We killed a homeless man on this bench. Me and Dru. Those were good times. You know, he begged for mercy, and you know, that only made her bite harder.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Fun Guardian thread on Epic 80s Cult Fantasy Movies.

One list:

15.- "Conan the Destroyer"
14.- "Clash of the Titans"
13.- "The Labyrinth"
12.- "Return to OZ"
11.- "Legend"
10.- "The Dark Crystal"
9.- "Krull"
8.- "Highlander"
7.- "Time Bandits"
6.- "Conan the Barbarian"
5.- "Erik the Viking"
4.- " The Neverending story"
3.- " The Adventures of Baron Munchausen"
2.- "Excalibur"
1.- "Willow"

Labyrinth behind Dark Crystal?! Will Jilli let that stand? Legend behind Willow? Where's Princess Bride? List Fail.

Labyrinth behind Dark Crystal?!

Labyrinth behind KRULL?! Willow at #1?! No, I do not agree with that list whatsoever.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

Right?

Willow should definitely not be #1.

You have to remember that being a 5-time Olympic medalist means Hilary Knight has been playing hockey at an elite level at least 16 years. It's impossible for her to be a teenage girl less than 16 years old, thus the President's complete lack of interest.

And while I'd say The Adventures of Baron Munchausen deserves a high place on the list quality-wise, I've never gotten the impression that it was a big cult touchstone like Time Bandits or Labyrinth.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Lee Pace is coming up in the world. Apparently he'll be playing Thranduil in The Hobbit.

Oh, I saw Dylan Dog, Dead of Night yesterday. Unremarkable supernatural action-adventure, but the comedic bits were entertaining thanks to Sam Huntington.

Good for Lee Pace.

Woe to the fucking wicked.

I will share this here, as everyone else will just look at me oddly. When I read that news, I thought, "Oh, I love his elbows, but they're not really Elf-King elbows." Because, on Pushing Daisies, I was deeply smitten with his Pie Maker choice of keeping his elbows tucked close to his body to prevent accidental touching. And, of course, I realize that, what with the "actor" thing, he's perfectly capable of changing his physicality to match the character. But, yeah, my automatic response to "Lee Pace" is "Oh, I love his elbows."

A thing which it is best not to say to one's boyfriend.
