Dragonslayer as well. That SOB dragon still holds up today.
Story is very good.

Excalibur has a little too much Wagner/Orff. Need to layoff the "Carmina Burana".

Best Cast Ever. Feel bad for Nicol Williamson(Merlin).

Next time I saw him was in 1997's SPAWN as Cogliostro. He did not deserve that!

In a word. No.

Hell, back then Carmina Burana hadn't been abused to death. It was awesome in this movie.

Speaking of which, and a big sidetrack, I loved HBO's animated version of Spawn:
