I second this!!! One of my favorite shows I've ever seen.

As for movies

Legend was interesting.
Princess Bride is great.
Logan's Run is a classic.
I thought Final Fantasy:Spirits Within was good if you can tolerate a rather open ending.
Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon is beautiful and could be seen as Eastern Fantasy.
Hellboy is a fun pulp fantasy.

Star Wars is good, interested to see the last one, hopefully it will be good.

I never like Star Wars too much, it seemed a little out-dated when I saw the originals, and the new ones are very visually interesting but not particularly grabbing. I don't know much about Episode three but I do no how it's going to end. Anyone take any guesses?

I liked the Matrix Trilogy and the Animatrix. I consider it fantasy as well as sci-fi. It opened up a lot of philosophical questions, which I now research. The puddle is very deep.

Also, I love watching good, un-tampered-with Anime. Coming from Japan is some of the best modern fantasy available. The genre is diverse and you can find any type of story you could ever want. This is also a very deep puddle.

Firefly fans...yes, me too!
The best thing on tv or dvd for years. Looking forward to the film?

Also a fan of Star Wars, Star Trek, Farscape, Babylon 5 and most of the comic book films that have been made over the last few years.

Ah, yes, the Firfefly movie coming out in September. That's going to be great! Maybe Fox will see the error of its ways and launch the TV series again....

Anyone sensitive to spoilers: Don't read this! Any guesses on the end of Episode 3 of Star Wars? *shrug* Vader's there. But because of that and "always two there are," you know Dooku's going to die, and my main worry is how. Will it be an awesome lightsaber duel, or will he be poisoned in the first five minutes of the film?

Yee, more votes for Willow and Princess Bride! Oo, Tenth Kingdom; it was a mini-series on a long while ago. Has anyone mentioned Ever After?

Sam L Jackson says it will be an awsome death - I cant wait!

I cant wait for the Narnia movie:
Narnia

The two newest Star Wars movies were pretty terrible, but the third one looks like it's going to be awesome. Finally, Darth Vader!
Also, can't wait for the Narnia movies, too bad it won't be ready until about Dec. of this year.

E_d! you're a Treky! I love Star Trek too. I also like the Princess Bride, and the Pirates of the Carribean.
