Topic	Atlantis has to be one of the most underrated Disney movies
ParanoidObsessive 11/11/20 2:32:00 AM #12:	Atlantis is even more interesting when you realize a lot of the backstory for it is based on real stuff. It references a lot of the traditional Atlantis myth sources, from Plato to Ignatius Donnelly to Theosophy ideas, with a dash of just general New Age and sci-fi tropes thrown in. It basically feels like someone sat down and did like years worth of research on every single major idea involving Atlantis that had been written for the last 2000 years and tried to hammer them all into one cohesive whole that could represent a single culture. It feels like so much effort wasted on an animated movie for kids who will mostly never appreciate any of that anyway. --- "Wall of Text'D!" --- oldskoolplayr76 "POwned again." --- blight family <cite>ParanoidObsessive posted [p:947022016] in Atlantis h...
