Labyrinth
Directed by Jim Henson
Frustrated with babysitting on yet another weekend night, Sarah, a teenager with an active imagination, summons the Goblins to take her baby stepbrother away. When little Toby actually disappears, Sarah must follow him into a fantastical world to rescue him from the Goblin King. Guarding his castle is the labyrinth itself, a twisted maze of deception, populated with outrageous characters and unknown dangers. From TMDB

The baby, Toby Froud, later ended up being a puppeteer who worked on Dark Crystal: Age of Resistance.
neutral · AI labelView post →I strongly dislike seeing reels by Gen Zers that are like “nobody else has seen this weird movie” and its Labyrinth, the movie that everyone my age has seen 800 times
negative · AI labelView post →My man looks like Temu Mel Gibson. Like they microwaved a Stretch Armstrong doll. Like Peter Parker was bit by a radioactive hobo. Like a 7/11 hot dog got its wish to become a real boy. Like a Pixar film about a catcher's mitt. Like Hoggle from Labyrinth had a court date.
neutral · AI labelView post →We're watching Labyrinth which is in reality a Christmas Movie because David Bowie delivers his package
positive · AI labelView post →Fight Club is a movie about secretly being gay and The Matrix is a movie about secretly being trans. Labyrinth is a movie about menstruation.
neutral · AI labelView post →"Labyrinth" starring #DavidBowie and #JenniferConnelly hit cinema screens on this day 40 years ago. It was directed by #JimHenson from a screenplay by #TerryJones based on a story conceived by Henson and Dennis Lee, with #GeorgeLucas serving as Executive Producer.
neutral · AI labelView post →It’s THEATRICAL THURSDAYS!! Every Thursday a new film for you to enjoy, ponder and (if you like) discuss. PAN’S LABYRINTH is @realgdt.bsky.social masterpiece. A hauntingly beautiful fairytale of love, justice, monsters and destroying fascism.
neutral · AI labelView post →Is it just me or is David Bowie weirdly *extremely* sexual in the movie LABYRINTH?
neutral · AI labelView post →Sarah's bedroom in the movie Labyrinth is one of the best examples of set design as environmental storytelling and foreshadowing/backstory in the history of cinema. Everyone knows it is filled with things that you see later in the film, but there's even more that you don't notice at a glance.
positive · AI labelView post →kind of hard for me to think of a movie i'd want to see less than a Robert Eggers directed sequel to LABYRINTH
negative · AI labelView post →One of my favourite visual Easter eggs is in Jim Henson's Labyrinth. It's never mentioned, but you can see two milk bottles on the doorstep of the Goblin King's castle.

Made me feel like a kid again watching the likes of Labyrinth of Willow for the first time! TOM WAITS PLAYED THE COYOTE GENERAL!?
neutral · AI labelView post →I try not to make big declarations about things when I’m full of recency bias, but I genuinely think Wildwood is the best thing Laika’s ever made. It solidly exists in that space between Labyrinth, Narnia, Over the Garden Wall, and Willow, and it’s been a hot minute since we’ve had a movie like that
neutral · AI labelView post →If you have any interest, go see this movie in theaters, you will be so glad you did! I hope it remains a beloved movie through the ages. The next "Labyrinth" for a new generation.

neutral · AI labelView post →Labyrinth is great because the whole movie is about solving problems with creativity and trickery, and at the 3/4 mark, the goblins go "wait, we have guns!"
positive · AI labelView post →Labyrinth isn’t even a complicated movie it’s just about a girl growing past infantile fantasies and preoccupations of which Jareth is one! How do people get to places like this
positive · AI labelView post →Guillermo del Toro's (@realgdt.bsky.social) PAN'S LABYRINTH is back in theaters October 9, for the first time ever in 4K & 3D. "Absolutely no goddamn AI" was used in giving new life to the classic film for its 20th anniversary. Tickets are on sale NOW.

neutral · AI labelView post →It was a honour to help Brian & Wendy Froud (artists, folklorists, and the puppet film designers behind The Dark Crystal and Labyrinth) to turn their vision for this book into reality. Happy Book Publication Day to both of them, and to all the brilliant women writers who contributed to the volume.
neutral · AI labelView post →Some thoughts on seeing Pan's Labyrinth for the first time in years, and how in a time of actual fascism, the film is so much more a story about death, and the radical idea that you can't sacrifice vulnerable people to make a better world. letterboxd.com/rubystevensj...
