ferguson1 Posted April 6, 2022 Share Posted April 6, 2022 Best Fantasy? That’s got me all nostalgic thinking of Ray Harryhausen films and Jim Henson production’s. Some beauties in this category. The Thief of Bagdad (1940), Clash of the Titans, Jason and the Argonauts and numerous Sinbad films. Krull, Willow, Ladyhawke, Conan the Barbarian, The Dark Crystal, Labyrinth, The Time Bandits. More recently, the Harry Potter films, The Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit films. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil Silvers Posted April 6, 2022 Share Posted April 6, 2022 I'm going to give an honourable mention to a film not mentioned or probably will be but is as good as anything above, Goodbye Mr. Chips 1939 starring Robert Donat, an all time classic. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

theunderstudy Posted April 6, 2022 Share Posted April 6, 2022 I nearly had Dredd in my action one. Felt bad leaving it out. There are about 50 movies that deserve to be up in my list and didn't make it. Comedy shafted so many and so did action and thriller 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rjw63 Posted April 6, 2022 Share Posted April 6, 2022 Wouldn't know where to start All I can say is for comedy it would be Holy Grail or Groundhog Day. The Quiet Man also gets in my list no Idea what category. Musical would be Brigadoon. Crime/action obviously The Boondock Saints. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
