"Atlantis: The Lost Empire" Is Next!

Rick Green

Aye. Shame it's only just a cult classic these days.

Interesting review and next one is Atlantis! Definitely an underrated movie among Disney’s 2000s films.

During the Heigh Ho parody part, I was actually thinking about the simpsons song with these lyrics. "Ho hi, ho hi, it's time to say goodbye! If Disney sues, we'll claim fair use, ho hi, ho hi, ho hi, ho hi!".

This was definitely an interesting film to look into. Unfortunately the most I ha heard of Gulliver‘a Travels before this film was the 2010 Jack Black movie, but I will gladly take this film of the Jack Black movie any day of the week. The next classic review is going to be Atlantis: The Lost Empire, in my opinion one of Disney’s weaker films they’ve done, but I can understand why the film has gained a cult following over the years.

Ok that’s funny and would probably make more sense than you think

I remember seeing this on Netflix and while not a faithful adaptation of the first part of Gulliver’s Travels (Part I being Gulliver’s adventures in Lilliput & Blesfuscu), at least it’s way better than that crappy 2010 film starring Jack Black. I also recently read the first part of Gulliver’s Travels and Lilliput and Blefuscu are actually satires of the kingdoms of England (Lilliput) and France (Blefuscu) and them being in war with each other is a satire of England and France’s wars such as The War of the Grand Alliance AKA The Nine Year’s War (1689 - 97) and the War of the Spanish Succession (1701 - 1713) and Lilliput’s politics in the original were a satire of England’s then politics. Very completely different from how they’re portrayed in this film.

Never heard of the 1939 film of Gulliver’s Travel outside of the Jack Black movie I saw in theaters as a kid. Yep, believe it or not and it was bad and quite forgettable too. Anyways, since this is an underrated animated film that no one talks about other than getting an Oscar nomination for Best Original Song before losing to the Wizard of Oz, it looked interesting with how mentioned. Don’t know if I want to watch it in the future, but only if I wanted to. Anyways, definitely can’t wait for you to talk about Atlantis: The Lost Empire. Though I was waiting for someone to make a request to review a Halloween animated movie like Monster House for example, but I’ll take Atlantis as a acceptance. I know you’ll probably give it a mediocre review for this one since it not one of your favorites, but I like it a lot more than you do since I support the cult following it getting while grew up with this movie as a kid. I’ll talk more on Atlantis when you post your review next month.

Now this is delightfully retro, another not as much as the next one. Funny because I just started rewatched old Atlantis clips last night. I'm not saying Vinny is one of the best animated side characters ever but I'll strongly imply it.

Heh, quite a coincidence indeed, since Doug reviewed the next movie a few weeks ago...
