Guess what's coming to the Kendall next week with a new 35mm print? One week only. The songs will leave my head in, oh, November at the earliest.

I caught the trailer for it on Saturday when I went to see PAPRIKA and was very very very very very pleasantly surprised. So surprised I think I said "holy shit!" out loud an' everything.

Looking forward to seeing it on the big screen is one of the few bright spots in an otherwise dark, vague-feelings-of-impending-abstract-doom day.

Holy crap on a mofo crap stick. Be it alone or in company, I will go! This is one of my favorite movies of all time. For a long time I have wanted to have a movie night where we watch Labyrinth, Dark Crystal and Legend. Anecdote: Beverly Crusher choreographed Layrinth.

And Danny John-Jules was one of the Bogglin dancers. :3

(And Dr. Crusher was one of the assistant choreographers. It was mostly choreographed by Charles Augins, who was ALSO on Red Dwarf. Why I know this stuff, I could not tell you.)

I thought Danny John-Jules was one of the Fireys in the Chilly Down sequence ("Hey! Her head don't come off! Where you going with a head like that?") You can also easily tell Kevin Clash was one of the voices too. But who were the Bogglins?

Apparently, he is a voice and a choreographer. I did not know that...

I mean Charles Augins...

...I thought that's what they were called. XD

SO NOW THAT MY NERD CARD HAS BEEN INVALIDATED, WHAT SHOULD I DO WITH ALL THIS RANDOM RED DWARF TRIVIA, SIR?

Your nerd card ain't invalidated, dear Hips. In fact, I bet you are one of maybe two or three people on my friends list who could comprehensively explain "D-D-DON'T SHOOT!"

Dude! I didn't know that! How excellent.
I am so there, additionally. I hadn't gotten a date for when it was being shown, but NOW, with that knowledge...

KNOWLEDGE IS POWER!

The Brattle had a Labyrinth/Dark Crystal double feature a while ago and it was awesome. And kind of geeky since a friend's husband was playing WoW during intermission.

Adding Legend to the mix would be insane.
