My kind of classics

Ξ May 27th, 2007 | → | ∇ Music And Television |

Whilst shopping for a new outfit for the eldest, the kilt I bought for her reminded me of the one Lydia (Winona Ryder- Im a big fan!)  wore in Tim Burtons’ Beetlejuice, one of my favourite films, I would have been about 9 when it came out. Anyway it started me thinking of some of the fantastic films I watched and that the girlies have missed out on, im going to try and get hold of some of them. 

Can’t have them growing up not having seen classics like Labyrinth, I’ve got an image of David Bowie in my head, chicken kicking! If that’s what those creatures were? And for so long anything even vaguely stinky got labelled the bog of eternal stench.

Speaking to hubby about his memories of cool films and he said ‘Never ending story’, think I must have missed out on that one, big flying dog? LOL

One of my best friends used to love the film Grease, it bored the life out of me, she used to put it on constantly, evil girl! That’s what friends are for.

The Wizard of Oz films on the other hand were soooooooo cool, I suppose I should really know who made them but I don’t, I wish I knew which film it was with all of the scary heads in the cabinets,  I loved that one, perhaps Return to Oz or something? I wear a pair of metallic red soft leather slip-ons, I adore them, how old am I?

What are your old favourites?

    I quite like dungeons and dragons too, but can you remember if they ever found there way home?

    How old indeed Kathryn?!

    I love Beetlejuice, Labyrinth and The Neverending Story. Also, The Dark Crystal (way before your time ;-) ), The Wizard of Oz, The Princess Bride and many others I can’t think of at the mo. Can I come to your house and watch with the kids?!

    I also love the classic black and white films I used to watch with my dad, old Ealing films and weepies. Nostalgia, *sigh*

    PS I think you’re right and it was Return to Oz, sounds familiar.
