The Milk River Madman has chosen Best Fantasy Movies as this week’s theme.
Now, I could have gone with my beloved Lord of The Rings, Terminator or Total Recall but, thinking back to the dim and distant past, I recalled another film which had such an effect on my imagination that I would watch it whenever it was on television.
The original Jason and the Argonauts was full of state of the art special effects back then, although to today’s viewer, they’re pretty lame and you can easily see the joins. However, at the time, children like me were enthralled by the depiction of such monsters.
And I’m hoping that this youtube playlist will include Groundhog Day because, as fantasies go, it’s not too shoddy either :)
Every week, a whole group of us reveal our favourite movies on a theme, and now there’s a new social media site that allows you to share all your favourite things, as well as search out your friends’ faves so you can surprise them with a meal or gift that really hits the spot. FAVsmile
Good choice Joanna!
Happy MCW!

I was curious as to what “fantasy” movie you would come up with (because I certainly thought about some XXX ones) but Jason and the Argonauts is a great choice. I remember this as a kid and I thought the skeleton army and the cyclops eating one of the guys was the coolest thing. I think there’s something wrong with me.
Happy MCW!
