To All Who Love Stitch: Visit This Thread

Good point there. The only villains I’ve ever seen who actually considered themselves to be evil, and revelled in that fact, are the ones on kiddie shows or in spoofs, like in Austin Powers. Even throughout the tv series based on Lilo and Stitch, we kept seeing hints that Gantu still thought of himself as the Good Guy, as an enforcer of the law of the galaxy, even though he’d been stripped of that title. In one episode, where the Experiment caused everyone to lose their memory, he and Lilo became friends, with him believing that he was the “world’s best cop”, protecting the galaxy from law-breakers. What that Experiment actually did was to strip everyone of their own made-up pretenses, so that their real nature showed itself, sort of like a “truth serum”. Still, I didn’t like the way that the series made Gantu out to be a buffoon, a bumbling idiot most of the time, since he hardly would have ever even gotten to the rank of Captain if that had actually been the case. In the movie, it was much harder to say who was the main antagonist, since MOST of the characters fit that role at some point or another. I just didn’t really get into that whole epic “Good vs. Evil” battle at the end of “Leroy and Stitch”, but then, other than providing Stitch’s voice, Chris Sanders had nothing to do with it or the series, either. His original movie proved that even in animation, you do not need a “Good Guys vs. Bad Guys” situation or a cut-and-dry example of either to have a great story that people will watch over and over again. I was extremely disappointed when I found out that he’d left due to differences with John Lassetter following the Disney/Pixar merger, since I’d had really high hopes of what he could accomplish working with the Pixar team.

I really loved Lilo and Stitch. It was my phase right between Toy Story 2 ending and The Incredibles beginning. I just got to watch it for the first time in 5 years todey, my mom finally bought it. I’m so happy!! I love it when Disney attempts Sci-Fi…this one and Atlantis are both great. :smiley: Lilo is so relateable…I used to have a Stitch plushie and a hard plastic Lilo who smelled like coconuts. They both said all my favorite phrases from the movie :slight_smile: why is Disney so amazing? I just don’t understand how one company could make me so happy…
