(1) "charm!slag":
Bakshi will probably never do the rest of LORD OF THE RINGS. The first film
wasn't that successful, and Rankin/Bass did a version of THE RETURN OF THE KING
for tv a number of years ago.
(2) Jeff:
If Samantha in SIXTEEN CANDLES is the lead female character (I haven't seen
the flick yet), then she's played by Molly Ringwald, and I agree that she's very
talented. She virtually single-handed made SPACEHUNTER bearable to watch (I love
cute, spunky teenage girls <no crude comments please, that was not a straight
line> as characters. She also did a commendable job in Mazursky's TEMPEST.
(3) Rick:
I agree that the Tangerine Dream soundtrack was too light for FIRESTARTER,
but I rather liked it in THE KEEP --- the mood of the music fit the mood of the
film. I think that Jerry Goldsmith or Miklos Rosza would have been just right
for FIRESTARTER.
