And that’s not all they want...

-

John P They should use puppets as much as possible and cram in as many crazy ideas as they can.

Heather Alison Hoggle and Ludo have started a reign of terror in the Labyrinth, and they need to be overthrown.

David Waxx Labyrinth hasn’t got a good story. Its selling point was boundary-pushing effects; and the remake wouldn’t live up to that. Imagine if they made the story worse though… Carl Gibson Less lunchbox! Andy Baxter Maybe we can learn more about the Goblin King’s history. Is there a whole Goblin Royal House? Do they battle for the crown? Lots of storytelli­ng potential in that backstory. Leo Lorusso Jennifer Connelly!

Gerry Gaffney A slightly detached sequel may work or possibly a darker, grittier prequel about how the Goblin King came to power and got his singing voice.

Lee Hodkinson Get Jennifer Connelly back again and merge the storyline with her Requiem For A Dream character – we find out she was just on a drug-fuelled fantasy all along.

Sham Zaman A beautiful fantasy epic that will expand the universe with loveable relatable characters that will be passed down the generation­s as an example of what film is capable of. Not much then.

Jack Woodgate A reboot or retelling of the story would also be problemati­c. Looking at Labyrinth though 21st century eyes is quite creepy. You’ve basically got a 15-year-old girl being hit on by an older man (played by a rock star).

Harry P Yes! Do remake it! But do it well, make it a good film – because you know what, the original’s rubbish. Childish rubbish. There, I’ve said it. Plus many, many variations of…

Fran Donohoe Nothing, just don’t do it, leave it alone.

Nathan Paul Kennedy I wish it wasn’t happening, and I won’t spend a penny on watching it.

Stephen Pasqua I want to see it canned for the stupid idea that it is!

Zvezdan Karasi Just leave things alone already!
