It was a series. Kind of like The Hobbit or Lord of the rings.

It had a “little person” as the center. He supposedly had wizard like powers.

Heroes journey type show.

It was a TV series that came out not too long ago.

I know we talked about it here on the board when it was on not too long ago.

I know it’s vague but that’s all I got. Any suggestions?

Specifically, it was a TV series sequel to the 1980s movie, and featured Warwick Davis in the same role as the main character.

Frankly my memory of the movie is hazy – I do have some fond memories but how much of that is nostalgia I cannot say. Of course I hope it is good (there are few reasons to hope something is bad( [[Willow | Official Trailer | Disney+] ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=da7BYWyvwO8) Brian

Unfortunately it’s one of the shows Disney+ completely removed from the channel.

I mostly remember the great arcade video game.

About the only thing I remember from the film is “Which finger has the power?”
