The 10 Greatest Battles in Fantasy Movies, Ranked

Comments

1. Amir: nothing against the lord of the rings crowd but epic battle scenes always feel like a cheap cop-out to me. where's the restraint?
2. Amir: suddenly nostalgic for epic fantasy scores
3. Mirage Nomad: finally someone ranking battles from actual iconic ones like Nausicaa's in Princess Mononoke over generic Lord of the Rings rehashes
4. Lena: never really thought about battle scenes that much but gotta say the Lord of the Rings sequence is still giving me chills
5. Yaraadeyemi: love how the Lord of the Rings trilogy always gets the nod, but gotta give props to Princess Mononoke's Ashitaka vs. Lady Eboshi showdown - Hayao Miy
6. Milan: agree on princess mononoke's fight between ashitaka and kokuten, though - the way it weaves together myth and reality still blows me away every time i watch
7. Mayakaurxo: i'd rather see more nuanced portrayals in fantasy battles, but i guess that's too much to ask some days
8. Lucas: i'd put princess mononoke vs the boar right after that epic ikonomides fight in gladiator on my list though
9. Talia: ugh what an embarrassing image choice - 'best battles' and they show a meme instead? 👀
