  • So the leviathan had tentacles? Or was there also a Kraken?

  • I like this opening, though was I the only one who thought that when the Leviathan showed up got reminded of the Kraken? And how did the Shepard Journal end up in Iceland if it got chucked into the water? Either way, a lovely opening that could've been used in between the sinking of Atlantis and the actual start of the movie.

  • If there were 3 leviathans in the feature opening, what happened to them? Why is there only one now? :o

  • THE....MOST.....EPIC....INTRO.­...:EVER! :D

  • Holy shit, that was kinda amazing. Subtitles instead of inexplicable English and onscreen deaths for the win. This would've been a much better opening, with the "fall" scene that explains everything placed later in the movie so we'd be totally in the dark about what we were gonna see when we finally got to Atlantis. The problem though, is the journal falling into the ocean. Even if somehow it didn't get lost forever floating out there, it would've been completely ruined by water damage.

  • I liked the scene, but I think it would have been weird if it was left in the movie. Also, it has some issues in it. 1. I don't think the Leviathan had tentacles like that, and it almost seemed like there were two of them. 2. If the book had fell into the water, it likely would have been ruined and lost forever.

  • @jnor2096 it's a MAGIC WATERPROOF book ffs :D

  • @jnor2096 1. The Leviathan does have tentacles. When they come together, they make the electric blast thing. It's in the Atlantis complete Visual Guide I have. :P

  • @generalgrievous101 awesome I didn't know there was a book like that!

  • ive seen enough hentai to know where this is going

  • HEIGULL! SIGLDU ÁFRAM!

  • Don't mess with Atlantis.

    Didn't you see the signs? "No trespassing."

  • Fantastic...i never see this part of Atlantis...There is nothing else to say...is the best disney film :)

  • @Crescviper It's a cool movie, but the best? The critics tore it apart.

  • @patu8010 So? i don't care if the critics didn't liked it. It was an awesome movie. That's it!

  • @vajksziget7a Okay, cool.

    But not the best ever made.

  • This scarred the shit out of me when I was seven.

  • Wait.. tentacles... Kraken?

  • funny how they are looking for a City lost at sea with a boat

  • Can someone tell me where i can find the icelandic manuscript for this scene?. I cant find it anywhere on the web, Only English Subtitles. Isländska är ett helvetes vackert tungumål måste jag bara säga!!.

  • @Svitjod100 svensk????

  • @thornbadd japp

  • Oh, i remember that when that thing grabbed the viking i got really scared as a kid :P heh

  • the leviathan is a guard of atlantis right, so why was he when you see the movie where the wave comes to atlantis you see 3 leviathans where they also a warmachine for atlantis ?

  • @Nutcase1571 Pretty much, you could think this way the leviathans used to be giant air machines built for war along with the minature ones build for ppl, when the wave hit cause of their size they couldnt out fly it. so in war terms.. Leviathans:zepplins. and Minature machines: fighter planes.

  • @Nutcase1571 For crying out loud, speak English! I couldn't understand a single part of your comment!

  • DO YOUR WORST '' leviathans head'' : OK IF YOU WAN'T TO

  • Haha "DO YOUR WORST!!!" *mast to the face*

  • the leviathan is the most awesome disney monster ever.

  • one question how did the vikings expect to make it to the city when they couldn't really go under water?

  • OK, why didn't the Leviathan use its nuke-powers to destroy the boat? For that matter, why didn't it use it to destroy the Ulysses?

    Anyway, I like the other intro better. For one thing, it fills us in in the story of Atlantis, and for another, it's just cooler to see Atlantis in all its glory than it is to see a couple of vikings get owned by something vaguely resembling the Leviathan. ( Tentacles? Why?)

  • @JimJava007

    I am just curios so what is Nuke-power ? x)

    maybe he wanted a bit of a "challenge" x) (not mutch of that in this fight) or just "play" with them x) I dont know

    But serious what is Nuke-power? :)

  • @levi92l that isn't nuke power, the leviathan is armed with a particle beam cannons (particle weapons are deadlier than nukes)

  • The leviathan doesn't play around, after killing the crew it blows up the ship! Btw I never could understand why it had tentacles in this but not in the movie.

