Happy Nineteenth ΛnniversΛry to ΛTLΛNTIS: The Lost Empire!
Well-well-well, it appears that another June 15th has been given to me/us, and Ian humbled to breathing on another one, because once again, I get to celebrate the release of my favorite animated film of all time(tied with Dinosaur and Treasure Planet of course), Disney’s Atlantis: The Lost Empire.This movie has defied the common odds of Disney tradition, and gave me a breathtaking experience. From the commercialism of its majestic, and mysterious symbol, the stylized A, or as I like to call her, Ms. Lambda Atlantis, to the rusty steel wall of water ripples of “Walt Disney Pictures”.
Now the water ripples I made are pretty intermediate, good in a few part, sloppy in some, so I’m still improving on them for the next anniversary, so bare with me here. I’m going to remake this and create an extended version for the next anniversary and post it on YouTube as a meditative/sleep ambiance, so stay tuned.
From make an 2001 to 2020, this motion picture still delivers and it ages like fine wine, no matter how criminally underrated it is, and no matter how slept on it is. Heck even in the Non/Disney Crossover Community there has a been huge decline in Milo Thatch manips and admittedly it’s been getting me tight, but we ain’t talking about the NDCC right now. Today is the day to remember and rejoice the green lighted existence of this amazing work of art, a hidden gem, a diamond in the rough, and an astronomical treasure to my personal childhood. Thaddeus Thatch said it himself “Our lives are remembered by the gifts we leave our children.” If anything lives can also be remembered by the gifts left to entertain the audience. This film is a gift to me, it still is, and I will make sure it always will be, along with Dinosaur, Treasure Planet, and every Non/Disney film that made my childhood, but for now, this day belongs to the 41st Walt Disney Feature Animated Motion Picture, “Atlantis: The Lost Empire”, and also the Pixar sequel of Incredibles 2, and little honorable mention. To all fellow Atlanteans/family/friends, I have you all have a blessed day, and Happy Nineteenth ΛnniversΛry to Disney’s ΛTLΛNTIS: The Lost Empire!
