Each 3-disc Special Edition set features digitally restored high definition picture and sound, and makes its Blu-ray debut on June 11th.
Synopsis: From the creative team who brought you The Lion King and Beauty and the Beast comes Atlantis: The Lost Empire, an exciting quest of adventure and discovery. Led by historian Milo Thatch (voiced by Michael J. Fox), the world's most highly qualified crew of archaeologists and explorers board the incredible 1,000-foot submarine Ulysses and head deep into the mysterious seas. The underwater expedition takes an unexpected turn, though, when the team's mission must switch from exploring Atlantis to protecting it. The first film in the 2-Movie Collection also features the voice talents of James Garner, John Mahoney, Leonard Nimoy, Cree Summer, Jim Varney and Corey Burton.
Then, in Milo's Return, the fearless explorers reunite. During his initial expedition, Milo (James Arnold Taylor)and company located the famous underwater city and rescued the mysterious kingdom and all its people. Now Milo, Kida (Summer), and their crew gear up for more action. The team must leave Atlantis when trouble surfaces above water and they discover mystifying powers at work. From the dusty deserts of the Southwest to the icy heights of the Nordic mountains, the team's newest quest sets them against gigantic sea monsters, spectacular spirits and powerful legends. In the midst of their excursion, Kida discovers the awesome power of her city's enchanted crystals and, ultimately, must decide whether it is wiser to hide the Heart of Atlantis or share its light with the rest of the world.
Both The Lost Empire and Milo's Return are presented together on a single BD-50 disc, in 1080p with lossless DTS-HD Master Audio 5.1 surround tracks. Extras include:
