It's a good thing Tami got out of Hollywood when she had the chance. She looks fantastic and seems like she's living a good life. Hollywood would have destroyed that and took it all away from her. God Bless Tami.

[@Iceis_Phoenix]

She just spoke up. She had stalkers.

[@pdraggy]

Child stars hah

[@metalmacabre9991]

Its not just Hollywood, it also has to do with parenting. Parents who watch their children, and dont trust just anyone dont have this kind of problem with their child star children. Its the parents who are too trustworthy with strangers that this kind of shit happens to.

[@ColinPoole]

@@metalmacabre9991 Drugs and alcohol - every single child actor who goes down a bad path does so with the help of drugs and alcohol. But as you said, that's the same in normal life as well - so it does come back to the parents and home-life. The only reason it's so prevalent in Hollywood is because more money means faster and easier access to drugs and alcohol. Drew Barrymore said she started drinking at age 9 and was onto weed and cocaine by age 12/13. The laundry list of young actors who have done jail time - all of them were abusing drugs and alcohol - from RDJ to Keifer Sutherland to River Phoenix - all the people with bad wrap sheets were drug users or big drinkers.

She’s aged very very well and doesn’t look fake and bursting with filler like everyone else. Agree.

[@matt_canon]

Won't lie. She was my first crush. I was 6 or 7 the first time I saw it. I know I wasn't the only one, as our school would watch it once a year. Every single time the movie got to where Atreyu walked up the steps to meet her everyone jus kind of sat up, leaned forward expectedly in their seats. -- And then after the movie all denied it. "I don't like her!" "Yes you do!" "You were blushing!" "No I wasn't" "You like her too!" "Nuh uh!!" Every single year. 🤣

This movie and the book is the reason I became an illustrator. I saw the movie when it came out and that first image of the ivory tower forever changed my life when I was 14. I knew then that I wanted to create worlds like that myself. And I’ve been working in illustration creating a lot of fantasy art for 30 years now. All because one day I saw this movie. I love both cuts of the movie, the Hollywood one we all know and the original German cut with added scenes and different dialogues. Atreyu and the childlike empress in the original cut have even better performances when we see the complete original scenes.

Not really. She looks like a normal 40 something woman. Women just aren't allowed to age.

[@shakezoola1114]

I really like the taste in media both of them have. I also really like both answers to the first question. And while I wholeheartedly agree with what Mr. Hathaway said about movies, I also can't help myself with some of the MCU or things of the like. Some of them are just so dang fun. Honestly they could do a podcast or two together answering questions or with a list of media related topics or something. I could listen to their takes on lots of stuff.

Noah rocks. I 100% relate. As for Tami, it's weird hearing all the "when I was little, she was so beautiful". She was a kid!!! A really little kid! My dad drooled for her too. All I'm saying is she was a damn *child* so keep looks out of it. It's creepy.

[@jessicaferrari3987]

I think you are applying your rightful "disgust" or "concern" for you father to people that were kids when they were finding these other kids attractive. I was like 8 when I had a crush on Atreyu's actor. He was what, 11-12? Idk...but it feels really normal. Kids have attraction for other kids and it is the healthiest thing! I think you could think about this in a way that makes you less upset with people. They (and me) are talking about stomach butterflies for finding a kid beautiful/handsome (which they objectively were, they were casted also for being pleasing on the screen), in a time when they were probably younger or the same age as the actors! 😅 Your dad was a bit creepy thou. Drooling over a child. That...yeah, no. 😂 We, instead, were also "really little kids"!❤ Btw, Noah is nothing as "pleasing looking" as he was as a kid, but I would fall for a guy like him today, no bs, straight to the point, deep layered. A dude with marks on his skin methaphorically and literally. With different ages we appreciate different things! Or that's how it should work I think. Well, your father would say otherwise probably 😂 just kidding, was ment as a harmless dark joke. I had a father that was way way way worse, so...let's just laugh about creepy fathers.

[@rym2728]

Your post is super disturbing and creepy! Did you not have any crushes when you were a child? If not then that’s weird. The fact that you would post something about your father, an adult, “drooling” over the appearance of a child is beyond weird. You criticize grown adults for saying they had crushes on child actors WHEN they were children of the same age. How is that weird? It’s pretty normal and healthy behavior to have crushes as a child btw. You admit for some strange reason on a public forum without any provocation that your own father was some weird, creepy, perverted pedo. That’s weird. You call people weird when YOU’RE the weirdo. I’m sure you’ve spent a lot of money and time on therapy but what gives you the right to criticize and belittle other people? Go unpack your own messed up childhood on some INFJ platform and stop judging and gaslighting people who are fans of The Neverending Story. Geez. We all pray that you get the help that you need and have been looking for soon 🙏.
