In joyous celebration of Akira Kurosawa’s King Lear re-imagining, Ran, re-releasing in select US and Canadian theaters for its 40th anniversary, this week’s Showdown is straight-up Shakespearean.

The sixteenth-annual TCM Classic Film Festival just kicked off in Hollywood, and this year’s theme is “Grand Illusions: Fantastic Worlds on Film”. For this week’s Showdown, create a list of your ten favorite sci-fi and/or fantasy films released a long time ago in a galaxy not-so far away—i.e. during or before 1980, the debut year of TCM Fest’s opening-night film, The Empire Strikes Back. Harken back to a land that time forgot, where effects were practical, green screens weren’t yet popularized and dancing penguins were hand-drawn rather than CGI… But hey, some things never change: King Kong and Godzilla were still goin’ at it. (Pro tip: browse films by selecting the ‘fantasy’ or ‘science fiction’ genres—or both—then filter by decade. Here’s a web example that finds films tagged with both genres, and here are some lists by Jeannie and Peter.)

2. Star Wars
3. Monty Python and the Holy Grail

As Sacramento and The Ballad of Wallis Island release in the cool world of theaters, this Showdown is all about location, location, location. If you 🎹 wanna be a part of it 🎹, make your own atlas by listing your ten favorite films named after a landmark, a neighborhood, a city, a state, a country, even a continent. One rule: it must be a specific place. This means no No Country for Old Men, no Nomadland, no North by Northwest. Also, while there are scores of stories titled after spots in filmmaking hubs like Los Angeles and New York, we encourage you to go more global! If you need a road map, explore these lists by Energetic_nova, HDorrittie and Logan (though keep in mind that not everything in these lists are eligible—looking at you, Dune).

This Showdown, we’re lilting down the red (carpet) road of the EE BAFTA nominees for Outstanding Debut by a British (or Irish!) Writer, Director or Producer. Since 2010, this particular award has helped hungering filmmakers shake off the imposter syndrome as they shoot for the moon and take the layer cake (the history of the award is detailed by BAFTA here). Because the selection pool is limited to these 131 films, you can take control by listing fewer than the usual ten if you wish—though those ing their UK and Irish cinema exams may well reach that boiling point. Good luck to you, Leo Grande (and Mr. Banks, Ned Devine, Billy Elliot, Saint Maud, Ray & Liz plus many more with all the gifts).

Check out all the nominees for the 2025 edition of the EE BAFTA Film Awards and see who wins this year by tuning into BBC One and iPlayer at 7pm (GMT) on Sunday, February 16.
