Favorite Action/Adventure Film?

[Sgt_Markoff]

Without looking at the other replies in this thread, I'll rattle off a few of my favorites:

"Fantasy action adventures". Meh! Though its not a genre I ever give much thought to, nor ever dwell on overmuch. I dislike Indiana Jones, and I have a hard time coming up with very many titles, but here goes:

• The Long Ships
• The Thief of Baghdad
• The Adventures of Robin Hood
• Jason and the Argonauts
• Le Belle et la Bette
• Black Orpheus
• Orphee'
• Charlie and the Chocolate Factory
• Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea
• Journey to the Center of the Earth
• Journey to the Top of the World
• She
• The Wizard of Oz
• Gunga Din
• The Man Who Would Be King
• Time Bandits
• The Naked Prey
• Seven Faces of Doctor Lao
• Time After Time
• The Time Machine
• Chitty Chitty Bang Bang
• Hidden Fortress
• The Mark of Zorro
• The Court Jester
• The Seventh Voyage of Sinbad
• The Flame and the Arrow
• The Crimson Pirate
• Swashbuckler
• any Errol Flynn romp
• Seven Seas to Calais
• The Naked Jungle
• Secret of the Incas

From the list I posted just above --if I have to pick just one purely fantasy adventure --it would be Korda's 'Thief of Baghdad' even though I did not grow up with it. I'd be willing to name it the top all-time fantasy.

The others in the list can mostly be classed variously such as 'action adventure' or what-have-you. And therefore discounted. For instance, 'Robin Hood' is not a fantasy action adventure.
