  • When space galleon cabin boy Jim Hawkins discovers a map to an intergalactic "loot of a thousand worlds," a cyborg cook named John Silver teaches him to battle supernovas and space storms. But, soon, Jim realizes Silver is a pirate intent on mutiny! Despite the film being a flop on release, Treasure Planet, just shows that some amazingly great films just aren't appreciated for their time.

      Saddest thing is that this movie is actually the movie the 2 main artists really wanted to make, but had to negotiate by promising to do other movies first to be allowed to do this one. And you can really tell they put their heart & soul into this one. The movie may have "flopped" in the cinemas but i have no doubt they made millions/billions on merch alone. Especially the games as it released at the exact technological monent (im sure Harry Potter also gained MASSIVELY from this). Like im pretty sure this movie was my first ever DVD movie purchase. Then there was the next-gen shift in consoles as well. Like this movie had both a playstation 1 & playstation 2 game & launched on even the smallest handheld etc. And games back then was kinda cheap small team efford so massive profits. Then there is all the physical merch too.

    The reason Treasure Planet flopped could make a documentary. In fact, I think there were a few TH-camrs who did just that. There are so many parts that probably all contributed to it.
    The main theory is that Disney intentionally sabotaged the film. the evidence is convincing... Especially if you believe that Disney is not above shady stuff like that.
    it also took a very, very long time to get to theaters. it was meant to be a 90's movie. but by the time it was all said and done, it had gove over schedule and over budget. It just wasn't as fresh and new of an idea as it had been...people were getting tired of the Dinsey formula, and that's why Pixar and Dreamworks movies exploded.
    Also, it was up against Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets. I personally remember going to the theater to watch Harry Potter, I never even noticed Treasure Planet. IT was also up against The Muppets Christmas movie and Die Another Day.

    "Look at you! Glowing like a solar fire. You're something special, Jim. You're gonna rattle the stars, you are!"
    Fun Fact: Dame Emma Thompson was pregnant during several recording sessions, which is how Captain Amelia turned out at the end of this movie.
    Disney Cinematic Universe Fact: When Jim's (Austin Majors) mother (Laurie Metcalf) sits with him on his bed to read his book, on his bookshelf, there is a Stitch doll in an astronaut suit.
    What Script Fact: The contest between Jim (Joseph Gordon-Levitt) and Silver (Brain Murphy), each coaxing Morph (Dane A. Davis) to come to them so they could obtain the map, was ad-libbed.
    Cameos Cameos Fact: When Jim (Joseph Gordon-Levitt) and Dr. Doppler (David Hyde Pierce) arrives at the space-port, they get directions from two characters using a ladder. These are caricatures of directors John Musker (at the top of the ladder) and Ron Clements (holding the bottom of the ladder).
    Animation Technical Breakthrough Fact: The humanoid characters are all hand-drawn. John Silver's (Brain Murphy) cyborg leg, arm, eye, and the robot B.E.N. (Martin Short) are flat-rendered CGI. The ship was created using Disney's "Deep Canvas" process, something that is beyond the scope of this comment to explain. In some scenes, all three types of animation appear simultaneously.

    I love how they handled the story telling. Whoever read the original already knows that Silver and the crew will turn on the rest for the treasure, so they out this "plot twist" early on. Instead they bring the story of Jim and Silver's relationship, which wasn't as prominent in Treasure Island (iirc, it's been a while). They keep with the cardinal rule of movie adaption - if you're going to re-tell an old story, make sure you have something new to say.
    Also, as a child of the 90s', I missed out on this movie in theaters, but had a DVD copy which I watched so much it started skipping permanently, and cartoon Jim Hawkins was one of my earliest crushes 😁

      Disney had concluded that the art style used in Tarzan (the vine sliding scene) and then in this movie's production were too expensive and they had some internal company politics so making this movie a failure also served to make certain figures look bad while allowing others to shine.
      Basically Disney was starting to get too bloated as a company back then and was looking for cost saving measure back then. That's why they refuse to do anything not CGI anymore.

