It was one of the ones that I never got around to watching growing up in the 80s/90s, and I still have quite a few to go through (especially 80s rated R movies I wasn't allowed to watch but thankfully Tubi exists).
The movie was fine, but unfortunately I couldn't help but think about how Disney totally butchered the IP. I cancelled D-Plus in 21 but I heard about the Willow tv show and while watching the movie I couldn't help but say "you really couldn't come up with some sort of family friendly followup without injecting gay crap or current year nonsense into it". They constantly talk about diversity but it seems like the writer rooms are people with the exact same worldview off of a factory conveyer belt. Best example is an article I read when Star Trek Discovery had first started about how the writing room had to do a Star Trek boot camp because they didn't have any knowledge of the IP.
Warwick Davis was super young, i think around 18 filming this. But he was already in a few movies by then. I have the strangest memory of getting a willow coloring book at a Wendy's when they still had the taco buffet, and coloring the brownies.
I played the Willow NES game. It was actually pretty good. It had a mechanic where you had to equip special swords to defeat the ghost enemies in the game. Took me a long time to figure that out but once I did the game was great!
He was one of the Ewoks too. Wendy’s back then was awesome along with dine in Pizza Hut. I also loved the story of the founder of Wendy’s
Pizza Hut, that brings back memories. With the sit down Tetris table, red cups, and personal pan pizzas with books read sheets
The Tetris Table!
Wendy's always had those tables with old newsprint/articles designs under acrylic. Pizza Hut dine in was peak times. Ironically the last good one I went to was in Redwood Shores, Cali, in like 2006. Still had the full salad bar, huge variety, etc. Table top arcade cabinents.
I wonder why Pizza Hut stopped dine in. They could be like Cicis
It's been 15-20 years since I've eaten at Pizza Hut. Did they all stop dine in? There are still two near me that are full buildings with dining rooms that are open. Are they just not using them anymore?
Pizza hut has a set of locations now called "pizza hut classic" that is like a time capsule of the way they used to be
