What about Alice Cooper or Vincent Price? 😸

Love this comment)))

Anynom that is because I was not there 😉

These aren't Muppets. Just because they were created for a Jim Henson film, doesn't mean that their Muppets! I mean, do you think _this_ is a Muppet? www.deviantart.com/legrande62/art/HANS-MY-HEDGEHOG-COSTUME-MAKEUP-THE-STORYTELLER-590530278 Hmmm?

Yes yes yes Pal I like that I do

Eventually my dreams will take me there.

Me to my 15 year old brother: alright I’m gonna offer you to the goblin king so we can meet Bowie My brother, a hardcore Bowie fan- say no more say no more

Im crying

I love to go their

Cat Santos yes.. yes he really did 😂

Yes 😅

Yeah

Yes!! He was! With his powerful singing! :)

HE REALLY DID THO-

Is THAT what that goblin said?? I've seen this dozens of times, and never could figure that out! LMAO

LMAOOOO

This is the best comment

🎶You remind me of the babe🎶

That part

With the manga in mind, very possible!

@@kellihurst4527 there was a manga of this?!

Wait is this a theory or true?

@@COPY_CAT_98 It's a theory, but the fact that you're asking means it's a damn good one.

I've always thought that was the story and suspect I must have seen something similar said in an interview. And also that Jared doesn't actually want to do that to the child. That he is forced to play his part but not really trying to win.

Iirc it became a cult hit pretty much immediately after being released on VHS though, so at least the people who made it got to see their work appreciated eventually

It's ok, it will live forever

I think it was the lack of a cohesive plot. I mean the concept is fantastic, but it needed something more. For instance some kind of plot device to better connect play that the main character was rehearsing for with her final showdown with the goblin King. Also why is the goblin King so human looking, and lastly A better explanation as to how a story she was telling to her little Brother just off the top of her head winds up becoming true. And I’m all for magical surrealism but it needs to be properly executed so that you’re not obsessing about the details when you’re watching the story unfold.

Best theme in the movie. Life isn't fair. And that is true.

@@meiamymei Jim Henson knew all along that Labyrinth would work.

At points its a doll

@@hufffamily6407 lol

@@eduvigislopez.f6349 he also did the baby sounds that's how good he was

lol truee when tossing the baby in the air @@hufffamily6407

I bet that Jared wanted Sarah to stay with him to have a conversation with someone with a IQ above two digits.

@@varric probably more than 1 digit if I were to be honest the goblins aren't very bright

Exactly and this is why he's the best goblin king

Bc we all serve the goblin king

It's because he hypnotized you . . . with his ummm Major Tom.

I don't know if he said this but omg if he didn't than this is defo something he would say and I can imagine it in his voice

Totally lol

It's in the top five.

Turn them all to Goblins!

*you'll be mine

@@SocialMediaInBio lol I know. I was saying they will belong to our Fandom. =)

Yassssss

(gargles beer that drips from the barrel)

Funner fact: The actor who was Toby is a puppeteer and creator of goblins and trolls.

Actually, that was in the recording for the album, not the movie.

@@ginnyjacobs99 The SONG in the Labyrinth film. As I originally said, David Bowie, voiced Toby, in the SONG.

@@danielwalker26 Even funnier fact, he is the son of the main puppetieers of this film, and originally this "role" wasnt his but the child who was supposed to play the baby was affraide of the puppets and they couldnt film with him, so he got the role.

@@facsatella No no. Toby Froud is the son of Brian Froud, the designer, and Wendy Froud, one of the puppet builders. None of them did any puppeteering in this movie whatsoever.

That's so awesome

😂😂

You have a good sister. :)

Lol awesome lol 😂

I was literally just thinking about this because I recorded this on VHS back in the 80's and showed it to my daughter who was born in 85'. She would sit and watch this movie all day long sometimes, if you let her. I used to say this dialogue with her when she was young and now she's pushing 40. She recently came out to visit me and over a cup of coffee we chatted a bit and I said "you remind me of the Babe" and she immediately remembered every single word.

