Fantasy DVD collection
Labyrinth [DVD] [1986]Labyrinth [DVD] [1986]
Buy used from: £2.48
The greatest of all fantasy films. Taught me everything I know about life, including that David Bowie likes to steal babies and wear spandex.
The Lord of the Rings (Animated Version) [DVD] [1978]The Lord of the Rings (Animated Version) [DVD] [1978]
Buy new: £2.98 / Used from: £0.64
The other fantasy film I've watched far too many times for my own good. I like it more than the live action ones... but hey, I'm strange.
The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring (Two Disc Theatrical Edition) [DVD] [2001]The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring (Two Disc Theatrical Edition) [DVD] [2001]
Buy new: £4.98 / Used from: £0.01
And the best of the new films, just in case you didn't realise they exist. Two towers is too stolid and boring; ROTK is warhammer meets barbie's swan lake.
Dark Crystal [DVD] [1982]Dark Crystal [DVD] [1982]
Buy used from: £0.85
The other great Henson film. Less fun than Labyrinth, but visually stunning.
The Fantasia Collection [DVD] [2000]The Fantasia Collection [DVD] [2000]
Buy used from: £85.50
And onto Disney. Both Fantasias are absolutely stunning; the 'must watch' bits being bald mountain and firebird.

The Sword In The Stone [DVD] [1963]The Sword In The Stone [DVD] [1963]
Buy new: £7.78 / Used from: £3.87
Lastly an old favourite. I'd have added many others, but there's just no room for them all.
The Neverending Story [DVD] [1985] [Region 1] [US Import] [NTSC]The Neverending Story [DVD] [1985] [Region 1] [US Import] [NTSC]

Shame it's region one. Another children's classic.
Return To Oz [DVD] [1985]Return To Oz [DVD] [1985]

A brilliantly gothic sequel to a classic musical.
Shrek - Special Edition [DVD] [2001]Shrek - Special Edition [DVD] [2001]

Very silly. Well worth it.
The Chronicles Of Narnia [DVD] [1988]The Chronicles Of Narnia [DVD] [1988] by C. S. Lewis

A good - if very BBC - adaptation.

Same as above.

Burton's only 'proper' fantasy. Nice.
Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl [DVD] [2003]Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl [DVD] [2003]
Buy used from: £0.01
Arrr! The only movie based on a ride worth watching. And how many Disney films are in this list?
Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets (Two Disc Widescreen Edition) [DVD] [2002]Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets (Two Disc Widescreen Edition) [DVD] [2002]
Buy new: £25.39 / Used from: £1.50
Liked this. Hope they keep improving at this rate! (And anyone who can make the fifth book worth watching deserves an Oscar).
Big Trouble in Little China -- two-disc Special Edition [DVD] [1986]Big Trouble in Little China -- two-disc Special Edition [DVD] [1986]
Buy used from: £2.99
Who'd have thought there's be beholders living under chinatown?
Princess Mononoke [DVD] [2001]Princess Mononoke [DVD] [2001]
Buy used from: £9.91
A beautiful piece of japanese animation in a purely fantasy world.
Star Wars Trilogy (Episodes IV-VI) [DVD] [1977]Star Wars Trilogy (Episodes IV-VI) [DVD] [1977]
Buy used from: £10.20
And if telling you how bad the LOTR trilogy was made you angry, how about saying the only reasons for this are the whole of ANH and Jabba in ROTJ?
The Princess Bride [DVD] [1987]The Princess Bride [DVD] [1987]
Buy used from: £10.99
Saw this for the first time the other day. A brilliantly clever, satirical and most of all fun film.
