When I was little i'd always fall asleep like 3 quarters a way into the film, so I convinced myself it actually never ended
... brilliant
_Darth Maul laugh_
*BRILLIANT*
Just made this 100 likes ... I win the nothing
Noice
Brilliant and wholesome
@@adamscott7354 I was not privy to where you were going with that sentence. But now, I know it was a good joke
"The bowl cut for every male protagonist from 1973 to 1998" 😂
So darn accurate!
So glad you called them out for ignoring the entire second half of the novel.
I was shocked when I read it lol
It's been over 30 years since I even thought about the book after I became obsessed with the movie. I don't even remember. I need to go back.
Me too
so sad the movie has almost nothing in common with the book
is it just me or was anyone else slightly bummed the name Michael Ende wasn't mentioned once?
Watching that horse drown again gives me childhood PTSD
You really shouldn't read the book then (you should, it is fantastic, but still). In the book that scene is 5 times worse
@@tilltronje1623 how so?
@@jacobhafar538 Artax can talk and gives a heart wrenching death dialogue
@@tilltronje1623 Oh dear god
You're so not lying.
The horse scene still makes me sad. Such a well done movie for its time.
“ARTAX!!!!”
I still have saddening nightmares from that scene
That's definitely in my Top 5 of saddest movie deaths.
I cried so much when the guy lost his horse... And i can still hear him screaming.... AGRO!!!!
The horse scene always made me laugh cuz u can see the horse teeth so i always thought he was laughing
Please say: "Marty... Whatever happens, don't ever go to 2020"
Enrique Vergara YEEEESS!! Lol 😂
2020....refund please
@Rayman Elsa Anna Olaf
Just back from there.... AND I AM NOT GOING BACK, EVER. YOU THINK 2020 IS BAD? YOU HAVE SEEN NOTHING!
36 years later and I'm still traumatized by him eating the apple core.
When he said that I was really expecting a cinemasins ding sound lol
Apple cores are actually quite delicious. I never throw them away.
@@darkop861 Yes, but the seeds contain cyanide, so...
@@darkop861 I eat the core if I eat an apple and one time years ago my niece was with her mom at her moms friend's house. They caught her trying to sneak the cores of the apples they ate in a plastic bag so they asked what she was doing. She was planning on giving them to me since I eat them. It was sweet then but now she's older we tease her about it. Like yes I eat them but only if I eat the apple. I don't just eat the cores, I'm not a farm animal lol.
@@tonyblake7569 same here, only when I've already eaten most of the apple
"And how your mom watches TV." So accurate, but you should have also included shots of Bastian asking why the characters are doing what they're doing and whether so-and-so is really the bad guy.
Nice. My mom doesn't do any of the things they show Bastian doing, but does both of the things you listed.
"...to the point where horses literally drown themselves in sadness."
Bojack: Uuuuuuuuuuhhhhh....
Marry me.
Damn I think NS foreshadowed Bojack.
*BACK IN THE NINTIES I WAS IN A VERY FAMOUS MOVIEE SHOOWWW*
@John O'Neill Congrats! 🌟🌟🌟🌟
I'm just starting to watch the show, episode 8 season 1... So he drowned himself in the swimming pool... Oh daaamn.
The Artax scene and the Gmork are why my therapist has such a nice beach house.
SAME
Oh man. Every 80’s kid feels this in their soul.
Don’t forget Meg Mucklebones from Legend! I still have flashbacks...
I think the Big Bad Wolf made me anxious for several months... This movie and I....it's a love-hate relationship.
I laughed way too hard at this. Also, SO FREAKING TRUE!!! The Gmork especially screwed me up when I was a kid.
You didn't even touch on the fact he's skipping school and nobody misses him or cares!
The book covers it. He's gone for a day and it's a bank holiday. Time dilation stuff.
Isn't that how schools were in the 80s? lol.
I did the same, in fact I often skipped school to spend the day in our local scifi/fantasy bookstore.
Oh I had a great childhood, now thinking about it.
80's Movies: When it was fine to traumatise your children with PG "kid friendly" movies.
