- Well guys, I've officially seen every Don Bluth film. So was I missing out in my childhood by not watching this movie? No... no I wasn't...

I liked this movie. Yes the plot could use some work, but it was an attempt of Don Bluth to try something new and it worked.
Fair enough.
Yeah, I can see why this was his final film. Also, let's all remember that Bluth passed up making a 2D _Ice Age_ in favor of this movie.
@Freesmart I thought they said he would've made it 2D.
The only reason we can think of why Don Bluth quit making Ice Age is because
1. He would rather stick with the form of animation he knows a lot more about than CGI - hand-drawn.
2. However, because of snobby audiences finally somehow underrated traditional 2D animation as something more outdated in the 20th Century than double standards, of course that would very likely never give Ice Age the light of day Chris Wedge gave it as a movie and a franchise after what happened with Titan AE.
And a Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy adaptation
Same case
@@DanGamingFan2846 Fox animation Studios wasn't doing well even with the success of Anastasia. If that's the case I wish Bartock the Magnificent had a bigger budget so that the film can be released in Theaters, because that film had a charming story, thus it would have been a much safer investment than Titian A.E. Ether Fox needs better management or Don Bluth should have had more control, because without Don Fox Animation would have never existed????????
some people might be saying that Titan A.E is a treasure planet knock-off, but it's the other way around. Titan A.E came out before treasure planet, and treasure planet does take a lot of inspiration from Titan A.E ( Titan A.E, 2000 ) ( Treasure Planet, 2002 )
( Also if your not a fan of Sci-Fi, furtistic stuff you shouldn't watch this movie, it will be pretty obvious why you wouldn't like it. ) Some people like this movie, even love it, you should respect their opinion and vise versa. There is no reason to argue with me????
@@seasoncookie Ironic to tell someone to respect your opinion while wording it in a way to invalidate someone else's opinion. XD
so "invalidating" someones opinion now is just speaking your own? Im not saying their opinion was wrong ( the person who deleted their comment ) I'm saying not everyone will agree and they should respect that?
I'm not exactly sure if I would consider Treasure Planet as a Titan A.E. ripoff. They have plenty of pretty noticeable differences. Plus, Titan A.E. had nothing to do with pirates.
Every single time i looked at the blonde guy I JUST THINK OF DMITRI AND HOW GREAT HE WAS, BOTH AS A LOVE INTEREST AND CHARACTER!!!!!
I love all your Don Bluth reviews. I’m surprised you haven’t reviewed An American Tail, one of Don Bluth’s classics!
As a space film I see why I prefer Treasure Planet. I see why it's considered not great.
I LOVE that movie
Yeah I saw both as a kid and i can now see why I got a lot more from Treasure Planet.
Don was actually disappointed that the Secret of NIMH somehow got a G rating because he was aiming for a PG rating on that one and compared to this I see why
Don't blame ya, and sad to say, while not the worst and had potential, it's tragic it's the final Don Bluth film we had in a while, and I still find Anastasia and Bartok as the last solid Bluth films.
At least with them, All Dogs, Land Before Time, American Tail & NIMH they are still beloved, talked about and even gotten sequels due to their popularity and all. And I do feel those 5 I.P. s are iconic Don Bluth stuff.
At least you're near the home stretch.
Can you please review An American Tail (1986)? that's the only Don Bluth film you hadn't reviewed yet.
Also there's the sequels and Tv V Series, along with the All Dogs TV series and Christmas Carol. As I keep count.
Best movie from my childhood. It's the reason I love sci-fi so much now. I still watch it every once in a while.
Same here! I just re-watched it today!
Back in 1998/99 when I was 13 they released a 20-second promo for this movie at the cinema that was incredibly affective. It was the opening monologue about humanity and the Dredge, a jump cut to 2-seconds of the Dredge mothership firing on the Earth and a second jump cut to the Titan warping away and the narration saying, “Now our only hope is Titan” and that was it.
I was utterly blown away, I loved science fiction back then and it was so vague that my young teenage brain went into overdrive speculating about this film I knew practically nothing about. Honestly…I came up with ideas that were, I believe, a lot more interesting than what we got.
Living in the UK the premonition for this film was virtually non-existent, even when it was showing, my best friend at the time had not heard about it and were it not for the fact I was actively looking out for it I’d have missed it too during the narrow window it was showing.
Honestly when I saw it on the big screen at 15 I did enjoy the ride with it having a few stand out sequences I enjoyed, the excitement of the opening, the foot chase with the Dredge on the station, the wake angels and ice crystals space scenes. Also I did enjoy the creativity of the Dredge in both their design but more importantly them being made of energy with the one that got its arm shot off taking energy from the station and regenerating along with when the captured Kale the ship and crew just absorbed into the mothership when it landed, giving them this very alien vibe.
