Ok, I have watched 1971 Willy Wonka way too many times, now. What else do you suggest as escapist fantasy without unbearably referential tones? I have been thinking about Wallace and Gromit, although I would prefer something with enough dialogue or music that I don't have to focus on watching it per se.

    Up. The Last Waltz. The Rum Diaries. I Ain't in it For My Health. Flight 666 ( if you're into the metal thing).

    Mel Brooks is good. Spinal Tap is awesome. I tried to do Princess Bride, which I used to love, and for some reason I just couldn't do it. Haha, The Pants, lol.

    I have to look some of those up Michael Steeves, I don't think I know all the ones you mentioned.

    Singin' in the Rain is always my go-to for uplifting anti-depressant watching. It's not fantasy per se, but... well, come on, it is totally fantasy.

    If you're in the mood for W&G, try Curse of the Were-Rabbit.

Yes, this has gone on before. No, it isn't new. But don't try to tell me that people thinking it's ok to do this has nothing whatsoever to do with the messaging and behavior of public figures and leaders. Looking at you, Fox News and Trump and his enablers.
