Yea - read the book then watched the film.

Dunno "ok" I guess but they didn't really rock my world.

I actually dug it out of my closet when I read this.
It's true, though. Titan A.E. was motherfucking awesome.

I love that movie. I am always making references to it. My fav quote would have to be:

Akima - "So, what are you going to name the planet?"
Cale - "Bob"
Akima - "You can't name a planet Bob!"
Cale - "Sure I can, I just did."

That movie will always have a special place in my movie collection. I want to watch it again now.
As for what happened to it, I would say the same thing that happens to every movie that was not a massive hit.
This quote made me remember what movie that was. I saw it once, loved it, then never heard of it again. Then again, I was quite young when it came out...
I think I want to see that again

It was darker, no singing chipmunks, and not to up beat for the Disney crowd.


Look up a movie called the Black Caludron, my fav movie as a kids but Disney's shame. It'd be perfect for Kingdom Hearts....but alas no singing woodchucks.

The film industry works in cycles, we have just come to the end of the zombie cycle and what's next? Who knows. I love Titan AE, always have. I don't remember ANY advertisement though. I bet it came out during the wrong cycle. The animation is great though, and the characters are well defined. I wish it was more popular.

Titan A.E. is one of my favorite space opera type movies. Don Bluth did some great stuff and anyone who says otherwise obviously had a childhood that involved violent and uncaring parents that deprived their children of the good in life.

Favorite line:
Gune: [holding up a small device] Does this look familiar? Do you know what it is? Neither do I. I made it last night in my sleep. Apparently I used Gindrogac. Highly unstable.
Preed: Gune...
Gune: I put at button on it. Yes. I wish to press it, but I'm not sure what will happen if I do.

Also fun:
Akima: You can't call a planet "Bob."
Cale: So now you're the boss. You're the King of Bob.
Akima: Can't we just call it "Earth"?
Cale: No one said you have to live on Bob.
Akima: I'm never calling it that.

Just to add to a point I made earlier, PLEASE no sequels. The plot is closed-ended, there's no reason or point in making a new one The only thing that they could possibly do to continue the story would be to show the colonization of Earth 2 and that would be about as entertaining as watching someone else play Civilization with all of the other countries and barbarians turned off. In short, a sequel would be boring, unnecessary, pointless and, in a word, bloody stupid.

Titan A.E? I remember that, still have it somewhere amoungst all the other DVDs. I thought it was a pretty decent film. Not brilliant by any means, but still enjoyable. Definitely underappreciated, anyway.

I do remember being impressed when Korso tells Cale to exhale (rather than inhale) before they have to jump through vaccum into the ship, and the film did have some pretty memorable scenes in it.

Not the best movie ever, but especially for the time it was quite awesome.

"I think I'll call it... Bob."
"You can't name a planet Bob!"

:D

well as a great man once said, "Sometimes a franchise just has to die. sometimes it's sad but..." so ya, I'll apply that to titan AE. I loved that movie, more than star wars. It was crazy action, awesome voice acting, and insane ideas, hell, I'm basing my second book around some ideas therein contained. Sometimes I just want to cry that no one even thought to resurrect such a great franchise but then i remember that great quote. So don't cry that it's dead, be joyful that no one has sullied that great name, destroyed it and raped it for every last penny it was worth. It was great, and I salute the great warship in the museum. and it really impressed others also, a poster for it is in the science fiction museum in Seattle, Washington!
So, in summary, let the poor girl die, she did her best, but there is no way that I know of that they can make a competent sequel. Except if they brought back some kind of resistance attack from some kind of a BIG dredge ship that lets out the little mother ships like the regular one would let out the small ones, but unless they could add some other revolutionary ideas, it's still one dead duck.
Also another movie that could have had a great sequel but didn't was Iron Giant. Of course the way i would have done it if I was old enough to do it back then would have made Transformers look like it was bastardizing our franchise! So ha! what do you think of them apples Micheal Bay? ..I.. you man!
Any who, what I'm saying is that the great companies like Dreamworks, Pixar, and Disney, are all run by idiots now! they don't know when to just stop a franchise and when not to. thaks for listening, i hope this says all it needs to.

I liked Titan A.E. It had some cool chase scenes with cool music and a decent atmosphere. The story was pretty good, and the dredge were cool badies.

Overall the movie was quite cool, but because it is old and didn't receive much attention at the time, people forgot it... Could it be that other blockbusters came out at the same time and squashed it into oblivion?
