I like Atlantis more because it has better female characters and sex appeal. Helga, Kida, and Aubrey are all hot. The only female I remember from Treasure Planet is that cat lady.

I also like how it is historical fiction based loosely around the world almost heading to WW1. The machines had this art deco look to them. There were fashion choices that I liked like Aubrey's New York street girl look, Helga's military brat and spy look, Kida
s foreigner look, and Rourke's military look.

And there was a story about Milo worried about the treasure of Atlantis falling into the hands of the Kaiser.

Disney didn't submit Atlantis for the inaugural Best Animated Feature academy award, so it couldn't end up among the 3 nominees

Atlantis loses out for me because the main villain's motivation makes no sense. The movie just goes off the rails when they actually reach Atlantis.
That said, Treasure Planet was just loosely following the structure of Treasure Island so no points for creativity aside from the visuals. It's pretty close.

Atlantis by a country mile. That's not to say that Treasure Planet isn't good, and I still prefer its aesthetic to Atlantis' dieselpunk, but Atlantis' story and characters were better developed and overall more charming and it's nice that every member of the crew got their own little moment during the movie. As fun as Treasure Planet is, can you really say you cared about any other characters besides John Silver and Jim? (And maybe Captain Amelia even if it's just because (You) wanna fuck her.)

I have a friend who is obsessed with Treasure Planet to the point of writing a script for a Treasure Planet tv series. Unfortunately, he doesn't really have an real talent for writing and can't draw, so he uses AI to create soulless pictures of the series he's planning. If any kind of new Treasure Planet media came out, he'd probably be psyched, but it'd also mean he wasted a lot of money on "screenwriting assisting" software.

>cared about any other characters besides John Silver and Jim?
I mean, you're not supposed to really? The cat woman was given more cause its a movie and it needed more general development, but the movie is directly about John Silver and Jim. Even the adventure is secondary to their story.
So while I'll say the adventure, action, and cast is better in Atlantis, I think treasure planet is a better movie. Sort of a splitting hairs moment where Atlantis is a better popcorn adventure and TP is a better dramatic adventure. I'll also concede most people probably like Atlantis more.

In Disney's case specifically because they weren't musicals and in both their case and Dreamworks' because they half-assed trying to appeal to an older audience. If Dreamworks had had the balls to make El Dorado a PG-13 movie and been successful doing it they could have created and defined an entire market because that's STILL something that Disney won't touch with a 10-foot pole.

>Sinbad
I had forgotten that this even existed so that's something right there

>Spirit
I remember this one because I saw it in theaters and it was god-awful. Basically a horse girl movie but without anything to appeal to horse girls.

>Treasure Planet
>El Dorado
See above re: half-assing. Having THE pirate story played even marginally straight as a PG movie is just ridiculous.

>Atlantis
See above re: not a musical.

TP
Looking into all the stuff the studio had ready and made for the second movie and possible TV series really makes it feels like the movie was a stepping stone into really fleshing the setting out the team wanted to do once they got "treasure island but in space" part out of the way. That one obscure computer game added a bunch by itself for adding to the races, space navy, and such.
>>
>>154340108
It's a tough question, because they both have serious problems in the third act.
Atlantis would have been better off as a miniseries. Give the initial expedition more than a montage, and have more time for character arcs in the final act rather than "we're bad now, wait nevermind we're good".
Treasure Planet was weighed down completely by its Ben character, who clearly was intended for Robin Williams. Wanted that Genie magic, but instead he's just an annoyance.
I'd say Treasure Planet is better simply due to fewer problems.

>>
>>154351647
Reading over the synopsis, seems like it
>>
Atlantis is somewhat decent, but it's not amazing.
Treasure Planet is in fact pretty good. But ultimately they both live in the shadow of better and more popular works. Every Pixar film, all of the 90's Renaissance films, Shrek, Lilo and Stich and Emperor's New Groove. They had to compete against so much, and they never ascended to the higher levels partially because of that. I think we can all agree that our opinions of Atlantis would be way higher if it came out in the early 80s.
>>
>>154351640
I had no idea this even existed, but my wish still stands if this isn't officially "canon."
>>
I'm not very knowledgeable with cartoons and all that but I was honestly shocked when I checked informations about Atlantis and found out that a lot of reviewers disliked it precisely because it had no dancing and singing. This is so bizzare to be I honestly don't know what to say. Almost as bizzare as complaining that Robin Hood movie is not about dancing animals.

