Trivia
This was to be Disney's first PG-rated movie. However, poor test screening convinced the studio to re-shoot the ending and hold the release until April 1980 (and it bombed). Thus, The Black Hole became the first Disney movie with a PG rating. See more »Goofs
Continuity: After Mrs. Alywood saves Jan from drowning in the pond they are in Mrs. Alywood's cottage talking. Jan's bangs change from being spread out across her forehead to being all together. See more »Quotes
Ellie Curtis: She had to. She had to push you down to get you loose from the branch. She saved your life.See more »
