| There's an animated SF film called "Fantastic Planet." Perhaps that's
what you are. Did it have blue giants in it?

| Yep. That's it. I wish I had seen more of it.

| 476.3 | I saw it last on... | LEZAH::BOBBITT | Festina Lente - Hasten Slowly | Tue May 26 1987 20:03 | 7 |
| I saw Fantastic Planet - or whatever - a few months ago
on USA network (cable TV). It appears periodically on
Night Flight - their Friday/Saturday night (11 pm to 6 am?)
showfest. Also appearing comedy, music, cult films, etc.

| Perhaps the Moderator should change the title of this Topic
so that it is accurate (in case anyone else looking for this film
is using DIR/TITLE=fantastic), and just for accuracy's sake in general.

Authors too can change the title of their notes. The command is
NOTES> MODIFY NOTE/TITLE="new title"

| 476.6 | try a LARGE video store | DDMAIL::ANDREWS | Just living a life of illusion | Tue May 26 1987 22:51 | 12 |
| (Back to the subject)
I was in a video store this past weekend and saw this film for rent
there. Try the bigger stores, as I have never seen it in the smaller
ones. (I live in the north 'burbs of Chicago so it won't help you
to tell you the store name)
As I recall, it will probably be shown sometime this month again
on USA. Check the cable guide. It is always shown late at night
Saturday night.

| If you're really anxious to see the film, you can buy it for under
ten bucks. I just saw "Fantastic Planet: on VHS for sale for $9.99
at the Purity Supreme grocery store in Nashua, NH.

| That should probably read "mankind's descendants" since the humans
use a lot of advanced technology. Does anyone remember a similar
novel by William Tenn called "Of Men and Monsters"? Here, humanity was
reduced to mice scrabbling in the walls of the 600 foot alien Monsters.
Was done more for satire, though, rather than for evoking the alien.
Both are probably ultimately derived from Swift's "Gulliver's Travels".
