Just joined and I absolutely loved this movie. There are quite a few 1980's Fantasy films that are a must-see. Labyrinth, The Dark Crystal, and Legend!

Just joined the Patreon and really enjoyed this. I was surprised to see though that this was one of your earlier movies and that you had not done any more of them. Then I checked the comments on this video and realized no one answered your question about if they made more Never Ending Stories.
The answer is yes, there is 3 in total and i'd love to see you react to the next two. I have watched the original a few times over the years since my childhood but I have not seen 2 or 3 since the 90's. I remember 2 being my favorite... I have 0 recollection of what #3 was about.

Orange Juice blended with a raw egg is actually quite delicious.

Bastian's father said his name near the start of the movie.
They didn't get to the Ivory Tower that fast. When they left and the Nothing was coming, it was night. When they arrived at the tower, it was either sunset, or sunrise. Hard to tell which, but by the look of the sky, it was either one. The editing cut was meant to indicate a long gap of time.
I'm so glad you loved this one. This was one of my favorite movies as a kid. Watching it as a child was incredible.
The special effects did look amazing, especially for the 80's There was no CGI at that time at all. It was all practical, and it's amazing that almost all of it holds up and looks so good today. The music was beautiful, too.
I laughed when you said Falcor scared you. Not because you were scared as a kid, but because Falcor was such a sweetheart. Falcor didn't scare me, but Gmork (the wolf) scared the everloving crap out of me as a kid.
Oh, and I almost forgot. The name Bastian gave the Childlike Empress is Moonchild. It probably sounds like an odd name for his mother, but I assume she was born in the sixties, and back then, names like that were common for girls. Back then, you regularly saw names like Saffron, Sapphire, Rainbow, Moonbeam, Windy, ect. Yes, really.
Fabulous reaction, JV. Can't wait for your next one.

With the exception of A Knight's Tale, all these movies will likely get lots of watches. They were hugely popular when they came out, and most have lots of votes on reactor's channels. A Knight's Tale was an enormous hit when it came out, but for some reason, it's not one that gets talked about a lot. However, when reactors do it, people usually end up enjoying it, and all the reactors I've seen have liked it. I think you'd love it.
About the Green Mile. It is very popular with reactors and viewers, and I think you will love it, but two words of warning. It is an extremely hard watch. I don't normally like telling reactors anything about a movie going in, but The Green Mile is so emotional that reactors usually appreciate being warned that it's a hard one. Warning two, well, it's hard to say without giving things away, but let's just say, I hope you don't find it offensive. IF you do, then my profoundest apologies, and I understand. BUT, if you don't, then I think you will love it.
Thanks again for the fantastic reaction.
