I had heard that Time Bandits was HILARIOUS by people who quoted it periodically ("Mom! Dad! Don't touch that -- it's EVIL!"), so I was prepared to really like it. Possibly that's just the over-hype effect, but I couldn't get into it when I finally saw it. It had a number of fun moments, of course, and fun quotes for later, but mostly I just couldn't really care about what was happening.
Then again, I could barely stay awake through Dark Crystal when I saw it as an adult. So possibly this is one of those see-it-at-a-formative-age situations, or possibly I am just an uncultured savage. Either is possible!
