POPULARITY
You remind me of the babe! This week on 3 Guys and a Flick, we enter Jim Henson's strange, musical, puppet-filled fantasy world as we review the 1986 cult classic Labyrinth. This episode takes us through Sarah's journey to rescue baby Toby from David Bowie's mesmerizing Goblin King, Jareth. Along the way, we talk Bowie's unforgettable presence, Jennifer Connelly's early performance, Henson's ambitious puppetry, the movie's darker coming-of-age themes, the soundtrack, the creepy factor, the Bog of Eternal Stench, and whether nostalgia does a lot of heavy lifting for this beloved fantasy film. Is Labyrinth a magical cult classic, an awkward 80s fever dream, or a technically impressive movie trapped somewhere between kids' film and adult fantasy? Grab your crystal balls, watch out for helping hands, and join us as we review the good, the bad, and the absurd.

They compared the film favorably to previous episodes' selections like "Rawhead Rex" and "Transmutations," concluding that "Big Trouble in Little China" was more entertaining and well-executed.

Step inside the Goblin King's maze with this special live episode of Cinebuds! Recorded at the historic Oriental Theatre during the 2026 Milwaukee Film Festival, this episode celebrates the 40th anniversary (and 4K restoration) of the fantasy classic, Labyrinth. For this very special occasion, Dori and Kpolly enlisted some help from Steve Horton, Eisner-winning author of the graphic novel Bowie: Stardust, Ray Guns, and Moonage Daydreams. He shares a few fascinating insider stories about Labyrinth from his research, including how Bowie would use a puppet off-camera to charm baby Toby into staying calm during filming. The trio also dive into: Why Bowie was the perfect Jareth (and which other '80s icons almost got the part). A tribute to Jim Henson's timeless practical effects and the lovable "gentle giant," Ludo. Hilarious behind-the-scenes secrets, from the infamous "codpiece" to Jennifer Connelly's real reaction to the Bog of Eternal Stench. And it wouldn't be a live event without getting the audience involved, including a few brave souls who offer their questions and "hot takes."#####Cinebuds is sponsored by Joe Wilde Garage Door Company.
In the penultimate episode of the season, we're diving headfirst into the dark fantasy movie that defined 80s childhoods (for some of us, Dan included, maybe?) but was a complete box-office flop: Labyrinth (1986). Settle in for spoilers, swearing, and probably a tangent or two about where babies go when Jareth steals them. Was it just a logistical nightmare with all those puppets, animals, and babies? Yes. Does Jareth's portrayal raise some eyebrows today? Absolutely, he's the villain, you muppet! But despite its initial failure as a movie that flopped at the box-office, Labyrinth's unique blend of whimsy, darkness, and catchy songs (dance, magic, dance!) has cemented its status as a cult classic. We talk about the worm, the door knockers, the Bog of Eternal Stench, and why Jim Henson took the flop so hard. What to expect from this episode: Speculation on the film's deeper themes and interpretations, from it being a coming-of-age story about Sarah letting go of childhood things, an anti-hoarding message via the Garbage Lady, a metaphor for life's journey and friendship, or even the darker fan theory that the entire event is a result of Sarah's mental illness A deep dive into the incredible puppet work and practical effects, highlighting characters like Hoggle and the technical challenges of the "Swiss cheese" set Discussion about the confirmed sequel in development, touching on previous directors attached (Scott Derrickson, Fede Alvarez) and the current attachment of Robert Eggers (EGGERS!)

In this episode of Untidy, ‘podcast partners' Matty and Hannah begin to merge completely by turning up in matching jumpers. Matty is the ever-vigilant neighbour sniffing out the cause of suspicious smoke activity in the far-off distance, while Hannah remains completely oblivious to an actual emergency right outside her front door. After that initial housekeeping and checking in on the set homework of the 90s poo, they get to discussing Hannah's activities as the dark angel of the dating world, sharing the latest horrifying encounters, honest observations of fellow daters, and delivering due consequences to dating swamp monsters haunting the shallows of the ‘Bog of Eternal Stench'. Will Hannah find her sunny pontoon? Or, will this foray just continue to deliver content for the pod? With a chasm of disconnect between many women wishing to ‘engage the mind before engaging the heart', versus many men moving directly to, ‘send me a pic', the girls ponder if we are headed for a greater loneliness epidemic with the dehumanising effects of dating app culture.

In this episode of Untidy, Matty peels off her snot-encrusted bathrobe after a week of fever and slips into her hooded ‘pump cover' instead. She and Hannah embrace the age and stage of life where conversations start with a health round-up and Hannah embarks on a body-wide WOF (if she can remember what she's doing). The girls answer hard-hitting listener questions and expose the culprit in lasagne crimes, as well as revealing Hannah's dating pool is in fact, The Bog of Eternal Stench where she shares her struggles to find her sunny pontoon.

