The 1980s saw a number of fantasy films released, and the genre culminated in 1988's Willow, starring Warwick Davis and Val Kilmer from the minds of George Lucas and Ron Howard.
It was a highly anticipated effects filled movie that represented the advent of some new filmmaking techniques.
Bruce and Larry have some differing opinions on this film. Does it hold up? How does it compare to modern fantasy films, and the other fantasy releases of its era? Where does it fit between Star Wars and the Lord of the Rings?
Bruce and Larry discuss story, effects and the broader 80s fantasy genre in Episode 81 of the Media Montage Podcast!
