batteries not included (18-Dec-1987)
Director: Matthew Robbins Writers: Brad Bird; Mick Garris; Brent Maddock; Matthew Robbins; S. S. Wilson Music Composed by: James Horner Producer: Ronald L. Schwary Keywords: Sci-Fi/Comedy Desperate residents of an apartment building slated for destruction at the hands of a greedy real estate developer receive assistance from helpful miniature mechanical aliens. Among the holdout residents are a retired boxer and an elderly couple who struggle to run a restaurant in the building. Sentimental and predictable, yet somehow still delightful. Produced by Steven Spielberg's company, which played a large part in the pre-animation era special effects.
