Is fantasy the only genre without a single masterpiece? And no, just because Poledouris made an awesome track, it does not mean that Conan is anywhere near a masterpiece. That fat retard Milius used the setting to shit on hippies.

Fantasy is genre where you can pull anything without logical need and worry about plothole because

>>215625349
Star Wars (the first one).
>but Star Wars is science fiction!
Wrong.
>>
>>215625782
Which makes it a good genre as long as you can be consistent with it.. Scifi on the other hand requires in depth explanations for most things because 'le magic' isn't good enough and almost everyone fucks it up.

>>215625782
fantasy lives and dies with its world building, each time you undermine your setting it makes your universe a little more hollow.
this is particularly apparent in tv shows and books that go on too long, where suddenly characters start teleporting around (GOT) because it's easier to write around, where characters start wearing regular clothes (looking at you harry potter)...

Frieren proves otherwise

well lotr is like everything a product of its era, it's very slow and has shit cgi, some questionable plot points too like the ghosts.
it's a classic for sure, but good luck getting kids these days to watch it.

the LOTR movies are extremely poorly directed, and the dialogue doesn't have the grandiose needed in a fantasy story
>>
>>215627383
This, and John Carter.
>>
>>215627500
how exactly are they 'poorly directed'? I think the only criticisms you could make is diverging from the source material, however this is largely to the benefit of the plot in the film format, and overreliance on CGI and action setpieces at times, but that doesn't detract from the excellent screenplay and memorable dialogue at all. Directing the trilogy AT ALL was a staggering achievement requiring far more effort, foresight and talent than the majority of films do.

>>215627594
other the the action and the establishing shots, they're almost completely just close-up shots, it's so bad that it even has shots of close-up shots where it zooms in to be even more close-up. it's the bare minimum, there's zero composition or blocking, nothing to make the scenes more fluid or interesting. just close-ups on the characters that are standing still and talking
that hurts any film but it's especially bad since this is a fucking high fantasy story

>used the setting to shit on hippies
I mean, that's based, and Milius was based, but it's true that Conan falls short of being a masterpiece
>>
>>215627864
I think one could argue that frequent forced perspective creating the need for such shots also motivates using them even more just for visual consistency.

Go ahead, name what you consider masterpieces of other genres.
You won't (can't) of course, you're only here to shit on things.
>>
>>215629498
Well sci fi has Alien, Blade Runner, Stalker, Solaris, 2001 etc. Even anime has stuff of incredible quality like Akira, Ghost in the Shell and Evangelion. Fantasy has... what?
