My DD loves this film and... So do I Grin.

AIBU to pick her up and twirl her about during the film while singing "dance magic dance" while she breaks her heart laughing :)

All together now.. You remind me of the babe, what' babe? The babe with the power. Grin

What power?

I love, love, love this film too. I have the soundtrack on my iPod and dance along with my babies :)

YANBU. I love Bowie and his sock in Labyrinth. Plus it's just a bloody brilliant film.

DizzyPurple · 25/08/2013 21:32

The power of the babe!
Excellent film. Do you just like him for those tight tights though??

VivaLeBeaver · 25/08/2013 21:32

I love it too.

Someone stopped me the other week and said my dog looks like Sir Didymus. They're right, he does!

CustardOmlet · 25/08/2013 21:33

BEST FILM EVER

I love dressing my son in his red stripy pjs, looks so cute!

MacaYoniandCheese · 25/08/2013 21:34

YANBU.

KittyVonCatsworth · 25/08/2013 21:34

Oh those tights. Beat still my pulsating pussay! I love this film, as does my daughter, which is how the whole Bowie crush started with her. And even now she loves the tights. Oh, she is 18 btw!

HearMyRoar · 25/08/2013 21:35

I have always thought the one major flaw to the film was Sarah's completely unbelievable decision to turn down david bowie the goblin king. I mean seriously!? What an idiot :o

Babybunny88 · 25/08/2013 21:35

Oh no it's not the tights at all (a bit) it's his hair. And his voice. Wink

My favourite film ever!

The ballroom scene I would kill to be Sarah Envy

Babybunny88 · 25/08/2013 21:37

Would give anything to be Sarah during the ball room scene. I wish it lasted a bit longer :)

YANBU!

I love him and this film is to blame for my obsession.

I recently watched The Man Who Fell to Earth, didn't really understand what was going on half the time but loved it purely because he was so bloody beautiful, if not a total junkie at that point.

Have also watched 2 documentaries about him this year, I'm a tad obsessed.

I'm 34 nearly 35 I waa born a musical decade too late!

TooTabooToBoo · 25/08/2013 21:42

Where's JarethTheGoblinKing these days?

Babybunny88 · 25/08/2013 21:47

Jareth the goblin king uses mn? Shock

MeAndMySpoon · 25/08/2013 21:49

I will admit to buying a rather posh red and white striped babygro for my first son, and using it again with DS2, because it was essentialy a Toby outfit. Grin

Bowie rocks, now and forever more. Jareth is totally my bitch. Grin

TooTabooToBoo · 25/08/2013 21:52

Oh yes, haven't seen her around much though BUT I'm not as active on the site as I used to be.

I wish I'd chosen a Labyrinthian NN when I NC'd Sad

brightnearly · 25/08/2013 21:52

YANBU at all!!!!

Northernexile · 25/08/2013 21:56

Totally reasonable!
