Sigh. Mary Poppins is fantasy now, is it? :rolleyes: Get it right, MSN. It's a sodding musical. If Mary Poppins is fantasy, then so is West Side Story, The Sound of Music, and Oliver!

Oh, what's that? They're not? Then neither is freakin' Mary Poppins. :rolleyes:

Tangled and Hercules are not fantasy, because they're made by Disney. My list, my rules. :p

...aaaaaaaaaaaaaand once again they ignored Pratchett. Hogfather, The Colour of Magic, Going Postal, The Amazing Maurice. Not even Good Omens, for crying out loud.

Shame on you, MSN. Shame! :mad: :p

On the other hand, they completely ignored utter :poop: like The Watch and Rings of Power. ;)

Oops, sorry. I was taking lists like this seriously. Maybe I need more of this :coffee: :mrgreen:

I'd think that Mary Poppins actually does count as fantasy, along with the Disney ones. If you don't like that, I have some cheese to go with your whine. You can have a fantasy and have it be a musical. I watched Wicked not that long ago, it is possible to do so even without Disney.

Also, most of the Terry Pratchett adaptations you mentioned, with the exception of Maurice, are TV adaptations. "I am the very model of a modern major nitpicker..."

Bet you any money the Fate/Stay Night: Heaven's Feel trilogy isn't on that list...

Mary Poppins is fantasy because 1. she flies, 2. the handbag is bigger on the inside [decades before a certain blue box], 3. she sticks the gold paper stars to the sky. Etc.
