I dunno. Sounds pretty stupid.
It did poorly when it came out. Some IPs get a second wind when they're rediscovered as a cult classic and unexpectedly gain a massive following but that hasn't happened with this.
That cover does terrible work for the eye-candy
An upsetting twist of fate.
You just want to fuck that space cat, we get it.
Well at least Zig Forums gets it.
I rewatched this recently and it was surprisingly good. Really solid protagonist and antagonist, well-paced, emotional, and some solid 2D animation (the CG unfortunately has not aged as well). Pretty much flat-out better than Atlantis: The Lost Empire, fixes all of its problems.
The target audience didn't really care about an animated PG adventure film, specially a traditionally animated one.
It was a better attempt than Atlantis to break new market, but it simply didn't work.
Because it got overshadowed by Harry Potter in the box office. That's all.
Martin Short is in it.
Any movie with Martin Short in it will fail miserably.
Disney released it at the same time as that don bluth movie(atlas AD?) and didnt give it any marketting
Deliberate saboutage by Disney.
Martin Short was in the Jimmy Neutron movie, and that made a profit.
Martin Short only works when his character is understated
>she will never ride your dick like a stolen horse
Jim Hawkins is lowkey the hottest Disney protagonist.
It was an excellent movie,
but then the robot appeared.
What do you mean?
reminder that atlantis: the lost empire got bad ratings because critics didn't like that there weren't any songs
Titan AE´s left a sour taste for this kind of sci fi.
i would say the new opening with the storybook was pretty bad. very forced disney cutesy. was originally this. youtube.com
It had a pretty weak cast and worse visuals than Disney movies that came before and after it. Setting was underdeveloped and illogical as well, given how reliant the movie is on it. Like why did the Atlanteans not bother to record their knowledge? Why can they remember French, English, etc but not their own written language despite being totally isolated? Why do they need Milo to remind them how their vehicles work when there's people from before the collapse who are still alive, including their goddamn leader? Just a really weak script overall.

Don't let the runtime dissuade you, there's a reason this video's racked up almost 6 million views.
>weak cast
holy fuck user i don't think i've ever seen a worse take in my entire life
Wow look at all those one-note characters of no consequence who eat up screentime for no reason. I'm sure glad we had such a large crew which... all gets lumped together at the end as "betrays Milo for money but changes their mind after Milo gives a heartfelt speech". Such character development.
>weak cast
"no"
>worse visuals
that's just like, your opinion, man
>why not record knowledge
their entire civilization collapsed in an apocalypse, they regressed. oral tradition persisting but written knowledge being lost is a pretty common theme in stories like that. you don't need to read to be able to speak a language and have a functional society. also milo's work as a linguist is about atlantean being a universal root language, so to them all other languages are just dialects (which to be fair is the weakest part of the script in my opinion)
>people from before the collapse who are still alive
it's implied only the royals live that long, so the king and kida are the only ones left who witnessed it firsthand. otherwise the population would be massive by the time the expedition finds them.
technological hubris is what brought the wave that destroyed their civilization, beyond that they had no use for weapons in their cave. it makes enough sense that king nedakh would deliberately not keep that knowledge alive regardless of the good it could bring- he knows what could go wrong
things change when you realize that the treasure hunt you set out on is about to end in committing genocide
or at least, it should, as long as you're not an actual sociopath which none of the named cast are besides rourke
Thanks ill check it
disagree user. atlantis was eh but those characters are all i can actually remember from it, that and the scene where kida ascends.
