Before the "Lord of the Rings" trilogy came to dominate the scene there were other "fantasy" films. Of the listed pre-LOTR trilogy films which is your favorite, why? Any unlisted favorites?

I see that Highlander is winning hands-down. But of course, because "In the end, there can be only one."

I had no idea, I'm so sorry to hear that. Were you close friends?


Not really, we met when he was a guest at a couple of Robin of Sherwood conventions . He was really very nice, totally the opposite of most of the characters he played. I was sort of hung up on him, , which is unusual for me.

I have to vote for 'Excalibur' as well. I think Nicol Williamson was one of the best actors to play Merlin.

My favorite character was Mordred. Robert Addie was such fun to watch! John Boorman was very impressed with Robert's horsemanship, and said so on the Region 1 DVD's audio commentary.

Sgt. Munroe...I loved Excaliber as well, especially Merlin's line: "A dream to some, A NIGHTMARE TO OTHERS!!!!"

Another favorite of mine would be "Brazil"! Has anyone else seen it? Terry Gilliam movie are wonderful!
I believe he also did "Time Bandits"!

-Caitlin

Those are both great movies, I also loved all of the Monty Python stuff he did as well as "Twelve Monkeys".

Don't know what I was thinking I would also have to include "Baron Munchausen"! That was a real treat! Robin Williams was simply a hoot! Another favorite of mine would be "Brazil"! Has anyone else seen it? Terry Gilliam movie are wonderful!

"7th Voyage of Sinbad"! Excellent effects for its day ... ah ... CLAYMATION! As a kid, I just loved that Cyclops!

Since you didn't list 'Excalibur', I will have to pick my #2 choice, 'Dragonslayer'. A very good tale of honor, courage and 'stepping-up' to do the right thing.


Your Most Humble Servant,

I haven't seen most of these movies, but I do remember "Clash of the Titans" and I liked it very much, so that would be my pick.

Love,
Kay
