Is there even any good, or at least watchable fantasy movie besides Lord of the Rings?
Excalibur
Star wars is fantasy
Lord of the Rings is pretty good
>>70069775
WarCraft
Conan
the only truly great fantasy movies are the ones based on the original fantasy texts
Pan's Labyrinth
The Neverending Story
Yes, all three of them
My favorite from my teens was beast master and Sword and the Sorcerer
>>70069797
>>70069844
excellent choices...
>>70069775
Clash of the Titans, Willow, The Princess Bride.
Most of them were made in the 80's. Dragon Slayer, Legend, Ladyhawke, and The Neverending Story are some. ymmv
>>70069775
You should know what is good in life. To Crush your enemies. To see them driven before you, and hear the lamentation of their women.
>>70069775
Your highness, I'm not even trolling
>>70069991
Dragonslayer has always been one of my favorites.
That and Excalibur. Check out Excalibur. It's John Boorman.
kingdom of heaven
yfw if you bought outerra and get an omni treadmill you could literally walk from the shire to mordor in your own bedroom

>>70069844
the conan cartoon was based
>>70069844
This. Conan is fuckin great.
>>70069775
Beastmaster
It's an 80's that hasn't been mentioned yet.
Also, Krull
>>70070183
oh shit, i remember this. it was fucking good.
>>70069775
Dragonheart is comfy.

Is the theme music still used at the Oscars or was it just a few times?

I thought this was about medieval fantasy.
>>70070298
Merlin, the tv movie with Sam Neill
>I may be the only poster on /tv/ who knows what OP's image is from :spoiler: and liked it. :spoiler:
It was a decent joint. The problem with "those" joints is they make the lead or leads uncharismatic wet noodle nobodies and then put in various well known actors to take away any chance for them to make an impression just for good measure. But honestly if the lead was better I would want a sequel. The seventh son of a seventh son premise is a retarded McGuffin to get people to come see it but the unique way the magic stuff was handled and the apprentice stuff was cool.
>>70070407
isn't it seventh son?
>>70070407

>>70070441
You're a pretty well animated guy.
>>70070075
oh i know john boorman well
the oddysey with that italian looking guy who always plays mobsters
>>70070479
Well I wouldn't normally just go and recommend "Zardoz", even though Connery is awesome in it.
One of those you have do discover on your own...
Are you familiar with the first Disney capekino?
>>70070593
no, but i have seen pic related with alan arkin and christopher lee
>>70069838
lol
>>70070075
Game of Thrones, with the exception of Dragonslayer's use of Latin, could almost be part of the same world.
>>70069991
Dragonslayer and Ladyhawke are terrible. They're both so unimaginative and generic, and the musical score for Ladyhawke is an abomination
Legend and Neverending Story are great though, especially Legend.
>>70070183
dude this looks so good
>>70069844
Conan's the best standalone fantasy movie.
>>70070593
Man if only that theme tune didn't have vocals.
The Narnia movies are okay, I guess?
>>70069775
No. Any other questions?
>>70070183
one of my favorite movies senpai
Stardust is pretty good. Not really talked about, but good.
>>70071867
>Dragonslayer
>unimaginitive, generic
Seriously? The protagonist learns he isn't the hero at all and everything he has done was for the worse?
Also, how has nobody mentioned Krull yet?
>>70069985
>Willow
Just one mention of this?
Buncha slack jawed faggots round here.
>>70069775
Picrelated was pretty comfy.
>>70074347
>Willow
It's basically a warning what will Lucas do if unreined.
>>70074371
Used to love that movie as a kid. I'm afraid to rewatch it and stop liking it.
Neverending Story
Conan
The first Pirates of the Caribbean
The Mummy
I also liked that CGI Beowulf movie but the visuals have probably aged like shit
>>70074272
Krull is so good. Pic related is when I realized I was watching one of the best fantasy movies ever. Fucking exhilarating.
>>70074272
>Seriously? The protagonist learns he isn't the hero at all and everything he has done was for the worse?
While that is an interesting twist, the entire movie is just devoid of fun and whimsy.. It is, in a word, dull. Most of the running time focuses on character development, except the characters aren't remarkable and the world in which it takes place even less so, making the whole affair an exercise in patience. When the final battle comes around, it's more "thank god" than "hell yeah."
>Also, how has nobody mentioned Krull yet?
Now there's a classic, love that movie
I found Stardust to be enjoyable.
>>70075386
Yeah I don't know why this movie was so hated.
It's a pretty good film, and a pretty faithful adaptation of the book. Bookfags shouldn't be complaining, moviefags shouldn't be complaining, and everyone who loves supremely comfy films should love it.
But still, for some reason, it never caught on. Damn shame.
Krull is the ultimate, to be quite brutally honest.
>>70070467
For you
>>70075786
It really is a comfy film and Mark Strong and his bros were great.
>>70075386
>>70075786
This, books or not it was a fun adventure movie, i need more of these.
>>70069775
It's old but Dragonslayer is decent I still get chills every time the dragon finally shows
Mother fucking Willow.
>>70074594
It was directed by Ron Howard.
>>70076763
written and produced by George Lucas
I don't hate the film personally, but I do think it's quite a mess and most of the humor falls flat. Even so the special effects are great and Val Kilmer is excellent
>>70076736
Pleb-tier kids movie. Not even aimed at teens. Literally made for kids aged 6-10
if you want to fugg alexandrio daddario and don't mind dropping your iq a few points.
Percy jackson and the lighting thief is pretty decent 6.5/10 flick.
The 2nd movie was worse though. less daddario, more nigger goat blah....
>>70069844
that movie was weird as fuck at some points, prob because I knew very little about the story other than the snake tower part. The place where they had orgies and eat human stew all day especially creeped me the fuck out.
Other than that it had some solid violent action and moments that were metal as fuck.
>>70069775The Dark CrystalStill heartbroken at the cancellation of the sequel
>>70070269
I could listen to that man read the phone book...
