I liked the kid who played the feral child in Road Warrior.
Im not sure he got a credit in the film though. |

That kid from Never Ending Story? |
| adub74 | 16 Jul 2009 1:02 p.m. PST |
How about the kid from E.T.? |

Feral child in Road Warrior = Emil Minty I looked him up on wiki and it says he has been managing a jewelry store for the last 18 years. It also looks like he has dabbled in other small roles according to IMDB. There was also a "where are they now" piece on TV about him in 2006. |

The boy in the second Mummy film really impressed us. |

Daniel Radcliffe, Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban(2004). This is the best film of the series (and a terrific film in general), and Radcliffe's performance is well done. I believe he was 14-15 when it was made. Sabu as Abu in The Thief of Baghdad (1940). A classic film, and the young teen is excellent in the role. He was 16 when the film was released, but I can't tell when filming started; his birthday was in January, so if filming began in 1939, I would say he qualifies. |

Man, can "To Kill A Mockingbird" rank as fantasy? Every kid, shoot, every actor in there was just spot on. |

Does sixth sense count? Ghosts and stuff are pretty fantastical. If so, that kid was great. |

Gosh you are all wrong. Haley Joel Osment, in A.I. If you had a dry eye at the end of that movie you are NOT human.

James Mattes] I agree he's a great actor, especially in The Sixth Sense, but AI was so bad it was hard to notice the acting. My only reaction at the end of that movie was relief it was over. |

Butch Patrick played Eddie Munster in the movie, "Munsters go home!" Does that make him eligible? Ditto for nominating Daniel Radcliff. He was really good in Azkaban. |

Craig Warnock, who played the kid in Time Bandits was great. |
| SpuriousMilius | 17 Jul 2009 6:08 p.m. PST |
Just to represent the TMP Geezers I nominate Jimmy Hunt the "Boy astronomer" in 1953's Invaders from Mars (he also played the cop in Tobe Hooper's 1986 remake). |

OK, do we mean scifi or fantasy? Or both? The Road Warrior isn't fantasy. Ditto E.T. and Jurassic Park. For actual fantasy movies, I'll nominate Jeremy Sumpter from the 2003 version of Peter Pan, who did an excellent job. Also, runner-up would be Freddie Highmore from The Spiderwick Chronicles. |

Fantasy is a different setting than scifi. Technically, there's overlap, but in movies (and gaming, for that matter) fantasy is swords and dragons and wizards, whereas scifi is spacehips and aliens and laserguns. |
