The Stop Motion I've seen from it is magnificent. I don't think art forms become "obsolete". Stop Motion will also have its place in children's movies and I think it still works well for fantasy pictures, where hyper realism isn't the goal. Photography didn't make painting obsolete. It just made it more focused as an art form.

Great video. I had heard about the project and what had been happening with me movie throughout the years, but I also didn’t know that it had been finished. Thanks for sharing. With that being said I don’t think about stop motion animation being obsolete, it is a different type of art, which can be enjoyed just the same for who is into it.

I was somewhat surprised to find that the female lead was someone I should have recognized from my childhood years for her role on the series Nanny and the Professor. A sort of Flying Nun idea where she is normal except for having some sort of paranormal powers. perhaps if the talky aspect was slimmed down and they held on until they could afford to shoot the River rat scene, its overall pace might have been better. I would still watch Zepplins vs Pteradactyls!

Wow l remember this saga from when it was first announced in the starlog magazine. At like a bride at the alter waited for this project to come to fruit. Also remember the film “Equinox” having the same problem but thankfully was unshelved a few years later. I still love agreat stop motion movie but like the armature that holds the animation model together a decent screenplay has be developed to hold the story together and provide interest to the characters as well as the overall narrative which it’s presenting this why the harryhausen stuff still holds up. Thanks for posting! ❤

@@Naday_Valdron I need to spring that one on my family. I used to watch it out the back of my dad's car on the opposite screen while at the drive-in. My parents' always wanted to watch the more 'adult movies' so until I finally got the Criterion release decades later I had never heard the dialog since you had to have the speaker hanging off the pole to hear.
