okay, so i think it's a movie from the 80's or early 90's, I watched it when i was a kid.. all i remember is that there were these little cute flying saucers in it, lots of them, and this guy who tried to help them get home or something like that...

Batteries Not Included comes to mind-sound familiar? They visit a kid and it's a family story about keeping them from the "evil" government while they try to get them home? That had lots of little cute saucers.

I agree...it's got to be "batteries not included..."

I'm trying to verify a movie- it was a Science Fiction/Cyberpunk movie back in the 80's. I remember it had a guy who had half of his face covered in a metal plate and had long claws. I remember there was a drawing on the cover of the character which looked wicked cool, but then watching the movie SCREAMED "budget"

Ugh what a bad movie

Futureshock? Does that sound right?

Any takers?

well not many animes that fit that description but through some searching i came up with this one. Never seen it but it sounds about right. First aired in the US in 1961

I saw this movie in the early 80's it was about this young man with tatoos on his wrists. His village was attacked by snakepeople, he hunted them with a bow that shot energy arrows. If I remember there was an old man that transfered the tats to the young man which gave him the ability to use the bow. Does anybody has any idea what this movie is? I tried looking it up all I found was with snakemen was Dreamquest, and I know it wasn't that movie.

Krian have read this entire thread of posts and everyone is right you ROCK

, that is it and I am so glad to see that, I was afraid I made it up.

Since you helped so much on that one I wonder if you can help with this other movie.

Again when I was really little, I watched an animated movie I think by F.H.E and I think someone else asked about it. There was this guy who goes into this fairy world, with fairies, trolls, and this little Fawn creature half person half goat, that could shapeshift. At first in the show he could only shapeshift into small birds. Then the guy goes to fight this Shadow monster creature that lived in a tower, and he defeats it and then the fawn transforms into a really big eagle and carries the guy home. I really wish I could find this show.

Ok I watched this movie not to long ago about a few years about these highschoolers, who find this magnetic stone or something in this forest, and it gives them all these powers like one girl who goes bad had the ability to control peoples minds by telling them something, and the guy who beats her had the ability to control his body like he could make himself go deaf which is how he defeats her, he couldnt hear her commands. I am not sure what the other teens could do, I know one girl wore yellow I think, the colors they kids wore were noticable. I really need to start looking at the name of movies I watch LOL.
