Willow

Made in 1988, Willow is about an evil queen who will stop at nothing to kill a baby who one day will grow to dethrone her. Willow (Warwick Davis) is a little guy with a lot of courage who is on a quest to take the baby to safety.

I saw this movie a long time ago. I think I was 17 years old when I saw it and it's still as good as I remember. The little brownies in the movie still make me laugh like they did back then.

Good flick, George Lucas when he was at the top of his game.

I will have to watch it again!! Many thanks!

Loved Willow. I've seen it maybe three times. First time, I found it just magical. I liked Val in it as well.

I loved the name "Willow" ever since and would consider using it as a pen name.

Thanks for bringing it up.

One of the first movies i went to watch in the cinema without my parents, i was about 13. Willow, Big and Scrooged were all great movies that year or there abouts.

You're welcome. Enjoy the movie.

You're welcome. I thought Val Kilmer was funny in it. Willow is a good name. It's also one of my favorite trees.

I liked Scrooged and Big, too. Now I have to look them up lol. Thanks.

Legend, with Tom Cruise and Tim Curry is equally good!

There is an old Irish saying, and I will spare you the Gaelic version, that goes like this:

" A willow doesn't bend with ease; the bigger the wind, the stronger the trees,"

Wow that takes me back, I was only 10 when I saw it the first time.

a reply to: Ultralight

Yes, it is. I like that one very much. I looked all over for it but can't find it.

Willow AND Legend are 2 of my favorites from the eighties.
Thanks for reminding me about it.

You found it! You rock.

What a wonderful movie. I saw it in my early 30's and it was one of my instant favorites. I still have the DVD.

a reply to: Skid Mark

one of the greatest movies ever made in my opinion...i just watched it like 2 weeks ago again....i loved it as a kid back when you could record a video through your vcr onto vhs tapes and it wasnt considered pirating lol.

Loved the movie Willow. My second daughter was named Ellora, inspired from that movie.

And Val Kilmer was yummy eye candy in that flick.
