Short description

Titan A.E. is set in a future where an alien species known as the Drej has destroyed Earth. Fifteen years after the planet's destruction, a young man named Cale discovers he possesses a genetically encoded map that points the way to the Titan, a spacecraft holding the key to humanity's survival. Joining the crew of a ship called the Valkyrie, Cale sets out across space to find the Titan and confront the Drej, who are determined to wipe out what remains of the human race.

The film was directed by Gary Goldman and Don Bluth, who had collaborated on several animated features before this one, including Thumbelina, Anastasia and Bartok the Magnificent. The screenplay was written by John August, Joss Whedon and Ben Edlund. The voice cast includes Matt Damon as Cale, Bill Pullman as Korso, Drew Barrymore as Akima, John Leguizamo, Nathan Lane and Janeane Garofalo.

Released in June 2000, the film had a budget of 75 million US dollars and grossed 37 million US dollars worldwide. It holds a rating of 6.6 out of 10 on IMDb from over 63,000 votes, and the same score on TMDB from roughly 1,200 votes. A critics' rating of 5.7 out of 10 from 103 reviews places it slightly below the audience scores.

What's left behind the scenes

  • The film was a financial failure, which led to the closure of the "Fox Animation" studio from Phoenix, Arizona, headed by Don Bluth and Gary Goldman.
  • A computer game of the same name for "Playstation" was also planned, but the project was later halted.
  • For a preview in Atlanta on June 6, 2000, the film was transmitted in digital format from a Hollywood studio over 3,000 miles to a digital projector in the SuperComm mall’s cinema via the Internet. Everything went very successfully, making this picture the first feature-length film to be publicly screened in this way.
  • The working title of the film was “Planet Ice.”
  • The preview on June 6, 2000, in Atlanta was organized as follows: a digital copy of the film was sent via the internet from the studio to a digital projector in the cinema. The film became the first major Hollywood project to have its preview conducted in this manner.
  • The director who started the project was fired a year and a half after work began and after $30 million had already been spent. The producers gave Don Bluth and Gary Goldman, who came as replacements, 19 months to make the film from scratch.
