Conan I can accept. willow I haven’t seen for over 30 years, and I don’t think I’ve ever seen Dragonslayer…

I've actually never seen it though... Would I regret it? Trailer suggests yes xD

it's pretty lowbrow but a more accurate onscreen representation of a typical RPG than most APs, in my experience...

Dragonslayer is brilliant. Oft-overlooked classic with very good practical effects.

Amazing work on that dragon. Wasn't it one of the films that really got Go Motion nailed? The only downside to that film is watching it now and going "Thats the bloke out of Ally McBeal"

Theres a big chunk about making the puppet in one of my ILM books. I remember just staring at the photos and studying every single detail of the model.

This one, plus the second book. I still have loads of books and magazines on VFX from my time in uni.

It was also IIRC one of several Disney Films that scared kids on release and led to the creation of Touchstone Pictures. And yes, Dragonslayer is an awesome film.
