The 5 best fantasy movies of all times

 I love fantasy movies. In a very particular way, even superheroe movies (everybody knows that Tomas Elias Gonzalez Benitez is a big marvel fan) can be considered as Fantasy Movies. This is why I've decided to make a list of a the best fantasy movies of all times. This is not a personal opinion (I have realised, as I made my research, that I dont agree with most of the "expert opinions", but here it goes. 

The best fantasy movies

1. The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring (2001)

This film, the first in the epic Lord of the Rings trilogy, directed by Peter Jackson, is widely regarded as a masterpiece of modern cinema. It features an ensemble cast, breathtaking visuals, and an unforgettable story that transports viewers to the magical world of Middle-earth.

2. The Wizard of Oz (1939) 

This classic film, directed by Victor Fleming, is a timeless favorite that has enchanted audiences for generations. It tells the story of Dorothy, a young girl who is transported to the magical land of Oz, where she meets a cast of unforgettable characters and embarks on a quest to find her way home.

3. The Princess Bride (1987)

This beloved film, directed by Rob Reiner, is a modern-day fairy tale that combines romance, adventure, and humor in a way that has captured the hearts of audiences around the world. It tells the story of a young woman named Buttercup, who is kidnapped by a dashing pirate named Westley and embarks on a journey to rescue her true love.

4. Pan's Labyrinth (2006)

This visually stunning film, directed by Guillermo del Toro, is a dark and haunting tale that explores the horrors of war and the power of imagination. Set in Francoist Spain, it tells the story of a young girl named Ofelia, who discovers a labyrinth in the woods and is drawn into a dark and magical world.

This charming film, directed by Wolfgang Petersen, is a beloved favorite of 80s kids and adults alike. It tells the story of a young boy named Bastian, who discovers a magical book that transports him to the fantasy world of Fantasia, where he embarks on a quest to save the land from a dark force known as the Nothing.

The Lord Of The Rings: a classic on fantasy

The Lord of the Rings is a film trilogy directed by Peter Jackson, based on the fantasy novels written by J.R.R. Tolkien. The three films in the series are The Fellowship of the Ring (2001), The Two Towers (2002), and The Return of the King (2003). In a direct competition with the Harry Potter saga, it became an instant classic in cinema, and Peter Jackson rose as one of the best directors. The Return of the King even won an Oscar. The extended versions (I've seen them all) were also launched and released on cinema.  Later, a trilogy about the hobbit was launched, with a similar success. And more recently, a new series, The Rings of Power, continued the legacy of The Lord of the Rings.  What is The Lord Of The Ring about?
