Seeing how GOT has nose-dived into the shittiest fanfiction, it made me wonder what /tv/ would consider in making a good fantasy for today's audiences.

I've been on an 80's binge lately and saw Excalibur, Willow, Ladyhawke, and Legend; all of which I've enjoyed a lot. So it got me thinking, what can we do and NOT do to create something that invokes the best in fantasy without resorting to cliches like ripping off LOTR or being a GOT clone?

The one thing I noticed in 80's fantasy and science fantasy flicks (like Krull for instance), there's a good deal of making the characters feel like they're part of a greater world. Their journey is just one scope of a multitude of other storylines throughout the world.

I enjoy my share of political back-biting and wheeling-dealing so you can elements of that, but I also want to treat sorcery and mystical creatures in a logical manner. Like sorcery is considered something like a taboo outside of folk tricks in the countryside because the nobility and royalty realize that magic can circumvent traditional lines of power. Mythical creatures are to be either exterminated as threats or harnessed as livestock for human greed.

And don't have everyone grimdark serious, but at the same time, don't make them do quips and other retarded shit. Just let them be human beings with realistic emotions and dialogue.

GOT had one of the most down-to-Earth scenes when TV Gendry berated Arya for wasting her 3 death wishes from Jaqen. He pointed out that she could've used them to kill Cersei, Joffrey, and/or Tywin instead of wasting them fruitlessly. That's something anyone with half a brain would do.

Don't make the characters do blatantly stupid shit just to advance the plot or make another character look good. You don't rob someone else of their individuality just to strengthen another's.

What are your worst cinema related stories?
Year ago I went to my first date with a girl and had to choose between taking her to suicide squad or sausage party. Wanting to be a special snowflake we went to sausage party. Needless to say the date was disaster, but at least she paid for her ticket so no money lost for me.
I was also on a blind date with friend, his gf, and her friend. It was the most awkward thing ever. I didnt say a single fucking word for the entire time because the bitch was cold to me since the moment she got off the bus and STILL she tried to be all cuddly with me in cinema. At least the movie was one of the best I have ever seen
