This video, linked below, was uploaded by CineFix and is hosted by Tom Fonss. It goes through the top ten best fantasy films of the 80's.

Spoilers Ahead!

The choices are very good, and I wouldn't have chosen differently, honestly.  He had the two I thought would be at the top, Excalibur, and The Princess Bride.  Since I'm pretty young myself, the two that I appreciated being on the list were The Neverending Story, and The Labyrinth.  I remember watching them when I was a kid and I would certainly recommend them.

The video is very entertaining, very funny.  I laughed quite a bit with all of the jokes, especially the bit with The Neverending Story.  The bit using "Inconceivable" was also very witty.  This video is not a simple list, it draws the viewer in with comedy, which can get them to actually watch the movies its talking about.  I found myself wanting it to keep going, I almost didn't want to get to number one so that I could keep laughing.

This video is very accessible to older viewers, who were alive in the 80's.  It doesn't go in depth into the movies, instead showing the names and then joking about them.  For younger audiences, people who weren't alive in the 80's, it would be more effective to talk about all of the films like he did with The Princess Bride and Conan the Barbarian.  He can keep it funny while still actually describing things that are present within in the movie.

Overall, a very good video, giving the names of a good number of, as it says in the title of the video, cheesy, but awesome 80's fantasy films. Check out more awesome movies stuff from Cinefix: Cinefix's Youtube Page
