What are some good series or movies like GOT in the fantasy genre?

Excalibur. It makes no fucking sense, but that’s okay because everything Boorman does is so beautiful to look at.

Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon. The ultimate wirework fantasy fight movie.

Because of the way you write “series or movies,” I’m going to assume that you mean TV series, as opposed to book series: which is a pity because I know far more good book series than TV series or movies.

The Neverending Story. A children’s movie, true, but one about the power of story to heal.

Star Wars. In fact, the entire original trilogy. Yes, it’s fantasy, it’s just set against a faux science fictional background.

Princess Mononoke. The last animated film on the list. Also, the last film on the list.

Pan’s Labyrinth. You want brutal? You got it.

Spirited Away. Yes, an animated film. It has more imagination in any given five minute period than most fantasy films have in their entire length.

The Princess Bride. The original “romantasy,” but it’s really, really good.

Why do people who aren't trans feel the need to put pronouns next to their name or picture? It seems so cringeworthy to me, to participate in that SJW paradigm of thought, like they are a spineless person who just goes along with the trends.

OK, here are a few TV series. None of them really resembles GoT. If you want to watch more of that, go watch House of the Dragon.

And I’m not sure what “like GoT” means; there is so much different stuff in GoT that I can’t really make that judgment easily. In truth, I don’t particularly care for the Game of Thrones tv series; I think HBO made it brutal and unnecessarily lascivious in ways that detracted from the story. Plus, I like a story where you know who to root for.

Labyrinth. A cult classic that became a just-plain-classic.

Good Omens. The first season is the funniest story about the Apocalypse ever told.

Willow. A pet project of George Lucas, a classic good-vs-evil story in a rich, interesting world with at least one morally ambiguous character (the delightful Madmartigan).

Like I said, a few. I don’t really watch much TV. All of those were good enough to keep me watching the whole series (at least, so far, in the case of those that haven’t ended yet).

Movies:

Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl. This is where the franchise started, and, if you can look at it with fresh eyes, you can see what it was like before the characters (and especially Captain Jack) became walking sterotypes of themselves: it was fun, exciting, and often funny.

Wizards and Warriors. A takeoff on the “Dungeons and Dragons” style fantasy movie before there was such a thing.

How do you perform a lap dance for your boyfriend or husband?

Being John Malkovich. The fantasy concept here is really weird. Don’t let that stop you.

Coraline. Yes, another animated film. There are a couple more still to come. Furthermore, a children’s animated film. Don’t let that stop you.

Monty Python and the Holy Grail. No, really.

I live in Massachusetts. Are there any resources here for people that are being harassed by voice to skull, etc.?

The Corpse Bride. From those wonderful people who gave you The Nightmare Before Christmas, this one is way weirder.

Wednesday. Yes, the girl from The Addams Family. She goes to boarding school and gets involved in some very dangerous stuff.

The Sandman. This is the most powerful fantasy TV I have ever seen. I cannot wait for season two, even though I’ve read the comics and pretty much know what is going to happen.

But I’ll soldier on as best I can. Here are some good fantasy movies (and a few tv series), some of which don’t really resemble GoT at all.

Grimm. Suppose there were fantasy monsters in the real world. And suppose that some people are born to fight them — no, don’t think Buffy (though what I’ve seen of that was actually pretty good); think of a family whose destiny, like it or not, is to see and know the monsters and deal with them. One way or another.

Beetlejuice. I simply cannot wait for Beetlejuice Beetlejuice to hit the theaters.
