Disney delivers double the action and double the adventure for the first time in a 2-movie collection Blu-ray Combo Pack Atlantis: The Lost Empire and Atlantis: Milo’s Return which just hit store shelves on June 11th!
This must-own 2-Movie Collection is filled with stunning visual effects that come to life like never before in digitally restored high definition picture and sound. These captivating stories of friendship and teamwork are available as a 3-disco Blu-ray Combo Pack which includes both films on a single Blu-ray disc plus each film on individual DVDs.
In the 2001 Disney animated film, Atlantis: The Lost Empire, Milo Thatch is a museum employee and a linguist, who gains possession of the long lost Shepard’s Journal and is determined to continue his grandfather’s legacy of searching for the sunken utopia of Atlantis.
Backed by an eccentric millionaire, Milo joins a crew of diverse mercenaries, led by a submarine commander, Rourke. They battle a monster of the deep, a robotic sea creature that protects Atlantis, to find the sunken civilization.
Upon arriving in Atlantis, it becomes known that the people of Atlantis can no longer read their own language, and Milo can, so he becomes quite handy to the people of Atlantis. This involves a swim to the heart of Atlantis, where it is discovered that a crystal power source protects the city, and keeps the residents youthful but the crystal’s power is fading.
Milo falls in love with the daughter of the aged ruler of Atlantis and finds himself in a sticky situation, and must pick a side when it is uncovered that his crew plans to steal the cryptic power source from Atlantis and take it to the surface to be sold, which results in the crystal merging with Kida, the Kings daughter, after he is fatally wounded and Kida is then kidnapped.
Atlantis is visually impressive and slightly spiritual, filled with action and wit. It is unlike many Disney animated films as it is not packed with song and dance, but it is still enjoyable for the entire family.
Atlantis: Milo's Return came out in 2003 and is just as exciting as the first movie! It's made up of three episodes that you can watch all at once or spread out over a few days to give your kids something to look forward to! In the first episode, Milo and Queen Kida find a town called Krakenstad, lead by Magistrate Edgar Volgud. In the second story, the team of adventurers heads to the American Southwest to investigate a sandstorm and meet land prospector Sam McKeane. In the third episode, Whitmore fights his old adversary Erik Hellstrom. They're different than the original movie but give kids a great way to follow Milo and Queen Kida past the initial story.
Loaded with thrills and stunning visual effects, this sensational 2-Movie Collection takes audiences on an unforgettable voyage they’ll want to experience over and over again!
Feature Run Time: Atlantis: The Lost Empire: 96 minutes and Atlantis: Milo’s Return: 80 minutes.
MSRP: 3-Disc Blu-ray Combo (1 Blu-ray + 2 DVD) $29.99 U.S. and $35.99 Canada
