Its mostly fails in the USA for the most part. The US just has a large bias for animation, animation is for children so the stories aren't as good. Which is so weird, like outside of disney right the 60s, 70s and 80s were full of experimental animation that was targeted at older audiences and movies were Family Movies(tm). We kinda lost the Family movie (tm) movies that were just good stories that the whole family can enjoy together. Not just small children. Also there are so many amazing animated movies from other parts of the world (not just japan) that are really adult and just cinematic af. There's a lot of really good french animated movies /short films that are very adult in tone and talk about very serious topics. Animation i feel can express emotion better than traditional filming. Other than that stuff, some people just don't connect to animation. Like they can't fully immerse themselves into the story or they find the animation distracting, or they just don't like 2D. Ive met people like this in person, a middle ground i found is stop motion animation, since its more real. Its like with books, lots of people say they don't like books. Edit: also i really hate the whole "its for kids so its not good" mind set. Like yeah you're not going to fully engage with a movie ment for toddlers but most kid movies are actually really nice and a decent story with good music. Honestly a good movie at the end of the day is a movie thats not boring and you like it for whatever reason.

I feel like Sinbad would have done much better if it had released in 2021, people are a lot more open to more nuanced, mature animation than they were before, and most of that stigma is (hopefully) gone.

I saw an interesting take on video games becoming more mature (like with zelda twilight princess, etc) and I think it also applies to animated movie. So basically, early on in video games (and animated films) the majority of the audience was children. Which means for a more mature version to hit the same kinds of numbers, that audience needs to age up into it. So a mature version would likely only be successful 20-30 years after it is a big boom for kids. I think that is the case here and supports what you are saying. Now there are alot of people in their 20-40s that grew up watched animated films, so more mature and nuanced versions have a large audience to tap into.

Eris is definitely the crazy kind of hot lol.
The animation for eris alone deserved an Oscar, I couldn’t find the name of the ones who actually animated her but she is by far one of the most mesmerizing characters in an animated medium, every moment she’s on screen is sheer animation eye-candy
This movie was my entire childhood, thanks so much for covering it. It definitely deserves more love.
You missed out on some details that are still vivid in my memory from childhood - like the fact that Sinbad left Syracuse to become a pirate when he saw Proteus's arranged fiancée out of jealousy and that was his whole backstory, or the fact that Eris framed Sinbad BECAUSE she knew Proteus would demand the right of substitution (it was Proteus she wanted dead, not Sinbad), or the fact that that guy telling the other guy to pay up was a RECURRING gag. One thing I do NOT remember is the arctic scene, I'm totally drawing a blank there, it doesn't even look familiar - my brain says that they went from the anglerfish straight to the edge of the world. In any case, I do remember loving this movie, like Treasure Planet and Atlantis, and definitely put in the same category as those movies.

It's so rare to see 2D animated films these days now. I really miss traditional hand drawn animations, and it was DreamWorks last 2D animated film.
Titan A.E. failing was a tragedy, because not only was it not a bad movie (it's flawed, but not bad), but it also killed Don Bluth's career, and I absolutely love Don Bluth films, with The Land Before Time in particular being one of my comfort movies. Atlantis is probably one of my favorite animated Disney films, so that movie being a failure was also a travesty. And Road to El Dorado? Probably one of the funniest and most quotable animated films, period. I feel like we as an audience were needlessly harsh on animated films that came out at this time. I'm not sure what it was around 2000-2003 that caused so many animated films to flop, but I guess audience tastes were more towards live action at the time since it was mostly adults going to see movies and animation was seen as only for kids at the time. It's only now that the kids of the time have grown up that these movies are getting recognition for actually being good.

