Movies / TV Shows
Arcane
This series mixes arcane technology and how it applies to Victorian class dynamics very well. A large part of this series focuses on how disruptive new technologies are and how that effects both upper and lower class societies.Bridgerton
While the setting is slightly too early because it's Regency, not Victorian, this series highlights nobility and upper class expectations, focusing on scandals, romance, and relationships.Carnival Row
A Victorian Fantasy filled with mythological creatures, Carnival Row is a victorian horror drama filled with magic and romance.League of Extraordinary Gentlemen
The characters in this movie are characters from popular fiction from the Victorian era (the Invisible Man, Dr. Jekyl and Mr. Hyde, Captain Nemo, etc) and while many of the inspirations are Steampunk, you can still take inspiration from the pulp adventure style.Les Miserables
Set in Victorian Era France, this movie is about social norms, morals, and expectations in a society that is rapidly changing, while fighting to make the world better. While Terranon is more pulp adventure, this movie focuses on the plight of the poor and working class.The Mummy
Although this movie is set in 1920, this is a classic 'exploring ruins' / 'archaeology dig' of a type that was common in the Victorian era. We took inspiration from the magic, puzzles, and adventure of this movie.Sense and Sensibility
Another movie with the same themes as the Bridgertons.Stardust
A world where magic is common, with pirates in flying airships, witches, and the magic of true love, Stardust is the premier example of a classic adventure story.Books
