Fly Me to the Moon is a 2008 animated European film that started out as a 4-D Ride in various theme parks. It's about three flies wanting to go to space, after hearing about space flight Apollo 11 launching to the moon. Unfortunately, some Russian flies are trying to sabotage the launch because they can't stand the idea of Americans reaching the moon before Russians do.

Not to be confused with the jazz standard that was popularized by Frank Sinatra and later used as the ending theme to Neon Genesis Evangelion.


Tropes used in Fly Me to the Moon include:
  • Inspired By: the Space Race. The film has an epilogue where Buzz Aldrin tells the viewers that no flies were aboard Apollo 11.
