Not everyone can be a super hero so the school holds admissions auditions. The military has it on good authority that an evil super-villain has his sights set on the destruction of the Earth. Students are being trained for a very dangerous mission that neither the students, nor their instructor, knows about.

There is an agenda to the academy of super heroes, though.

He is presumed to be a washed-up hero from years gone by who has been employed by a private academy to help train the next generation of super heroes. Jack Shepard (Tim Allen) is such a super hero. Man that music gave me nightmares.Super heroes are for the comic book, the cartoon world and for movies that are family friendly. I still can't look at pictures of galaxies or stars to this day! Which I realise makes me sound like a complete lunatic.

Until seeing it just now on your website, the only thing I remember about it is how much it scared the living daylights out of me! It was genuinely a contributing factor to a phobia I now have as an adult about anything that's on a massive scale. I saw this film as a young kid in London in the late 1970s I've been looking for it ever since. Long Live Canada! Your NFB rocked the UK in the 70's and still does now! Only very recently did a Canadian friend mention it to me and I immediately came here to watch it. I love this film and have used its reference many times. I last saw this when I was six back in the UK. which film came first? was one the precursor of the other? t, both it seems were based on Kees Boeke's 1957 book Cosmic View. this was produced in 1968 - the same year as Charles and Ray Eames' Powers of Ten. Ray and Charles Eames Power of Ten was made in 1977.

I wonder how long it took for those drawings to be done mykem07, All were inspired from 1957 book 'Cosmic View' by Kees Boeke. Both films were done in 1968, the Eames' one went on to be redone in 1977, as the 1968 version was a rough prototype.
