I know this is off topic but, can you please react to Dolphin tail, It’s a feel-good and inspiring movie. It’s a true story about a dolphin named Winter.🐬
Also someone has probably already explained this - but the king's eyes are that way because of the flash from the crystal at the beginning. He told Kida to hide her eyes and look away, but didn't follow his own advice and was blinded.
The bracelet in the end was actually from Kida. Her mother was holding her hand when she was pulled to the Crystal, and brought the bracelet along. It's there to show they have been together while Kida was in the Crystal 💙💙
I don’t care if Disney doesn’t consider it, but Kida is one of my favorite princess, because of her personality and sth that I loved is the fact that it doesn’t have the cliche kiss with Milo because they barely know each other. A great movie, and so underrated by Disney. P.S: My favorite aside from Milo and Kida, is Vinnie; he is just simply hilarious and sarcastic
@@adolphaselrah9506 It didn't have good enough income (partly because of huge budget cuts in the middle, and partly because Disney didn't hype it), I guess? Everyone knows princesses can't be poor :P basis: th-cam.com/video/tvR9Zdp74fY/w-d-xo.html
The man who dismisses Milo at the beginning was voiced by David Ogden Stiers; Governor Ratcliffe in Pocahontas, Dr. Jumba Jookiba in Lilo & Stitch, the Archdeacon in Hunchback of Notre Dame and Cogsworth in Beauty and the Beast, amongst many other roles.
The king was voiced by the famous Leonard Nimoy. Fun Fact: In Kingdom Hearts, he voiced the villain Xehanort while Mark Hamill voiced Eraqus. So it was literally Star Trek vs. Star Wars.
i absolutely adore the animation style in this movie. they were inspired by comic books, specifically mike mignola who drew hellboy, and even got him to work on the film! they also wanted to make a departure from what was considered classic disney, so there's no songs and a much more mature tone to this movie than the ones before it, which is part of why it wasn't an initial success at the box office. but i'm so glad that they got to make this the way they wanted to, because especially animation wise, it's so unique and milo is such a good protagonist. loved the reaction as always!
I have always loved this movie, it's a shame it doesn't make any sense and has a giant plot hole like a palace, in fact it makes no sense the whole story of kida worried about dying Atlantis, because when she was little Atlantis was flourishing and everyone could read and writing and her father was there with her when it all happened, and he is still alive as are the other elders and adults of Atlantis so the fact that they cannot read and write makes absolutely no sense because all the other survivors could have passed on everything and kida says she is 8800 years old so the movie doesn't make sense, how sad. If I think it was supposed to be a huge 3 hour movie and then they cut everything and redid the plot, how sad, it's a huge plot mistake that ruins the whole movie. This final version of movie is never be what they want to do
@@NightLunaLia I'm not sure but I think I didn't see any old men except Kida's father. And king is blind so can't teach someone to read. And it's spend many thousands of years they live under the ground and they should to just survive - they don't needed science and books etc. So only Kida (and maybe few another enthusiasts) worried about dying Atlantis... I see it like this. Not so big plot mistake in my opinion... :) And... you know... it is an animated movie... :) And I love this movie very much anyway :) (English is not my native language, sorry for mistakes)
@@nansyraccoon7095 no is giant,there are MANY adults there and you don't forgot how read and write,just passed 8000 years and the father was already old,how many years he could have LIVED? No is a plot hole like a house and also disney creators of atlantis know that
The king is blind because he looked at Kida's mother when she merged into the crystals. He told kida to shield her eyes, but he himself could not tear away his eyes in the moment he lost his wife
I also thought there was an implication that the king was being punished by the Crystal. He himself said the initial disaster was his own fault, and that he was blinded with arrogance, since he tried to use the Crystal as a weapon. So it'd make sense that the Crystal blinded him, since it's alive in its own way and the king had desecrated it. And when Milo cut Rourke with the Crystal-powered glass, it'd make sense that the Crystal would sense Rourke's darkness, destroying him by turning him into the monster he truly was all along.
One of my all-time favorite Disney movies. That submarine was the coolest thing ever when I was a little kid. xD Also fun fact, the guy who came up with the Atlantean language for this movie also came up with Star Trek's Klingon language.
God, this movie is so nostalgic to me. I actually saw this in theaters way back during my 9th birthday and boy was it amazing to see on the big screen. I also remember that my parents told the restaurant employees that it was my birthday and they sang that very cringy birthday song with tons of other people around. Thanks, mom and dad...
If I recall, that final zoom out shot is the largest animation to date. Don’t know if that’s the right term but that final shot I heard took up multiple studios since most of it was hand drawn.
The production crew on this movie had shirts that read: Atlantis, less singing, more explosions. Lol! They knew it wasn't going to be a musical this time.
didn't it also include a picture of an old roman building with a cross over it? i know that they didn't want to draw inspiration for atlantis from greek and roman architecture, since everyone did that, so they looked elsewhere for it, but i can't remember if the cross thing is a thing i made up or not
This movie is such an underrated gem in the Disney catalogue. The soundtrack is amazing and the scene where they go down to the chamber and Kida forges with the crystal is one of the most spiritually beautiful things I've ever seen. It definitely has its flaws, but there's still so much to love and Disney hasn't made anything like it since.
I have always loved this movie, it's a shame it doesn't make any sense and has a giant plot hole like a palace, in fact it makes no sense the whole story of kida worried about dying Atlantis, because when she was little Atlantis was flourishing and everyone could read and writing and her father was there with her when it all happened, and he is still alive as are the other elders and adults of Atlantis so the fact that they cannot read and write makes absolutely no sense because all the other survivors could have passed on everything and kida says she is 8800 years old so the movie doesn't make sense, how sad. If I think it was supposed to be a huge 3 hour movie and then they cut everything and redid the plot, how sad, it's a huge plot mistake that ruins the whole movie.They never wanted to do the movie like this.
I think the problem with the movie was that it was like an entire TV season merged into a movie. There were just too many moving parts, too many characters, and concepts that needed further explanation. I also felt that Atlantis itself should've been explored further. Honestly, it probably would've worked better as a TV series, with Rourke being the Big Bad or at least the Season 1 Big Bad.
This movie was my favorite as a kid. My brother and I watched it so many times we memorized it. It sparked my interest in languages and now I'm a linguistics major. But more than that, Milo being an unconvential hero (skinny, not super attractive, not great with people) and never giving up really impacted me as a kid. He isn't badass, but he's got incredible determination. I really love that. And as an adult I appreciate the movie calling out how much of what's in a museum is stolen - it's super blunt and really opened my eyes about the immorality of archaeology as a field back in the day.
