I'd forgotten how much I love Labyrinth. Hurrah for eighties music, David Bowie, and muppets! And the pit of eternal stench! And Ludo! And Hoggle!
...My secret seven-year-old personality half is proving to be not so secret, hm?
One thing I noticed, though, was near the beginning of the movie, when everyone is getting Hoggle's name wrong, Sarah calls him Hogwart. Since J. K. Rowling has said she borrows interesting names whenever she hears them, I'll bet that's where the Hogwarts School of Witchcraft & Wizardry came from. It's definitely a strange enough word that it seems to stretch chance pretty far to call the two places it appears coincidence, right?
