Before I begin, this looks like a great site. Oh and yes I have read the FAQ post so hopefully I didn't miss this movie already being asked about.

Anyway the movie I am looking for is animated, it is a magical/sci-fi type film. I cannot remember the plot to save my life, but there was some bad guy or evil threat trying to gain power or something. What I do remember is that there were four wizards in the movie, who were brothers, each a different race/ethnicity (white, black, Asian) and each wearing a distinctive color (red, green, blue, etc). I believe that the villain was one of the brothers or maybe the threat was just magical in nature and not one of the brother/wizards. I could be wrong about them being brothers, but that's what always grabbed me as a kid is that the movie implied (I think) that they were brothers even though they were of different races/ethnicities. I also remember a scene where the the hero of the movie (not sure) was in a cave I think and "meets" with the astral projections of each of the brothers....again not sure. The brothers/wizards weren't there but their projected images were...I believe because they each lived in various places across the planet.

I thought maybe the movie was called Wizards, but I rented an animated movie a while ago entitled that and needless to say that wasn't it. That movie was almost like a spoof on animated sci-fi movies...not what I was looking for. [Roll Eyes]

Any help you can provide is appreciated. Oh and thanks to your site, I now know that Starchaser: The Legend of Orin will soon be on DVD and can now tell my sister that Teen Witch will be on DVD soon.

Saint has it. It's a rather good cartoon, I'm surprised it isn't more well known.