I love this The person who voiced Cookie is The Late Jim Varney, who also voiced Slinky from Toy Story 1 & 2 until his death in 2001 He's also Ernest P. Worrell Check out Ernest Scared Stupid Rip to Mr. Varney and The Voice Acting Legend David Ogden Stiers aka Jumba and Closworth
I was going to post the same thing! I grew up with Jim Varney/Ernest! I looooove Ernest Scared Stupid, Ernest goes to Jail, and Ernest goes to camp (definitely in that order). Ernest Scared Stupid was so good, I really loved Jim Varney and Eartha Kit together in that movie.
Sadly critics didn’t like this film when it came out because this was after the Disney renaissance ended and they wanted songs and stuff because it was too serious
It’s mostly because the lighting behind is back is dim and the submarine attracts a majority of the audience attention. When the scene is playing we don’t look at whitmore. We are looking that the sub.
What's sad is when Kida' s father told her to look away, the bright burst of light that protected Atlantis is what caused him to become blind. Such a great movie!!
I grew up on this film, along with almost all Disney. This is one of Disney's first attempts at Sci-Fi and while not as successful as other films of its day, it has a following.
Such a shame because there were so many plans to create a franchise with this. Maybe if they made a live-action of THIS (instead of the other garbage remakes we got from Disney), it will make an impact.
One thing I love abt this movie is how it pretty much exposes children to what colonization looks like. While these guys weren’t exactly looking to take over their land, they did want to strip their resources and kill them. Best part is that these ppl seem like regular guys. Which is what those ppl were, Regular ppl. I’ve seen some ppl, like Dylan who also recently did a reaction to Atlantis, say the antagonists were generic & shallow but when your antagonists r real ppl, ur basically calling those real life ppl shallow which is pretty funny.
yeah i watched Dylan's and was confused when he called them generic. It's not like they're just Evil for Evil's Sake, they're militaristic capitalists fueling an extremely imperialist era of history. Maybe he just felt that they didn't show enough of Rourke's past (?) but i don't think that's always necessary to make a good villain. Plus the movie needed to be longer in general anyway
@@KdeeBUBBLES444 would've been better if rourke was a nationalist and the crystal was to be used as a weapon for war against the enemies of the U.S, that way when the King gives his backstory it provides a nice connection between his original motives and those of rourke. Makes the character slightly more redeemable and ties him in better with the story, aswell as the 1914 setting.
Love this movie! Mrs Packard is just the best! She's in the middle of a crisis situation, miles underwater, and what's she doing? Talking on the phone with her friend. "And he took his suitcase? Marge, honey, I don't think he's coming back." All the side characters in this movie are pretty funny, but Packard is definitely my favorite!
I saw someone commented that Mr.Whitmore crossing his fingers when he wished them good luck was a hint that he knew about Roroukes plan the whole time, but honestly I always read it as that he doubted that they would either make it to Atlantis, or make it back alive, just like he doubted Milo's grandfather before
I think "Mulan" has a bigger kill count, I mean, between Shen's dad's troops, the hun army, that village and a few more casualties, there are thousands of deaths in that movie.
@@marinacosta8835 An entire city literally sank at the opening of the movie, and it look bigger than Constantinople which had a million people at its peak.
I have always loved this movie, it's a shame it doesn't make any sense and has a giant plot hole like a palace, in fact it makes no sense the whole story of kida worried about dying Atlantis, because when she was little Atlantis was flourishing and everyone could read and writing and her father was there with her when it all happened, and he is still alive as are the other elders and adults of Atlantis so the fact that they cannot read and write makes absolutely no sense because all the other survivors could have passed on everything and kida says she is 8800 years old so the movie doesn't make sense, how sad.

Probably the Disney movie with the highest body count. Think about it. Only 2 minutes in and already almost an entire civilization gets wiped out of existence. I remember watching this and thinking: "Damn, sucks to be the folks that didn't make it inside the dome." 0_0 And add those on the journey that died. This movie really held not back.
There is a sequel to this movie (Atlantis: Milo's Return). You don't have to watch it since it's not as good as this one, but if you want to see more of the characters I recommend watching it ^^
My mother and I went to the Atlantis resort in the Bahamas 5 years ago (has it really been that long?! Sweet beans in a basket!) and it was so much like this Atlantis!!! They had a place called The Dig where it showed artifacts and parts of the city underwater with sea creatures and the leviathan sounds in the background! There was one artifact on display that looked exactly like the vehicles the Atlanteans used in the movie! It was all just so breathtaking!
Films like The Black Cauldron, Atlantis, Treasure Planet, Dinosaur. They've all reached their underrated reputations back when they first released in theaters, but seriously. Even though these Disney titles were modest hits to audiences or critics, they did explore stories that weren't limited to musical numbers as the studio is well known for in their many hit titles. You don't need it to be an animated musical all the time.
Fun fact: The actor for Vinny (Don Novello) improvised all his lines. He'd just read lines in the script once and then made up his own dialog when recording.
Milo's intro is just like how they introduce Daniel Jackson in the Stargate movie. 😂❤ and they eventually made a Stargate Atlantis spinoff show. I also binged Babylon 5 this year, and i can't unhear my familiarity with the voice actress for Helga anymore. ESPECIALLY when she reads headings and navigation jargon. Lol
I wonder what would’ve happened if Milo pulled a reverse uno when Rourke threatened Kida. Cause if he shoots her he loses his leverage, but if Milo leads him to the crystal and he takes it then she dies anyway. So why would Milo help because he certainly wouldn’t assist in genocide to save his own life?
Mostly because he had become quite attached to Kida in the time they spent together. And no matter how you look at it, watching someone get shot dead right in front of you is a powerful reason to do whatever the person with the gun wants. Even if it were a stranger, few can stomach the mere idea, let alone to witness it.
@@stormqueen29 Exactly! Plus leading them to the crystal gives Milo more time to change up the status quo and find a solution. If he gives up the crystal, Kita doesn't die immediately and he has more time to save everyone. He probably knew it was the stupider decision, but even the hope that he could find a way to save Kita probably motivated him.
Someone probably mentioned this but moles backstory is that he was raised by naked mole rats (probably underground with some gross habits) its mentioned in the direct to vhs sequel Atlantis: Milos Return. It was supposed to be a series, but after how poorly Atlantis did it was sacked.
The language of atlants was created by Marc Okrand, creator of the Klingon language in the Star Trek creators. And animation from Mike Mignola looks perfect.
Honestly Nick you are my favourite!! You are so incredibly sweet and sensitive, I love love love your movie reactions! Seriously you have the wonder of a child and I mean it in the best way!!!
Milo is voiced by Michael J Fox, whom you may know to play Marty McFly in Back to the Future series. He's one of the most inspiring people I know of, having been fighting an ongoing battle with Parkinson disease since 1991, and founded a research foundation to help find a cure and help people.
