Fantasy Movie Fight #4: Barbarella vs. Mad Max

Fight for the 41st Ranked Fantasy Movie Barbarella (1-0) vs. Mad Max (1-1) I think this is a classically interesting Moviefight battle. We’ve got a superior movie going up against a movie that fits within the genre far better. Barbarella is a BAD movie. Lets all agree that, minus it’s cult accumen, it’s really just [...]

Fantasy Movie Fight #3: Avatar vs. Highlander

New Entrant to the Fantasy Rankings! Fight for 28th Place Avatar (0-0) vs. Highlander (1-0) I’m torn on this fight. On the one hand, I’m terrifically tempted to vote for Avatar. The first reason is the over arching trend in society today that I feel is hating on Avatar. It’s so trendy to hate on [...]

Fantasy Movie Fight #1: Alice in Wonderland vs. LOTR: Fellowship of the Ring

Battle for #4th ranked Fantasy Movie: Ok, so i know that the fantasy movies are ALL out of order and for the longest time, that’s been my fault. I had this great idea that a movie, if it won an 1 on 1 fight, it deserved to be higher, regardless of of Movie Fight score. [...]

So… I was thinking… Ever been to the rankings pages on the site? The intention here, at the beginning of the site, was to have this grand tournaments, and as a result, we would have a very well thought out movie list. Problem is… It rarely worked out that way. I mean, in most cases [...]

Fantasy Fights: Day 4

The Purple Rose of Cairo: “This is a beloved movie brought to you by Woody Allen. Sure, the fantasy in this film is a little smaller in total than Excalibur, but there’s a certain degree to which, as long as the fantasy element is there, a great film outweighs the amount of fantasy. We can’t [...]

Fantasy Fights: Day 3

Hey buddies. I really like Fantasy Fights. I like discussing these because often they aren’t the greatest films. They aren’t anywhere near reaching the top of the Best Picture hump, but they are good at what they are intending to do. In addition, its got such great subsections: sci-fi, outer-space, superheroes, adventure. There is so [...]

Fantasy Movie Fights: Day 1

A Long time ago, in a website far far away…. I started The Movie Fight on a wing and a prayer, convincing my friends to stop by and vote on a myspace page that I had created. It was a lot of fun and to get things going, I generated a Fantasy Movie Tournament. The [...]