I remember however how few years ago discussed animated movies with my mother and mentioned Atlantis and how it was financial failure, wondering why it happened. She replied that, in her opinion, it was about movie being "stuck between two target audiences" as "too dark for kids, too childish for adults". While I don't really agree with second part, it might be also related how animation was and still is considered something "for kids" by older people.
>>
>>154351840
It's a downfall of Disney's own making. They had been making animated movies with musical segments for so long that when they were gone, people complained. And similarly, many of their movies were made with an "all ages" attitude (but really, kids. Got to sell merch, happy meals toys and whatever else somehow!), which ruined the perception that animation can be for adults too for so very long.

What annoys me is her 'sudden reveal' as a villain
She works better as loyal to the old man
Just that she hired the crew based on them being the best with unknown allegiances versus good enough while also being loyal
So she made the mistake of thinking everyone on the crew was like her when the Army Guy likely got to them all and snuck on guns and stuff for what would have been peaceful
It also makes more sense for Milo's plan to attack back later that she created a successful plan than a dude who spent his whole life in a boiler room
Her job was to protect Milo and get him to Atlantis so she did

>>154342799

hard agree.
TP characters generally kind of suck except amelia and john silver and the robot tanks the whole thing so hard it's not even funny.
Atlantis starts out great with a whole cast of great characters, then it just kind of fall flat, but without ever going truly bad
>>
>>154353013
NTA but I also watched it recently. Its a 9/10 ruined by extremely 90s music at odd times, great animation being drowned by 3d backgrounds giving it this wild sliding feel, a super rushed story that is mostly the fault of the medium of animation costing too much for breathing room, a story that should really have been pg13 to give a bit more bite and to drop a few of the overly childish lines, and some middling acting from the cast but not too bad.
It ends up at like a 6/10 just because of too much working actively against a great premise. It would benefit more than Atlantis and Treasure Planet from a live action remake that expands the story.

Art style was fine. It's the fact that Iron Giant was just a bad story overall to market it towards children. I loved Atlantis as a kid, but got bored with Iron Giant when watching it in theaters. There's also the fact that Iron Giant had zero good characters and story archs in it while Atlantis was filled with all kinds of memorable characters and had 2? very good subplots in addition to the main plot

Easily Atlantis. I love the look of this movie and the characters. I wish the show focused more on the adventure and tech more than the magic

>it was the stated goal of the expedition: Go to Atlantis and get the crystal. Really Milo was the one who went off script.
The official goal was to just bring back evidence of Atlantis. Milo didn't know they wanted to steal the crystal.

Atlantis I had more fun with

I loved Treasure Planet and watched it a million times as a kid but I never watched Atlantis

>>154340108
treasure planet = bigger universe, more dangerous enemies
atlantis = magic

idk, hard to decide

>>154340108
I've only seen Treasure Planet, and the robot ruins the 2nd half of the movie

>>154348694
and those movies all bombed, so what's your point?

Atlantis is the stronger of the two imo.
Some of the cgi is jarring, but it's better than TP.
Wish they would of done more WW1/WW2'ish weapons vs the rediscovered ancient power weapons.
I personally feel like Atlantis should of been longer and explored a few more things. But idk, I'm a retard.

