My Goodness! Just when I thought that this movie was out of print I come across this wonderful link at Amazon.com! Oh, how I could kiss them!

If you are looking for an 80s cartoon to bring back the good ol' days in animation you can stop here and click the "Add to Shopping Cart" button, because you have found THE most perfect 80s cartoon of all time. People of all ages, male or female will love this movie! Rainbow Brite and the Star Stealer is full of colorful animation (excuse the pun) and great songs that just make you want to get up and dance like it's the 80s all over again.

Rainbow Brite must deal with her greatest adversary yet: an evil Princess who wants to take the greatest light in the world and keep it to herself, thus causing all of the color to disappear from the world. (no light = no colors!) This is an even bigger job than trying to fight Murky or Lurky! Along the way, Rainbow Brite meets a new friend and she learns that working together really does help. Only friendship and unselfishness can save the day!

This is a rare treat to find on the web, so if you really must have an 80s cartoon to keep you going, THIS IS A MUST HAVE! It definitely made my day (as it will over and over on my television set for years to come ^_~)!!

I love this movie! Ever since I was a little kid I've liked rainbow brite. And now at 15 it's no different than when i was 5. I definitely recommend watching this movie. All the rainbow kids and the little sprites were very cute and it actually had a good storyline. If anyone is reading this and you havent seen this great movie i'll give a little review for you :) Rainbow Brite is getting ready to bring spring to earth, when she tries to do this, her star sprinkles don't work. So she goes to find out the source of this problem was. When she goes back to Rainbowland she finds a strange horse there who is looking for her help, she goes with him... that's all i'm going to say, so watch it! :)

It's missing the point dramatically to say that this film depicts girls as useless. There's a fairly typical boy/girl rivalry depicted, yes, but I don't believe anyone who watched the film from the start could reasonably think that girls are depicted as useless or powerless in it.

I was able to figure out that the Krys character's opinion of girls was biased and unjustified (and, ultimately, proven wrong within the film) when I was eight. Today I'm a self-described feminist and I still think "Rainbow Brite and the Star Stealer" presents a number of positive and powerful role models for young girls. I'd happily recommend it.

Rainbow Brite is my all time favorate cartoon when I was little. The Wuzzles are right behind it but anyway I am 15 and absolutley LUV this movie! It's great for anybody of any age. For all those people who think that I'm completley pathetic, you have just lost sight of your childhood. Rock on CHILDREN OF THE 80'S!

This is one of my faverote movies of all times! Not because I'm the biggest Rainbow Fan ever but that it's a Great movie for all ages! The Color kids,Sprites,Kyris,and Rainbow help defeate that MEAN Murky and Lurky and The Princess and count Blog. Well Lurky isn't all that bad! Anybody any age has to see this movie and remeber the great Rainbow Times!

I am in the same boat as everyone else: I love this movie and was ESTATIC to see it was available on DVD. I am just still waiting for it through amazon. I ordered the movie on May 16, 2006 and it is now July 6, 2006 and still no movie. I am NOT happy. I am disappointed in Amazon for advertising a 1 to 3 week delivery period. That is a complete lie and would recommend to anyone purchasing this movie to click on the the "new & used" link, or to use eBay if they can.

Aside from the ordering conflict- the movie itself is wonderful and I am so HAPPY to read that I am NOT the only adult (23 years old) who is in search of a classic! YOU GO RAINBOW BRITE!!

This movie is awesome and truly has a great storyline. It hasinspired and touched me in a way that only can be described when yousee the movie. The movie is about a girl named Rainbow Brite, who brings color to the Earth, with the help of her friends (the Color Kids, Starlite and the Sprites). All I can say is that, Rainbow Brite along with other countless 80's shows (Robotech, He-Man, She-ra, Jayce and the Wheeled Warrios, Transformers, etc.) inspired kids. You look at what kids shows are today and they don't even come close to the feeling you get when watching a good movie like this and the ones mentioned above as well. A great part of many people's childhood. END

I must say Rainbow Brite is one of the greatest cartoons i have ever watched as a child. I grew up with her. I had every movie, every doll, every rainbow brite thing out there. I WAS rainbow brite as a young kid. hehe, I even ate the rainbow brite cereal :D! This is A definite MUST for kids of ALL ages. Though im very dissappointed they discontinued her. :( But ill always remember it :) Hey, im 18 years old and STILL love Rainbow Brite. shes one of thos things that you could never grow out of if yer a kid at heart :)I recommend this video or any others to anyone out there

I loved these movies sooo much when I was a little girl that as soon as I saw "Star Stealer" I had to get it for my little girls. While my 9mo. old is still a little young to car, my 21mo. old cannot get enough of it!!! This was a delight to me because in a way it was passing off my childhood love to her. But she has watched it so many times I had to tell her no more today lol. I really think any little girl will love this, just make sure to buy a second Rainbow Brite movie to help save your own sanity!

i loved this movie as a child, but ever since i ordered it in decemeber, i am still waiting for and keep approving delays in my order - almost 8 months later. i'm getting pretty upset with amazon for advertising something on their website, that they cannot provide. don't bother ordering this dvd from amazon unless you like approving delays on your order.

****UPDATE****
i finally ordered one off ebay, and it arrived four days later. thanks ebay!
