Forums - General - The Last Unicorn- That's All I've Got to Say

twesterm on 24 February 2011

So I'm a fan of The Last Unicorn.  I remember seeing it as a kid, I've read the book, I bought the awful US DVD version, and I now I have the great BluRay version.  I've even studied it a bit in one of my Medeival Studies classes!  I kind of like this movie.

Anyways, I was bored and reading some of the Amazon reviews and some other places and it seems like a popular opinion that the song That's All I've Got to say is one of the low points of the movie!

I absolutely agree that Mia Farrow and Jeff Bridge have no business singing but it's still important and moving.  The fact that they're so bad actually makes the song seem that much more genuine and real.  My fondest memory of this movie has always been that song and that song (along with FFVI) is one of the things that inspired me to write.

Anyone else a fan of this movie?  Anyone else pick up the BluRay?  Anyone else agree?

I absolutely adored this movie as a child. I haven't seen it in over 20 years.

You should definately check out the BluRay version.  It's actually surprisingly good quality for a nearly 30 year old movie and there are scenes in there I don't remember from the DVD version.

Hmph. I'll check it out. I have to say that I've been nervous to watch it again for fear of crushing my fond childhood memories of the film.

Just a friendly warning: that's exactly what happened to me.

I liked this movie a lot when it first came out.

I haven't seen it since it's first run on cable TV so I don't remember it that well.

There was talks of a live action version years ago but I don't think it ever got past the planning stage.
