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

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.

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.

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.

Let’s say you have 3 separate manuscripts and send 1 of them to 12 different agents (4 read same copy). Now let’s say 2 agents each liked separate manuscripts and want to move forward. What would you do as far as transparency and negotiation?

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

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

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

I saw a post on X which says "control your lust & you'll understand how boring 90% of women are." What do you think about it? Do you agree or disagree? Why?

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

Monty Python and the Holy Grail. No, really.

Movies:

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.

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

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

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

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.

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).

What if the girl says that drama about you dating here? Is that a bad sign?

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

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

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

What are the gifts you got when you cleared JEE ?

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

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

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.

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).

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.

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.

What are the easy romantic novels to read to read for beginners?

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.

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

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