Re: Fantasy movies with good effects that aren't LOTR or HP

(Anonymous) 2017-06-24 11:39 pm (UTC)(link)
I started to say something, and then realised I was having real trouble thinking of things that weren't from the 80s. A significant portion of my childhood was 80s fantasy films. I'm struggling to think of more modern ones, beyond obvious things like Stardust or Pan's Labyrinth, or more kiddy things that are probably kind of bad but that I enjoyed, like The Secret of Moonacre or Inkheart, or oddball things like The City of Lost Children, if you're in a 90s dieselpunk Roald Dahl sort of mood. Most of the others I can think of are fairytales. I actually kind of enjoyed Mirror Mirror, the comedy Snow White adaptation with Julia Roberts? I mean, again, probably bad, but I enjoyed it. Slightly more seriously, I also keep meaning to watch Blancanieves, the Spanish Snow White adaptation set in the 20s, because I've heard very good things about it, but I haven't gotten around to it yet.

If you wanted a miniseries instead, and like historical fantasy, the Jonathan Strange & Mr Norrell miniseries was pretty good too.
