We all like castles and what not... and I think we all like castle movies and fantasy...
So I'd like to ask, 1 - What is your favorite Castle/Fantasy movie? (EX: LOTR, Willow, etc) 2 - And what is your favorite Castle/Fantasy cartoon? (EX: Flight of Dragons, Last Unicorn) I'll tell mine later... gotta go study...  -------------------- |

Hard question... especially since I´m a fan of asian stuff but I´ll try to pick something. I don´t know of a good cartoon though...
So I think my favourite Castle/Fantasy movie would be: the Mists of Avalon. -------------------- "All disasters stem from us. Why is there war? Perhaps because now and then I might be inclined to snap at my neighbour. Because I and my neighbour and everyone else do not have enough love. Yet we could fight war and all its excrescences by releasing, each day, the love that is shackled inside us, and giving it a chance to live."

Well, I have always been a BIG fan of Arthurian stories. But not the classical kliché horribly inaccurate ones with chivalry, noble christianity etc
I like the more mythical and "pagan" stories such as the books by Mary Stewart. -------------------- "All disasters stem from us. Why is there war?

Lord Of The Rings. Yep that is my favorite. That is why my nickname here is Legolas.

1. Gladiator- its precastle but I else I would say Lotr, except the last one which I still havent seen.
2. You said movie, so no series here. Princess Mononoke (anime- you guessed it) if you mean european medieaval I must say Sleeping Beauty (disney) the lil evil beastmen are inspiring. I like the vulturemen the most. Its been 10 years since I saw it though. Maedhros- agreed, Paganism>Catholic Dogma -------------------- Herpus es Derpus

I'm not sure I know what your talking about... since it's been a long time since I saw it as well (and then it was in German  ). I don't remember any beastmen... I'll have to look that up and check it out... maybe a source of inspiration for me as well.EDIT>> Although I did mean European Castle, I do agree that Princess Monoke is very cool indeed. -------------------- |

My favorite movie would have to be Braveheart or Gladiator.
As to my favorite cartoon... it would have to be Kenshin. Googlize it. --------------------   |

*Googlized*  While I must confess that I watch very little anime, I do think it's cool and interesting to see how it mixes with LEGO, and especially castle. One example that quickly comes to mind is this non-kenshin-like shot from The Hordesman's story... Anyway, very cool, and very interesting to see all of your preferences so far ~ -------------------- |
