For the last couple years I've been on a quest to find all the movies I used to love as a kid. But I'm down to 3 that seem impossible! Maybe one of you can help me! :D

Movie 1 - I recently had a tiny break in this case. This movie was almost definitely made from a children's book called "The Deep Dives of Stanley Whale", but the author, illustrator and printing company are all.. well.. gone so that was a deadend. It was about a small white whale who was separated from his mother when his pod dove under an oil slick and he couldn't hold his breath anymore. He surficed and got covered in oil. Then he ended up finding his hero Moby **** in what looked like the ruins of Atlantis. I remember Stanley hated squid/octopus, but he caught one for Moby anyway because he was old and tired (and in the process he got inked)

Movie 2 - I saw this on TV one time and then it vanished. It was kind of anime like. It was about a brother and sister who were raised by wolves. Something was after them, but I don't remember what. Eventually the wolves were killed and the boy and girl (now older) turned into wolves themselves.

Movie 3 -- OK here's the weird one! Memory is shakey but I used to rent it every week as a kid (90-92). It started with a boy in a greenhouse. He talked to his plants and played music for them on a violen or a flute (?) A fairy type being came and befriended him and took him into some kind of fantasy world (or to meet other fairies) The movie was filled with classical music. At one point they were "flying" through a vortex type thing with music notes or flowers circling all around. I think it was "dance of the Sugarplum Fairies" that was playing but don't quote me on that. I also THINK at some point she changed sizes. Either she was small and made herself big to get his attention (she may have loved him) Or something like that. But he was clueless.

So.. anyone? :o please? Lol

I just went to a website that might help me figure out the name of that cartoon with the whale. If I get the name of the cartoon I'll let you know.

Ok, the 3rd movie you're talking about I know I've seen it so but I can't reemmber it clearly and I've been trying to find it myself. I found it noce on VHS in a store when I was down south and KNEW it was that movie. But I couldn't get it because I had no money. But I remembered it.
If you can wasn'tt here a seen with the guy where he's sitting in a leave (after being shrunk by the fairy), and it was somewhat like a jandula ride through white lillies or some flowers? I think I remember that much.
The fairy was, I tink, a blond...
I know what movie your talking abuot and I can't rember the name either! ARG!! :confused:
Get back w/ me if you can! :o

The first movie you want to know about is called Samson and Sally the song of the whales. Believe it or not you may still be able to find it on tape. The very last movie is called a journey through fairy land. Its very interseting and beautifully done. Just be careful what type you get there are a couple flowting out there. Make sure it is the anime version not an americanised type. I have had that bad luck before its very frustrating when you expect one thing and get another:mad: . The second one I have no idea what that movie is about?:confused: But I will keep racking my brain to see if I remember it.:rolleyes:

OMMG thank you so much for asking! I have not been able to figure out what movie #3 was for like my entire life & every time I went to a movie store or a book store I'd like look for hours! All I could remember to describe it was like a animie fantasia & now I know. So great.

If you find number 3, please please tell me. I watched that movie years ago, it sparked my love for classical music and I've been looking for it for years.

I've been searching frantically for movie #2 for 20 years (saw fragments of it when I was 5).
The kids were chased by some tall, freaky looking red monster.

I remember one scene when the male kid looked into the water and saw an image of the monster.

It could be that Epic movie, although I can't find a single image to confirm it.
