Ark(Movie, 2005)

Ark is a 2003 American-South Korean animated science fiction film directed by Subro Adonis, animated by Digital Rim. It is the flagship project for both the director and the studio. Attempting to address the failures of Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within, the film merges anime-style visuals with a faster, action-oriented plot more palatable to Western audiences. The film's plot features many archetypes taken from Final Fantasy-style Japanese console RPGs; a young male resistance fighter, a young girl with special powers who unknowingly is her planet's Messiah, an evil "right-hand man", and a small, cute pet mascot. It is the spiritual successor to Elysium (2003) which takes place in the same universe as the film. ()
