anyone fond of the genre?
i know it's a mainstream kind of genre but i like it a lot
reccomend me old/new mainstream/obscure mythological movies pls
no matter which story is being told: greek, japanese.. the important is that is has to be old, and fascinating
also cartoons will do, but not the cute ones pls

dunno mate it's not really mythological, moar like epic, but i recommend smoking a nice spliff and watching Kurosawa's RAN, it's basically Shakespeare's King Lear with trippy Samurais,

These aren't really mythos but good movies,
- Ip Man (or Yip Man) - Battle Royale - Black Knight (comedy with Martin Lawrence)