Also having grown up with a highly slightly mentally unhinged, overprotective Mother who was quite fanatical in controlling my and my sisters media consumption, believing that watching an action film with a single drop of blood would turn us into mass murders, the existence of blood in the movie and seeing Korso snap that other aliens neck did make me feel grow up and liberated to be watching something so ‘mature.‘
The real gift of this movie though was how in the days and weeks after watching it I had fun tearing apart the various plot holes in the film. Some you have already highlighted, others include,
1. Since the Dredge clearly do not value human and I assume organic life in general, why did they waste time and resources creating a life support pod for Afenia so there is a risk she might be found and come back to fight them when they decided to jettison her into space rather than, you know, just throwing her out so she would die seconds?
2. Why design a force field to a cell that is so terrible a human can open with his fingers?
3. After seeing the Dredge can just create ships and drones out of the grid the second they need them, why have ships in the hanger bay waiting around? If you want to say so they can save the 1-second it takes to make one to fly out, that is undermined by having no crew! They are drones! Why not have them just sat in the ships? They just absorb them when they don’t need them anyway so it’s not like they need time off to sleep and eat so having pre-ships is slower as Dredge drones need to travel to them and get inside rather than the grid just producing a ship with the crew already inside.
4. How can Kale pilot a Dredge ship? I mean, why would the Dredge design ships that can be stolen in the first place? Why give their ships physical controls at all? Why not just have the same intelligence of a done in the ship itself so it does not need a crew to pilot it making it vulnerable to capture and have the drones on board as just shock troops?
5. Why build the Titan at all? This was a planet making ship that his own father confirmed they had no idea how to generate the power to make it work…this is something you figure out in the design stage BEFORE you build it as it not only serves no purpose but made humanity a target for the Dredge. The only answer that makes sense is to preserve human culture that was bound up with the planet and the various animals in the event the Earth was under threat of being blown up…but it was only under such s threat in response to it being built!
I could go on and on but the problems with the writing it horrific.
How would I fix this movie? Firstly I’d flesh out the Dredge as having come from the nearest galaxy that was destroyed by advanced alien civilisations fighting each other and the fighting got so bad as the thousands of years of war dragged and technology kept increasing by the end they were wiping out entire planets constantly. So to save this galaxy have them hell bent on suppressing all alien civilisations using their advanced tech. But the alien races of our galaxy were unwilling to induce the loss of freedom and have the Dredge rule over them and so resisted with humanity leading this massive alliance against the Dredge with the Dredge reluctantly destroying Earth to both cripple humanity and send a warning to the others to disarm and accept Dredge rule.
This gives the Dredge clear and understandable motives in destroying Earth and with the moral complexity in their goals, keeping the galaxy safe and preserving life though tyranny after seeing their own galaxy destroyed though war, you create better motives for people to side with them against the protagonists beyond “money” with some scared of retaliation with others sincerely believing that Dredge domination is a necessary evil rather than risk the galaxy eventually destroyed in war too.
This is one of the best movies I ever saw as a kid I don't care what anyone says this is a good movie and I still have it and I still watch it from time to time and I enjoy it
Geez, even seeing this much of the movie is making me want to go and rewatch Treasure Planet for the umpteenth time.
guys bad news nine realms seasen 3 is coming :(
I remember seeing this movie and I was confused entirely and already
have been seeing so many similarities of Treasure Planet. Again, Inspiration
can work but not without elements where the creators still made their own thing
but with inspiration. Titan A.E can be inspired by Treasure Planet but it doesn't
have to be exactly like Treasure Planet, especially when trying it too hard to be like it
Just so you know, Treasure Planet came a couple years after Titan AE, so I think it was TP that took inspiration from TAE.
@@kieranstark7213 True lol I rechecked the date of release between these two movies and I realized that now lol Treasure Planet is Titan A.E and Treasure Island but a lot better
I wonder why Titan AE even has a strong following anyway.
@@kieranstark7213 I guess some people adore this movie in their own way. But honestly, I would guess
that they only like for their own opinion lol just like how RaisorBlade reviews this movie
@@kieranstark7213 that’s how cult classics work.
Yeah, as I do feel with the cast of Titan A.E., they're just very standard.... And so far, very middle of the road and just saw it once. Maybe around number 6 or 7.
This is the movie where Colette was not a hot chick with a French accent (which shows that she works at the Parisian restaurant Gusteau’s), but an alien who stood up to Timon being far more abusive that anyone could possibly imagine (sure, he did have his jerk moments in Timon and Pumbaa the same way Pumbaa did despite being at heart “bestest best friends”, but I could never imagine him being so genuinely egotistical up to the ranks of Peers where he would even betray the twist villain Korso (which this movie couldn’t even decide whether they wanted him to be a good guy or a villain until they made up their mind at the end by turning him good again after especially remembering the best part of the movie where he taught Kale to fly) by holding him at gunpoint like he would do with anyone else who isn’t himself like Cale and Akima and before he would attempt to slaughter everyone else, of course Korso was gonna strangle him to death downstairs)!
