Willow – ep 60 – 1988
from Old Millennials Remember Movies Hosted by Angela Yoshiko
"Willow" definitely contributed to Angela's love of magic and the supernatural. She remembers many, many great moments from watching "Willow" as a kid. Meanwhile, Tyler kinda remembers a sledding scene. Maybe? This Willow podcast touches on ALL the memorable things from the somewhat-underappreciated Ron Howard fantasy adventure, including baby vomit, Brownies (not the delicious kind) and dirty Val Kilmer teeth! George Lucas concocted the story of "Willow," and he surely hoped the movie would explode in popularity like his "Star Wars" trilogy. That didn't exactly happen, which isn't really the movie's fault, or even George's fault. Well, except that he included those Jar Jar-esque Brownies. The Willow podcast includes Tyler and Angela discussing the incomparable charisma of Val Kilmer (playing a guy named Madmartigan - awesome name), the steady presence of Warwick Davis, pig transformations, syrup wigs, the possible origins of the xenomorph, and much more. Also, is the baby in "Willow" the most charismatic performer in history? Yes, the answer is yes. Plus, Tyler reads fan emails, and the very essence of being a millennial culminates into one of Tyler's life mantras - "It's not that I wouldn't. It's just that I didn't."
