A very underrated movie.
With vivid animation.
Combined with live action that holds up even today.
Take a journey with Horror.
Adventure!
And Fantasy...
'Just this once...'

This was one of the movies my cousins and I would reenact after watching it. The bunkbed became the tree house.

Good movie. Terrible music at the end as he was fighting the dragon.

This movie had me scared to eat anything with seeds as a kid
JakubMcJabbo
I'm going to see that right now, mister...

Fucking hated that movie as a kid, the creepy book scared the shit out of me for some reason.

Mom's been a 4th and 5th grade English teacher since '01. She would show this and Indian in the Cupboard on their free days for years.

THIS MOVIE WAS A HUGE PART OF MY FORMATIVE YEARS!!!!! Real talk though: if you haven’t seen this movie, do it.

“Whatever You Imagine” by Wendy Moten is the title song for this movie.

I watched this high. Still can’t remember a damn thing about the movie.
Clarhilary
So many nightmares from this movie...

Face your fears!

I still love this movie since childhood. :)
lDanielHolm
It was called "Lord of the Books" in Danish. Not nearly as good a title, IMO.
VaIerie
I LOVED this movie! The ending song always made me cry.

Underrated? I'm 26 and still put it in once in a while.
Skiplow
One of my favorite movies from my childhood. It blew my mind seeing animation and live acting like that for the first time.

Saw it in theaters back then (I was 11), I loved it. Saw it again recently, it was rather a snoozefest. The animation is nice, but that's it
FalafelOutTheWiseau
18% on Rotten Tomatoes. They're not always right but I think they got this one.
xCrimx
As a kid, the Dr. Jekyll/Mr. Hyde scene would scare me every time.
artistsconcept
Omg thank you! I totally forgot about this movie until I saw this. Beautiful animation
karlbadmanners
This movie kinda sucked watching it again as an adult :(
PiratePaisan
That movie was my favorite for a long time. The animation was so far ahead of its time.
theguywiththememes
OH MY GOD I REMEMBER THIS. Dude.... I'm so getting high and watching this later.
BlergenFlerg
Loved the movie. Loved the Sega game
Katlamos
This is still one of mine and my younger sister's favorite movies from our childhood. We saw it in theaters bc The Santa Clause was sold out
Katlamos
And it stuck with us forever. We both even own the BluRay release they made of it!

To this day I still think the Pagemaster PC game was impossible
aegis27
The one for the Gameboy definitely was.
Mechlai
I never made it past horror. I had it for the snes
knickknackpaddywhackgiveadogabone
i had it for the snes, and yeah i bloody was.
KnightWang
The PC game was a point and click adventure, it was *extra* impossible
Mikeythejoker
Is Pagemaster the name of the movie? Am I missing something?
Ch3mis7
Yes it is, watch that shit now.

TheFatDaddy

ImLukeSkywalkerImHereToRescueYou
Agreed. It used to frighten me something fierce, but I still loved watching it.
BDF1838
I used to love this movie as a kid, it was one of the ones I'd rent again and again. I can't even remember the plot.
usernamenamesolongifyoutagmeinyourcommentyouwonthavemuchspace
I always wanted to watch it as a kid, but it was never in Blockbusters...maybe lived in the same neighbourhood...
LBarto
Same, I once spent 3 hours searching for it in college because I couldn't remember the name.
BahamutBBob
Kevin gets kidnapped by a librarian, his mom is done skipping her holidays to find him.
Fr1edToast
Pretty standard heroes tale.
loganrock
Same
AkLonewolf
quick run down.... home alone kid got lost in a book. Stories were had... and good voice acting.
dmax12
Its because it was visual porn with lit throwbacks. Plot inserted to make visuals happen.

Didn't he ride his bike somewhere in a storm after getting into a fight with his dad? Then he gets knocked out or something.
Aingelproject667
Yeah, I remember his bike because it was really odd looking but I wanted a bike like that.
BDF1838
I remember a storm, a big library, and a treehouse. Then lots of cartoon stuff.
TkMacintosh
...I thought he was getting chased by bullies and ran into a nearby library, THEN the storm started?
sadavocado
I think that is never ending story
CaptainMalcolmReynoldsAndBowieAreMyDogsNames
Isnt that Neverending story? Chased by bullies than reads in school or something like that?
Bobsbullshit
Storm started while he was outside. He runs into the library, gets a library card, then slips on the wet floor. Cue the glorious acid trip
brigeMlemWrecker
Yes sir. Thank you for completing that misplaced memory.
Msragdoll
yup! And he was out because his dad needed screws or nails for the treehouse he was building that the kid wasn't really sure of.

Basically it was an Aesop about not beong afraid of everything.
