Fantasy movies of the sword and sorcery variety don't always succeed in the theaters-- a rare exception for Lord of the Rings though. But what other fantasy movie had great success?

Dungeons and Dragons? Um... No.
Willow? Uh... maybe.
Conan adventures. Sure.

I want to scream because I just discovered that Elric might be made into a movie. I read the Elric Saga by Michael Moorcock when I was in high school. I love Elric. I always dreamed that maybe it would be a movie-- or better yet-- animation because the parallel universe is too complex for it to be realized in real settings. Yoshitaka Amano's Elric portraits are beautiful enough to make me think that Elric was made for animation.

Instead, I find this, comedian brothers possibly creating the fantasy world of Elric and Melnibone. I shall commence praying now...
