Thinking about how the film adaptation of A Neverending Story left out one of the primary traits of The Nothing, being that it is hypnotically alluring to the creatures of Fantastica, and there are several scenes depicting creatures willingly throwing themselves into oblivion - not only killed but wiped out of existence entirely. At one point Atreyu is stranded on the fading edges of reality and wanders an abandoned kingdom before hearing music, following the sound, and witnessing a procession march of magical beasts and creatures playing a funeral dirge as they march right into the Nothing, one after one leaping to their total obliteration like lemmings.
Wonder why the movie didn't have that scene.