    TP, Pagemaster and The secret Of Nihm were movies I watched on repeat as a kid.
    The VHS tapes are physically impossible to use now because of how worn out they got.
    What's weird to me is how all of those movies more or less flopped.
    I can't help but think that it was a marketing slip up, because the movies themselves are way better than the vast majority of the kids movies that came out then and since.
    And they taught valuable lessons to kids. And didn't "talk down" to kids either.
    As a boy whith both a lack of a father figure, a nerdy disposition and a metric tonne of mental health issues; Treasure Planet and Pagemaster both hit home for me.
    Along with The Hunchback of Notre Dame and Beauty and the Beast. I saw myself in both Quasimodo and Beast, so no surprise there.
    My parents divorced when I was a toddler and my biological father wasn't part of my childhood.
    They both blame eachother for that so I've no way to factually tell who's in the right. I was too young to remember, after all.
    Which left me frustrated and angry with both of them which turned into bitterness and resentment and kind of wrecked my relationship with both.

However i also loved the muted ylow burn relationship between the Doctor and the Captain as well and even started writing fanfiction to fill in the gaps. I'm still working on fanfiction on the film over 20 years later. Now that Im older and about the age of the adults in this film, I've begun to lean more on their perspective in the tale rather than Jim's, but i still love that he gave him that guidance that lead him to Captain Amelia's recommendation to the academy.

    This flop because it came out at a bad time. When it came out live action and 3D movies were popular and so this one passed with low sales on teathers. That's the only why it flopped, the rest are deserving of a hidden gem, a good story, awesome steampunk ambient, a great message, great music, lovable characters and a unique animation, with CGI on top of hand drawn animation. Silver is the combination of both, his organic parts are hand drawn and his cybernetic parts are pure CGI.
    As a fun fact, they tried Silver's arm on top of a saved animation of Captain Hook from Peter Pan. So deep within Disney's archives there's a cyborg Captain Hook.

    Well, not just kids should have gone and seen it when it came out, Disney movies are, imho, aimed at adults just as much as at kids, if not more so. There are often jokes and references in animated movies that go right over the heads of most kids, for example the Jaws reference in this movie. References to older movies or pop culture that clearly are meant for nostalgic adults. And that "subtle" hint that captain Amelia is a domme, who also likes to be dominated. I love animated movies with so much money, time, and talent put into them, that it's obvious that they are more than mere "kids movies" and I have heard more than one reactor say that they get them a lot more when rewatching them as adults. Most of the people doing reactions to movies by for example Disney, Pixar, and DreamWorks are in fact adults, I almost never see any kids or parents with kids do reactions to these movies when searching for reactions, and the adults reacting to them always seem to love them, regardless if they watched the movie as kids, or if it's the first time. I love animated movies, and I haven't been a kid for a loooong time 😆If some people think I'm being childish for loving animated movies, that's a them problem.
    Sure, I get that Disney is targeting kids, so that they can annoy their parents into buying toys and merch, but honestly, while the toys and merch from the movies are for kids, and they like the movies on a superficial level, you probably have to be an adult to get the whole picture they are trying to paint.

    That is probably one of the greatest movie Walt Disney studios ever made. The adventure, the visuals, the characters’ development, great music score and the respective songs fit without being a musical. It has twists well executed the audience knows the villain and not the protagonist unlike today’s movies you don’t feel ridiculed but still betrayed , not centered around but the bonds between Jim and silver is half the movie. This is Musker and Clements passion and IT SHOWS. Too bad Disney sacrificed this high potential franchise for the cheaper and faster 3d animation. This is my favorite and go to Disney film and helped through tough times.

