Top 10 Fantasy

The line between sci-fi and fantasy is not thin as many claim. It is wide and gray. For example, where do superhero movies fit? (I chose to include them in sci-fi.) Orson Scott Card classifies both into the larger genre of "Speculative Fiction." I need to add to this list when I have some time to think more about it.

  1. The Lord of the Rings
  2. Harry Potter
  3. Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon
  4. The Chronicles of Narnia
  5. Willow
