Treasure Planet is a 2002 science fiction animated feature film
produced by Walt Disney Feature Animation, and released by Walt Disney
Pictures on November 27, 2002.
The 43rd animated feature in the
Disney
animated features canon, the film is a science fiction adaptation of
Robert Louis Stevenson's adventure novel Treasure Island. It was produced
and directed by Ron Clements and John Musker from a screenplay by Musker,
Clements, and Rob Edwards.
The film employs a novel technique of hand-drawn 2D traditional animation
set atop 3D computer animation. A similar dichotomy was used for the
character of the cyborg John Silver: his natural body is hand-animated,
but his mechanical arm and eye are computer animated.
It is the first film ever to be released simultaneously in regular and
IMAX theaters.

Box Office for Treasure Planet
Despite its having been directed by the renowned animation pair of
Clements and Musker, Treasure Planet was not as well received as The
Little Mermaid or
Aladdin,
and ended up being a box office bomb, grossing only $38 million despite
its $140 million budget.