The R films - I'm about to end this whole innocence's career...
Laughs in watership down
Yeah, even the animated ones; Secret of Nimh, An American Tail, The Land Before Time (basically Don Bluth films in general)
@@Native_Creation Don't forget All dogs go to heaven. *shiver* (Edit: I just realised Don Bluth was responsible for that one too! What is it with that guy???)
@@nalafira5433 chuckles in Animal Farm..
"... Bleak, depressing and thoroughly German"?
The autor Michael Ende was actually very disappointed because the movie was too campy, kitschy and Disney.
You ain't seen German until you read the second half of the book ;)
Yes, the first part of the book is even the fun one :D
Hab den zweiten Teil immer noch nicht gelesen weil ich mich total gelangweilt hab irgendwie dann 😁
I got the book from the library, just to find out what he named the Childlike Empress (Moon Child?? After hiss mom???) and discovered that this scene was only a third of the way into the book! And the print changed colorss, depending on whether it was in Fantasia or Bastian's world. Cool!
I'm just glad they left out the horse talking while losing the will to live. That broke me.
@@wurdnurd1
A horse is a horse, of course, of course,
And no one can talk to a horse of course
That is, of course, unless the horse is imminently ded.
"And the bowl cut of every young male protagonist form 1973 to 1998".
Wow....amazing how it is actually 100% factual.
bowl* cut
I'm pretty sure one of them is my older brother, from the same era.
let's be really honest here, it is the bowl cut of every young male ever... always. Neverending.
Yes lol
I hated every boy in the movies having the same haircut for decades.
Artex’s death was literally the most traumatizing thing in this movie... I was so upset when he died
It's worse in the book. In the book Artax can talk. "Leave me, I can't go on..." That kind of stuff.
The only thing that gets me through Artax's death scene is knowing that he's brought back to life at the end.
Does he? I was so traumatized, I don't even remember that part!
That's what happens. Woah. It's been awhile. He didn't come back to life in the book.
@@avivastudios2311 Pretty much everyone came back to life. Except for Gmork. Probably.
Only in the movie though. In the book his death is final
This is that movie that I watched when I was a kid, and then when I got older I didn't know if it actually existed or if I had just made it up in my mind
That's exactly how I felt about this movie for a long time :D
I'm glad wasn't the only one who thought that.
Me too!! But I do remember the dragon dog 😍
I had same situation with Czech series about a guy, that had third eye hidden on the back of his head... And damn, so many 'caring' people assured me, that it was my sick imagination! Fu***ng liars! The series exists!!
I'm the exact same way about "Return to Oz".
"That you mostly remember for the amazing Luck Dragon."
Me, having flashbacks of from being a four-year-old and watching the terrifying wolf hiding in the dark cave, growling with his sharp teeth and scary monologue: ...Yes, that's what I remember the most. The dragon.
Artex dying was what screwed me up the most. I haven't watched that scene since I was a kid. I always skip past it. I can't handle it.
I still won't watch that wolf scene. Still scares the crap out of me... like the Pirates scene in the Garfield Halloween special. I'm a wuss.
Me too. Got nightmares for weeks after watching it the first time. I left the room when i rewatched eventually whenever that wolf got another scene...
The Mhork racing across the Swamp of sadness and Atreyu being saved at the last minute is amazing.
Yeah, that wolf gave me nightmares. The whole movie scared me to pieces, really. 🙃
I remember my parents recording this movie on a video VHS tape and my sister and I watching it over and over. Really good childhood memories. I never liked the sequels though. But every kid needs to see this movie.
I felt ripped off because this movie was false advertising. I thought it was never going to end but it did.
Trust me, by the end of the 3rd movie, EVERYONE wanted it to end.
I felt the same until I read the book where the title gets actually explained.
No it didn't. You just aren't allowed to see it continue. And the direction the movies started going, you should be thankful. 😜
It's not called "The NeverEnding Movie".
@@jp3813 EXActly. 👍
'Mr. Simpson, this is the most blatant case of fraudulent advertising since my suit against the film ‘The Neverending Story''
say it!
