"help me find this movie" anon

(Anonymous) 2012-07-27 11:15 pm (UTC)(link)
I found it!

It's "Sinbad: The Battle of the Dark Knights" (1998)

The character I was thinking about was called "Bophisto", not Calypso or Calypto. Whoops! :V

I actually found it because I was talking with my mom and the movie came up and apparently she had watched it too! She helped me find the name of one of the actors and from there we found it.

There isn't that much information on it, but I'm fairly sure this was it.

Thank you to fingalsanteater for the help! c:


If I may, there is another movie I had been trying to find that has been similarly difficult to find.

Actually, I was talking about this movie with my mom just before the Arabian fantasy movie came up in our conversation.

She's been watching the opening ceremony of the London Olympic games and it jogged her memory, so she was able to give me more accurate information than before:



This is a film that aired on the TV on seventies, dubbed, so she never caught the original title and the dubbed title simply never stuck with her.

She says it might have been American, but isn't sure.

In it, a boy in his twenties who is a wizard has to fight an evil wizard who killed his parents when he was little. This boy has a scar in the shape of a lightning bolt in his forehead.

There is no magical school, and apparently the whole movie was about the conflict between him and the evil wizard.

My mom has no idea how the film ended, because it was terribly dull and boring and she couldn't stand watching it for long.

When the Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone film came out, my mom was surprised at seeing some of the concepts rehashed, and commented to me the similarities between that and the movie she watched.

If anybody has any help, that would be greatly, greatly appreciated!

Question-Was it animated?

Hey, you're welcome (even though I wasn't able to find it). I actually, kind of wanted to watch it so I'm glad you found it!

Hmm. That next one will difficult to find without something to distinguish it from Harry Potter. Can you think of anything distinct and different from HP that could me search for it?

The only big things are that the protagonist is an adult in his twenties and that there is no school of magic, but other than that, no, sorry.

I suspect that it has to be something low-key/maybe low-budget, because I've searched for "films/books similar to Harry Potter" and none of them sound quite like it.

It doesn't help that it's my mom who watched it and it was only a part of it.

The decade it aired though, is new info for me, so I'm going to start making some heavy Google searches using that.

Tomorrow, I'm going to ask my mom if she remembers anything about the setting, special effects, if any actor seemed familiar, etc.

Thank you so much, though!
