“Stargate: The Lost Empire”

I rented Disney's Atlantis: The Lost Empire this weekend.

I liked it... but then, Stargate is one of my favorite Sci-Fi flicks, and Atlantis is just an animated retelling of the same storyline. With the same characters. Who are all dressed the same. (Can you say, "remake"?)

Twenty minutes into the movie I said, "This reminds me of Stargate." Later, when James Garner's character made his appearance, there was no room left for any doubt. Stargate wasn't exactly a blockbuster, so Disney must have figured most people wouldn't notice or care. However, I see that someone besides me noticed the same thing.
