Hey y'all, i've been trying to put a name to this movie for years. I remember watching it when i was 4-5 so it must've been made in the late 80's.

it is set like a labyrinth/dark crystal/legend/willow movie in that (i will guess) four or so main characters have to go on a quest to get to the ending/final showdown/etc.
The make up is similar as well, i remember orc/goblin-like creatures and short, well dressed creatures as well.
anyways, in the film, the one distinguishing part i can remember is that the main characters are eaten by a whale, or take a giant whale as transport.
i cannnot remember much else, except that (MAYBE!) there is a chess game or board game inside of the whale and it is between one of the main characters and the creatures.

I apologize if this post is incredibly vague, it seems like the most annoying of my memories are the ones i remember the least about!

i found three of my other queries on the main site, but this one has eluded me once again, so thanks to you guys for ending some of my troubles!

Thanks
God bless,
dan.

I was wondering if it might have been Baron Munchausen. I really don't think it was Time Bandits.

Of course, with being swallowed by a whale, it could always be either Pinoccio or The Book Of Jonah.....!

Yeah, sounds like Baron Munchausen.