This is one of my favorite movies! I still own it on VHS! I really hope you check out The Mummy and The Mummy Returns! Both are absolute classics! ♡ love you from Hawai’i
Atlantis: The Lost Empire is yet another truly underrated masterpiece. I was fascinated by the concept that there's this fantastical kingdom deeply submerged in the depths of the ocean, and it took about a millennia for the long lost kingdom to be rediscovered and so history starts from there. Milo may seem like a lame nerd on the outside, but we later learn that there's more to him than being like that and he even gets to share a special bond with the Atlantis's princess whom I can't remember the name of, but she showed Milo all the aspects of Atlantis that are indeed valuable. That's all I can say. Seriously though, this movie deserves A LOT MORE credit than most of us would ever realize.
This is probably one of my favorite movies ever. Alongside with Treasure Planet I love watching this again and again cause you notice so much more the more you watch it. Such a fun and fantastic story and the amount of times you were in awe and so caught up in the story were great! Glad you enjoyed!!
For a live action adaptation I would caste: Andrew Garfield as Milo Chloe Bennett as Kida Steven Lang as Commander Rourke Charlize Theone as Helga Isabella Merced as Audrey Terry Crews as Dr. Sweet John Tortero as Vinnie Omija Lily as Mole Christopher Llyod as Witmore William H Macy as Cookie
@@j.43 Kida doesn't look black to me. She has olive-tanned skin which is common among Caucasianoids living around the Mediteranean, think, Arab, Berbers, and Greeks.
Easily one of the most underrated Disney films alongside Treasure Planet (which you have already watched and loved that reaction). They had a unique art style to them that was only around for a couple years and I'm hoping to see a resurgence of it in upcoming animated films.
honestly love Atlantis its such a different Disney movie its all out fantasy adventure film, no musical it just has a great score, no focus on romance, much more mature, its not your typical hot guy meets a hot girl and they immediately fall in love, its not that superficial, Milo is a great protagonist and Kida is a great princess, their relationship is awesome, the side characters are great, you have a despicable villain which you really wanna see go down and root for our guys, the story is great, the visuals are great, the action is like the best in all Disney, its unfortunate this movie just went so under the radar just cause it didnt follow the traditional Disney formula but it deserves much more praise and attention :) Im really glad you reacted to this :)
16:05-16:18 without a doubt my favorite scene of comedy in Atlantis. It even works for making memes, for example: -When you wander how much we need to approve and excel in an exam
“We’re all gonna die.” A very young me rewinded that so many times. I loved that lady so much. And then saying commander so many times. Too funny. I still can’t believe that after all these years, I didn’t know Milo was Michael J. Fox! Like heck, why didn’t I recognized him? 🤐
She is never be forgotten,she is never be part of disney princess francese because she don't respect canon for be part of it,it doesn't matter if she is princess,also the black cauldron is actually a real terrible movie. I have always loved Atlantis, it's a shame it doesn't make any sense and has a giant plot hole like a palace, in fact it makes no sense the whole story of kida worried about dying Atlantis, because when she was little Atlantis was flourishing and everyone could read and writing and her father was there with her when it all happened, and he is still alive as are the other elders and adults of Atlantis so the fact that they cannot read and write makes absolutely no sense because all the other survivors could have passed on everything and kida says she is 8800 years old so the movie doesn't make sense, how sad.

@@NightLunaLia I'm thinking, after hundreds of years, their language was lost through slang and lack of need for it. If you were suck in one place that have not use for alot of words, you'll lost those words.
The Black Cauldron is great, people like to criticize for not being as faithful to the books as it could've been, but that doesn't equal bad and most adaptations aren't completely faithful to the books anyway. Judge the movie for what it is.
Michael J. Fox, Milo. James Garner, Rourke. Claudia Christian, Packerd. Cree Summer, Kida. Jim Varney, Cookie. He passed away in 1999 before the film was released in 2001. Phil Morris, Josh Sweet. John Mahoney, Whitmore. Don Novello, Vinny. Leonard Nimoy, the Atlantean King.
I remember when I first watched this movie when I was 10. It instantly became my favorite film and even though I only saw it once I talked about it for months afterwards
I've been really waiting for this one! The story is amazing and the movie is so underrated... I would love a live action for this.. I've always watched this movies in spanish, of course, but I really enjoy these reactions, and all your commentary on them. I really think my English has improved a lot more since I watch your videos 😅 So i wanted to say an extra "thank you" for that. As always, i really gonna love this reaction! Someone probably recommended this, but i hope someday you could react to "Your Name." (Hopefully it's on your list) Wow, this is a really long message. Anyway, i just wanted to say thank you again, and I'll be waiting for the next video! ❤️ Have a nice day, Nick 😁
Michael J. Fox as Milo James Thatch is an awesome choice. Looks like Marty McFly either invested so much in his studies or he hung around with Doc Brown for so long he picked up on several things.
The art style was largely from Mike Migola (best known as the creator of HELLBOY). Frankly, I love the movie's whole visual/action look and Kida is easily one of the most underrated Disney Princesses. Honestly, I think it should've been longer (a lot of the backstory gets really pushed in together)
If you like this, there's a highly underrated Claymation masterpiece called "The Adventures of Mark Twain".. it's from the 80s. It's about Twains characters (Tom Sawyer, Huck Finn, Becky Thatcher) stowing away on his giant magic flying machine as it chases haley's comet and they go on adventues through his stories. Its fun but it's also a crash course in Twain. And it's kinda dark, in a fun way ;)
You should check out the Ernest movies. my favorite ones are Ernest Scared Stupid, Ernest Goes to Jail, and Ernest goes to Camp. Ernest is one of Jim Varney's characters, Jim plays Cookie in Atlantis: The Lost Empire. RIP to an absolute legend.
My favourite line from the 'We're all gonna die' lady apart from that line has to be from using the Leviathan attack where she's on the phone saying "He left with his suitcase? Marge honey, I don't think he's coming back. I gotta go. No, no I'll call you." Of all the times to gossip with your friends....
Disney don't ignore her,she is NOT part of franchise because she don't respect the canon rule for be part of it, and be a princess is not a rule for be part of that franchise,I have always loved this movie, it's a shame it doesn't make any sense and has a giant plot hole like a palace, in fact it makes no sense the whole story of kida worried about dying Atlantis, because when she was little Atlantis was flourishing and everyone could read and writing and her father was there with her when it all happened, and he is still alive as are the other elders and adults of Atlantis so the fact that they cannot read and write makes absolutely no sense because all the other survivors could have passed on everything and kida says she is 8800 years old so the movie doesn't make sense, how sad.

