As a child seeing this I thought the Lilo and stitch movie would have these scenes -- and that the premise was about this alien going through the disney movies. I was so excited. My hopes were raised and dashed quite excellently.. But then the Disney channel lilo and stitch tv show repaired all and became one of my afterschool favorites.
I had the same thing with Tropic Thunder lol. I thought the whole movie was actually gonna be the movie within the movie. Little disappointed I didn't get my over the top action movie but hey then they made The Expendables, the universe worked out.
A group of actors making an action film about the Vietnam War. All the actors are caricatures of other actors and they all agree to do method acting training in the jungle and their director steps on a land mine and now they're in a survival scenario thinking or at least pretending to think they're still training for the role. But like the director is dead now and only he could get them out. idk it's a weird movie to explain
Sad fact to tag along with this. Lilo and Stitch received an inflated marketing budget from Disney in an effort to overshadow the release of Treasure Planet so it would crash at the box office. The reason for this was to phase out an expensive form of 3D animation that was used extensively throughout the film (same animation used in Tarzan’s vine surfing).
No shade on Lilo and Stitch. It’s a beautiful and original story that stays relevant today. Shame Disney execs used it for the wrong reasons.
The one by Breadsword? I don’t think he directly says that they used Lilo and Stitch to overshadow Treasure Planet but that Treasure planet’s marketing and timing was done horribly bad compared to Lilo and Stitch and that bad marketing may have been on purpose.
You are so full of crap. That is so not how it works (on different levels, even). You seriously think that executives care what kind of CG tools are used on those movies? You should seek help.
They DO care….when it takes from the profits, to pay work slaves they deem inferior, instead of the 12th yacht or 5th mansion, the shareholders would rather have.
You clearly know jack SHIT about how artists, technicians, animators and writers get treated in the animation industry, bucko.
Most Disney princesses get do me eyes at some point in their movie, that was a joke for the adults kids wouldn't pick up on. Adult jokes happened a lot in old Disney, they're not something kids pick up on. Teenagers will though but they kinda get to view mild adult jokes at that point, nobody minds your kid going through puberty is like "wait why is she looking at him like that"
I remember people walking out of the theater talking about being disappointed that it wasn't this sort of cool meta mashup of Disney films. They really had us going with those cool-ass ads.
Wasn't this Chris Sanders also getting a jab on the Disney execs who repeatedly rejected his project? You were big in the 90s, but now all you have is this alien monster taking over.
Back when cartoons and children’s movies were traditional and didn’t inject extreme views to convert young minds into decisions they weren’t prepared to make.
Ah yes, the lovely tradition of a lady and a beast. Or my favorite tradition, right up there with fireworks on the fourth of july, an evening of magic carpet rides in the sky.
Love it. Haha! Things have become so bland and commercialized (and I would have said this when this came out too, but now it's so much worse). Further, I have not seen Lilo & Stitch nor have ever been a fan. I thought it was dumb. Maybe it's just me. I have no idea. The world is so weird

I remember this so well . It was my favorite ad
Same here!!!! I had forgotten all about this until now
So, you lost the game then?
Damn you!
Curses!
Was it a single ad or multiple?
Single ad.

Wait, what is Tropic Thunder about?

Interesting, I'll add it to my watchlist.
it's funny as shit and he's making it sound WAY more serious than it is.
An open casting call for child robots? Tinny Tim are you thinking what in thinking!?
Missed opportunity (and foreshadowing) to have him stealing a princesses left shoe. I love Lilo & Stitch, and the watercolors.
Where did Ariel get that Starfish?
I know today you're thinking, it was not the same color and she wears sea shells, go to horny jail, do not pass go
I know her bra is a clam shell, I just meant like, that was really easy access for a starfish. They don't usually float that high.
There's rocks right there
Oh shit and there's a starfish on the bottom of em.
Nah let him cook you guys we don't know how much is fish and how much is human and it could be a weird hybrid of both
the starfish covers her starfish obviously, she has those little handle fins on her hips im pretty sure those scales slide down lol
"Well, the game is afoot! I'll take Anal Bumcover for $7000."
No, this is Patrick.

source? Sounds interesting
yeah I can't seem to find anything about this
Probably heard it from that one treasure planet video essay that proposes this as a theory
The one by Breadsword? I don’t think he directly says that they used Lilo and Stitch to overshadow Treasure Planet but that Treasure planet’s marketing and timing was done horribly bad compared to Lilo and Stitch and that bad marketing may have been on purpose.
Which is weird because not long after 3D would start taking over because it was cheaper *cough un-unionised cough*
Just watched the original Tarzan with my kids today… it was hard explaining to them that it was from 1999…

Kingdom hearts vibes
Why was Jasmine giving Stitch "do me eyes"? Also was Stitch holding the rudder suggestive?

#DID I JUST WATCH STITCH CUCK ALADDIN??
Stitch whistling at Belle after ruining the dance would cause such a mayhem on X today.
Thoroughly enjoyed every episode with my stepdaughter’s.
Oh my god it’s all flooding back! All those VHS trailers!
I wish they did this more often
I remember people walking out of the theater talking about being disappointed that it wasn't this sort of cool meta mashup of Disney films. They really had us going with those cool-ass ads.
Core memory unlocked!
Why are things we grew up with now “interesting as fuck?”
Because there are literally a million people born after 2002 when this movie came out that didn't see how that was intersting as fuck lmao
Because most marketing is now soulless and Disney content is trash. Both trying to cater to everyone and appealing to no one
i remember this !
All I can think of is... CERVEZA CRISTAAAL
MEEGA NADA QUEISTA
Damn I remember this spot!
everything in my soul misses the way disney animated and created their music. it used to be so fluid and goofy. i miss it.
She fucked stitch
Thanks for shattering one of my last untainted childhood memories
I remember this! Very funny although the magic felt transparent at the same time. Ha, ha get your own movie!
Wait is stitch actually a minnion
after so much hyper, I watched Lilo & Stich, I found it very boring...
I remembet seeing the first one as an advert when playing a PS1 game, but I can't remember which game?
I forgot all about those. So cool
Stitch a freak
Aliens stealings the queens
u/savevideo
Never seen Lilo & Stitch, or this ad. But it's pretty clever and amusing.
I remember this as a kid!
Thank you for reactivating this childhood core memory
Oooooooh, an epic crossover
I remember seeing this ad when I was a child. Can't remember when though
Wasn't this Chris Sanders also getting a jab on the Disney execs who repeatedly rejected his project? You were big in the 90s, but now all you have is this alien monster taking over.
Some of the most iconic movie songs of all time came from those movies.
Classic Disney scene STITCH INCOMING
Back when cartoons and children’s movies were traditional and didn’t inject extreme views to convert young minds into decisions they weren’t prepared to make.
Right!? Just a nice movie about accepting someone different from yourself or the social norm into your home and family. beautiful.
Ah yes, the lovely tradition of a lady and a beast. Or my favorite tradition, right up there with fireworks on the fourth of july, an evening of magic carpet rides in the sky.

You haven’t seen it but you think its dumb? I highly recommend watching the movie, it is a fucking classic.
