I thought Atlantis RULED too. *nods* I liked it a lot. I wasn't sure Disney would do justice to it, but I was pleasantly surprised. Despite the fact that I've played through innumerable adventure games with Atlantis in them, they still managed to present a fresh version that didn't have me saying "oh, I saw that idea already" too often.

I even had a litmus test ready for the beginning of the movie to see how closely they studied the original source of all Atlantis stories, Plato... and they passed. On the first fly-in over Atlantis in the beginning, I saw the city design was in cocentric circles. That's a detail that, if they had missed, I would have been quite dubious about the rest of the movie...

Uh, in conclusion, I liked it a lot and I want the soundtrack and to steal the background artists. *nods*
