1980s: An Era of Fantasy
Dragonslayer (1981) With excellent special effects by a young ILM.
The Dark Crystal (1982) I forgot they were puppets.
Krull (1983) Where a giant spider scared me.
The Neverending Story (1984) I like Billy Crystal’s role more than the luck dragon. 
Legend (1985) Ridley Scott! Check out Tom Cruise’s pre-hollywood grin.
Labyrinth (1986) I first fell in love with David Bowie.
The Princess Bride (1987) As you wish…
Willow (1988) Warwick Davis without make-up and costumes.
While Peter Jackson brings life to Middle Earth and Pan’s Labyrinth shows a new vision of fantasy, we will never see movies like these again.
