Best Fictional Universes
Basically, I just want to see what universe is generally considered the best.
So, whether it be books, movies, video games, comics, or anything else, this list is to determine the most popular universe of all time.
-
Star Wars - George Lucas
This is such an elaborate, appealing, and diverse universe that I feel a rush of longing and pleasure throughout my body whenever I watch one of the movies. It is truly stunning.
Not even close. The size and world-building are ridiculous. I'm probably biased too, and I don't know that many others on here, but Star Wars just seems a league above the rest.
-
Harry Potter - J.K. Rowling
How is this number 8? How? Seriously? The amount of detail in the universe of Harry Potter isn't even touched on in the movies, so read the books. Seriously, the small things make these books, and it's definitely a place I'd want to live.
-
Lord of the Rings - J.R.R. Tolkien
Everything that happens before the First Age.
Obviously... Who wouldn't want to live in Middle-earth? Laugh out loud.
A masterpiece of world-building.

Pokémon - Nintendo
-
Mario - Nintendo
-
The Elder Scrolls - Bethesda
The Elder Scrolls feels more real than any other fantasy world, with conflicting stories and unaccounted events making the world far more believable.
I'm the only alchemist in Skingrad. Not much business here, but I can't go back to Morrowind. It's just like anywhere else in the Empire. By the way... do you happen to know what the fine is here in Cyrodiil for necrophilia? Just asking.
While I love both Star Wars and Lord of the Rings, I just thought that The Elder Scrolls is a serious, more mature world (and damn, they make some awesome games!).

Disney Universe - Walt Disney
-
Avatar: The Last Airbender
It has a lot of history and facts but also humor and good moral depth.
-
A Song of Ice and Fire - George R.R. Martin
The perfect balancing act between realism and fantasy.
-
100 Acre Wood - Winnie the Pooh
-
?
Undertale

Tokyo Ghoul - Sui Ishida
-
Alfea - Winx Club
-
Cyberpunk 2077 - Mike Pondsmith
-
The Smurfs Universe
-
Buffyverse
-
Marvel Universe
Although it has a lot of pain and destruction, Marvel would be awesome to live in. Imagine all the awesome people you could meet and stuff you could do. It is also better than DC because of how large and cleverly thought out it is.
-
Neverland - Peter Pan
-
DC Universe
DC has a rich history of multiverse building. Since the day they discovered superheroes, they have led comics, animations, games, and shows and continue to do so!
Obviously, DC is the greatest of all. No one is near it. Whoever thinks that Marvel is better, just look at the copied character. Marvel has no creativity of its own.
The beautiful art and quality of the comics, animations, shows, and games of DC Comics are unrivaled!
-
The Legend of Zelda - Nintendo
-
Berserk - Kentaro Miura
-
Stephen King Universe
Very few sagas mix between genres: horror, mystery, adventure, sci-fi, and even western.
-
Narnia - C.S. Lewis
-
Warhammer 40K
40k is what you'd get if Star Wars had the worldbuilding obsession of J. R. R. Tolkien, the political complexity and decay of George R. R. Martin, and the existential dread of Lovecraft, and then decided nobody is allowed to win.
It's about Space Ancient Rome full of Demi-Gods in charge of armies of even more enhanced Halo Spartans controlled by the Dune theology of a God-emperor who is actually just a psychic corpse connected to a golden lightning rod keeping demon hell from ripping the multiverse. Oh, and many species of Lovecraftian aliens trying to also take over the multiverse. The entire theme of this would be a front cover of a death metal album.
It doesn't even compare to other universes, and LOTR and Star Wars are my all-time favourite books/movies. Warning, you'll sink into a void if you step inside this world.