17, just watched and you’re not the only one 😂 Goblin king is 😍🥵🥵

Then I see the movie I was instantly in with david because of his voice

Dude, I'm 22, married, and pregnant. I'm still in love with him!

I still am LOL

Me and my best mate used to watch this everyday after school. We were about 7 and completely in love 😂

Same here David bowie was my first celebrity crush in my high school days, and I was crushed when he passed

no

Not weird at all

David Bowie, God rest your soul. He was my dream king! He'll forever be the one and only Goblin King. No one will ever replace him, NO ONE!

Nope david bowie as jareth (the goblin king) was the shit hey i still crush over his performance.....david bowie xx

Oh. My. Fucking. God. Hahahahhaha I mean I stared too when I was a kid but I knew what it was ;)

gurrell!!! Lol

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Bruh sameee

Yeah me too lol David was packing 😄

Yeah😂😪

Every time: No, David Bowie didn't die, he just went home.

Also RIP Jim Henson

The Starman .

@@SrChr778 ur gay

I always thought it was "slap that baby make him bleed" ;-;

isn't it "slap that baby make him BREATHE"? www.quora.com/Why-does-a-doctor-slap-a-newborn-baby

That is hilarious. Now i will hear pee lol

😁

I spent 36 years believing it was make him Pee

me too. the music would have been different as well as the personality of the goblin king

Wow, I didn't know Michael was asked to be in this film. I am so glad he turned it down. This was not the role for him...he was superb as The Scarecrow in "The Wiz". But the Goblin King IS Bowie's. :)

Yeah, I can't imagine a moonwalking, crotch grabbing Goblin King. Though I do love MJ.

Shame really, I hear Michael Jackson loved playing with kids

@@cazza649 LMAOAOAO

He grew up to be a puppeteer himself actually!

He’s really just vibing there, but if I had David Bowie singing to me I probably would too.

@@hannnahsully *PROBABLY??* Buddy. Friend. Mate. Comrade. C'mon. You're not serious are you.

@@trashtoon actually she really is lol-

@@theseashellqueenfandomgal9333 *SO YOU HAVE CHOSEN DEATH...* lol. It's so nice to see people talk about this movie to this day. It's just makes me really happy :)) Also how do y'all feel about sequel slowly coming up?

These aren't even Muppets.

@@yosefdemby8792 if it's a puppet made by Jim Henson, it's a Muppet. sorry, but thems the rules

@@jaxkitten2381 Uh.... no. Take a look at this Jim Henson interview from 1982. users.bestweb.net/~foosie/henson.htm As he clearly states, "I have a feeling that the characters are just not Muppets at all. We hesitate to call them puppets even." "instead of puppetry we're trying to go toward a sense of realism - toward a reality of creatures that are actually alive and we're mixing up puppetry and all kinds of other techniques. It's into the same bag as E.T. and Yoda, wherein you're trying to create something that people will actually believe, but it's not so much a symbol of the thing but you're trying to do the thing itself." Jim Henson often had to struggle telling people that he was more than just The Muppet Man.

Don't forget Star Wars! Lucas and Henson were close associates, and he even let Lucas have first dibs on most of his work.

Are you saying I'm supposed to be taking this movie seriously?

The best part is : the real Toby is the puppet designer on dark crystal. The puppets share a striking resemblance to these ones... You could say he really did become the goblin king

And he made a magic clone of sarah.

Where can I find this manga sir?

@@timbutler5033 That the bad news was over ten years ago when i saw it. Was a short series, but like i said ten years ago. but imagine if you write the title of the movie and manga version may appear.

That sucks.

I like this comment quite a bit.

awwww yes this makes me feel so much better about his passing (even tho its was 5 yrs ago)

I once wished the goblins would come and take my mother away just so I could meet David Bowie

Working on the dark crystal netflix show

@@joserobertosolismerlin5527 sadly Netflix saids that it’s Cancelled or Discontinued. But they say that they might make some more backstories soon.