  • @PrimevalHunter300 It DID have tentacles in the movie; they were what the Leviathan used to shoot lightning from its mouth.

    Bare in mind, though, this Leviathan is a lot smaller than the one in the movie.

  • @hell5309

    You know that this Leviathan is the same Leviathan that is in the movie :) I know that the Leviathan in this short vidio is smaler but if you see the movie one day you can excly see that when the Leviathan is hidding from the submarine it is growing biger and biger. :)

    So in the end the Leviathan has the

    opportunity to make himslelf bigger and more powerful!

  • @levi92l I know it was supposed to be the same Leviathan. However, I believe you're mistaken in the idea that the Leviathan grew before attacking the submarine; I saw the movie (and the scene you described) and saw no indication to believe that the Leviathan grew before attacking them.

  • @hell5309

    I have always thought that the Leviathan grew bigger when he is hidding from the submarine and the "people"

    Maybe I am mistaken. but he shure does looks smaller when he swims under the submarine in the beginning of that scene compared to when he attacks them.

    he looks a "lot" smaller when he swim under the submarine in the movie. maybe I am wrong. I dont know!

    :)

  • @levi92l You are wrong. What you saw was an optical illusion.

    The Leviathan was far away from the submarine when it swam under it and hid from it in the rock stacks; as a result, it appeared to be smaller than it actually was. In reality, the submarine was about 1/6 the length of the Leviathan. And given that the submarine, by my calculations, was roughly 600 feet long, that means the Leviathan would be 3600 feet long, incomparably large compared to the Viking longboat.

  • @hell5309

    Serious, okei :) then I am wrong.

    But then why didnt he just attack the submarine att once.

    instead of hidding himself !

  • @levi92l It was either for dramatic effect or for the sake of a sneak attack.

  • @hell5309

    Okei, thats probably it :)

  • @levi92l the leviathan is a predator, it stalks its prey studies it and assesses the threat potential of its prey then moves in for the kill, it kills either by ripping apart the target with its mighty pincers or obliterates it with its particle beam weapon (its not a laser cause its stronger than such a thing, look how big the explosion was when he used it on the viking ship, lasers don't cause explosions when destroying a target)

  • @warbossgrotsmasha23

    Okay thanks :)

  • @warbossgrotsmasha23

    okey great explosion because of particle beam cannon i see. but why is he not using it aginst the submarine and what was that at the beginning of the movie? looked like nuke too. Did the crystal itself shoot? Or all of the Leviathans togehter? xD

  • @TheMrWhitmore the leviathan did use his beam weapons against the submarine and it tore the sub apart...the explosion at the beginning of the movie was some powerful atlantean weapon cause it looked like something stronger than a nuke, atlantean technollogy revolves around that living crystal of theirs, the so called "heart of atlantis" and in no way on atom power although they might have as well master nuclear energy

  • @warbossgrotsmasha23 i know that it used it aginst the sub too. But why did it not explode like a Nuke like the little viking boat?

  • @TheMrWhitmore i think because of the depth, the viking boat was obliterated on the surface of the water and such there were no pressure to compress the explosion while the sub was anihilated at a greater depth were water pressure is big

  • @warbossgrotsmasha23 ah okey thanks for explaining :)

  • 1:31

  • I'm assuming the leviathan got a 25 kill streak.

  • lobster fucks dat shit up blat blat and just to kick them in the balls they decide to use a pulsatron laser

  • All that just to destroy a boat out of wood? haha it's like nuke a match haha

  • the current intro for this movie, it's cool, but still, WE SHOULD'VE HAD THIS, I know it looks violent, but at least it would have made disney more dark and serious

  • Okay, does anybody know why this beginning didn't appear in some versions while others (like the Norwegian version) did? And which other versions used this beginning anyways?

