Jareth

I'm back for a second episode after a brief hiatus.

You have to, all right, Jess, people were giving me shit for not yes-handing your Jareth.

Jareth? Chiefly you, but some others.

You're not going to give me, like, even a smidge of a David Bowie impression? Not even, like, a whiff? I've

kidnapped a baby, and I'm married to Iman.

my little brother i got a babysit i wish that the goblin king would come and kidnap me oh wait no the the baby take the

baby it's me jennifer i loved your work in the hulk thank you i don't get enough yeah no he was wonderful to work with that that's a flouncy blouse you're wearing but mine's even flouncier

Who are you, Jareth? I'm Jareth, the Goblin

decides that she doesn't want to take care of her brother anymore.

So she gives them, she just, she's like reeling to stories and she gives her brother to the Goblin King, who the Goblin King is strangely David Bowie with a, his outfit is horrible.

No one needs to see that part of him.

No, as a little girl, I'm like, why? but it was like, I can't.

Modern boy in Thedas, love triangles with a twist, isekai, no base, we die like men.

Will Celeste remain unaffected if provoked? Jareth has entered the building, might get serious soon, but can't stop, won't

stop.

To be honest, I was hoping this was going to be Jareth stealing a baby, because that's what he does best.

Yeah, he does, doesn't he? Like, he just shows up, kidnaps baby, makes you go through a maze to get your child back.

Yeah.

little brother is taken by a murder of crows and taken into this other world of Wildwood.

So we find, we get this like sort of movie we've seen a lot before where you see a, basically a child has a brother or a child goes into a world movies like labyrinth where like she goes into the world after her brother cause the goblin King stole her brother.

Or even like movies like Spirited Away, where she's like, it's a little girl and her parents get kind of sucked in and she goes into this world and now she has to survive in this world.

Pan's Labyrinth, even that, like where she has her little brother and like she has her family and she's like all these, another labyrinth.

No. Yeah.

um yeah i don't know who that is i don't know who that

is oh i don't know who that is so labyrinth is a jim henson movie one of the first jim henson movies and it stars jennifer connelly and uh basically and david bowie uh uh david oh yes i know him yeah i know david bowie is the goblin king and uh Yeah, so Jennifer Connelly goes into...

She's all about this labyrinth world.

To the extent that Terry Jones says he didn't feel that the film was very much his anymore.

So some of the notable changes were around Jareth, who David Bowie played.

After Bowie was cast, they rewrote the script to allow him to do singing and dancing numbers.

And also just rewrote the entire

The lead role was cast with, it was seen, a lot of people auditioned for it.

We had Helena Bonham Carter, we had Laura Dern, we had Sarah Jackson Parker, but we ended up with Jennifer Connelly in the role of Sarah.

And of course, Bowie was in the role of Jareth.

But he did try to pull out a couple of times.

Bowie.

Can I be the Goblin King? Let me do that

one.

Fat Bowie.

Yeah,

you're dead.

Goblin King was a good one.

I'm having a heart attack laughing at my own joke.