@@NightLunaLia the canon rule? Load of bull that is, if Mulan - not even a princess - and Elsa and Anna - queens for different movies - can count then Kida can count, same with Princess Elionwy the real reason they're not categorized is because the films didn't gross enough, even though the box office did turn profit, plus they never truly explored the merch value Atlantis could provide
Atlantis: The Lost Empire has always been one of my favorites as a kid/teen. I liked the story as well. Yes, I will admit that the film may have been a little too fast-paced at times. I also thought the journey to Atlantis could have possibly been cut a little short, just so we got to see more of Atlantis. I would say films like Zootopia fixed a problem like this around fifteen years later. Anyway, I also loved the side characters. They kind of remind me of the dwarves from Snow White & The Seven Dwarfs. As far as the villains, I wish that Rourke had been developed a little more, and that Helga had possibly gotten a redemption arc after Rourke betrayed her. That is even if someone were to save her, or even Milo got to Rourke before he could throw her off, or something like that. And man, yes, what an amazing score. Overall, I am one of the rare to few people who liked Atlantis: The Lost Empire a little more than say The Emperor’s New Groove (which I being that film up, since it came out six months before Atlantis). Well, great review, and looking forward to Ice Age! Oh, and on a side note, I think it’s cool that Gary Trousdale, and Kirk Wise, the same team behind Beauty & The Beast, and The Hunchback Of Notre Dame, also was the directing team for Atlantis: The Lost Empire as well. Anyway!
couldn’t have been happier with this reaction 😭😭😭 this is one of my favorite animated films, and has been since it came out. I’m so so so happy you loved most of the characters, it’s definitely one of this movie’s strengths. you can watch the sequel if you want but just know it’s 3 episodes of a failed tv show stitched into a film.
Oh BTW If you're a Cartoon Fan The Women who voice Kida is The Queen of Cartoon Voice Acting Cree Summer She Voiced Susie Carmichael(Rugrats), Elmyra(Tiny Toons), Numbah 5(Codename: KND), Cleo(Clifford The Big Red Dog), Foxxy Love(Drawn Together). This is her 1st Disney Movie Debut
Wow! I didn't remember Atlantis very well, but, good reaction! 😊 Thank you very much for your reactions !!! 🌟👍🏻 Recommendations: 1. Leap! o Ballerina (2016) 2. A monster in Paris (2011) 3. Mune: the guardian of the moon (2014). 4. Balto (1995) 5. The rise of the guardians (2012)
It was a huge bomb when it was released, and was one of the films that made Disney abandon hand drawn animation and go full CGI. It was designed by the famous Comics artist Mike Mignola (creator of Hellboy). There was another introduction that was scrapped despite the fact it was finished (it's in the bonus material from the DVD), with Vikings with the book, trying to find the city, whose Dakar was destroyed by the Leviathan. Atlantis is, apparently, the Disney animated film with the highest body count.
The animation technique was called 3D canvas, the only two other movies that used it, were treasure planet and Tarzan, it was extremely expensive and given the poor box Office for this and TP, Disney shut it down and evolved to 3D animation
@@theawesomeman9821 well, technically Pretty Woman is a Disney movie, and technically Princess Leia is a Disney princess, and her outfit in Return of the Jedi left even less to the imagination. Just sayin.
I remember seeing this at the El Capitan theatre when I was 6 and still lived in California, and then there was a giant play area and games for the kids, I remember it being so fun and having a great time!
I heard that originally the movie was gonna be like over 2 hours long with probably more explanations and in-depth dives, so who knows how it would've been received if the whole thing was approved.
AHHHHHHHHH yay :D right after dylan watched it 🤣 in case I didn’t know, the kind was voiced by Leonard nemoy, the original spock from Star Trek :D and don’t know if u ever would but even in ur own time if u haven’t u should watch Dinosaur (2000) I think it’s an underrated movie. A lot of the graphics still hold up to a point. It was my fav movie as a kid :D oh he probs wouldn’t be with Audrey cuz she’s still only a teenager and milo I believe is in his later or mid 20s and kida is… 8800 ish LOL
I also recommend he watch Dinosaur! Just like Atlantis, it has likable characters you can easily empathize with, and Nick would definitely appreciate the visuals and messages of the story.
18:44 my guess is mole is a bank robber and uses drills and shovels to destroy the floor of the banks and make a smooth getaway but didn’t last time hence the reason he had Preston whitmore bail him out!!!🥷
Hey everyone hope you enjoyed the reaction! Next up is The Martian and Ice Age! Have another surprise movie as well!
Man I wish for this movie to have a live action remake with Tom Holland as Milo
Please react to In The Heights...

Also someone has probably already explained this - but the king's eyes are that way because of the flash from the crystal at the beginning. He told Kida to hide her eyes and look away, but didn't follow his own advice and was blinded.
Omg...what if he didn't follow his own advice because he wanted to look at his wife one last time?
@@sketchnotes2246 sad :’(
I remember that from the DVD commentary. One of the directors regreted not making it overt enough, as it's not outright stated in the film itself.
I loved this film but didn't know that bit of information. Thank you
I never knew that. 😮I always thought he grew blind from old age. Thank you for sharing!
The bracelet in the end was actually from Kida. Her mother was holding her hand when she was pulled to the Crystal, and brought the bracelet along. It's there to show they have been together while Kida was in the Crystal 💙💙
I don’t care if Disney doesn’t consider it, but Kida is one of my favorite princess, because of her personality and sth that I loved is the fact that it doesn’t have the cliche kiss with Milo because they barely know each other.

The man who dismisses Milo at the beginning was voiced by David Ogden Stiers; Governor Ratcliffe in Pocahontas, Dr. Jumba Jookiba in Lilo & Stitch, the Archdeacon in Hunchback of Notre Dame and Cogsworth in Beauty and the Beast, amongst many other roles.
It's a cast full of familiar voices from film and TV, really. Leonard Nimoy is particularly notable, I think.
Don't forget Charles Emerson Winchester from MASH.
Since, 1991-2002.
The king was voiced by the famous Leonard Nimoy.
Fun Fact: In Kingdom Hearts, he voiced the villain Xehanort while Mark Hamill voiced Eraqus. So it was literally Star Trek vs. Star Wars.
That’s good to know.
RIP Nimoy.
For a further Star Trek connection, the Atlantean language was created by Marc Okrand, who created the Klingon language for Star Trek.
i absolutely adore the animation style in this movie. they were inspired by comic books, specifically mike mignola who drew hellboy, and even got him to work on the film! they also wanted to make a departure from what was considered classic disney, so there's no songs and a much more mature tone to this movie than the ones before it, which is part of why it wasn't an initial success at the box office. but i'm so glad that they got to make this the way they wanted to, because especially animation wise, it's so unique and milo is such a good protagonist. loved the reaction as always!
