Read MoreMuch to her mother's chagrin, shy Eleanor has built a fantasy world around the sci-fi comic books she collects. When she is suddenly thrust into the world of her favorite comic book, she is drawn into the conflict between Arch-Creep of Chaos and the Starmites, guardian angels of Innerspace. Standing in their way are a colorful assortment of villains, including the delightfully flamboyant Diva, Queen of Innerspace, and her boy-band-crzed Banshee warriors. With the help of hip-hop heartthrob Space Punk, Eleanor finds her inner power and helps the Starmites to victory!

Birdie's manager Alber aand his secretary Rose have cooked up a plan to send him off in style, with a swell new song and one last kiss from a lucky teenage fan on The Ed Sullivan Show! When Birdie arrives in the sleepy town of Sweet Apple, Ohio, its residents get more than they bargained for, as kids and parents square off over Conrad's wild antics.
