AnimationFamilyComedyScience Fiction

The continuing adventures of Lilo, a little Hawaiian girl, and Stitch, the galaxy's most-wanted extraterrestrial.

    I'm watching Stitch the Movie right after watching the first one holy shit the animation took a nose dive. I know its made on a tv budget but its still so jarring

    This movie is weird to me as someone who mainly watched the show. To me, Stitch: The Movie is Lilo and Stitch 2

    Today's Monthly Disney Drawings are Sparky from Stitch! the Movie and Lumpy from Pooh's Heffalump Movie. That's right. We're entering spin-off territory now. Today, I'm focusing on characters featured in the Kingdom Hearts series, but look forward to others from subsidiary studios. Enjoy!

    I hadn't seen Stitch the Movie since i was a kid and watching it today i kinda remember why i didn't go back it. I don't think it's awful by any means but it definitely feels very drawn out and slow paced. The show it was setting up is way better but it did get some laughs out of me here and there

    She definitely crosses the line whenever she mocks Lilo for not having parents. Let’s assume he’s just bluffing to scare her like when he almost spat acid at her in Stitch! The Movie.

    If you want to see more Lilo and Stitch instead of the live action one, I'd highly recommend watching the series as well as Stitch the Movie which is the prologue of it. www.youtube.com/watch?v=VIZy...

    How? They can't adapt any of the sequels because they fucked up Jumba and Gantu is non-existant Both 'Stitch: The Movie' and 'Lilo and Stitch 2: Stitch has a glitch' are entirely based on Jumba being part of the family and living in their house

    It's not specified, but it probably won't be a remake of the original direct-to-video sequels like Stitch! The Movie (2003) or Lilo & Stitch 2: Stitch Has a Glitch (2005).

    ok, the one saving grace of Stitch the Movie is it gave us these two perfect characters and the PREMISE of "this found family movie about hawaii is now a pokemon rip-off" is a delightful concept honestly. but that only worked as a pilot for a TV show. it just does not work as a blockbuster

    I watched the Lilo & Stitch re-telling the other day with @bluerumpbandit.bsky.social, And it was a decent movie for what it is. People who didnt watch it were mad about Gantu's absence, but the movie literally referenced Stitch the Movie / The series. I think he'll show up in the next movie!

    Stitch: The Movie though taking place after Lilo & Stitch 2 is about Stitch feeling down without other aliens to hang out with, and when Gantu returns to collect 625 other experiments, its up to Lilo and Stitch to free the "cousins" including #625 (Rueben) and #121 (Sparky). Also TV series pilot.

    Stitch! the Movie is basically a pilot to the TV-series, and if you know me... then you know I am not a huge fan of pilots. Like, it mostly just feels like groundwork for something much better that will come later (which makes sense here, because the series is genuinely really good).

    It's honestly kinda fascinating how both sequels capture different aspects of the original~ Stitch the Movie: more focus on the sci-fi intergalactic antics, Gantu, Councilwoman, Cobra Bubbles, etc. Stitch 2: more focus on Hawaii, David, Nani, the more heavy and emotional aspects, etc.

    Stitch! The Movie this was most certainly a 60 minute pilot for a TV series sold as a direct to video film. i guess disney saw pokémon and said “gimmie some of that shit” cuz now there’s 625 other aliens besides stitch. also that french hamster is hot. i’m sorry. i’m sorry. i’m not a furry i swear

    Lilo & Stitch is my favorite Disney movie. The people yelling “THeN wHO’s ThE viLLaiN?” don’t know what they’re talking about. The original HAS. NO. VILLAINS. Gantu, Bubbles, Grand Councilwoman? They’re all just people doing their jobs. Gantu’s just a dick and not a “villain” until Stitch the Movie

    My biggest take about MOANA 2 is probably the most common take about it: goodness, this thing just can't escape the stink of being a direct-to-video TV series pilot movie. It's like if STITCH: THE MOVIE was released theatrically.

    I just watched Stitch! The Movie which I wasn't aware was just the pilot for the animated series. With that being said, it was a simple yet cute and fun enough time and does function well as a pilot. It also seems to be cashing in on the Pokemon craze which I didn't realize when I was younger.

    #3: Stitch! The Movie While not as good as the first two films or Leroy & Stitch in my opinion, this still is another great Stitch movie. It also serves as the beginning to the Lilo & Stitch TV series by introducing us to the other 625 alien experiments, as well as the villain, Dr. Hämsterviel.

    After being angered over the Live Action Stitch movie, I say down and watched all of the animated Stitch movies, and it’s just so glaringly obvious Disney didn’t care for any of the narratives or stories the movies told. In Stitch The Movie, Jumba gets taken and everyone is distraught over it.
