MechaPanda reminded me of an animated movie I saw once about ten or so years ago that i remember being mildly steampunk: it was set on mars, dealt largely with two types of psychics being trained/used/manipulated by the government, one type were naturally born that way and others had the seeds of psychic abilities that were enhanced by pills given to them by said government; eventually all hell breaks loose (pardon my language) and some psychics make a break for a spaceship which takes them to earth and they create atlantis, during their escape all life on mars is obliterated due to some kind of war or some such thing.
honestly i have asked everyone i know about this movie and no one has a single clue about it, not even a viable lead...anyone got any thoughts?


Would this have been "E.Y.E.S. of Mars?  A review of the film is here: http://www.themanime.org/viewreview.php?id=19

Good question!  Cheesy

Films such as The Extraordinary Adventures of Adèle Blanc-Sec, Hugo, The Three Musketeers, Sucker Punch and apparently the new Sherlock Holmes, all feature Steampunk elements, in many cases quite deliberately. But whether they are any good or not is another matter (I haven't seen them all so can't even give you a personal pov)

There are some independent shorts around as well, but the same question applies.
Thanks

Another for the list of television shows:  Q.E.D.  from 1982 with Sam Waterston, about a Sherlock Holmes-style Eduardian inventor.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Q.E.D._%28U.S._TV_series%29

Unfortunately it was short-lived, and as near as I can tell, it's unavailable anywhere.


Damn! never heard of it. I have no idea what it was like, but chances are if it came along now it would acquire at least something of a cult following (unless it was really diabolically awful of course...nah probably even then)  Cheesy