The remakes are nostalgia cash-ins. Disney does not believe there is nostalgia in Atlantis to cash-in on.

atlantis is way too fucking compressed for the pulpy adventure story its trying to do
it could stand at least another 15 minutes
the giant, toy selling submarine shouldn't get btfo 9 minutes after it shows up

Treasure planet.
I recently rewatched Atlantis, it used to be one of my favorite disney movies as a kid, first movie I bought with my own money even, but man it does not hold up, and I'm not even talking about all that white savior shit.
>early plot rushed so that it feels like a recap more than a movie
>completely flat characters who change their allegiance on a dime
>plotholes such as "if these people were alive 4000 years ago why can't they even read their own writing"
The only cool thing this movie has going for it is art direction, character designs are cool as fuck, vehicles are even better, and atlantis itself is okay (but a bit too mesoamerican inspired for my tastes).
In comparison, treasure planet suffers from no plot issues, has ONE annoying character, and is aesthetically just as cool, if a bit duller in color palette. Ofc the plot and character beats are lifted straight off a classic book so that's kind of cheating.

Eugh, you're one of "those" types. If anything it was a negative look at colonizers, first-contact, exploitation than it was "white saviors". And even then, that wasn't the main point of the story. It was about power lusting and hubris.

Does anyone have the Mignola concept art? I bought the comic reprint because it has some but not all. Also Im about to pa

I'm gonna go against the grain and say Treasure Planet.

Don't get me wrong, I also love Atlantis, but Treasure Planet (less everything to do with the stupid fucking robot) takes the cake. Yes its just a re-setting that largely beat-for-beat follows the book, but that's fine, its an adaptation. It's well paced, none of the characters feel "wasted" and the cast is reasonably sized (god DAMN that robot though, it drags the movie from 10/10 to 8/10).

Atlantis on the other hand is horribly paced. The lead up to the departure on the submarine through the destruction of the sub feels rapid fire, then the movie slogs through the caves introducing a bunch of characters who mostly depart from the movie and whose introduction does nothing except make it feel "disappointing" when they side against Milo later (but we don't spend any of this time on the villain characters or really any foreshadowing of their betrayal). Finally we get to Atlantis, introduce *more* characters, then the betrayal and confrontation happens at a rapid pace again. The movie is a mess. It looks gorgeous, and some of the characters are fun, but its just... chaotic.

I think people were just plain sick of that formula. People forget, but part of the reason the original Shrek was so popular was that it was a direct middle-finger to that entire "Disney Renaissance" formula (that was followed by all non-disney studios as well) that had monopolized western animation for the past decade. It was saying what everyone had been thinking. Shrek is essentially just a straight hour and a half of calling out specific Disney cliches. To truly appreciate Shrek 1 you have to immerse yourself in that end of 90's context. It's also why Shrek 1 is actually a genuinely great film with real artistry behind it, It did to family animation what Airplane! did to disaster films.

I wonder - if those movies would be produced today, would they still flop? Honest question.

You don't have to be one of "any" people to think it retarded that the only person who could work ancient technology would be the one foreigner, while said tech was being used by the same people who are currently living in that city.
The movie really shot itself in the foot with the long life of the atlantideans, because the princess was a young woman and she, too, was around when the city went underwater and that tech was still in use. Imagine what the equivalent of a middle aged guy would know, even her father who we still see alive in the movie was already old before atlantis went under, am I just supposed to believe all these people "forgot" how to read?
And let's not even talk about the disgusting depiction of linguistics, the atlantideans should speak something like a common root language the explorers can understand, not be able to understand every other language. And what the fuck is up with how translating is depicted, like you just swap letters with weird symbols and get the same exact sentence structure.
Shit movie, get a scientific advisor.

Of course they would. CG kid protagonists with big eyes and giant heads are what sell now. The only reason Spider-Verse is doing well is thanks to all the established characters and branding Marvel fans can geek out over.

Expect Forgotten Island to underperform, followed by a Boss Baby 3 announcement.

Even as a kid I understood it was retarded that Ireland and Iceland have equally similar names in ancient Atlantean as they do in current English right down to the letters.
Mainly because I'm an ESL and that's not even true in my language.

i fear that this may turn the same as Rio 2. with Milo being sidelined to in order to push the new native Atlantean chad and bait a possible love triangle.
i hope I'm wrong but with these woke writers nobody knows.

Aren't they married in Canon? Why would they even try a love triangle?
