IndustriousAngel Posted December 10, 2014 Share Posted December 10, 2014 hmm ... don't know what exactly counts as fantasy - Gremlins 1+2 are very high on my overall list but maybe they're too little pure fantasy, as is Life of Brian - so I did it without them: 1. Lord of the Rings (I count them as one big movie) 2. The Dark Crystal 3. The Princess Bride 4. Big Fish 5. Spirited Away 6. Big Trouble in Little China 7. The Hobbit (again, all three count as one) 8. The Fountain 9. Hudson Hawk 10. Stardust In case something doesn't count, runner-ups are: Pan's Labyrinth, Edward Scissorhands, Time Bandits, Willow, Your Highness, The Brothers Lionheart, Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon, The Forbidden Kingsom, Eric the Viking, Excalibur ... hell there's a lot of them runner-ups isn't it?

Jessie Posted December 10, 2014 Share Posted December 10, 2014 Fellowship of the ring is one of my favourite films so I guess that would have to be number 1 for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

peludo Posted December 11, 2014 Share Posted December 11, 2014 Love that you have DH1. Azkaban is still my favorite. It is completely different to the rest of Potter films. It has an absurd touch that I love. But I like a lot the darkness and pre-ending feeling you get seeing DH1. A very solid film, IMO. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

peludo Posted December 11, 2014 Share Posted December 11, 2014 ^ If Groundhog Day or Star Wars can be taken into account, I have to change my list Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noctis Posted December 11, 2014 Author Share Posted December 11, 2014 Star Wars is definitely fantasy. I forgot about Button! I have to change my list. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BK007 Posted December 11, 2014 Share Posted December 11, 2014 Gonna quickly type up RTs list 50 Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince 49 Black Orpheus (1959) 48 Howl's Moving Castle 47 Shrek 46 Kung Fu Panda 45 Shrek 2 44 Hellboy 2 43 The Dance of Reality (2014) 42 The Adventures of Baron Munchausen (1989) 41 Tangled 40 Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire 39 Beauty and the Beast 38 My Neighbour Totoro 37 Time Bandits 36 Princess Mononoke 35 Sleeping Beauty 34 Frozen 33 James and the Giant Peach 32 The Little Mermaid 31 Blancanieves (2013) 30 Jason and the Argonauts (1963) 29 The Secret of Nimh 28 Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban 27 Coraline 26 How to Train Your Dragon 2 25 LOTR Fellowship of the Ring 24 Aladdin 23 Enchanted 22 Secret World of Arrietty 21 Orpheus (1950) 20 Yellow Submarine (1968) 19 Thief of Baghdad (1924) 18 Kiki's Delivery Service 17 Tale of the Princess Kaguya 16 the Witches (1990) 15 Ugetsu Monogatari (1954) 14 The Princess Bride 13 LOTR Return of the King 12 Pan's Labyrinth 11 Spirited Away 10 Thief of Baghdad (1940) 09 LOTR The Two Towers 08 Fantasia 07 Beauty and the Beast (1946) 06 How to Train Your Dragon 05 Monty Python and the Holy Grail 04 Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows 2 03 Pinocchio 02 Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs 01 The Wizard of Oz Wow. It was basically the animated, Harry Potter and LOTR show. Guess there haven't been that many good fantasy movies. Then again, it would have been very restricted as to what could have been done back then, so it makes sense. Fantasy is one of my favourite genres so always good to see more movies being made in the genre. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