  • @darkheart9668 The Norwegian version probably used it because Norwegians have actual Viking heritage and it would have been more relatable to them. Personally, I think the producers should have started with the released opening, and then shown this scene as a tie-in to Milo's speech.

  • So violent for a Disney...

  • !:38 He's a CHARGIN HIS LAZER

  • thats appear from the scene of the kraken in Pirates of caribean 2 xD

  • I guess he was mistaken.

  • Someone needs to make a bootleg and splice this in

  • heyguut

  • LOL im norwegian and I didnt almost understand anything of what they where saying xD

  • @Valuablebraathen568 i am norwegian to, but they used this version in the norwegian version right?

  • @1993truls yeah they did

  • @Valuablebraathen568 LOL i am from Denmark Norway isnt that bad meny cartoons in our newspapers come from Norway and it is good cartoons but Sweden sucks LOL

  • @obenrob Amen to that! Norway got the Black Metal, we got the vikings. what does Sweden have? Basshunter? :P

  • @Krobeles YES sweden suck

  • omg really coool!!!!!!! cool! cool! cool! lol ... its very interesting!!!!!!! lol

  • Do your worst! boom dead

  • man I'm a huge huge fan of monsters and the Leviathan is amazing I love Disney's version.

  • I looked into it and found out that this was the first part of the into. After the ship was destroyed, the destruction of the city happened. It was all one part but in later production was split into two and only half was used.

  • @daviddarkmaster

    They should have kept it in; it would explain the journal better, add more to the Atlantis characters history and past, and go into the Villains plans more. When Milo talks about the missing page they show us the same pages as in this intro. They must have already completed that scene before this part of the intro was cut.

    Once again Disney has failed to up=hold its greatest tradition; HAVING THE ELEMENTS OF A PROPER STORY!

  • It sounds like an horrible mix of all the Scandinavian languages D: But hey, i understood what he said and that's cool :D

  • @enkopingsbo it is icelandic

  • @enkopingsbo It's Icelandic if you didn't know

  • This was used when i saw it on cinema.

  • @childkillerpro what country did you see it in, they might have an intro thing for different countries.....and I think America should've used this intro

  • You gotta admit, sometimes Disney is simply awesome (Leviathan)

  • Well, if they were only going to use one opening they probably made the right choice. But they should have used both.

  • they should've used both prologues

  • This opening was the best part of the entire film, and they changed it to some total piece of shit.

  • ya no whats funny i can speak that language

  • @bool92 Hey! me too! :)

  • How come I recognize this like I saw it yesterday and still I'm just as certain that I've never seen any alternate opening for Atlantis before?

  • @Kotlettbengt It was in the 'trial by fire' game and some other atlantis-related promos.

  • @Kotlettbengt the exact same thought hit me

  • I love the linguistic spin the put on this movie.

    just warms my inner linguistic enthusiast.

  • he says do your worst so at 1:40 i think he did the worst :p

  • I like this opening way better!

  • What they should have done was used the opening released in theaters (with the title), then shown this prologue and made it seem like Milo was describing this in rehearsing his presentation.

  • @hell5309 I agree!

  • ??? I'm confused this is the opening scene for my copy of Atlantis. And I got it when it sorta first came out. more than a few years ago that's for sure

  • "Do your worst!!" *crunch*

  • by great odins raven!

  • and the guy at 1:18 like cookie?

  • is it me or the leader kinda looks like whitmore?

  • DR OCTAGONAPUS!!!

  • u know, those tentacles that the Leviathan used against the ship are the same ones it uses to fire it's laser

  • THEN, he used his fight money to hier some badass Vikings,

    and then, they tryed to find Atlantis on his boat.

    And then, a giant metal Lobster beat the crap out of every single one!

    And from that day forward any time a bunch of sailers are together in one place it's called a SHIP!... UNLESS IT'S A SUBMARINE!

  • @patrick12522 lol TF2 soldier reference

  • 1:30 EPIC FAIL..

