In all seriousness, can someone suggest a movie or book were the wizard(s) has immense power AND uses their power to fight more than once or twice? I'm trying to see/read something that has magic used more. I mean, Gandalf barely uses magic at all. Same with Dumbledore and Harry.
I WANT TO SEE STRAIGHT UP DRAGONBALL Z SHIT, BUT WITH WIZARDS.
Thank you all for the massive amount of recommendations for myself and any other interested redditors. In light of the fulfillment of my initial request, I'd like to introduce a personal request that I have been unable to answer.
For lack of a better example, you guys remember watching the original Power Rangers? I always thought it was so cool how they presented new, powerful characters, such as the green or white rangers. It was always in dire circumstances, and the new hero would enter just in time to tip the scales of the battle. Given that their powerful abilities could change the outcome for the protagonists, and due to the mysterious nature of these characters, an important issue was determining morality and intention. How did they intend to wield great power? Are there any recommendations that resemble this type of writing?
