We Want The D

In this week's episode, Vicky, Nolan and Jill are unpacking why a movie that seems to have so much going for it can still end up failing. Disney's ATLANTIS: THE LOST EMPIRE has the pedigree of Trousdale and Wise; the voice talents of Michael J. Fox, James Garner and Cree Summer (to name only a few); and an art style inspired by Hellboy creator Mike Mignola - but for all of that it is as hollow, vacant and flat as the citizenry of Atlantis - no personality, no culture, no charm. Our hosts spend a lot of time trying to figure out what went wrong, and while the ethos of "less songs, more explosions" probably didn't do the team working on this movie any favours in making this film feel more like Michael Bay and less like Disney, its not as simple as that. So join us in our investigation as we dissect another animated outing on We Want The D.