I have always loved this movie, it's a shame it doesn't make any sense and has a giant plot hole like a palace, in fact it makes no sense the whole story of kida worried about dying Atlantis, because when she was little Atlantis was flourishing and everyone could read and writing and her father was there with her when it all happened, and he is still alive as are the other elders and adults of Atlantis so the fact that they cannot read and write makes absolutely no sense because all the other survivors could have passed on everything and kida says she is 8800 years old so the movie doesn't make sense, how sad. If I think it was supposed to be a huge 3 hour movie and then they cut everything and redid the plot, how sad, it's a huge plot mistake that ruins the whole movie. This final version of movie is never be what they want to do
@@NightLunaLia I'm not sure but I think I didn't see any old men except Kida's father. And king is blind so can't teach someone to read. And it's spend many thousands of years they live under the ground and they should to just survive - they don't needed science and books etc. So only Kida (and maybe few another enthusiasts) worried about dying Atlantis... I see it like this. Not so big plot mistake in my opinion... :) And... you know... it is an animated movie... :) And I love this movie very much anyway :) (English is not my native language, sorry for mistakes)
@@nansyraccoon7095 no is giant,there are MANY adults there and you don't forgot how read and write,just passed 8000 years and the father was already old,how many years he could have LIVED? No is a plot hole like a house and also disney creators of atlantis know that
The king is blind because he looked at Kida's mother when she merged into the crystals. He told kida to shield her eyes, but he himself could not tear away his eyes in the moment he lost his wife
I also thought there was an implication that the king was being punished by the Crystal. He himself said the initial disaster was his own fault, and that he was blinded with arrogance, since he tried to use the Crystal as a weapon. So it'd make sense that the Crystal blinded him, since it's alive in its own way and the king had desecrated it. And when Milo cut Rourke with the Crystal-powered glass, it'd make sense that the Crystal would sense Rourke's darkness, destroying him by turning him into the monster he truly was all along.
21:39 Pretty sure Mole was saying “Voulez-vous couched avec moi?” which means “do you want to sleep with me?” That’s why she punched him
Creole Lady Marmalade
HOLY CRAP
Omg
Say what now?! No wonder Kida punched him.
Yeah, that's what I thought. It's kinda the most basic french sentence i guess cuz it was in that song with Christina Aguilera too
One of my all-time favorite Disney movies. That submarine was the coolest thing ever when I was a little kid. xD
Also fun fact, the guy who came up with the Atlantean language for this movie also came up with Star Trek's Klingon language.
Cool.
Huh...so that's why they brought on Leonard Nimoy to voice the king...
God, this movie is so nostalgic to me. I actually saw this in theaters way back during my 9th birthday and boy was it amazing to see on the big screen. I also remember that my parents told the restaurant employees that it was my birthday and they sang that very cringy birthday song with tons of other people around. Thanks, mom and dad...
Me too, but I was 4 years old when, this movie came out.
That's so cute haha
@@xapokalypse You have no idea how much I hated it. XD Back then I despised being the center of attention, especially in public.
If I recall, that final zoom out shot is the largest animation to date. Don’t know if that’s the right term but that final shot I heard took up multiple studios since most of it was hand drawn.
The production crew on this movie had shirts that read: Atlantis, less singing, more explosions. Lol! They knew it wasn't going to be a musical this time.
didn't it also include a picture of an old roman building with a cross over it? i know that they didn't want to draw inspiration for atlantis from greek and roman architecture, since everyone did that, so they looked elsewhere for it, but i can't remember if the cross thing is a thing i made up or not
Every time a Disney crew goes that way, the film ends up being a financial flop. The same thing happened with the Black Cauldron.
This movie is such an underrated gem in the Disney catalogue. The soundtrack is amazing and the scene where they go down to the chamber and Kida forges with the crystal is one of the most spiritually beautiful things I've ever seen. It definitely has its flaws, but there's still so much to love and Disney hasn't made anything like it since.
I have always loved this movie, it's a shame it doesn't make any sense and has a giant plot hole like a palace, in fact it makes no sense the whole story of kida worried about dying Atlantis, because when she was little Atlantis was flourishing and everyone could read and writing and her father was there with her when it all happened, and he is still alive as are the other elders and adults of Atlantis so the fact that they cannot read and write makes absolutely no sense because all the other survivors could have passed on everything and kida says she is 8800 years old so the movie doesn't make sense, how sad. If I think it was supposed to be a huge 3 hour movie and then they cut everything and redid the plot, how sad, it's a huge plot mistake that ruins the whole movie.They never wanted to do the movie like this.
I think the problem with the movie was that it was like an entire TV season merged into a movie. There were just too many moving parts, too many characters, and concepts that needed further explanation. I also felt that Atlantis itself should've been explored further. Honestly, it probably would've worked better as a TV series, with Rourke being the Big Bad or at least the Season 1 Big Bad.
This movie was my favorite as a kid. My brother and I watched it so many times we memorized it. It sparked my interest in languages and now I'm a linguistics major. But more than that, Milo being an unconvential hero (skinny, not super attractive, not great with people) and never giving up really impacted me as a kid. He isn't badass, but he's got incredible determination. I really love that. And as an adult I appreciate the movie calling out how much of what's in a museum is stolen - it's super blunt and really opened my eyes about the immorality of archaeology as a field back in the day.
I love this
The person who voiced Cookie is The Late Jim Varney, who also voiced Slinky from Toy Story 1 & 2 until his death in 2001
He's also Ernest P. Worrell
Check out Ernest Scared Stupid
Rip to Mr. Varney and The Voice Acting Legend David Ogden Stiers aka Jumba and Closworth
I was going to post the same thing! I grew up with Jim Varney/Ernest! I looooove Ernest Scared Stupid, Ernest goes to Jail, and Ernest goes to camp (definitely in that order). Ernest Scared Stupid was so good, I really loved Jim Varney and Eartha Kit together in that movie.
I loved him as slinky. But the only Ernest movie I like was the Christmas one. Personal taste, I guess.
@@sphynxmagg7256 me too.
@@applebrush7600 so am I.
Sadly critics didn’t like this film when it came out because this was after the Disney renaissance ended and they wanted songs and stuff because it was too serious
9:12 Why is it only now that I noticed that Mr. Whitmore crossed his fingers behind his back while giving them a thumbs up when sending them off??
Same! I've seen this movie a dozen times and JUST noticed.
It’s mostly because the lighting behind is back is dim and the submarine attracts a majority of the audience attention. When the scene is playing we don’t look at whitmore. We are looking that the sub.
What's sad is when Kida' s father told her to look away, the bright burst of light that protected Atlantis is what caused him to become blind. Such a great movie!!
I grew up on this film, along with almost all Disney. This is one of Disney's first attempts at Sci-Fi and while not as successful as other films of its day, it has a following.
Such a shame because there were so many plans to create a franchise with this. Maybe if they made a live-action of THIS (instead of the other garbage remakes we got from Disney), it will make an impact.
One thing I love abt this movie is how it pretty much exposes children to what colonization looks like. While these guys weren’t exactly looking to take over their land, they did want to strip their resources and kill them. Best part is that these ppl seem like regular guys. Which is what those ppl were, Regular ppl. I’ve seen some ppl, like Dylan who also recently did a reaction to Atlantis, say the antagonists were generic & shallow but when your antagonists r real ppl, ur basically calling those real life ppl shallow which is pretty funny.
yeah i watched Dylan's and was confused when he called them generic. It's not like they're just Evil for Evil's Sake, they're militaristic capitalists fueling an extremely imperialist era of history. Maybe he just felt that they didn't show enough of Rourke's past (?) but i don't think that's always necessary to make a good villain. Plus the movie needed to be longer in general anyway
@@KdeeBUBBLES444 would've been better if rourke was a nationalist and the crystal was to be used as a weapon for war against the enemies of the U.S, that way when the King gives his backstory it provides a nice connection between his original motives and those of rourke. Makes the character slightly more redeemable and ties him in better with the story, aswell as the 1914 setting.
