Willow

I remember the previews for this movie came out like 6 months in advance… which was a big deal back then. It had me wondering. Willow must be an amazing movie to deserve such promotion! Alas, it was only average. There wasn’t any groundbreaking anything in this movie. It was just your run-of-the-mill fantasy-adventure movie. In retrospect, this was done before hollywood “figured out” how to do fantasy-adventure movies.

 

Top Secret!

There will never be another. I must have watched this move 50 times when it came out, and it was funnier every time. This movie has so many absolutely classic scenes that I can’t even list them all. The jokes aren’t “forced” either, they just flow into the plot seamlessly. I love the way this movie confuses time periods and countries and politics into some mushed-up alternate reality.