@@sergioguzman4550 …!Xobile…!
Were those the actions of a man that had all he could eat?
@@tims4502 That could have been me!
Lionel Hutz, attorney at law.
This is probably the most accurate Honest Trailer ever.
Ah, the '80s.
Lionel Hutz: This is the most blatant case of false advertising since my suit against the movie The Neverending Story.
I was in my 20's by the time of this movie so that Simpsons reference is literally the ONLY thing I know about this movie.
This book (I didn't like the movie, because I read the book first) was the first one to ever make me cry and it was this horse-scene that did it
Also funfact for all those non-Germans: the Authors name is "Michael Ende", his last name translates to "End". So Mr End wrote the NeverENDING Story.... Xd
This, Labyrinth, and Back to the Future had the dopest theme songs of 80's movie classics.
Commando, Bloodsport, Escape from New York, Halloween, Top Gun, Terminator, Karate Kid, Ghostbusters, Beverly Hills Cop, Gremlins, I can go on and on..
“Great A-Tuin.” I see that you’re a man of culture. 🐢 🐘

Fabulousmyriad Excellent 👍🏽
The horse scene is all I remember from seeing the movie likely 30+ years ago once in school.
Still scarred.
"Eat an entire apple core.....bleagh." I laughed aloud at that part.
"The biggest block of butter we've ever seen."
True. those Germans sure love their butter.
yeah we do.... but be honest, everything's better with butter
BE C A butcher I used visit in Maryland had Amish butter and it was sold in large blocks like that.
@@poisoned4000 What about belgian beer?
tbh, this just looks like a standard block of butter here in germany XD
@@masafromhell While we Germans make great pilsner and white beer, I just love the variety of Belgian beers. Both are great depending on the occasion ;)
How could you fail to talk about the awesomely terrifying wolf! He was like, the nightmare king for any '80s kid that hadn't seen nightmare on elm street!
I know its a sad moment when Artax sinks, but that cry of "Noooooooo" is the most hilarious moment in this video to me
„The wolf who cried boy“, looool.
The second half of the book is sorta hinted at. Bastion gets god-like unlimited wishing power and the very first thing he does is get revenge. He could have wished that his bullies had more empathy for kids weaker than them, but he instead uses a terrifying screaming dragon to exact vengeance. The audience just ignores that because of the triumphant music score, and the awesomeness of Falcor. But if a dark, sinister theme played during that last scene.....
So kinda like Dune without Dune Messiah.
I totally agree with his wish. Not dark. Just showing people who like to pass out terror what it really feels like. He should of eaten one.😆😆😆😆😆😆😈 Just kidding. Or AM I?????
Nerf Bastion
I never read the second half of the book, but I kinda wanna see this now.
He could've wished for his mom to be alive again
Funny cause it's true! Never realized how unstoppable the bowl cut boys were.
I actually saw my mom put a bowl on my brother's head when he was around 5 and cut around the rim. My kids didn't believe their cool Uncle Kevin looked dorkier than Will from Stranger Things until I found some old family photos.
It was never fashion. It was moms who would rather cut their boys hair then take him to the barber.
@@kristinb8172 nice 🙂
I remember one of the first times I ever felt nostalgia was watching the horse scene when I was 9. I feel I've been an emo from then on.
"How your mom watches TV"
I feel personally attacked
Lacking in story? Maybe so. But it makes up for it by being incredibly engaging and atmospheric.
The costume design is incredible!
Lacking story don't think so. The whole journey leads to Bastian becoming the creator of his own story and destiny. Without every single step he would not have been able to arc.
Not convinced yet? Bastian is very inactive in the beginning and more active when he realizes that his actions have influence on a world he cares of. He noticrs that he can also have an influence on his own world. :)
"How your mom watches TV"
Me: Ooof, that is... too accurate.
I thought they will show him stuffing his face, that would be mean...
I thought I was the only person whose mom watches TV like that until he said that line lol
Yeah I bursted into laughters once I heard it. Waaay too relatable
It hits hard bro
My mom keeps pausing and rewinding and and asking me to explain what’s going on.
