Thanks .

Dunno, but it's a full blown Hollywood movie, hence videogame tie-in's. It's totally worth watching.


If you go back earlier there's
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Hobbit_(1977_film)
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Re...ng_(1980_film)

They're both shit IIRC, but why not watch them anyways?

I'm just going to say The Flight of Dragons because that's a movie I forgot existed and enjoyed when I found it. 5% chance it's what you're looking for though

yes it was directed by Ron Howard https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0096446/?ref_=sr_t_1 I'll be looking for it.
oh so there was 2 and the 1st was older than I thought. The Flight of Dragons isn't it but I might have seen it when I was a kid.

George Lucas worked hard to get Willow produced even before Star Wars

Which films are you after? Willow, or the 3 animated ones?

[Jackhammer]

I'm also trying to remember the name of another old cartoon movie that I had watched with my cousins many years ago. I can't remember much about it but it had some little fat guy going on an adventure and got himself a cigar or pipe that he made rings with and rode around on one I think there might have been a dragon in it too.
hard to remember much about it since I only seen it once.

Sounds like The Hobbit.

Spoiler warning:

Spoiler warning:

after looking through IMDB for a while today and yesterday it may have been or it's not listed on IMDB.

Selling my house in Key Largo to rent a house in Miami where I don't have to shoot crackhead thieves for stealing from me and trespassing turned out to be better move than I thought it would be, landlord likes my style and that I help him with repairs, plumbing and as electrician. I'm self sufficient and he wants me to stick around as a tenant so he lowered my rent 20% because his previous tenants were destructive and needed constant repair so he thanks me often for the difference.

At least you can shoot burglars in the US. Here in the UK you can get jailed for defending your home from thieves.

Usual stuff that gets thrown in a drawer and forgotten about, with one exception, I received two Switch eShop cards worth £30

It's pretty much he same here, using "excessive" force to defend yourself means you'll get hit with manslaughter as a minimum.
Excessive translates as being anything greater that what is being used against you.
Like;
The attacker has a small knife and you use a gun to kill him.
The attacker is unarmed and you use any sort of weapon (even improvised like kitchen implements or tools like a screwdriver) to kill him.

You can get away with using a bat or something to defend yourself, but you really need to try to incapacitate and not kill your assailant.
This can be difficult if the attacker is high on methamphetamines... they usually just keep coming at you if they're still conscious.

I imagine it's gotten worse in the decades since .