Milo is literally the animated version of Dr Daniel Jackson from Stargate SG-1. It's actually funny how similar their personal stories are.
D'oh!
Just left this comment myself. 😂
You’re the only person I’ve seen react to this who didn’t want mole to “accidentally on purpose get killed”
Vinnie is my fav char in this movie. Dude just hits all the right moments with some comedy
I remember watching this on the theaters. It was A-M-A-Z-I-N-G.
Seriously, that scene where they first find the heart and Kida gets possessed up on the big screen was just jaw dropping to me as a kid.
Love this movie!
Mrs Packard is just the best!
She's in the middle of a crisis situation, miles underwater, and what's she doing?
Talking on the phone with her friend.
"And he took his suitcase? Marge, honey, I don't think he's coming back."
All the side characters in this movie are pretty funny, but Packard is definitely my favorite!
I saw someone commented that Mr.Whitmore crossing his fingers when he wished them good luck was a hint that he knew about Roroukes plan the whole time, but honestly I always read it as that he doubted that they would either make it to Atlantis, or make it back alive, just like he doubted Milo's grandfather before
This movie is what made me love stories when I watched it as a kid!!
It is literally why I love animation and film.
I swear, every time Milo talks I can only think of Homeward Bound's Chance being played by Michael J Fox. Can't help it.
Wow, that's a throw-back! Forgot he voiced that character!
Me too.
@@blitzgirl6522 so am I.
So many deaths, I think this film killed more people than all other animated Disney films combined.
I think "Mulan" has a bigger kill count, I mean, between Shen's dad's troops, the hun army, that village and a few more casualties, there are thousands of deaths in that movie.
@@marinacosta8835 An entire city literally sank at the opening of the movie, and it look bigger than Constantinople which had a million people at its peak.
I think Atlantis the Lost Empire is one of the most underrated Disney movies ever. Loved watching ur reaction to this!
I think that it's underrated but very mediocre.
I have always loved this movie, it's a shame it doesn't make any sense and has a giant plot hole like a palace, in fact it makes no sense the whole story of kida worried about dying Atlantis, because when she was little Atlantis was flourishing and everyone could read and writing and her father was there with her when it all happened, and he is still alive as are the other elders and adults of Atlantis so the fact that they cannot read and write makes absolutely no sense because all the other survivors could have passed on everything and kida says she is 8800 years old so the movie doesn't make sense, how sad.

29:06 You synced with that line perfectly! XD
Probably the Disney movie with the highest body count. Think about it.
Only 2 minutes in and already almost an entire civilization gets wiped out of existence.
I remember watching this and thinking: "Damn, sucks to be the folks that didn't make it inside the dome." 0_0
And add those on the journey that died. This movie really held not back.
This needs to be a drinks Challenge with shots every time he uses the word “Amazing”.
Do you just WANT to give people alcohol poisoning?
There is a sequel to this movie (Atlantis: Milo's Return). You don't have to watch it since it's not as good as this one, but if you want to see more of the characters I recommend watching it ^^
It was lame. Honestly, the unproduced spin-off series and original sequel sounded way more interesting than what we got.
My mother and I went to the Atlantis resort in the Bahamas 5 years ago (has it really been that long?! Sweet beans in a basket!) and it was so much like this Atlantis!!! They had a place called The Dig where it showed artifacts and parts of the city underwater with sea creatures and the leviathan sounds in the background! There was one artifact on display that looked exactly like the vehicles the Atlanteans used in the movie! It was all just so breathtaking!
Would love to see you react to a goofy movie(1996) :)
Absolutely! 😍
Films like The Black Cauldron, Atlantis, Treasure Planet, Dinosaur. They've all reached their underrated reputations back when they first released in theaters, but seriously.
Even though these Disney titles were modest hits to audiences or critics, they did explore stories that weren't limited to musical numbers as the studio is well known for in their many hit titles. You don't need it to be an animated musical all the time.
Fun fact: The actor for Vinny (Don Novello) improvised all his lines. He'd just read lines in the script once and then made up his own dialog when recording.
Milo's intro is just like how they introduce Daniel Jackson in the Stargate movie. 😂❤ and they eventually made a Stargate Atlantis spinoff show.
I also binged Babylon 5 this year, and i can't unhear my familiarity with the voice actress for Helga anymore. ESPECIALLY when she reads headings and navigation jargon. Lol
One of Disney's greatest films. They need to make attractions at the Theme Parks.
you are such a genuine person. watching your videos always make me smile (:
I wonder what would’ve happened if Milo pulled a reverse uno when Rourke threatened Kida. Cause if he shoots her he loses his leverage, but if Milo leads him to the crystal and he takes it then she dies anyway. So why would Milo help because he certainly wouldn’t assist in genocide to save his own life?
Mostly because he had become quite attached to Kida in the time they spent together. And no matter how you look at it, watching someone get shot dead right in front of you is a powerful reason to do whatever the person with the gun wants. Even if it were a stranger, few can stomach the mere idea, let alone to witness it.
@@stormqueen29 Exactly! Plus leading them to the crystal gives Milo more time to change up the status quo and find a solution. If he gives up the crystal, Kita doesn't die immediately and he has more time to save everyone. He probably knew it was the stupider decision, but even the hope that he could find a way to save Kita probably motivated him.
Someone probably mentioned this but moles backstory is that he was raised by naked mole rats (probably underground with some gross habits) its mentioned in the direct to vhs sequel Atlantis: Milos Return. It was supposed to be a series, but after how poorly Atlantis did it was sacked.
The language of atlants was created by Marc Okrand, creator of the Klingon language in the Star Trek creators. And animation from Mike Mignola looks perfect.
Such an underrated Disney classic! They don't even have Kida in the Disney Princess line!
Honestly Nick you are my favourite!! You are so incredibly sweet and sensitive, I love love love your movie reactions! Seriously you have the wonder of a child and I mean it in the best way!!!
I loved this movie as a kid. Still do.
this movie and emperors new groove are my favorite Disney moviess
Milo is voiced by Michael J Fox, whom you may know to play Marty McFly in Back to the Future series. He's one of the most inspiring people I know of, having been fighting an ongoing battle with Parkinson disease since 1991, and founded a research foundation to help find a cure and help people.
This is one of the most underrated Disney movies ever.
