Arnold and I recently had a self-imposed 80's fantasy movie-fest which included Legend, Krull, Labyrinth, Willow, and (my favorite) The Princess Bride. Of course they're not as dynamic and visually rich as their millenium counterparts but these movies were part of our childhood as much as Sesame Street (see Ms. Mona's post) and The Electric Co. were, so watching them again (yes, even at 30) still strikes that now-choosy emotional chord.

In our line-up wishlist: The Neverending Story and Ladyhawke. Anyone know where we could get them locally?

Note: Watching them again also sent us rummaging for our 90s fantasy card games.

Still on a sentimental note, ever wonder what happened to the Sound of Music kids? Thanks to the internet, I found these reunion photos plus links to the personal websites of "Liesl", "Brigitta" and "Louisa".

Wow. Thank you. Girl power, don't you stop.

By the way, posts have been few and far between lately because some fine folks are keeping me busy, heh. Please visit these nice sites in the meantime.
