Best Non-Mizahar Fantasy Story!(Books, Movies, Games, ect.)

Ok. This is simple enough. What is your favorite fantasy story? (Outside of Mizahar) It can be anywhere from books like Lord of The Rings or Harry Potter to Movies like The Dark Crystal or Star Wars to Games like Legend of Zelda to WoW. That's right... Thats right. There will be several categories, such as movies, television series, books, and games, and each one will have a winner in the end. There is too much possible content to start a pole yet, but the most popular choices will be on a pole later on to find out the Mizahar's popular vote Best Fantasy story!

My Thoughts-
Best Fantasy Book: Red Wall
Reason: I love cute little creatures.... especially when they have swords and bows!

Best Fantasy TV Series: Legend of The Seeker
Reason: Captivating story, good actors, twists and turns, only lasted 2 seasons so the it wasn't driven off a cliff, and two words: Mord Sith.... Mmmmm :>

Best Fantasy Movie: The Gamers 2: Dorkness Rising.
Reason: I think that counts.... It has a decent fantasy story, and in my opinion is the funniest movie I have ever seen.

More to come.
