This might be a bit :powerlevel: but fuck it; I don't know what else to do with this information. I'm friends (or more acquaintances) with this girl who I've collaborated with for a fan project in the past. In the wake of this Harvey Weinstein thing, she posted "me too" on her Facebook not long before the Savino story broke.

Here's the thing I forgot about until literally a few moments ago, last year she interned for "The Loud House". Then and there, something clicked in my mind. Obviously, I'm not going to ask since that's so delicate a subject, not to mention I don't know her that well. But it gives me more inclination to believe that this Savino situation is true and not a bullshit witch hunt.

Hollywood has quite a big mess to clean up.
 
I'm still in the middle of watching this, but I'm leaving this here because it's fucking amazing. Don't let the title of the video fool you, it's mostly an animation lesson (albeit that of an extremely unfortunate box office bomb).

And yet I liked what I saw the first time around seeing it on the big screen.

You're not wrong - and neither is the vidya... While not my first choice of entertainment (unlike most of you guys, and I can respect that, because it more than deserves all the praise it gets.), Treasure Planet is a damn good movie with some respectable talent, who knew their stuff at the helm for it, whose only real crime was being poorly advertised and mishandled by the company producing it... Just like any 2D film after it by Disney.

This vidya really was an real eye - opener (about why Disney shouldn't be trusted to bring 2D back like all these people whining/crying for it on the internet want, as well!), IMHO.

We certainly need someone else to know what they're doing to be that harbinger.
 
I mainly discovered it because it's been making the "Have you seen this weird-ass movie?" rounds lately.

God knows I would like to own it if it was ever released in any home media format, though.
Bulgarian animation is wonderful!

Seriously, this is probably what got Rumen Petkov the hell out of there!

From the "I Can't Believe This Aired" Dept., comes a short-lived Hanna-Barbera TV effort that played only three times on NBC before being shitcanned forever. You be the judge!

Didn’t it also come out around the same exact time as another 2-D animated sci-fi movie that was marketed similarly as “young guy travels through space to find special thing”?

It was called Titan A.E.

Weird, I remember them being advertised at the same time on tv. Or maybe I’m just confusing them with A Bugs Life and Antz.
That's probably it.

Though to be fair, both Titan A.E. and Treasure Planet were released in the early 2000s. So I can see why you might get that confused.
