The first thing Filmation
made when creating the BraveStarr series was a feature length movie. This film
was released in theaters about a year after the figures were released though. By this
time, BraveStarr was already considered somewhat of a failure, and the movie
didn't do well at all. As far as is known, the movie was not released on video in the US,
but was in the UK. Today the film is considered one of Filmation's best productions ever. This is how a published synopsis described the movie. Set in a science-fiction universe where high technology is combined with the icons of the Old West, the film features a cowboy named BraveStarr who must save planet New Texas from the villainous Stampede, a sci-fi cattle baron, and his enforcer, Tex Hex, who are determined to rule the universe. Together with his trusted companions Thirty-Thirty (a robot horse), J.B. (a lady judge), sidekick Deputy Fuzz, and mystic mentor Shaman, BraveStarr does battle with the forces of evil. Here are the complete production details and also some credits. An extensive gallery of video captures from the movie. One of the best parts of the movie is the music. The movie was released on video, but only in the UK. Here is the cover of that video. Here is a scan of the original movie poster. |