  • 1:40 was a bit of  an overkill, but oh well

  • 1:15- what a idiot. I would never have done that if a giant lobster jumped over "my" boat. XD

  • Why deleted from this scene??????

  • Comment removed

  • i think that the leader is too greedy to risk all the lives of his crew (in the guide it says one member of the crew survives.)

  • @salaka0mason Ironically, he got almost everyone else on the ship killed by the Leviathan; he was the one that got them into that mess and yet got himself killed by a falling mast post instead.

  • I wondering about what`s happen under the water ::S:S (Poor vikings) the Leviathan could have killed them in a slightly different way.

    I mean, just look for you that it was you who was on that boat. scary ... it is in such situations that you wish you had a broom (flying broom) XD :D ;)

  • Comment removed

  • idk, i kinda agree that this intro should have been used. i personally think it's more exciting, especially the part where the Vikings get owned xD

  • One issue though is that the journal would of not survived in the ocean, its amazing it existed to 19th century

  • Comment removed

  • Comment removed

  • Okay, here's what I don't like about this: whoever animated this decided that a Viking longboat and the submarine Ulysses were the same size, in spite of the fact that that boat was roughly 90 feet long, while the Ulysses was nearly 400 feet long.

  • lol, in the end it is not who animated it that made that decision, it is who directed it. And, whats the big deal anyways, the monster's size comparison difference is greater with the longboat compared to the sub. So personally I dont know what the problem is, lol

  • maybe it was a smaller leviathen

  • you mean the Leviathan's smaller claws... he had smaller claws in the front... they were tiny things = /

  • Comment removed

  • Mmm cool prologue. I like it better than the other one, but this one doesn't explain as much as the one in the movie.

  • Though it would make things more mysterious.

  • good old Atlantis its still a good movie even 8 years after its been released

  • Man this was really cool I think they should of used this instead....I am Norwegian and Icelandic myself soo this is cool to see

  • no its Icelandic using some old words

  • I don`t get why they call it alternate beginning.When I watched this movie on VHS this scene was included.

  • I saw the same movie on VHS and don't remember this.

  • much better than the other prologue! epic!

  • This is EPIC!

    The leviathan was actually a sea dragon, but oh well! It's even more cool when it's a lobster

  • lol

    actually levianthan means crocodile in hebrew!

  • Pretty epic for a Disney movie.

  • This is a bit violent for the beginning of a Disney movie I think

  • Well ... Disney movies were quite different just a few years ago, but now a lot of them have to be 'nice' ...

  • In the movie they were attacked by the Leviathan, a mythical monster that in legend guarded the city of Atlantis. Not this Jormungandr you speak of.

    Also, it is a cartoon. Don't take it so seriously. Disney wasn't the first to take creative liberties with the story of Pocahontas (and they certainly weren't the last) and the Viking helmet thing...Who cares? Really?

  • Jormungandr is REAL and he wraps himself around the WHOLE world...he could TOTALLY kick the Leviathan's ass.

  • I was just saying that whenever there's an Atlantis, there's a Leviathan. They're a packaged deal. Still, I'll look up Jormungandr. Sounds like a badass. :)

  • Hey, does someone know what language they are speaking?

  • a made up one

  • No, it's Norse.

  • what is norse?

  • Norse is the language of ancient Norway/Scandanavia.

  • I know that idiot.

  • then why the fuck did you ask?

  • Actually they are speaking a mix of Norse and Icelandic

  • in that case Cali boy,care to translate?

  • why would I need to translate the words are on the bottom of the bloody screen

  • you know they're both pretty good but maybe, just a thought, would have been to put them both together; like the original one and then this one and then people would know about everything!!! lol but the movie is already in its ninth year so lol oh well...

  • If this original opening blended with the new opening, then this would explain where did the Shepard's Journal come from first before it was found by Prof. Thatch's (Milo's Grandfather) crew.

  • The Kraken, lol best carton movie ever

  • the original one is better!

  • cool
