Ερώτημα πρώτο αν συμφωνείτε με την σειρά και αν θεωρείτε ότι "αδικήθηκαν" κάποιες ταινίες που δεν βρίσκονται στην λίστα. Ερώτημα δεύτερο ποιος heavy metal δίσκος (θεωρείτε ότι) θα ταίριαζε ως soundtrack (και σε ποια ταινία);

Marvelous Videos: «The sword and sorcery genre has been a popular staple in the literary world. Fans all over the world have grown up reading some fascinating classics. However, when it came to movie adaptations, the success rate has not been the same.

There have been some massive hits like Conan the Barbarian and Lord of the Rings trilogy, but there have been many others that failed to set the cash boxes jingling. Some of these commercial failures later went on to be regarded as cult classics, and people started appreciating them many years after their release.

Overall, it has to be said that the genre has often been overlooked for more glamorous sci-fi content, but if explored properly, you will find some jewels in this genre. Broadly speaking, the sword and sorcery genre is a subgenre of fantasy, and you have some key elements that make them stand out.

For instance, you would have brave sword-wielding warriors, elements of magic, supernatural entities, and often, a fight between good and evil. In this video, we have compiled a list of some of the best sword and sorcery flicks that will certainly be worth your time!»
