So it was a pretty different type of situation. Otherwise, you've given me enough reason to rent the DVD for Milo's Return, which is more than I was going to do. So mission accomplished!

Originally Posted By TheRedhead I just watched this last night, and I have to say I thought it was fantastic. Reminded me a lot of the Gargoyles tv series, which is extremely high praise. But I also thought it was great how they linked the three episodes together. I was truly expecting something like the silly TARZAN AND JANE "Hey remember that time..." But it actually had a pretty cool flow. Definitely worth renting, and if you're an ATLANTIS fan, definitely give it a shot.

Originally Posted By basil fan Whoa, Gargoyles meeting Atlantis!! Of course, all the main Gargoyles would still be asleep, but Demona was roaming around. That would be so cool!