Same 💖

Same❤😍

Yeah 🤩

Then we look at Tim Curry from Rocky Horror Picture show. Both great men

Heck yeah😍

Now I’m imagining Thranduil singing and dancing around the battleground...and I approve. Seriously, though, I could see him as Thranduil.

If I remember well, he was offered to play Elrond in LOTR but he had other commitments so Hugo Weaving was cast instead. I love Elrond but Bowie had the perfect face to be an elf.

Yes . Good idea .

He wouldn't look good as that to me.

@@Lauren.E.O I see that its a fantasy movie and he plays an intimidating blonde man byt

Did yous complete the project?

Cool

Same here, but thought that it sounded familiar though

Me rn lmao

Me too

The creator took this video down for like a few weeks so all the comments including mine were deleted and mine had like 978 likes smh

Lol me to

I loved this song since I was kid!

I always heard slap the baby make it scream

Thank you! Never knew that little dude said 😂

And he grew up to follow in his dad’s footsteps and work as a puppeteer on the Dark Crystal Netflix series

He may not have been afraid of the goblins, But Toby Froud admitted that he was and still is afraid of Jareth.

Not only did his dad draw the goblin designs, but his mother helped bring them to life! He must have seen so much of their works at home that they were like toys to him.

@@FBB87 that's so wholesome, i saw this scene and I was reminded of the Dark Crystals

Little did we know....Bowie would be the inspiration for Michael Jackson and Blanket.

Good thing Toby survived thx to a goblin

Towards end of movie david wearing all white....in my opinion :)

Check out 2.50 minutes. Theres your comment or question .... coke ? .... and i love bowie but ...

He looked that good in leggings since the early 70's. I obviously only know this because someone once told me.

i'm guessing you mean while filming, and not just him lip syncing?

@@theminepup No you as.... He means in a concert.

I've been to a few Bowie events.. Never heard it performed outside of the movie.

On set

what concert???

Sister that happens to all of us

One of my most favorite shows of all time

Oh you too 🥰💜😍😅

glad i aint the only one ahhahaha

Yep same

They were both rolling superior machine thru out the 80s need to say more i love to return in spirit and never leave too many words to describe the list is endless pinnacle World with these guys were firing on all cylinders class scale can't be matched or touched forever surely 80s deserve to live on forever it rightly so memories magical fairytale dreams like this Movie cause we had plenty of top notch entertainment we can going back we never thought it at the time now after hard to believe coming into it's 40years no way flawless but like myself getting old suxs feeling pressure all the time just to live with not much left to go on just the legends of this 80s cause time double now it's under half flying to fast

No secrets THERE 😁

He was a mastermind wasn't he?

And forever ❤️

Saltine Let’s Dance. Favorite song

Leo Ciresi All of his are my favorites, but I’ve always loved space oddity

Which one? David Bowie or Jim Henson? Or both?

@@yosefdemby8792 I was talking about Bowie but rest in peace to Henson too

🤯

Jim Bowie……

lol, imagining him doing that is killing me

I thought you were joking, and then I saw this kzfaq.info/get/bejne/gc1zo7qL0peyg58.html

most of david's baby sfx are on the ost of the album, toby is present in most of this cut

No, only in the music album.

I am🤣🤣

same here :(

I agree he is perfection

Ir is indeed.

My sentiments exactly

😂😂❤️

😂😂😂😂

Then you're a dumb fuck so was the original comment only less so.

DRUNKARD! Lol. Is drunkard a word?

Your parents are so cool to have done that!!

Cool

It definetly was one of my favourites.

Gonna do the exact same thing with my kids, while cosplaying this handsome man

He was attractive full stop X

The dress is so beautiful!

He was also smart, an avid reader who went thru a book a day (look up his fav 100 books) and cared about equality and representation, in music anyway (look up his MTV interview).

It really is cool I like the aesthetic looks to it that and neverending story lol
