “Dune” and “Children of Dune”.

Will Sofer

To George: this is indeed based on a book. Specifically, it’s a German book, with the same title (“Die unendliche Geschichte” in German). And yes, the band took their name from the character Atreyu. They’re fans. This film was huge back in the day. I’m not sure anything that was this level of high fantasy had been released before for younger audiences, and the fact that it was also sometimes quite dark also contributed to its popularity (at least that was my perception back in the day).

Pam Nail

Artax and the Swamps of Sadness - traumatizing children (and grown-ups) for the last 40 years.

Ian Hunt

Appreciating George robbing Lionel Hutz lines

Jason Pratt

I hate trying to sync up but this one might require a full watch along!

Jeff K

George: yes, the band Atreyu is named after the character in this movie.

Byron Abrahams

I got a beautiful hardcover copy of the book a couple days ago. I'm so happy. Haven't reread it in a decade.

Mastervodo

We all need a flying dragon puppy in our lives.

Patrick Evans

Part 2 is good and I don't really remember much of 3. I honestly would love to rewatch 3 but it is so hard to find

Unfortunately the author really hated this adaptation. Apparently they rewrote the script during production without telling him, so much so that he demanded they either halt production or change the title. They did neither, he sued and lost. He later called the film a "gigantic melodrama of kitsch, commerce, plush, and plastic"

FWPJR.

I watched this movie over and over again as a kid, and I loved it. So I’m looking forward to seeing if you two feel the same way, I’m ready to watch this reaction.

I don't care for Legend overall, but everyone should see Tim Curry's performance in that movie.

I didn't even know there were parts 2 or 3. And I certainly wasn't expecting to see Jack Black of all people when I googled 'em just now. Apparently, they're all available for purchase on Amazon Prime Video.

Awesome80s

Yup Hello childhood trauma with Artax...

Adam K

Totally unrelated to this film, but I’d love to see reactions to Michael Clayton and Million Dollar Baby - neither very light but both amazing.

Jeb Manning

One i'd recommend from the same director is the 1985 science fiction drama movie Enemy Mine, starring Dennis Quaid and Louis Gossett Jr., if that's OKay? It's about a human and an alien who crash land on a hostile planet and have to put aside their hatred for each other in order to survive. It's a really touching story and a great science fiction movie 🙂

They watched the German version of the film. It's really a pain to try to keep it in sync on this one. Scenes throughout the movie or a tiny bit longer on their copy.

DracJeriba

Reaction to Das Boot (Director's Cut, 1997) will be coming soon, right?

pedantech

We need Willow (1988)!

Guy-on-Couch

Simone not crying when Artax dies is the biggest surprise

Logan Kerlee

xD I didn't see my name in the credits! Saw two or three other people named Logan but none were me. DansGame

Seahag

Super happy you guys finally got to see this, though super weird it was the early cut with different voice overs lol

Seahag

Also for a series, you guys really, really need to check out Delicious in Dungeon(Dungeon Meshi). Really different take on the dungeons and dragons setting that I think you’d find still fun and refreshing. Currently running on Netflix.

Aaron Gunstone

On the one hand, I love how this looks and feels, some really great practical effects for the time. On the other, it misses a lot of depth from the book, and cuts out the entire second half of the story, where Bastian goes to Fantasia mk2 and essentially becomes its creator. Or well, it glosses over that in no time at all. A flawed classic.

Nick Kessler

Still the saddest animal death scene in any movie ever.

Franz Nepomuk

this is based on a famous german childrens book, by author Michael Ende. He also wrote a lot of other german childrens classics (some of them were also turned into movies). The second half of the book is very important, though. it shows Bastian getting drunk with power in fantasia. —- and by the way, since i grew up in munich, we took regular class trips to the „Bavaria Film“ lot, where I in fact did ride the dragon (although it is mostly its head thats on display there)

Grandalf

A movie in the same vein as this: Legend, starring Tom Cruise, Mia Farrow (I believe) and Tim Curry in a role that he was born for.

overdev

the movie is probably one of the best known german ones out there that is even based on a german fantasy book. I visited the Bavarian Film Studios in Germany where a lot of scenes (like the swamp) was filmed, heard really cool trivia there. They even have Falcor (the original german name is Fuchur) there on which you can sit on, sadly it's really the original and they messed up his look in a major way, he looks now like a bootleg version of himself...

Happy Hanukkah

I really meant to watch this, but then I was convinced otherwise. :-P From Wikipedia: Ebert's co-host Gene Siskel said that the special effects and art direction were cheap-looking and that Falkor the luckdragon resembled the stuffed toy. He also referred to Noah Hathaway as a "dullard" and said that the film was "much too long", even after Ebert pointed out that the film was only 90 minutes. ... Vincent Canby panned the film as a "graceless, humorless fantasy for children" in a 1984 review in The New York Times. Canby's criticism charged that parts of the film sounded like 'The Pre-Teenager's Guide to Existentialism'. He further criticized the "tacky" special effects and that the construction of the dragon looked like an impractical bathmat.

Jinyatta

This movie and the Dark Crystal are among the most memorable films of my childhood

This movie is one of the many examples of how an utterly amazing book can be turned into frivolous trash when adapted to film. Beyond the psychological process of coming to terms with grief, the book itself takes the reader on a deeply spiritual journey. Many who have read Michael Ende's works know that he is not actually writing for young people, delving into some of the deepest explorations of the multi-varied meanings of existence, the nature of consciousness, and the relationship between language and the ways we construct the realities within which we live out a meaningful life.
