R.I.P. Terry Jones
Saddened to hear of the passing of Terry Jones. The LA Times obituary covers the usual bases, but also mentions he's credited with the script for Labyrinth.
I had no idea! Then again, some poking around the intertubes led me to this interview where Jones explains that the final movie had significant differences from what he wrote, and so he didn't feel much of a connection with it. Ah well.
The interview also mentions in passing that Jim Henson's other top choice for Jareth was Michael Jackson.
