this is one of my favorite movies of all time. i still remember watching willow at the old metro center ua theater in colma with my family as a kid. (that scene where everyone gets turned into pigs is classic.)
glad to see that warwick davis was able to use this film as a springboard for bigger and better starring roles such as leprechaun. oh, and yodel to george lucas.
frank frazetta died yesterday, but he leaves behind a great legacy. his art greatly influenced my childhood, and it looks like my dream of one day having frazetta do some album art is now impossible.
heavy metal is quite possibly one of my favorite movies of all time. i saw the edited-for-tv version as a kid late night on tnt monstervision back in the 6th grade. (damn, monstervision deserves it’s own post.)
later in the 7th or 8th grade it was finally released on video, and i watched it over and over. i still own the vhs. baws.