This is one of my favorite movies! I still own it on VHS! I really hope you check out The Mummy and The Mummy Returns! Both are absolute classics! ♡ love you from Hawai’i
Atlantis: The Lost Empire is yet another truly underrated masterpiece. I was fascinated by the concept that there's this fantastical kingdom deeply submerged in the depths of the ocean, and it took about a millennia for the long lost kingdom to be rediscovered and so history starts from there. Milo may seem like a lame nerd on the outside, but we later learn that there's more to him than being like that and he even gets to share a special bond with the Atlantis's princess whom I can't remember the name of, but she showed Milo all the aspects of Atlantis that are indeed valuable. That's all I can say. Seriously though, this movie deserves A LOT MORE credit than most of us would ever realize.
One of my favorite underrated animated Disney films!
Sad fact: the movie sadly failed at the box office. I think it still made it to the 20 highest-grossing animated movies in the world
This is probably one of my favorite movies ever. Alongside with Treasure Planet I love watching this again and again cause you notice so much more the more you watch it.
Such a fun and fantastic story and the amount of times you were in awe and so caught up in the story were great! Glad you enjoyed!!
The part with the statues creating a barrier is still one of the most awesome things i've seen.
For a live action adaptation I would caste:
Andrew Garfield as Milo
Chloe Bennett as Kida
Steven Lang as Commander Rourke
Charlize Theone as Helga
Isabella Merced as Audrey
Terry Crews as Dr. Sweet
John Tortero as Vinnie
Omija Lily as Mole
Christopher Llyod as Witmore
William H Macy as Cookie
I think you mean Chloe Bailey
@@j.43 I still prefer Chloe Bennett over Bailey for playing Kida but respect your opinion.
@@theawesomeman9821 how?, Kida is black, Chloe Bennet is not, she's half white and half Asian.
@@j.43 Kida doesn't look black to me. She has olive-tanned skin which is common among Caucasianoids living around the Mediteranean, think, Arab, Berbers, and Greeks.
I love this movie and Kida is my favorite Disney Princess (even if she isn't categorized as such) but I DO NOT recommend watching the sequel.
Do not remind me of the sequel.
I regret buying the sequel after 5 years and yet to watch it to this day. Read the synopsis on Wikipedia, disappointment was immeasurable.
Easily one of the most underrated Disney films alongside Treasure Planet (which you have already watched and loved that reaction). They had a unique art style to them that was only around for a couple years and I'm hoping to see a resurgence of it in upcoming animated films.
honestly love Atlantis its such a different Disney movie its all out fantasy adventure film, no musical it just has a great score, no focus on romance, much more mature, its not your typical hot guy meets a hot girl and they immediately fall in love, its not that superficial, Milo is a great protagonist and Kida is a great princess, their relationship is awesome, the side characters are great, you have a despicable villain which you really wanna see go down and root for our guys, the story is great, the visuals are great, the action is like the best in all Disney, its unfortunate this movie just went so under the radar just cause it didnt follow the traditional Disney formula but it deserves much more praise and attention :) Im really glad you reacted to this :)
I was avoiding this movie but as Soon as I watched it I was hooked
#pleasereactto
Life of Pi. It's very visually stunning and I'd love to hear your thoughts on it. :D
Yes!!! You would love this movie @nickflick #pleasereactto life of pi!!
@NickFlix please react to it 💜
16:05-16:18 without a doubt my favorite scene of comedy in Atlantis.
It even works for making memes, for example:
-When you wander how much we need to approve and excel in an exam
“We’re all gonna die.” A very young me rewinded that so many times. I loved that lady so much. And then saying commander so many times. Too funny. I still can’t believe that after all these years, I didn’t know Milo was Michael J. Fox! Like heck, why didn’t I recognized him? 🤐
Please add Dinosaur to your roster of forgotten Disney movies! It's such a nostalgic movie for me, but almost nobody ever talks about it!
I love the voice acting in this. Especially Helga (voiced by Claudia Christian, who repeatedly broke my heart in Babylon 5).
Introducing Milo Hatch, an archaeological explorer who, with the help of his crew, seek the lost city of Atlantis
Now try looking at the other forgotten Disney Princess movie: The Black Cauldron
I got traumatized for life with that movie, he needs to see it 😂
She is never be forgotten,she is never be part of disney princess francese because she don't respect canon for be part of it,it doesn't matter if she is princess,also the black cauldron is actually a real terrible movie. I have always loved Atlantis, it's a shame it doesn't make any sense and has a giant plot hole like a palace, in fact it makes no sense the whole story of kida worried about dying Atlantis, because when she was little Atlantis was flourishing and everyone could read and writing and her father was there with her when it all happened, and he is still alive as are the other elders and adults of Atlantis so the fact that they cannot read and write makes absolutely no sense because all the other survivors could have passed on everything and kida says she is 8800 years old so the movie doesn't make sense, how sad. If I think it was supposed to be a huge 3 hour movie and then they cut everything and redid the plot, how sad, it's a huge plot mistake that ruins the whole movie.
@@NightLunaLia I'm thinking, after hundreds of years, their language was lost through slang and lack of need for it. If you were suck in one place that have not use for alot of words, you'll lost those words.
If only Disney followed the source material... wait they very rarely do.
The Black Cauldron is great, people like to criticize for not being as faithful to the books as it could've been, but that doesn't equal bad and most adaptations aren't completely faithful to the books anyway. Judge the movie for what it is.
React to Peter Jackson's "The Frighteners 1996".. starring Michael J. Fox
Michael J. Fox, Milo.
James Garner, Rourke.
Claudia Christian, Packerd.
Cree Summer, Kida.
Jim Varney, Cookie. He passed away in 1999 before the film was released in 2001.
Phil Morris, Josh Sweet.
John Mahoney, Whitmore.
Don Novello, Vinny.
Leonard Nimoy, the Atlantean King.
I remember when I first watched this movie when I was 10. It instantly became my favorite film and even though I only saw it once I talked about it for months afterwards
I would kill for a model of the main sub from the film. That long LONG shot of it descending is just epic beyond words.
I've been really waiting for this one! The story is amazing and the movie is so underrated... I would love a live action for this..
I've always watched this movies in spanish, of course, but I really enjoy these reactions, and all your commentary on them. I really think my English has improved a lot more since I watch your videos 😅 So i wanted to say an extra "thank you" for that.
As always, i really gonna love this reaction! Someone probably recommended this, but i hope someday you could react to "Your Name." (Hopefully it's on your list)
Wow, this is a really long message. Anyway, i just wanted to say thank you again, and I'll be waiting for the next video! ❤️ Have a nice day, Nick 😁
Thanks Micaela it is on my list!
I always think Commander Lyle looks like the villain in Rescuers Down Under and the radio woman looks like the waitress in Emperor's New Groove
Michael J. Fox as Milo James Thatch is an awesome choice.
Looks like Marty McFly either invested so much in his studies or he hung around with Doc Brown for so long he picked up on several things.
