Yes that truly is a classic. Kind of a Greek Mythology Fantasy type movie. Really good at its time.

Oh no I have seen that one to. I just did a quick list of choices, but definetly that is a great movie. That was with Richard Gere and Sean Connery right?

No, that one is the one that was done in the seventies, it has Helen Murien in it.

The one with Richard Gere is called First Knight, fairly good, but there are better King Arthur Movies.

Actually that one that came out with Clive Owen as Arthur, I think that is one of the best.

Ah yes now I have the new King Arthur one with Clive Owen. That is great movie to watch.

Excalibur I will have to check out. I could have sworn I seen it, but I will double check. Thanks for adding this movie to the list.

Another great movie I enjoyed - more historical then fantasy though is Kingdom of Heaven with Orlando Bloom.

Excalibur is a must see for any fantasy movie fan.

Other recommendations...

The Hobbit (animated)
Dragon Slayer
Wizards (animated)
Red Sonja
The Neverending Story
300 (more of a historical epic)

I know I'm forgetting some, but that's all I can think of for now.

I have Red Sonya. It was alright.

The hobbit was a really fun cartoon to watch and all of its continuations with it. You can actually watch those on youtube for free.

Wizards I can only get in japanese to watch on youtube with english subtitles.

300 was really good.

Actually I heard that in 2010 or 2011 The Hobbit will be a movie to watch.

Stardust was fun to watch. Alot of humor in that one and Robert Dinero was playing a gay guy. So unlike his characters he usually plays. :smile:
