Before the total trousers of SOLO, little Ronny Howard and big George Lucas teamed up for 1988's fantasty adventure WILLOW. As well as acting as an introductory service for Val Kilmer and Joanne Whalley, it seems to have influenced everyone from Peter Jackson to Tone Loc. And hats off to Lucas: he's given us two characters that are even more annoying than the lovechild of Jar Jar Binks and an Ewok. Our music, as ever, is kindly provided by The Sonic Jewels.