@@fightingmedialounge519 It could, and in some cases (hello, The Grinch, my favorite Christmas movie ever) it most definitely is, but in many cases the younger generations are watching these films on recommendation from older fans and realizing that they actually are really good too. Back when the movies came out though, everyone was into big live action blockbusters like The Matrix or CGI films like Toy Story 2 because it was a newer animation style most people hadn't seen to death yet (don't get me wrong, both are good movies too), and it was hard for a traditionally animated film to get any notice because of it.
Hi ,i'm from the places sinbad story is made ,this adaptation toned down the story SOOOOOOOMUCH -Sinbad is not a pirate,but a merchant from bagdad,the story started as him eyeing a ship that was about to sail and they were delivering goods to sell ,so he decides to join them to you know get some money ,so uh the thing backfired badly ,and none survived outside of him ,yeah his first adventure was him in a near death experience -the gaint bird pokemon is actually a gaint Phoenix(or not i don't remmber)the story is so good and is my favorite ,sinbad landed in an island full of gaint gems ,he took opportunity to take them but the brid eats these gems so the bird accidentally took sinbad to his nest ,i can't describe in details the stakes but after another near death experience he managed to take the bird's egg and escape -there is also another story that i like of him also experiencing a live threatening situation with a one eyed cyclop that eat humans ,it wasn't in the movie (it's gory but not really)it's also my favorite -there's alot of stories about sinbad and in alot of them people don't really survive, and i don't think there was a story like the one in the movie ,the stories could be material for so many sequels (sindbad is really the og Indiana jones before IndianaJones)i hope you go read them yourself ,(sorry for the rant i just love his stories, and this dreamworks ver was my childhood crush 😂)

If I remember right, there should be like 7 stories about Sinbad in the 1001 Nights stories
People: Kids' movies don't have deaths. Tell that to Bambi, Elsa, Simba, etc, etc, etc.
A few things: the book seems to act like the Atlantis heart. No light = no crops = starvation. The plan was to have the prince die and send the city into chaos. The main villain knew Sinbad would plan to run away. He was going to go to Fiji.
What about "remastering" movies? These titles that flopped, polish anything that looks rough, i.e. improve the CGI and add deleted scenes that could expand world building and characters. Longer runtime but profitable for new and old generations
This movie introduced me to Michelle Pfeiffer like her voice alone made me love her
You should watch the short film called Gruff. Its a movie made with stop motion and paper.
Dude, Eris was probably the first time I cracked a fa-
I was OBSESSED with this move as a kid. Honestly, if they could’ve profited off of the amount of times, I watched that VHS tape they would’ve easily made box office because it was ridiculous how many times I’d watch that movie a day
Sinbad accidentally defeating a God is very fitting for a famous pirate ☠
If this movie was made Today not the 2000s because everyone was on the 3D computer animated films like Toy Story A bug life and more and because their isn't in Western Animation fully 2D Animation it would be good or make Headlines like Klaus did for Netflix ❤❤ Good Video keep up the Great Work ❤