Legit watched this with my little girl the other day, she loved it. And the Discworld reference, well played sir.
The part that always got me as a kid was how Bastian's dad just straight up mixes a raw egg with his orange juice. As a kid, I thought that seemed delicious and adult, for some reason.
Do Big Trouble in Little China, this movie was made for an Honest Trailer
One of the best action movies of the 80's, it's amazing! Also got to love Tango and Cash and Bird on a Wire
Oh please please please
YESYESYES!!
THIS THIS THIS THIS THIS THIS THIS OMG. Jack Burton is my spirit animal. GIVE JACK YOUR BEST SHOT, HONEST TRAILERS, HE CAN TAKE IT
Yes please
I watched the movie in the 90's, and read the book in 2009. I was SO shocked when I reached the second half of the book!
Mister Eden dont like movi and its story alternation.
Absolute same reaction when I read it.
Am I the only one that thinks there's no way Bastian's super uptight dad would have a kid with someone named Moonchild?
☝️🤷♀️ This is some weird kind of urban legend among English audience. The German original book never mentions the name of his mother, not even a nickname. It's only mentioned briefly how she got sick and Bastian's father changed afterwards, and that "inventing names" is the only thing Bastian thinks he's good at.
Maybe he wasn't uptight until hippy mom died
Her name was Moonchild? I thought Margawahwahwah.
That's what I heard the kid say.
@@schattenvolkofficial1121 in the English version of the book, "Moonchild" is the name he gave her. Its the name he called out in the film. Prior to that *in the film* he said "Its too bad they don't ask me...my Mother, she had such a WONDERFUL name!" So despite what's in the book, in the film canon, his mom's name was Moonchild, which isn't so out of the realm of possibility if she or her folks were ever hippies.
@@DarkWillUser I was just thinking that Moonchild sounds like a hippy name!
"Journey to a world of never-ending misery"...so this movie is about 2020?
LOL! This made me laugh so hard!
If you've never seen butter that big, you've probably not been to Wisconsin.
I hear the butter is legen-dairy.
Looks like standard size for butter in New Zealand to me.
"bleak, depressing and thoroughly German"
you could've just said German
My Bavarian wife approves of this message! Haha
oof
@@Cubcariboo Hope your wife is no Fränkin. Otherwise me being an Oberbayerin would have to remind everyone that Franken is no true part of Bavaria ;)
Now there was equal chance bleak and depressing could be referring to a Russian story
Sounds like a Wagner referance
Omg please do Honest Trailer of Megamind! Underrated, introspective, iconic
Loving the theme song of this movie. It is a literal perfection of a combination of 80's and fantasy genre from that time.
Tuuurrn around, look at what you seeeeeeeeeeee
@@unofficialspider-man465in her face, the mirror of your dreams…
Make believe I’m everywhere, hidden in the lines…
@@unofficialspider-man465 ‘written on the pages, is the answer to a NeverEnding Story’….Keith Forsey and Giorgio Moroder produced one incredible record.
"The schools creepy hookup attic."
Never thought of it like that before. LOL.
I loved that book and movie but always thought they should have called it “how to escape child abuse”
i mean theres a full on matress in there.......
Funny how that classic bright cheery 80's school had an attic right out of Amityville.
@@oddish4352 Right. That's because it's a german book playing in a german school that resembles in nothing the school in the movie. It was made like an american school because the movie makers wanted to sell the film world-wide. Meaning the US in 1984.
The book is in so much respects better than this film.
Don't be knocking Falcor. He's the only creature in the film I wasn't innately terrified of when they came on screen.
I loved Artax 😢
I love Falcor, but in truth he's terrifying. Lol
The Epic Voice Guy's voice has gone a lot higher over the years
still my childhood favourite.
"I'm trying to watch, Mom! Shut up!" I cried laughing at that.
😁😁
Came to upvote this
I looked around guiltily because I AM that mom who watches TV like that.
