Ozzy Posted June 8, 2020 Share Posted June 8, 2020 Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory Valerie and Her Week of Wonders Willy Wonka should get 100% of the vote here, no reason not to and nothing else comes close. PS this is the real Willy Wonka, the remake to me was crap compared to this classic. Included Valerie and Her Week of Wonders just because, I gave it two out of five stars, has some dirty parts to it that honestly ruin the film completely, but visually has some really standout parts and artistically it is freaking awesome at times. Too bad the story is absolute crap and it is just a bunch of random stuff it seems that does not ultimately come together at all in the end. Beautiful movie at times but too much trash in it to be considered memorable in any regard, but fits the category. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel Posted June 8, 2020 Share Posted June 8, 2020 Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory Monty Python and the Holy Grail Disney's Robin Hood (aka the second best Disney movie of all time) The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh I'll stick to four for now, in case there are some others I missed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love that Disney Robin Hood movie, it is an amazing animated film, but if The Little Mermaid cannot get in, or Beauty and the Beast, this should not either regardless of how great it is. Monty Python and the Holy Grail is a comedy only to me, no reason to say it is fantasy regardless of what IMDb. If that is a fantasy then what so is Robin Hood Men in Tights?

That's as fantasy as it gets, unless you think fantasy can't also be comedy, full stop. I guess we need to retroactively unnominate Ghostbusters, Gremlins, and Beetlejuice. And sure, Men in Tights counts too. Why not? And Little Mermaid is not on par with Robin Hood. Beauty and the Beast, eh, it's closer. But nah. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beauty and the Beast, eh, it's closer. But nah. Monty Python and the Holy Grail is at the core a comedy so it stays there to me, what 90% of it is comedy and sure 10% is the mythology or whatever but really it is just a different source jokes. Ghostbusters I did not nominate but sure might win this out of default, I view it as a comedy really, Gremlins is a crappy horror movie, Beetlejuice is the same but is more a goth comedy really. The Little Mermaid is a superior animated film to Robin Hood, same with Beauty at the Beast but Robin Hood is arguably top 5 no question. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jetsfan4life51 Posted June 9, 2020 Share Posted June 9, 2020 I'll probably end up voting Wonka but gotta give Robinhood a nod! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