    13:46 Actually, Jim's father didn't just abandon his family for no reason, and he's probably dead since he didn't come back.
    To explain myself, in the sources about this movie, I found out a long time ago that Jim's father was in some space army, and when we see him leaving in Jim's memory here, Jim's father got a call to come back, and Jim's mother probably cried because her husband recently came back, and he has to go again because he was urgently called away, leaving his family and probably perishing somewhere.
    This is from my recollection from a reliable sources, who confirmed this (not sure how well I remember the details, but I know it was a military call or space navy, or something), and of course I wish the movie had shown more, or at least explained the scenes a little better of the past.

    the reason why it was a flop is supposedly right before the movie was done the studio and the family that controls the rights to the original story (treasure Island) came to an argument and as the story goes they then focused there advertising on other movies that were coming out at the time and only showed it in the minimum amount of theaters to make the terms of the contract.

    It definitely should not have been a flop. But, a few factors as to why it could have been: there were a couple big movies in the theater at the time including Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets. Also, the marketing was poor it was as if the powers that be didn't want it to be successful. Perhaps the themes presented were a bit before its time, as well. Regardless, it has stood the test of time and I'm sure it has made some residuals since then.

    Treasure Planet did a lot of more unique things. The father was neglectful and straight up just abandoned his family instead of dying, Jim and Silver's relationship is the driving force of the movie, and Silver stands out among most Disney baddies as an anti-villain and despite being initially set up at the main villain is actually not the main threat as that goes to Scroop. People sometimes wonder which side of Silver is real and which is him pretending, and I say both but his ruthless side is more played up. It's easier for a good guy to act bad than a bad guy to act good.

  • @RoanRat
    @RoanRat 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Yeah, this is a great movie. Certainly cutting edge with the meshing of computer and more traditional styles of animation (if I'm remembering correctly.) As ither mentioned it was released around the time of Chamber of Secrets, which pulled a lot of attention from it. I'm trying to remember, because I also did not go see it in the theater. If I am remembering correctly, the advertising for it just didn't grab my interest. As a retelling / modified version of treasure island, it just fell into the, "I can catch it sometime later" category for me. Which it didn't deserve.

  • @brookerickettson4950

    This film is definitely worth more than it’s box office $! Unfortunately it had a few big things against it. Including but not limited to, basically sabotage by the Disney Executives( the boss at the time never wanted to do Treasure Is. and butted heads with the creative team that did. As. Result, there was very little advertisement and whether planed or not, the release weekend went up against some uber popular films, I think too the time of year was bad for adventure films. The animation, while brilliant, was super expensive to do to blend all the affects and techniques, and since it didn’t preform well, see previous, the executives took it as a sign to not invest in the blending technology and they chased after CG.
    But the fans know it’s worth, and its popularity continues to grow!

    Because disney set it up to bob Iger hates animators these animators pushed for thisFilm for a decade and got it begrudgingly.
    I remember the awful commercials that sold this as a fart filled comedy. And showed nothing of marrit. They set it up to fail at the box office!
    Im hapoy to see disney up in smoke and im sure Walt himself is glad its going under as this is certainly not his vision. Were his legacy was bought out from his family, and the animators were made to march the plank, and studios puppeteered on strings at death.

  • @stephanginther9051

    Why was it a flop? Internal politics at Disney. Same reason Atlantis The Lost Empire was. The executives were all gung ho to switch to 3D animation as the standard for everything and these two movies were some of the last hand drawn ones they made. The people pushing 3D didn't *want* these movies to succeed because that might hamper the switch. So they basically didn't advertise properly....or so I heard.

    This movie flopped due to self sabotage from Disney. The software that made the 3D portions of the movie were extremely expensive to use. On top of that, this movie was only allowed to be made because the producers wanted this movie made as payment for doing a different film. One of the Directors didn't like this producer, and so screwed up the promoting of the film. All the characters were spoiled in the cutscenes. Thus people didn't go out to watch it since the entire premise of the movie was given away. With the extra cost of the software, and the Sabotage, the movie made the record loss for Disney. Thus becoming 'Disney's Biggest Flop'.
