What happens

Titan A.E. is a 2000 American animated post-apocalyptic science fiction action film directed by Don Bluth and Gary Goldman, and starring Matt Damon, Bill Pullman, John Leguizamo, Nathan Lane, Janeane Garofalo, and Drew Barrymore. Its title refers to the spacecraft central to the plot with A.E. meaning "After Earth". The animation of the film combines traditional hand-drawn created animation with the extensive use of computer-generated imagery. The film tells the story of a young man who receives a mission to save humanity and protect the giant spaceship Titan that can create a new planet, after a hostile alien species have destroyed the planet Earth. Along the way, he joins up with a ship's crew and their captain, who help him race against time and find the ship, before the aliens can destroy it. Theatrically released on June 16, 2000, by 20th Century Fox in the United States as the third and final project produced by Fox Animation Studios, Titan A.E. received mixed reviews from critics, with praise for its visuals and animation but criticism for its characters and plot. The film was also a box office disappointment, grossing $36.8 million against a budget of $75–90 million. It has since become a cult classic. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
