BUILDING YOUR BOOKSHELF- A Visual Collection

After reading over the post I recently did on influential books within the hobby I realized I was probably as influenced by film as by book and maybe more so. I had always been a bigger fan of Science Fiction than Fantasy and much of my mental imagery in gaming comes from movies.

Films like:

Jason and the Argonauts
DragonSlayer
Bakshi's Lord of the Rings, Wizards and Fire and Ice,
Fantastic Planet
Clash of the Titans
Excalibur
Conan the Barbarian
Heavy Metal (both film and magazine)
The Beast Master
The Dark Crystal

So feed the need, kick back relax and enjoy a Fantasy film when you have time. We don't always have time to read a novel but we can get our game snack on with a film :)
