    I fear for the day Hollywood decides to remake Labyrinth. Amazing movie with some of the greatest puppetry ever. Today it would probably be a 3D CGI crapfest. Also who could ever replace Bowie? Somehow I think they’d get Will Smith in there.

      I don’t know, they did a solid with the Dark Crystal prequel.

      Fun note: we bought a dragon puppet at renfair from a guy who made puppets for Jim Henson’s son.

      We also have the caterpillar and Ludo from Labyrinth on our oddities shelf. Oh, and I named our dog Fizzgig because that’s what he looked like as a pup: all mouthface no body.

      Labyrinth is one of my favs, I rewound the tape so many times it broke. But I don’t see a movie getting made today about a grown man kidnapping a baby so that his 16 year old sister will come be his captive “obedient” lover in his castle where he keeps his riding crops but no horses. Just sayin.
