Quest For Movies With Legend


Rumor Mill: Tom Cruise in a Legend 2. John’s story when hearing this. 

‘Furiosa’ Synopsis Teases the Return of ‘Fury Road’ Villain Immortan Joe.

Frank Grillo against werewolves in the absolutely bananas Year 2.

Described as “The Purge with werewolves”, Year 2 is the wild and crazy story about the return of a supermoon which, on its last appearance just a year earlier, turned anybody touched by moonlight into a werewolf!


Tonight’s Movie?  Legend 1985

Darkness (Tim Curry) seeks to create eternal night by destroying the last of the unicorns. Jack (Tom Cruise) and his friends do everything possible to save the world and Princess Lili (Mia Sara) from the hands of Darkness. Enter a world of unicorns, magic swamps, dwarfs and rainbows.

Release date: April 18, 1986 (USA)

Director: Ridley Scott

Starring: Tom Cruise; Mia Sara; Tim Curry; David Bennent; Alice Playten; Billy Barty; Cork Hubbert

Music by: Jerry Goldsmith; (European version and director's cut); Tangerine Dream; (US version)


According to an IMDb blip, Tom Cruise reportedly wasn't happy with the American cut of this movie and wouldn't talk about it for years because of it. He very much encouraged fans to go with the Director's Cut. For years, it was falsely rumored that this film was the source of inspiration for Shigeru Miyamoto's 'The Legend of Zelda' games.


The movie notoriously had 4 cuts and 2 soundtracks. European and Directors Cut has Jerry Goldsmith score and the tv and theatrical cuts have boss tracks from Tangerine Dream.


Rumors are during production issues, someone suggested the movie get Disney method. 


Story evolved from Ridley telling the screenwriter a basic idea of a Grimms fairy tale inspired hero fighting some evil and also to reference the book Faeries. 


There is a flirtatious deleted scene between Darkness and Princess; the original script took it even farther with a sex scene because the movie was going to be R rated for grown ups. Eludes screen rant movie website. 


Our favorite bits from Legend 1985 include the seduction dancing dress scene and the creation of “Lady Darkness.”


We also watched Umbrella Academy Season 3 which just got released.  We appreciate it tying up loose ends and maybe leaving it open for another season.


We put a staff pick spotlight on a new dramedy called The Bear. The Bear is on Hulu and we think it is the most accurate portrayal of a working kitchen’s energy and attitudes.