100% my mother tho
I was expecting a Stranger Things reference (Susie and “Dusty Buns” duet)!
There's alot of fans that don't like or want that reference!
@@jarednil69 Their loss :)
Actually on some shots Bastien looks a lot like Will ;p
I hope we get a Stranger Things 2 Honest Trailer soon. It's long overdue.
I had to lol at the dragon stuff
This film was the first to teach you that “you never know what someone is going through.”
Your horse might be clinically depressed, man! 😭😭😭
Can you guys do an honest trailer for the breakfast club
And can you say
"The breakfast club never actually ate breakfast"
Yes.
You know you wanna say it....: "Dont mess with the bull young man, you get the horns!"
@@irontusk341 no not really
@@sage4365 I'm pretty sure the only reason that it's called the breakfast club is because they were all in detention in the morning and they ended up becoming friends
If would make more sense if it was called the morning club or something like that but nope.
This was the most expensive movie made outside usa at the time
I think it actually was the most expensive German produced movie Of all time until *Perfume*, but I might be somewhat mistaken.
You forgot to say “fun fact:”.
I didn’t even know it wasn’t produced in the u.s.
@@bones22j there's no fun in Germany, go back to work!
Wait, this was German?
I'm the Pratchett geek who's here to say A'TUIN REFERENCE! Love it.
Therapist: So tell me where it all began
Me: 0:55
Fans: "A timeless classic"
Author: "Remove my name from this monstrosity"
Hollywood: "Can we remake this but make it a cinematic universe?"
I mean it had two completely unrelated sequels instead of actually doing the epic second half of the book, so does that count?
@@nicolaistuhlmuller8718 the second movie did have aspects of the book. the third movie though was an act of vandalism.
@@ryanweible9090 gonna be honest here, the third movie is my fav
@@ryanweible9090 True, but at least Jack Black is clearly having a blast in it.
My luck is so strange I just watched this movie the first time yesterday
Journey to a world of never-ending misery where the heroes are bullied, the locations need therapy, and existence is collapsing in on itself like a fortnite storm made of nihilism!
Sounds fun they should make a theme park
There already *is* Disneyland!
Michael Ende would go nuts.
Are you by any chance referencing the news that came out yesterday about the Neon Genesis Evangelion theme park they’re now building?
There actually was a ride in a theme park in Germany that depicted the Neverending Story :D It was located in the former Warner Brothers Movie World.
@Jasper Janssen Actually no but that is some weird timing
Please do an Honest Trailer about ‘Flight Of The Navigator’.
My favorite childhood movie EVER!!!!
Please say “Dance your cares away. Worries for another day. Let the music play. Down in Fraggle Rock.”
Make an honest trailer of Matilda! That kids movie had so many dark elements (the scariest school ever)
Heck yeah! That was a good movie!
how your mom watches tv
lmao the accuracy though 😂😭
Say, "They look like big strong hands, don't they? I always thought that's what they were."
Nooo stop! I know everyone goes on about Artax's death but that part always gets me more than the horse thing.
"how your mom watches tv" truer words have never been said lmaoooo
I have been in that attic! When I was a student at Queen Mary Elementary school in North Vancouver, BC, Canada.
They filmed much of this movie in Vancouver after I had gone on to highschool. In the theatre we were astonished to see our old hangout. 😎
That is so cool!!!
all of this time..I thought the attic was a movie set
A lot of movies film in BC... and go to Quebec for CGI.
That's so awesome!
The Never Ending Story was EPIC then & it's still EPIC today.
Animal deaths are always sad, but Artax's death was downright traumatizing!
Years of Honest Trailers, and we just NOW get a Discworld reference?!
Better than never.
Y'all don't even know how much this film has meant to my life.
I first saw it when I was 5 (circa 1990), & it was the most fantastical, terrifying, and wondrous thing I'd yet seen. It was my favorite film for many years, it helped inform my aesthetic tastes and worldview, it's why my graduate thesis was about metafiction, and it's why my second tattoo was of the Auryn.
I hope you also bothered to read the book at one point?
