Answer 1

Titan A.E. is a 2000 animated sci-fi space adventure film from Fox Animation Studios and Twentieth Century Fox. The title refers to the fictional spacecraft that is central to the plot, with "A.E." meaning "After Earth."

The film's animation technique combines traditional hand-drawn animation and extensive use of computer generated imagery. The film is in color, running 94 minutes in length, and is rated PG for "action violence, mild sensuality, and brief language." Its working title was Planet Ice.

Titan A.E. was not financially successful. After it made only $9,376,845 during its opening weekend, Fox Animation Studios was shut down. The film only grossed a total of $22,753,426 in theaters. A video game in the works for PlayStation was cancelled in order to save money. It is often listed with Atlantis: The Lost Empire, Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within, The Iron Giant and Treasure Planet as an example of an animated science fiction/fantasy films that failed to attract an audience.

In the year 3028 A.D., Earth is attacked by the Drej, aliens made of pure energy. The Drej mothership destroys Earth with an energy beam just as hundreds of space vehicles (as well as the secret Titan ship with Professor Sam Tucker aboard) manage to escape with the last of humankind aboard. One of the escapees is Sam's young son Cale, who carries with him a ring given to him by his father.

Fifteen years later, Cale works on a salvage station, eking out a rough life and hating his father for having disappeared aboard the Titan so long ago. Without a home planet, surviving humans have been reduced to outer space drifters and are constantly bullied and looked down on by other space-faring races. A human captain named Joseph Korso and his pilot Akima seek out Cale and explain that he must help them find the Titan which contains a mechanism that will create a new Earth and therefore unite all of humanity. Meanwhile, the Drej want to find the Titan so that they can destroy it.

With Korso's help, Cale discovers that the ring his father gave to him contains a genetically encoded map to the Titan, and thus begins his race across the universe with Korso and his ship and crew, including Preed, a wisecracking rat-like humanoid, Gune, an eccentric, green-skinned scientist, and Stith, a tough, hard-as-nails weapons expert who resembles something of a kangaroo. Before long, Cale and Akima find out that Korso is searching for the Titan in order to hand it over to the Drej. They narrowly escape from him and Preed (who is revealed to be working with Korso), only to become stranded on a drifter station. Cale and Akima manage to repair one of the wrecked spacecraft on the station and use it to make their way to an ice field in which the Titan has been hidden, with Korso in hot pursuit.

Within the Titan, Cale and Akima discover that Professor Tucker had been one of the main architects in designing the craft. The designers, anticipating the destruction of Earth, gave the Titan the ability to create a new planet and loaded it with the DNA of every living Earth species for the purpose of repopulating the new world. Unfortunately, the ship's energy has been long since drained and it will not start up.

Korso finds and boards the Titan accompanied by Preed, and confronts Cale and Akima, but Preed turns on Korso. A confrontation follows, and Korso kills Preed by breaking his neck, then fights with Cale before falling over a railing. Cale grabs hold of Korso's hand trying to save him as Korso goads him to let him fall to his death. Cale refuses to let go, but Korso slips from Cale's grip and falls, presumably to his death. Akima and Cale, joined by Stith and eventually Gune, then work together to defend the Titan against the impending Drej attack, and Cale realizes that the energy comprising the Drej and their ships may be used to power up the Titan's systems, and they work to bring the vessel online. Korso shows up again, but unexpectedly sacrifices himself in order to bridge a jammed circuit breaker just as the Drej mothership fires a destructive energy beam at the Titan. Channeling the beam's power into its system, the Titan powers up and drains all the Drej energy, destroying the enemy mothership while it creates a new planet.

The film ends with Akima and Cale standing upon their newly-created world. Akima wants to name it "New Earth," while Cale suggests naming it "Bob." The final scene is of all the human refugees coming to the planet labeled "New Earth [Planet Bob]."



[edit] Trivia
Lit made a music video of the song "Over My Head", featuring scenes from Titan A.E.
Creed's song "Higher" was played in many of the theatrical trailers for Titan A.E., but the song did not appear either in the movie or on the soundtrack.
The film is credited as being produced using CinemaScope, when in fact it is a regular anamorphic film and does not use the long retired CinemaScope process which was notorious for causing visual problems with animated films. As with his 1997 film Anastasia, Don Bluth insisted the CinemaScope credit be used.
In the first scene when they arrived at New Bangkok, as the camera pans out, you can clearly see a Death Star-looking formation around the center of the space station.
For the "New Genesis" scene, Blue Sky Studios created the entire CGI. Blue Sky is known for feature-length animated films such as Robots, Ice Age, and Ice Age: The Meltdown. They have also done a lot of live-action work, including the 'sliding' penguin in the movie Fight Club, and the infamous talking fish on the HBO series The Sopranos.
The theatrical poster depicted Cale running forward and firing a gun. However, this film was released during the fallout of the Columbine School massacre, and movie companies were coming under heavy criticism for violence in films. As a result, for the home video release, an altered version of the movie poster was used for the box cover which depicted Cale in a similar pose, except instead of the gun, his hand was outstretched, revealing the map.
There was a problem with John Leguizamo's voice during production, as stated in the movie's Fox Kids special "The Quest for the Titan."

To think we are the only 'intelligent' life (questionable) in this vast Universe is total arrogance. It goes to show how small minded we are. (not you) So, to answer your question yes they are out there. I don't know about Roswell. If it did happen I am sure that the Government will suppress it. They have to. Thank you for a great question
