Does anyone know the name of this movie

[Lanum]

It's an old 80's sci fi movie I saw as a kid. This is what I remember: A scientist travels to a different world by some machine he invented. Some guy follows him a few hours later and a girl goes threw it a few minutes after the guy. In the new world she runs into the guy and he said he had been there a week (time is faster in this world). They both began searching for the scientist (he had been there for a few years). Some blue guy is in the move, I think he was helping them. The scientist was known as a wizard by all the people in this world.
Some of the detail may be wrong it has been 15 years since I saw it. If you have any idea of what I'm talking about please email me at lanum_77@yahoo.com
Thank You
Lanum
ps. underscore is seperating lanum from 77 on my email address

I think the one you are looking for might be The Wizard of Speed and Time (1989).

Let us know if it is - sounds like a fun and intriguing film.

[littlemissattitude]

Yes, definitely let us know. That one doesn't sound familiar to me at all.

Thank you for your reply but unfortunatly it is not The Wizard of Time and Speed.

You could try a search on the Internet Movie Database

www.imdb.com

Among other methods, you can search by decade so, if you know that it's an 80s film, that should narrow it down a bit.

I have looked all over the internet but i have had no luck, if anyone has ever heard of this movie please let me know.

Sheesh, I like to consider myself a bit of an authority on these matters, and I'm stumped!

Early '80s? Late '80s? What country is it from?

Sure it wasn't a really "visual" kinda book you read? (heh)

I think "Journey To The Centre of Time" had blue-skinned people from the future in it, time travel etc...I might have to crack a few beers & watch that one again to double-check (heh heh)...but hell, that was from way back in '67!?

I'm stumped!

Me too.
I went to IMDB and tried various searches - keyword, plot, etc.
Finally I thought a systematic search by year (starting at 1980). I then discovered that there were 653 films listed for that year alone. Without some extra info, I don't think you've got much hope. Unless, as Aeolus hints, that you might have the wrong decade.

Lanum, please, if you find out what this movie is, let us all know! Cheers!

This is bugging me!

Hey, I just checked with my Hollywood contacts...the film you're after is Prisoners Of The Lost Universe ('83). And it was a green guy, not a blue guy (apparently...I haven't seen it!).

[I, Brian]

We may have ourselves an answer! Good research.

[Foxbat]

That's a big gold star for Aeolus

Hollywood contacts eh?
I'm impressed

Hi all,


I just wanted to say this scenario amazingly ressembles the one of a 1999 PC game named 'Outcast'. --> If you liked the movie, play the game (wich is excellent BTW).
