The Adventures of Baron Munchausen/YMMV


 * Adaptation Displacement: This is far from the first work about the outlandish tales of Baron Munchausen. The original stories were published in the late 18th century, and the first film based on his tales was made in 1911, with several other versions filmed throughout the 20th century. A German film made in 1943 was particularly similar to Gilliam's version visually, to the point that a legal disclaimer had to be included in the 1988 picture. This is the best-known version for modern (Western) audiences, however.
 * Crowning Moment of Awesome: When
 * Nightmare Fuel: If you were a kid when you first saw this movie, the Grim Reaper scared the pants off of you.
 * Spiritual Licensee: If you want to play the closest thing to a Video Game this movie will ever have, then you should play Final Fantasy IV.
 * Let's beging with the silly fact that the main city of the game is called Baron, then we can also name . Also, this movie is what inspired the Final Fantasy saga to use the Grim Reaper for the 'Death' spell.
