32. In fact, I did forget Willow. Shame on me!
We can go round and round about LOTR, or we can just reread our thread from two weeks ago...

But Willow was surprisingly good, even if it was unfairly criticized as "derivative." Certainly it was the best live action fantasy film to date, and it stands up reasonably well, even if some of the effects are cheesy. It had the most original dragon seen up to that time, and any film with Billy Barty is cool. Well, except Legend.

Heck, IIRC, Willow even includes the first use of "morphing" in a cinema release.
