>takes the best adventure story of all time and tries to make everything ‘extreme’ from making Jim a flying surfer, Flint some godly space pirate emperor, everybody is now a weird furry or a silly robot.
>undercuts tons of beloved and classic adventure imagery by ‘borging it up’, your Hispaniola and magic flying ship from Peter Pan are ‘so last millennia’, it’s y2k and 2.0 now!
>just awful, cringe inducing, already completely dated alterations like Ben Gunn being a robot named B.E.N. Ooh we’re flying through the nebula like an ocean, watch out for the black whole whirlpool!
>this entire false start on the new age of mystery and adventure, shared by Atlantis. Like it’s more teenage and arcane and magical but it kind of sucks because it’s supposed to be new-age. Like this was an unsavory or weird idea of new-age magic and adventure
Animation and performances are great but this movie was such a bad choice, you can really see the gears turning like they’re trying to upgrade an old ride with tacky new stuff. I wouldn’t say it’s disrespectful of the original so much as it loses it’s sense of adventure by altering everything in corny ways. Atlantis was a bit better but also had this feeling of trying too hard. Anyone else feel the same way?
Most people love it.
One of the best long johns ever.
BEN is cringe, yes
I'll show you a long john waheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeey
>Most people love it.
source?
i’m a person and i loved it
>source: i asked your mom what i thought of it after a wild romp in the hay last night
If people loved it so much then why was it a massive flop with barely any lasting impact?
I mean in hindsight. by Cinemaphilegays
It was a bomb in theaters
Lackluster marketing.
It's a cult classic now.
Yeah cult of furries
The creators thought Disney sabotaged it. Personally I remember getting some Treasure Planet asteroid-shooting game CD from cereal.
I remember that too. It was a 3D game where you controlled the ship moving through space. If you shoot at the space whales the captain reprimands you and then Jim says "Sorry ma'am, won't happen again!"
>The creators thought Disney sabotaged it
Yeah wasn't that the common theory to push out/transition to 3D/Cgi shit instead of the traditional 2d/handdrawn
It wasn't just a gimmick. The creators were super into it and kept nagging Disney to let them make it. Disney wasn't interested until they kept making hits, but the film performed bad like the execs expected.
underrated kino
Disney fell into mediocrity for a while with this film. Fantasia 2000, Emperor's New Groove, Atlantis and Lilo & Stitch were good. This is when they lost their touch imo.
Imagine spending your Friday morning angrily typing some soulless shit like this about a kids cartoon from two decades ago.
I bet you seethe over the muppet version of Treasure Island as well.
Anyone who doesn't LOVE Muppets Treasure Island is a horrible person. It's an 11/10 movie.
THERE ARE MEN WHOSE HEARTS
ARE AS BLACK AS COAL
Actually creepy when the heads sing but what a great movie.
Also Curry is such an icon.
I see you are also men of culture responding to an obvious bait/shitpost thread.
I SEE US AS MEMBERS OF A NOBLE BROTHERHOOD
>watch old episodes of Muppet Show
>Sweetums is copping feels on all the sexy female guest stars during song and dance numbers
absolute mad lad
Man, those are so comfy but I'm too much of a zoomer/millienuiel/whatever to recognize most of the guests. I legit know like 10 out of 70.
Unironically my favorite movie.
Same
>WE GOT CABIN FEVER
No I watched it yesterday night instead of Treasure Island because it’s one of the greatest movies ever
based
There are very few good live action treasure island movies I noticed.
Shiver my timbers, shiver my soul
Treasure Planet was amazing.
But Atlantis was crap, I hate that film.
Shit taste. Atlantis is god tier.
I remember being weirded out as a kid by the romance between the main guy and the furry woman.
the what now
You're confusing the professor with the MC, right?
I've never seen this animated film, but whenever I do see an image of it on somewhere like say, right here on Cinemaphile, I'm always vividly reminded of that one obscenely demented picture of the cat-women captain character equipped with a gigantic sweaty set of hyper-virile male genitalia, force feeding the mercilessly bound dog character untold heaps of what is presumably her own waste - his grotesquely shit-bloated body staring hopelessly back at her in a grim sterile horror-movie dark corridor - his body of course already stuffed to the point of no escape, shit filled flesh sandwiched between the soughing walls
I don't even know their names and yet this is stained within my memory
Silver is a rare BASED surrogate Disney-dad. BASED intro exposition by Tony Jay. Emma Thompson's voice is always heavenly. But yes, B.E.N. was annoying as frick.
He beats Tim Curry as a Long John because he's really great at being a surrogate dad. Tim Curry is too maniacal to be trusted. Great singer though...
Tim Curry is the other kind of daddy. The kind it's more fun not to trust.
Yea, definitely. Love him but he's not the same type of dad that TP's LJS is.
She's got a weird hotness. They could have made a hotter catgirl. all the furries were disgusting in a sense.
It was fricking pathetic how hard they were trying to make BEN the new Robin Williams Genie
I had a Mandela effect that it was actually him.
I swear the role was written for him too, it acts spergy like him.
Funny since Robon Williams played that red robot in Robots not long after. He was funnier than BEN.
speaking of Robin Williams and muppets:
Ok, that ending was hilarious
*blocks your path*
9gag meme, frick off.
I like this movie. Went to see it with my mom and then hunted down every piece of Ben Gunn in the Happy Meals
Cringe bait, but nevermind
This movie has so much SOVL it's almost unreal
Much to my dismay, the cat lady was a childhood crush.
pussy joke goes here
This shit wouldn't fly today
?t=51
this movie is a pure late 90's early 2000's time capsule
truly kino
John telling Jim he has the making of greatnes/montage of Jim's dad leaving and the end always makes me tear up
Yea, it's fricking amazing.
Telling the blob to stay with Jim was pretty kino too.
Rewatching the ending now. Frick, it's good.
I know, that's the exact clip I'm watching.
>missing out the best part that preceded it
Love it or hate it, Treasure Planet featured one of the hottest characters ever created by Disney. That's a fact.
you being a troony is also a fact
you never breeding is also a fact
Jim's mom is hot sex
like all Disney moms, say what you like about Disney but once upon a time they animated the hottest moms around
Based mom appreciator. The Treasure Planet Milf mogs the incredibles mom
Definitely, and her hair down mode is hot.
AND I WANT A MOMENT TO BE REAL
WANNA TOUCH THINGS I DON'T FEEL
WANNA HOLD ON AND FEEL I BELONG
you chose for this seemingly random dissertation, what is considered by many now, to be THE single most underrated Disney movie OAT.
LUL
Yes
This and Atlantis were great.
Go suck a dick, because you're clearly a deviant homosexual.
It was Ludo Kino. I should watch it again
Treasure Planet, Atlantis The Lost Empire, and The Iron Giant are the holy trinity of early 2000's animated films
> inb4 Giant came out in 99
Its close enough
For me it's Pokemon The Movie 2000, Digimon 2000, and Yugioh: The Pyramid of Light.
Idk why but I always liked Pokemon 3 the most, but these are a solid line-up.
What about
>Anastasia
>Titan A.E.
>Prince of Egypt
>Titan AE
That movie sucked.
Never saw Anastasia
Titan A.E’s plot was nothing special but it had cool alien and spaceship designs.
Prince of Egypt is kino of the highest order.
Anyone have that the screenshot of the guy on here who has to go therapy cause he became obsessed with having a robot arm from watching this movie? He tried to cut it off or something
Today, I will remind them
He's leaving humanity behind.
He's more machine than man at this point.
