I’m now officially a subscriber to this topic!! 🙂 Unfortunately I don’t have enough time right now to read everyone’s answers… so later on those… I’m a fantasy writer (and some sci-fi/other speculative, but I started off writing with fantasy, because of Narnia and Middle Earth) – so please include me in your fantasy discussion. 🙂
My favorite would have to be royalty and then world-building. 🙂 Very similar to yours, I know… the entire medieval setting in most high fantasy just fascinates me.
That aside, least favorites include: The Chosen One (done in a way without any originality in it… and then over and over and over again); The Strong Female Character (plenty of those out there… they have no character development!! It’s like strong, brave females are popped out by the dozens a day in stories now :P)
And can I just say that I can’t think of one fantasy film (adaptation or original) that is truly amazing and out of the world? They could have done <span style=”text-decoration: underline;”>so much</span> more with Middle Earth and Narnia but didn’t.
MBTI: I’m an INTJ (I saw someone started mentioning this, so just FYI – because I’m obsessed with MBTI)
By the way, I have read two books in The Inheritance Cycle, and it’s quite good but not extraordinary. 🙂 Murtagh and Brom are great.