Will Collins and Kevin Lehane from The Best Bits Podcast return to Flixwatcher to review Will's choice Labyrinth. Labyrinth is a 1986 musical fantasy directed by Jim (The Muppets) Henson and written by Terry (Monty Python) Jones. It stars David Bowie (who also wrote the songs) as Jareth the Goblin King and Jennifer Connelly, in her breakout role, as Sarah. After wishing that the goblins come and take away her baby brother Toby, Sarah has to tackle the labyrinth in 13 hours to rescue him or he will turn into a goblin. Along the way she encounters its unusual inhabitants - friends Hoggle, Ludo, Sir Didymus and foes The Firey's and the Bog of Eternal Stench. Hard to believe but Labyrinth was a box office flop and opened to mixed reviews, over the years, due it part to Bowie's legacy, it has firmly become a cult classic and frequently sells out cinema screenings. Labyrinth scores very highly across all Flixwatcher categories, only dropping a few points on small screen to score a very respectable 4.65 overall. Enjoyed this episode? You can listen to Will and Kevin guest on Flixwatcher previously reviewing No Country for Old Men and The Karate Kid.

In our latest episode, Ellie joins us again as we get lost in the twists and turns of a childhood favorite while discussing Jim Henson's fantasy fable Labyrinth. We'll compare the movie to Henson's previous fantasy epic The Dark Crystal, examine the film as a metaphor for the transition to womanhood, and ponder what a Bog of Eternal Stench would smell like. Warning: Contains explicit language, spoilers, and a discussion of the cinematic impact of David Bowie's package. Our theme song is "Nostalgia TV" by Edward Jonathan Blakeley through Lynne Publishing.
For our 10th episode we journey back to another of our earliest memories, Labyrinth. We get into David Bowie's loose cock (we wish), the magic of puppets, the trauma of the Fireys, falling in love with Ludo, and the bubbling sphincters of the Bog of Eternal Stench. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/doomgeneration/message

This week on Total Movie Recall, Steve and Ryan put on their codpieces and fret over the innocence of teenage girls around David Bowie. Don't get us wrong, we love this movie, but why does this charming children's tale have a character named after the part of the anatomy responsible for transporting sperm? And why do so many sequences resemble sperm? And if all of these things are symbols for sperm, what does the Bog of Eternal Stench represent? We shudder to think… Labyrinth (1986) d. Jim Henson w.

A disturbed teenage girl. A baby-snatching goblin king with a distractingly prominent codpiece. A supporting cast of creature features ranging from bizarre to frankly terrifying. Every scene of Jim Henson's Labyrinth is burned into the memories of a generation of movie viewers. With the late-great David Bowie taking the iconic role of Jareth, the aforementioned well endowed Goblin King, any proposed sequel to this 80s classic would have to wrestle with the unthinkable prospect of recasting. Who could possibly step into his shoes? This week on Beyond The Box Set, we've challenged ourselves to come up with some ideas... Labyrinth is a rare film that we both have equally strong memories of, proving that despite initially poor box office returns, the movie enjoys a truly timeless appeal. Join us on this week's episode as we discuss bad acting vs dream acting, the bizarre genius of the Bog of Eternal Stench and why Sir Didymus is the absolute worst... ----- Beyond The Box Set is the hit British podcast in which two hapless but creative film nerds pitch sequel, prequel and spin-off ideas for classic standalone movies. We've been featured as a must-listen Podcast by Podbean, The Guardian and iTunes, and our show is available on virtually all major platforms.

Unabashedly Obsessed Episode 109: You Remind Me of the Babe (“Labyrinth”) Hey, everyone!

That’s right, we’re talking about “Labyrinth”, the movie that made Erin and so many other children of the … Continue reading Episode 109: You Remind Me of the Babe (“Labyrinth”)
I had a fun conversation with Dana that went all over the place. We talked MCU rankings, ghost stories, movies, comics, and a true story about the Bog of Eternal Stench.

Turn around, look at what you see! It's Baconsale doing the Magic Dance of a versus show. On this episode, we're taking opposing sides on our favorite childhood fantasy films, namely Labyrinth and The NeverEnding Story. Joel does his best to banish Atreyu and Falkor to the Nothing, even though he actually likes them, while Kent projects his own creepiness on Jareth the Goblin King and Sarah in order to drag their story through the Bog of Eternal Stench. Call our name and then press play to Chilly Down with the Baconsale gang!
Ever wonder what The Bog of Eternal Stench from the Labyrinth movie was based off of? New York City in the summer time. We can't prove that since Jim Henson is dead, but we're willing to bet, that's about right. In addition to being the smelliest place on earth, NYC is expensive, dangerous, and full of a-holes who just want to scam you out of your money. Wow, what a place. Greatest city on earth? As if! Whatever! Thank goodness we don't live there anymore. Well, one of the sweetest men on earth begs to differ! Adam Lustick is here to say that New York City ain't half bad! And he would know. He lived there too... and would move back if given the chance! So let's hear him out. Adam Lustick is a member of The Harvard Sailing Team and remains one of the best people alive today. You can spot him in Adam Ruins Everything on truTV and Casual on Hulu. If you’ve got any questions, comments, or concerns about the current, past, or future Make Me Like It podcasts, shoot Dan and Kelly an email at littlepuppyquestions@gmail.com!
