2. There are a few that are a lot of fun but conspicuously absent
Dragonslayer (love this movie)
Labyrinth (with a young but still beautiful Jennifer Connelly).

There's others that I liked, the names just aren't coming to me right now.

7. Gah! Can't believe I forgot Dragonslayer!!
I agree, a very good serious fantasy film.

Labyrinth was fun too, and I love David Bowie and Jennifer Connelly.

3. fantasy movie
The LOTR trilogy is the best fantasy movie (rent or buy the extended version) while Legend is undoubtedly the worst.

8. I also forgot Excalibur
Which would rank in the top 4 to be sure for me.

11. Dragonslayer is great, and should have been on the list
however, Jackson's Trilogy finally showed that a major epic fantasy novel could be done beautifully on film.

I have a list of books I would like to see Peter Jackson tackle!
