8 High Fantasy Movies to Put You in the Mood for D&D
- Thread starter ffronw
- Start date
Good list, but the most quoted movies at our table are "The Gamers" movies, "Astropia" and the "JourneyQuest" Series. ;-)
Many more could be included on this list. Props for remembering Dragonslayer though, and I occasionally had the Ladyhawke fantasy disco soundtrack in the background of my campaigns

Early 80s was a pretty damn good time to grow up geeky!

Everyone loves to champion those 80's fantasies, but I honestly found a whole lot of them super super cheesy and barely watchable. Especially Beastmaster with the little kid in the movie dressed in nothing but a loin cloth. What the actual fuck? Was a pedo involved in making this movie?
If this IS the most quoted movie at your D&D table, I'm not sure I want to play in your game. The really terrible thing about Monty Python is that it's quoted AD NAUSEAM. It's been 40 years now, guys. It's time to freaking move on already. It's like if "The Cake is a lie." was quoted for 40 years and people still found it funny.