The art style was largely from Mike Migola (best known as the creator of HELLBOY). Frankly, I love the movie's whole visual/action look and Kida is easily one of the most underrated Disney Princesses. Honestly, I think it should've been longer (a lot of the backstory gets really pushed in together)
This is one of my favourite animated films. Great story and great cast of characters.
If you like this, there's a highly underrated Claymation masterpiece called "The Adventures of Mark Twain".. it's from the 80s. It's about Twains characters (Tom Sawyer, Huck Finn, Becky Thatcher) stowing away on his giant magic flying machine as it chases haley's comet and they go on adventues through his stories. Its fun but it's also a crash course in Twain. And it's kinda dark, in a fun way ;)
You should check out the Ernest movies. my favorite ones are Ernest Scared Stupid, Ernest Goes to Jail, and Ernest goes to Camp. Ernest is one of Jim Varney's characters, Jim plays Cookie in Atlantis: The Lost Empire. RIP to an absolute legend.
My favourite line from the 'We're all gonna die' lady apart from that line has to be from using the Leviathan attack where she's on the phone saying "He left with his suitcase? Marge honey, I don't think he's coming back. I gotta go. No, no I'll call you." Of all the times to gossip with your friends....
I'm so happy to see coelacanths in the background of that one scene! ^-^
All your Disney Princesses you can count but Disney still ignores the superhuman Icelandic warrior queen Kida
Disney don't ignore her,she is NOT part of franchise because she don't respect the canon rule for be part of it, and be a princess is not a rule for be part of that franchise,I have always loved this movie, it's a shame it doesn't make any sense and has a giant plot hole like a palace, in fact it makes no sense the whole story of kida worried about dying Atlantis, because when she was little Atlantis was flourishing and everyone could read and writing and her father was there with her when it all happened, and he is still alive as are the other elders and adults of Atlantis so the fact that they cannot read and write makes absolutely no sense because all the other survivors could have passed on everything and kida says she is 8800 years old so the movie doesn't make sense, how sad. If I think it was supposed to be a huge 3 hour movie and then they cut everything and redid the plot, how sad, it's a huge plot mistake that ruins the whole movie.
@@NightLunaLia the canon rule? Load of bull that is, if Mulan - not even a princess - and Elsa and Anna - queens for different movies - can count then Kida can count, same with Princess Elionwy
the real reason they're not categorized is because the films didn't gross enough, even though the box office did turn profit, plus they never truly explored the merch value Atlantis could provide
I just want to say i love how you show so much emotion while watching these films
Atlantis: The Lost Empire has always been one of my favorites as a kid/teen. I liked the story as well. Yes, I will admit that the film may have been a little too fast-paced at times. I also thought the journey to Atlantis could have possibly been cut a little short, just so we got to see more of Atlantis. I would say films like Zootopia fixed a problem like this around fifteen years later. Anyway, I also loved the side characters. They kind of remind me of the dwarves from Snow White & The Seven Dwarfs. As far as the villains, I wish that Rourke had been developed a little more, and that Helga had possibly gotten a redemption arc after Rourke betrayed her. That is even if someone were to save her, or even Milo got to Rourke before he could throw her off, or something like that. And man, yes, what an amazing score.
Overall, I am one of the rare to few people who liked Atlantis: The Lost Empire a little more than say The Emperor’s New Groove (which I being that film up, since it came out six months before Atlantis). Well, great review, and looking forward to Ice Age!
Oh, and on a side note, I think it’s cool that Gary Trousdale, and Kirk Wise, the same team behind Beauty & The Beast, and The Hunchback Of Notre Dame, also was the directing team for Atlantis: The Lost Empire as well. Anyway!
You should watch The Dark Crystal!
AAAAAAA i’m so excited I hope you liked it!!!! this cannot get into my eyeballs fast enough!
couldn’t have been happier with this reaction 😭😭😭 this is one of my favorite animated films, and has been since it came out. I’m so so so happy you loved most of the characters, it’s definitely one of this movie’s strengths. you can watch the sequel if you want but just know it’s 3 episodes of a failed tv show stitched into a film.
James Newton Howard was at the prime of his career in the early 2000s. Dinosaur, Atlantis: The Lost Empire, and Treasure Planet! The man is a legend!
Oh BTW
If you're a Cartoon Fan
The Women who voice Kida is The Queen of Cartoon Voice Acting Cree Summer
She Voiced Susie Carmichael(Rugrats), Elmyra(Tiny Toons), Numbah 5(Codename: KND), Cleo(Clifford The Big Red Dog), Foxxy Love(Drawn Together).

It was a huge bomb when it was released, and was one of the films that made Disney abandon hand drawn animation and go full CGI.
It was designed by the famous Comics artist Mike Mignola (creator of Hellboy).
There was another introduction that was scrapped despite the fact it was finished (it's in the bonus material from the DVD), with Vikings with the book, trying to find the city, whose Dakar was destroyed by the Leviathan.
Atlantis is, apparently, the Disney animated film with the highest body count.
The animation technique was called 3D canvas, the only two other movies that used it, were treasure planet and Tarzan, it was extremely expensive and given the poor box Office for this and TP, Disney shut it down and evolved to 3D animation
I still can’t believe that Milo in this movie is 32 years old. I always thought he seemed WAY younger!
40:12 Don't think it's so much survived as more a using last bit of strength to knock him down harder than he knocked her. "Nothing personal."
Kida is a criminally underrated Disney princess. I said what I said.
I guess Disney thought she was dressed too immodest to be a princess
@@theawesomeman9821 well, technically Pretty Woman is a Disney movie, and technically Princess Leia is a Disney princess, and her outfit in Return of the Jedi left even less to the imagination. Just sayin.
I remember seeing this at the El Capitan theatre when I was 6 and still lived in California, and then there was a giant play area and games for the kids, I remember it being so fun and having a great time!
I heard that originally the movie was gonna be like over 2 hours long with probably more explanations and in-depth dives, so who knows how it would've been received if the whole thing was approved.
AHHHHHHHHH yay :D right after dylan watched it 🤣 in case I didn’t know, the kind was voiced by Leonard nemoy, the original spock from Star Trek :D and don’t know if u ever would but even in ur own time if u haven’t u should watch Dinosaur (2000) I think it’s an underrated movie. A lot of the graphics still hold up to a point. It was my fav movie as a kid :D oh he probs wouldn’t be with Audrey cuz she’s still only a teenager and milo I believe is in his later or mid 20s and kida is… 8800 ish LOL
I also recommend he watch Dinosaur! Just like Atlantis, it has likable characters you can easily empathize with, and Nick would definitely appreciate the visuals and messages of the story.
18:44 my guess is mole is a bank robber and uses drills and shovels to destroy the floor of the banks and make a smooth getaway but didn’t last time hence the reason he had Preston whitmore bail him out!!!🥷
This is one of my FAVORITE Disney movies!
