Did you forget "Alien", or just didn't like it?


Yeah, I've seen "Rock 'n' Rule" ("my name is Mok, thanks alot..."),
pretty good film. Used to own it. But not as good as, say, "Heavy
Metal".


"The Hobbit" cartoon? Excellent film that was!


Good list! Glad you also liked "Nausicaa", depsite what others say
about how cut down it was. Also "Fist of the North Star"!

Also, good to NOT see "Terminator 3" there!


But go see, or re-watch, "Alien" and "Heavy Metal".

Well Alien was good but i always thought Aliens is better, i'm also glad you love The Hobbit and Rock and Rule, if you love those, i recommend " The Secret of NIMH" and " The Last Unicorn" ( Another great animated fantasy from the makers of Hobbit and Thundercats Rankin Bass), seen those as well?

No, I've never seen "Last Unicorn", though I have heard
plenty of good things about it.


I have seen "the Secret of N.I.M.H.", great cartoon.
Scary at moments, especially with the old rat with the
glowing eyes.

But as far as animal animations, my heart forever belongs
to "Watership Down" and "Dumbo".


I've seen most on your list, exect the "Lord of the Rings"
movies, "The Dark Crystal" (the David Bowie movie?),
"Startship Troopers", Men in Black", the "Harry Potter"
films, "Dark City", "Princess Monoke", "Crouching Tiger
Hidden Dragon", and "The Flight of the Dragons" (which
I don't don't even remember).


Did you ever see "Neverending Story" or "Dragonslayer"?
These are two excellent fantasy movies!

No no, Dark Crystal is not David Bowie that's Labyrinth, The Dark Crystal is different! TDC ( Dark Crystal for short) is the one with the elf-like beings and it's done by Jim Henson.

Well maybe you should definitely rent or get the Last Unicorn on DVD! it's an excellent animated fantasy that is sad, humorous and a feel good movie with the voices of Christopher Lee, Jeff Bridges, Alan Arkin, Mia Farrow and Angela Lansbury! it's also got a sexy toon chick to turn any guy on, it's a must have for fantasy fans and there's going to be a live-action movie coming out next year.

The only ones I haven't seen are Last Unicorn, Secret of Nimh, 2001: A Space Odyssey, Stargate (though I read the book), The Flight of Dragons, Aliens (have no interest, I don't know why) The Thinig, Rock and Rule, Ghost in the Shell, The Running Man, Dark City, Fist of the North Star, and Nauiscaa: Valley of the Wind. Most of these I do want to see though. I'm suprised you didn't mentioned Legend or Labyrinth. I love them both and Legend made me fall in love with Mia Sara.

Some of those are must see movies that i mentioned! Well i thought Legend was alright but could have been better and i thought Labyrinth was ok but i'm no Bowie fan ( Although i did liked him in The Hunger) but i think The Dark Crystal was better.