Nice! It also molded my young mind into studying theology and spiritualism and symbolism and anthroposophy
"Bastian SAY MY NAME!!!!"
she practically begging for it dude
HEISENBERG
We need The Goonies!!!
I was literally reading he book today. Artax the horse talks!! Atreyu is green!
Damnit Disney, going and light tan- washing
The book has such amazing imagery that was impossible to capture in the 80s. I can't believe I'm saying this, but I kind of want a CGi remake!
Yet Hollywood didn't hire a actually green person to play him. Racist.
@@Jekyllstein_Gray I'd just love a high budget tv series that adapts the second half of the book too
I'd be down for a two part remake or a tv series that follows the second half.
Mannnnnn. Thee one and ONLY thing I've ever requested was THIS movie from like over a year or two ago and I was soo hoping to see my name up there... T_T I'm so flippin sad.
Please say: I am the terror that flaps in the night, I am the trailer who spoils your film! I am Darkwing Duck!
I AM THE ALPHA AND THE AMIGA
The fact that you added a Discworld reference has endeared you to me forever.
A Discworld reference??? I see this is a channel of culture.
My little Discworld geek heart at that reference! :D Upset I had to scroll this far down to find someone mentioning it.
Best starring bit that I've seen in a while.
I kept scrolling in search of this comment
Right?
The Turtle Moves

@@ssh1487 I am German and offendich is not a word xD The translation for 'offended' is 'angegriffen', 'gekränkt', or 'beleidigt', depending on the context. We also have no humour and love correcting mistakes, so I felt culturally obliged to write this.
I think if you watch a Werner Herzog movie, they all come together.
@@alinaoktaria Grammar Na*censored*
The watching TV with your mom thing made me burst out laughing lol
"I like (won't enter the word to avoid being flagged myself)" "You were unconcious" LoooL I laughted so hard.
“The first time reading the Red Wedding” I FELT that 😖
Most erotic scene in the series though ;) Well ... almost ... after Tommen's jump and "the boy who should have zig zagged" maybe.
“I know what killed Bastian mom’s: Salmonela!” LOL I laughed more than I should.
I admit, that was a good one.
This is such a nostalgic experience lol
From all the amazing books that had been butchered on film I think this is the worst case. The Neverending Story is one of the best books ever written, yes, is dark, is philosophical, is complex, breaks the fourth wall in a wonderful way and it's not for everybody. The only way to adapt it properly could be a miniseries for Amazon prime or something like that. Amazing book ❤️ actually I think i'm gonna read it again 😆
Oh my God the look on the kid's face when the dragon says, "you were unconscious." 🤣🤣🤣
Between this movie and in ‘86 when they killed Optimus Prime, it’s amazing I didn’t turn out to be a more morbid, depressed adult.
It shouldn't be surprising that the 90s gave us Grunge music and solidified the Goth style.
Double D it's because Duke survived the GI Joe movie and gave you hope
Both Artax and Optimus were ressurected so it wasn't all that sad.
1:20 FACTS: They are all the same kid
I grew up watching this movie, I love it and probably watched it a million times. I remember being heart crushed when he horse died, such a heartbreaking scene.
When will we get a Goonies honest trailer? Asking for a friend
It better not mention the Octopus version!!!
Probably just after the Legend of Zelda movie honest trailer.
I like your friend.
He's asking for Sloth.
For real!!
Rocky 5 definitely needs the honest trailer treatment.
The locations need therapy 😂 I didn't remember the movie being this dark...
3:40 A Discworld reference? It seems I underestimated you Honest Trailer Guy, well done.
I thought it was a skyrim reference. Great Alduin 😭
I noticed that too, it made me so happy!
@@jeromealday614 I mean, there *are* subtitles and all....
This made me love Honest Trailers even more
Random fact: my step sisters and their mom are background extras in two different scenes during the street scenes at the beginning of the film.

Nice
Say, “are you lost baby gurl”
The film is a classic, but *gods the book is an underrated masterpiece...*
"Bastion becomes a becomes power-hungry mad man that tries to take over the kingdom."
