They both have their fanbases, but Atlantis seems to be remembered way more favorably.
>>
>>89523513
They are about the same for me, though I still hate Atlantis for killing best girl. So Treasure Planet wins because it's best girl lived.

Because one is literally Treasure Island in space, while th other is at least a little bit unpredictable.
Also Mignola, it's own laguage and dieselpunk adventure. Can't top this.
>>
>>89523583
Atlantis was way more creative. Plus, the visuals. It didn't have the why cgi animation as much as TP did.
>>
>>89523513
Loved Atlantis, saw it in theaters with my dad and sister, we all enjoyed it. TP, while enjoyable didn't top Atlantis in my book, but I could connect with TP' main character because my father also left around that time.
>>
>>89523513
The strongest element of both is their visual design, and Atlantis' is stronger.

Hey.... what about this? All three movies seem more on the adult side of things, not afraid to show blood.

http://kisscartoon.se/Cartoon/Titan-A-E/Movie?id=3766

Unfortunately most of them do have that one comedic relief character and a bunch of immature stuff hero cliche piled in it.

I fuckin' loved Titan AE
IT'S MY TUUUUUUUUUUUURN TO FLY

>>89523513
I wouldn't call either a cult classic, most people don't even know they exist, which is pretty telling for relatively recent Disney theatrical realeases.
As for the why Atlantis would supposedly have more fans, I have no idea, it was the inferior movie imo.

It hasn't aged well, but it was great for my teenage skatecore-loving self.

Also might aswell add pic related if the discussion is going to be "teenage-oriented animated movies from the early 2000s that flopped".

Simple.

Delicious brown indigenous waifu.
When the other provided only a furrry waifu.
The size of target audience have done the rest.

I like how Atlantis and Stargate prove you can make nearly the same exact movie with almost the exact same characters and still have vastly different and enjoyable results just by execution alone.
>>
>>89523932
Was my favorite movie when I was a kid. Watched it about a year ago...it did not age well at all. The animation is terrible, characterization is non-existent. The girl is just...there, and the 90's butt rock soundtrack is generic at best. Don't revisit your heroes kids.
>>
>>89523513
Atlantis was better.
>>
>>89523513
I would disagree. Atlantis seems to be more forgotten than Treasure Planet. At least among all the people on /co/ and all people I speak to in real life.
>>
Because the quality of the two movies are different?

nearly a hundred years of average guy getting bombshell woman in media has left people feeling like they don't actually have to bother making male heroes hot because they're gonna get the girl anyway, but the girl still has to be not only worth getting but worth showing off

I blame cartoons for making me want to be a girl

Why isn't Atlantis a disney princess?
>>
>>89529878
Two reasons, protagonists are often pretty generic because they're a standin for the audience and Milo is no different.

Underwater Korra is the audience's main way of connecting with the Atlanteans and understanding their culture. So she is front loaded with all the stupid tack. If surface dwellers were the 'exotic' culture then Milo would wear sunscreen and have a tan because that's surface dweller shit.
>>
>>89530111

Kida's movie was a box office flop, so she doesn't get to be an official Disney princess even though she is a princess by birth.
>>
>>89530111
Because the movie flopped and resulted in a stillborn franchise.

Atlantis 2 was three episodes of a canned TV show stitched together with a lame ending slapped on it. The TV show was going to feature a Gargoyles crossover where the gang fights Demona in Paris.

Submarine Voyage at Disneyland was planned to be retooled into an Atlantis theme with the Leviathan and everything and Magic Kingdom was going to get a hybrid coaster called Fire Mountain based on the third act.

But the fucking normies didn't want to see a Disney movie with less singing and more explosions...

If I remember right it was designed as a prequel game about the expedition to recover the Shepherd's Journal.

People say Disney ripped off this, while not saying anything about the scene that anime ripped off from Disney's live action adaptation of 20,000 leagues which all three movies are based on. In episode 8 there's a scene with power cords going up a mountain side which wasn't in the original novel, only in the Disney adaptation.
>>
Treasure Planet sucked and the only reason people have any semblance of fond memories is a single character.

- Bought into the X-Games fad
- bad montage with a pop song
- not one, not two, but three annoying joke characters
- much worse CG than other Disney films at the time

and so on
>>
>>89530603
>all 3 movies
Meant to say 2 movies and an anime.

I remember that I WANT THE MOMENT TO BE REAL song well but yeah it was otherwise forgettable. Meanwhile Atlantis is fondly in my
mind still.

I miss Dreamworks' 2D animation. Prince of Egypt was phenomenal, Road to El-Dorado was great, and although it's easily the weakest of the three, I still like Sinbad: Legend of the Seven Seas.

I like that they let you feel bad for a biblical bad guy. Being on God's bad side usually means a character goes full "irredeemably evil" mode.

I like Treasure Planet more, but I can agree on Atlantis being the better movie.

Atlantis had a more appealing cast of characters. Treasure Planet's characters were kinda ugly.

I dated a girl in highschool who's favorite movie was Treasure Planet, but that's pretty much the only person I can think of who really brought the movie up a lot.

That's terrifying, it reminds me of the scene in Ice Age when they're walking through the cavern with dinosaurs and aliens frozen in the ice walls.

I dunno, I think the Japanese were interested in some form of diesel-punk at some point. So maybe Atlantis. However I think we should just be grateful for whatever we get in 3.

Having read Treasure Island shortly before watching Planet, I was disappointed that Jim didn't blow the mantis's head off, and he just let him float away.