It would have been cool if at each challenge Eris gave them, one of the crew members died, like a main crew member and when they finally encounter Eris for the final boss battle, she reanimates those crew members and Sinbad has to face each one (or just creates a fake body like she did when she disguised herself as Sinbad, because I don't know how well "puppeting a dead corpse" would go down with test audiences). Whether it be in a physical showdown or a psychological battle of wills and overcoming guilt, having Sinbad face his crew, his friends, that died on a quest that could have been avoided if he chose differently would have been a HUGE emotional climax for the movie. You get the character deaths, you get the emotional growth, you get a completion of character arches, you get DEPTH of characters and get to see just how connected they were. That would have been cool.
This movies is still entertaining, because I completely missed a bunch of double innuendos as a kid. "Put a shirt on before you poke someone's eye out" makes me still cackle, it's so good, way too underrated and I was OBSESSED with Eris because of this movie. Probably a very boomer thing to say but they don't do movies like this anymore, don't remember when was the last time I got excited about movie premier
We need to see pig collab with Kurtis Conner for a movie review. That’d be dope
I loved that movie. Whenever I woke up, I’d just pop it in the VHS and set it to loop, and I’d sit and watch for hours.
the absolute swerve the movie threw me into when Sinbad answered Eris’s question shook me so hard as a kid. i can agree that this movie could have higher steaks of death like Atlantis or Treasure Planet but at the same time i think the sudden change in Sinbad kind of makes up for it.
idk how common a thought this is (I'm also only 5 minutes into the video so maybe he brings this up at some point) but hear me out- This movie would've worked WAY better as an animated series. A colorful cast of characters? Check. A menagerie of menacing monsters? Check. It would also help with continuity errors such as the ship being damaged and repaired offscreen and between scenes, because there'd actually be time to explore those down moments a bit further! Thoughts?
Love the plantrum music playing in the background bringing be back to the good old days of lbp 2
I remember watching Sinbad in high school at some point and I completely forget why we would’ve watched that in class
I feel you on the death thing. No consequences = no stakes Throwback to me watching Punisher, then watching Thor Ragnorok. You see where I'm going with this.
Enjoying the obscure film reviews. You need to review the Bionicle Trilogy. It's so weird and so interesting.
So glad to see this film finally get the recognition it deserves. I grew up watching this on repeat, and saw it again recently. It still totally holds up
Love your work. Keep it up you unsung hero🤷🏽♀️✨
Child me used to confuse Sinbad with El Dorado ALL the time
Can you please do a video on “The Secret of the Magic Gourd”.. love your vids
I think that there is more depth to the love triangle that people may think. Sinbad told Marina that despite Proteus being a prince he never felt jealous of him. Until she came to Syracuse, admitting that he's always loved her and he'd leave rather than losing his friendship with Proteus.
This movie is my childhood!!!!! I'm so glad you made a video on it to share with everyone!!
20 seconds ago is crazy
When i was a kid and saw this movie my opinion hasn't changed a bit about the movie, i still love it, and it's definitely a fun movie, but now as an adult i can see what things were missing in the movie, to make it from a 6.5/10 to an 8.5 or 9 /10. 1. Minimum extra half hour of time for the movie to add necessary things. 2. In the opening parts of the movie, add a few more words about that Book of Peace to have a bigger hint for the importance of that book, and later to get more details during the king's speech in Syracuse about the events that made this book so special to these kingdoms, and why the book changes residence between those united kingdoms that the book protects. 3. That at the beginning of the movie Proteus says more about his friendship between him and Sinbad, so that we know why it means so much to him, and not just "a long time ago we were wants friends", and they act like they haven't seen each other for a week, and when Sinbad is coming to Syracuse we should see a flashback of him and Proteus when they were friends, just making that connection that they didn't explain well enough in the movie, and that Sinbad doesn't remember why he left his friend, and he says this to Kale before they sailed close to Syracuse, that it was a long time ago, and later a few hours (of course their hours) in the movie that Marina is coming to Syracuse with her escort, and during the evening Proteus would like to introduce Sinbad to her, like in the movie, and that is when Simbad remembers, in that moment why he left in the past. 4. That the disappearance of the Book of Peace show that it has more visible consequences, which can be shown more and that it should be more emphasized, why the Book of Peace is so important, and that for example, the problem of the book must be solved quickly, and that they can give simbad only 10 days, because in order to possibly find a replacement for the book, they need to do preparations, and that 10 days is the most they can give. 5. Eris definitely could have had more scenes, and we could have seen more of her personality that they decided to cut, and of course there should be some human victims in the movie, so that the risks and attention were really noticed more, and the best places for this would be with the sirens and with that white bird. If those things were changed and added to the movie it would really be a much better movie, although that's just my opinion, if anyone wants something to just then add it, or what you don't agree with? I'm really interested in other people's opinions and how you feel about my opinions?

Another great flick you should cover that nearly bankrupted their company is "Rock & RUle", by Nelvana Corp. They botched the advertising campaign and only advertised it in 2 Northern United States (One of which I believe was Montana) and parts of Canada. It has, since it was put on youtube from an old VHS rip, gained a huge following. With the voices of Lou Reed, Music by bands like Debby Harry, Earth Wind, and Fire, it's like....if Disney met Heavy Metal Magazine.
Could you do a video on Spirit: Stallion of the Cimarron? Its an older dreamworks movie that is just beautiful with a combination of 2D and cg animation with a story showing how colonization affected native Americans. Also make sure to not watch Spirit: Riding free unless you want to do a comparison, cause the newer Spirit movie is literally just your typical horse girl movie.
god never have I resonated with a youtube outro this much

i still love watching the Ice Bird stage to this day
Eris didnt want Sinbad to die, she wanted Proteus to die, because stealing the book actually didnt do anything, but the consquence of the heir to the kingdom dying would have left it in chaos. I think there was probably a reason for the book that we the audience never got to see because the film was cut back a lot, it seems like all of the backstory that didnt fit into 3 second expositional dialog was cut, which is a huge shame because those small pieces of story would have turned it from a good film to a great one. Still love it tho!
This movie (Along with Shrek and Road to El Dorado) was a family favorite growing up. I believe I still own my childhood VHS, but seriously, this movie is fantastic and always a joy to watch, it's a shame it flopped so hard
This movie is back when me and my father is still get along. I still remember I ask him to put it on dvd player everynight before sleep. Long time ago.
HELL YEAH! I literally adored this movie as a child and still love it as an adult. Especially all the scenes with eris and the sirens, so beautiful!
What do you mean one of my favorite childhood movies was a flop?? I would watch this every week with my brother
my head canon is that Proteus just has a massive crush on Sinbad
Love, Death, Robots is probably the closest thing you’ll find these days. It’s a great show you should look at!
