Neverending story

look at what you seehehee ..

:) That song always makes happy, a time when things seems a lot simpler, easier and relaxed.
Also fun movies like neverending story, but also an original Total Recall, original Robocop, without all the silly reboot these days.

Then again if you were a child you also never had the adult responsibilities like bills etc, it's probably a mix of both i guess that make people hang for the time when they were a kid.

Then you must be <20-30.

Might depend where you´re living aswell. The author (Michael Ende) used to be like J.K.Rowling for the late 20th century in Euope. I highly recommend another book by him Momo. : )

If I recall correctly, the movie was about the biggest thing happening outside Hollywood at the time. It´s director went straight there afterwards to do a couple of films with the likes of Clint Eastwood, Harrison Ford and George Clooney,, one of the composers won an Oscar the same year for his work on another movie - Flashdance

To sum it up you could say the whole thing was like LOTR in the 1980s. With it´s visual style it might even have done it´s part to pave the way for Animé in western culture.
edit: apparently it even found it´s way into todays pop culture here

And a third, and am surprised not even a fourth these days, even Labyrinth is gonna get a sequel (without David Bowie obviously). Always hoped for another Gremlins movie.

I don't even have time to play all my games, let alone read, and i just always tell myself games are interactive books so atleast i am doing something "intellectual". :p

Yep showed as a suggestion in youtube when i searched the clip yesterday, sometimes you can actually learn some nice things from youtube in that section, for some reason though i always mix this song up with the band Erasure, maybe they had a similar (movie) hit or something, no idea.
