Fantasy is a genre of fiction that uses aspects such as mythical creatures, magic, or alternate physics to deliver a story in which the rules of reality do not apply, allowing for more creative freedom and more versatile stories. It tends to go hand-in-hand with other genres, too, with many different films twisting the typical conventions of fantasy and incorporating them into whatever story they want to tell. Star Wars, for example, is a near-perfect blend of fantasy and sci-fi, while The Lord of the Rings is the embodiment of epic fantasy.