It’s really unfair to compare this movie with treasure planet as it came out 2 years prior.
11:48
the answer is yes
as a fan of Sci Fi, it is weirdly common for ships to look kind of phallic
"Don't worry, Florida will be fine." 😂😂😂
Don Bluth's Space Ace movie isn't as good as the game.
I don't remember anything about this movie apart from that one admittedly clever line from the security guard, which was written by Whedon
It's truly a real pity this killed off his animation studio for alittlecwhile and not only that but unfortunately that he decides to fake his own official Disney Live Action Reboot Rouniye Instead of going going back to trafionsl 2D Hand Draen Animation which Is s real pitiful shame!!!
This is the film Bluth took over Ice Age, remember. Can see why Blue Sky didn’t want this one.
This movie was originally suppose to be made in Live Action, but for some reason the studio executives wanted to cash the last ditch effort in keeping 2D Animation alive, and backed fire... miserably.😑
But have you watched The Small One or Banjo the Woodpile cat?
He has. And he did a video about them.
Hey raisorblade can you review treasure planet
Hey I'm still waiting for your review on season 2 and 3 on kid cosmic
I haven't seen this movie since I went with my Dad to see it in the theater. I hardly remember anything about it except we both thought it was kind of meh at the end. And I grew up with the VHS's of some of Don Bluth's classics like the Secret of NIMH, All Dogs, and the Land Before Time which all left more impact. I'll use this review to see if maybe it's worth a rewatch
Yeah......Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within.......It was garbage. Also, love Bill Pullman.
I think they should've had Lone Starr, I mean Captain Korso as the main character instead of Cale, also it's weird that Disney now own this movie which means it could potentially end up in a Kingdom Hearts game someday, same could be said of all the Don Bluth films really
its 50/50 its okay but its bad for the movie
Review I Married A Strange Person (1997) next? please? You might find it interesting!
The dreh acted like a bee hive
Yeah, that movie was my guilty pleasure when I was young. I think Don Bluth only cares about style instead of story.
I can't remember if I see this in theaters or on TV, but the film had a ton of holes story wise and the marketing before it's theatrical release was a big confusing mess. It's a shame since it could have been good.
I enjoyed this movie as a kid 5:20
I Guess Titan After Earth is a matter of Taste DJ, I liked it No, Aliens Made out of Electricity Blew up The Planet.
Honestly all I really care about is that Nathan Lane is Preed. But that’s just because I recognize him from a leagues better movie.
If CK didn’t put this in his series, I probably would know nothing about this movie or care after this point.
This most certainly isn’t like Treasure Planet.
This is my least favorite film of his, because I have no nostalgia for it...and it's not even interesting with what it does wrong. The bad Don Bluth movies are kinda fun to me ..but this was boring
"If I don't like how things are going, I'll show you how much like my father I really am."
"YEAH EXCEPT WE DONT KNOW WHAT YOUR FATHER'S LIKE."
Someone please hire this man to be a Disney villain....he has clever comebacks🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I’ve seen worse, I’ve also seen better. Space yo?
Titan A.E. is on Finnish Disney Plus at least.
I liked this movie.
The plot could have been a bit better and the animation was not yet mature enough to pull off a smooth 2d-3d blend.
But i still liked it.
This movie isn’t great but it’s not bad either
Treasure planet is a masterpiece titan a e not so much
I'm not a fan of what they did to the the villain aliens even though their CGI or 3D that's the only thing that makes them different from the others aliens, l wish they give them more character to them even gorg from home have a good reason why he attacking Oh's species
Definitely watching the wrong animated space movie.
blasphemy titan A.E. kick's bottom and you's know it!
I saw this in the theatre and couldn't remember anything about it immediately after. A couple years ago, I watched it with my sister because she's a huge DB fan, and this was the only one she hadn't seen. We had fun laughing at the weird script and the "uncomfortable character design" of that one alien. You're right; it's pretty pointless tho
The first half of this movie was a real snore fest. It spends too long on action scenes and not enough on character development.
Why do all your videos say Fundraiser?
We haven't seen any funds go to charity?
Little confused buddy 😕 😐
If you look to your top right, Raisor blade is raising funds for the Ukraine citizens during the war
@@SophiaSprinkles thanks
@@Bluestone0001 Of course! ;3
yup pretty boring looking movie if it wasn't for your commentary i would have fell asleep

I just thought Titan A.E. CGI looked worse than Battlefield Earth CGI
And the aliens looked worse than the psychlos from Battlefield Earth. And these two films came out in 2000 and they’re both shit! One is a drinking game with laughably terrible acting dialogue and it’s shit, and the other is just forgettable, empty, and just plain garbage and boring.
This movie was originally supposed to be made in Live Action, but for some reason the studio executives wanted to cash in on the last ditch effort in attempt to keep 2D Animation alive, and it backed fire... miserably.😑
