Impressions....

i remember seeing the trailer for this movie and was stunned to see such magnificent imagery. when i first heard of this, i was stunned to see that Disney had made 2 NEW animated movies in one year, aside for the onsaught of sequels. i was stunned. WAS

after seeing this movie i must say... my eyes have never hurt as they do now... not if i saw my fat lesbian neighbor fuck a sheep would my eyes hurt this bad... not if my eye lids were cut open and perched in front an old person eating oatmeal, would my eyes hurt this bad... all Disney's visual spender rolled into one steaming puddle of entrails.. its like they went out of their way to make me HURT!!!!...

i don't know whats worse... this movie... or airplane of retards flying into a nuclear silo... well i wouldn't be opposed to that plane being filled with the morons that give this movie 5 stars... this group is of 2 types... type 1 - those greedy intellectuals who's pocket's aren't deep enough to be filled with Disney's ugly money... included in this type is a person who i admired once, Roger Ebert... who's tomfoolery amused me so.. type 2 - an ass-brained 2 year old whose mind is only stimulated by the occasional shiny object and explosion... this type is much more common....

what the hell happened? sure, pirate ships in space sounds kooky, but the art and creative aspects had all the makings of fantastic fantasy adventure. instead what do we great? the same recycled circumstances that have been done over and over again in old Star Trek episodes and in Lost in Space. a star goes super nova, wow, didn't see that coming. now, lets speak a bunch of jardon that any normal american wouldn't understand. its ok, the explosions will keep them busy.

ugh. and if the 'special' effects didn't take away from the movie, the script is a dead runner-up. holy predictability. after making movies for as long as they have, why haven't they gotten any new writers, or at least a writer that can pass 9th grade English. you'd think some of the literature the movie was based on, would have rubbed off on the script. denied.

the third major fooly is the character design. after watching about 5 minutes of the main character and his mom, it was like i was watching The Little Mermaid's Ariel a few more years in the future with a dead-end job, no husband, and a rebelous kid. The whole bonding between Jim Hawkins and Silver, closely mirrors that bonding between Kit cloud kicker, and Baloo from a GOOD disney tv series, Tail Spin. most of the aliens in the movie seem so forced, like Disney went out of their way to try and make something different.

well now we know for sure that Fox Animation can do Titan AE better than Disney can... money is greed and uncreativity... as time goes on, the more money Disney puts into a project the worse it gets... look at Lilo & Stitch... after the failed Atlantis, Disney puts its greasy foot down on using money for NEW projects... a Disney rep was quoted to say, "look fellas, we not makin' much money no more.. sequels make us money... new stuff is confusing and too risky... ".. so they severly limited Lilo & Stitch's budget past the point that no Disney movie has gone before.. and look at it .... its their best movie since the good 'ol days... sweet, charming, and lovely... like a flower that grew out of a pot of dirt...

so Disney started getting confused about new stuff... maybe its not such a bad idea to be the best in world in animating stuff... so they tried to out do their own sub-company at computer animation and creativity... idiots... the only ties to tradition Disney Animation is the characters they ripped off from previous Disney works...

i suggest you never see this movie. anything that has salvage from this stain of cinema, will surely be reproduced again in the future for your tainted eyes to gaze upon.
