Best Fantasy Myth World Movies
In an attempt to inform train about Crom and also to delve into an escapist reality which I need right now I give you a few of the best fantasy movies, or at least movies i really got caught up in as a kid. If it has swords, a wizard, some barely clothed girls, or talking mythical animals you are on the right track.
1. Krull: you have this crazy dangerous power boomerang with knives!?!?! how can that not get a kid stoked!
2. Legend: Tom Cruise and his blackmagic, nuff said.
3. Conan the F'in Barbarian: First Sumeria is ruled now California.
4. The Neverending Story: and it actually has a luck dragon.
5. Willow: it was the only time you actually thought Val Kilmer was somebody.
6. Hook: i'm throwing this in just because, i liked it. Ruffiooooooh!!! Rufioohhh!!!
7. Clash of the Titans: because it has a Kraken.

Does The Dark Crystal count even though it was a movie with puppets?
Clash of the Titans is so good it should've been mine...can I nominate The West Wing?...but in the context of this argument I nominate...Time Bandits because Gilliam rocks!
If The Neverending Story is on the list, then throw The Dark Crystal has to be included. I agree, Jordan. Good call.
Dark Crystal? I don't even remember that.
Jim Henson film for 1982
Another planet, another time. 1000 years ago the Dark Crystal was damaged by one of the Urskeks and an age of chaos began. Now the time of the great conjunction of the three suns is near. If the crystal is not healed now the control of the evil Skekses will last forever. Jen the last of the Gelfings nearly exterminated by monsters controlled by the Skekses starts his dangerous journey to find the missing shard of the crystal. Will he be able to heal the crystal and restore order on the planet?
hmmm... i don't know if a part of my childhood was missed or not. I was 2 years old when that came out, and my family was stuck on beta for 5 years after that.
All I remember is the Skekses scared the bejesus out of me.
there's a generation of men that are forever scarred by the Skekes
you've peaked my interest and a google on "skekes" reveals The Power of the Dark Crystal Sequel in the works for 2008.
