The Last Unicorn is the original animated classic that harkens unto the original calling of the such things made of Stardust.  The film features the some dude as the Hero, and Mia Farrow as the so lovely and enchanting unicorn fated to love a man. Flags appear in this movie set in European Middle Age times.

An old greedy witch uses exotic animals charmed with spells to dupe audiences into thinking they are mystical animals from another world.  However a few creatures really are animals from another land of magic.

All along the carnival troop cages are pennants.  The pennants are a dark purple with yellow crescent moon.

 Although this movie can be enjoyed by children many of themes are of an adult and new age mystical nature.

The film has a dash of mystery, sprinkled with a hint of fairy dust, two tea spoons of a hobbit salt, and baked with a glaze of romantic embers.

Flag of Phoenix Arizona



The city flag of Phoenix Arizona is as distinct and simple - in a similar vein to the 'state-prefectural' flags of Japan. Oddly Japan is the proverbial Phoenix-like nation of our world.

Insiginia of Phoenix - Star Trek First Contact 1996

 Notice the Skylab Mission insignia
 along the wall
In The Star Trek - First Contact 1996 several original and official space insignia appear in the film.  During the bar meeting in Montana the crew of Star Trek meet of the soon to be legendary Zefram Cochran.  
You can also barely make out what is supposed to be a green wing of a phoenix on the side of the hull of ship when Data and Captain Picard make first hand contact with the Phoenix. 

 Here first officer Commander William Riker gazes at a primitive moon devoid of cities and bright lights. Since he is from the future, the moon is populated with visible cities and lights.  Thus a 'new moon' is no longer completely black in his time, rather city lights twinkle on the moon like a Christmas Tree, in his timeline.

Zefram with his ships insignia on his left shoulder. Zefram had no idea his ideas would have such deep impact upon the future.  In many ways were are the lucky-middle civilization that lives before 'first contact' and void understanding of the mysterious dominion of stars. 


The Phoenix was originally made to be nuclear missile but fate saw that it was to usher in a new age of peace for humanity and the cosmos.
