• Muppet Treasure Island

  Kseniya's fav: Muppet Treasure Island is a full-on adventure movie yet also totally in the Muppet World, making it a delight at any audience age. Curry manages to be tremendously endearing and (spoiler) disarmingly evil at the same time, and all the…Read moreRead more of this annotation

  August: Clue is a perfect film, idk how to even put into words how and why a board game movie can be so much fun.

  Lori: Curry's narration of A Series of Unfortunate Events lives on in my head forever. I was really hoping they would re-record The Wide Window, The Miserable Mill, and The Austere Academy with him as narrator so the set would be complete.

  Natalie: He's my favorite version of Pennywise. That's a core moment watching him in IT and tons of nightmares thanks to his performance.

• Sabriel

  Nix, Garth,

  James: Tim Curry narrated the audiobooks of the Abhorsen trilogy by Garth Nix. I believe this is his most iconic role, chewing the scenery and saying "Death" with such extravagant relish that you can tell it's capitalized.

• Home Alone 2

  Jessica: Curry plays the hotel concierge who suspects correctly that Kevin is alone in the big city. Kevin plays a prank on the concierge, and Curry's facial expressions are hilarious.

  Jen: I saw Rocky Horror Picture Show as a tween and loved the campy characters and raucous vibe. After replaying the video so much I memorized the songs, I went to my first audience participation and was blown away by how life (audience) imitated…Read moreRead more of this annotation

  Jerry: I thought Tim was a really good villain in that movie. I'm thinking of a certain conversation between him and another character, but I don't think it can be repeated in a booklist. The movie did have some clever, if cliche, dialogue in it.

  Allison: Curry as Rooster singing Easy Street with Carol Burnett and Bernadette Peters is my all time favorite movie musical number. His slicked back, middle parted hair and villainous mustache: TC is pure joy to watch as he moves between sexy and…Read moreRead more of this annotation
