I found this while checking the older petition we created. Someone name Len Green said that :

Quote:
I worked on the first one. The best film I've worked on. One reason the film didn't make it. Amblimation was shut down and employees transfered to LA to Start Dreamworks. Since Steven S started DW it became Universals release and Universal was also sold that year. BAsicly the film was lost in the shuffle. At least that's the way we all felt about it. Only animated film finished on time and under budget. Thanks to a great director Simon Wells.


I checked if this was true, and...yes, this Len Green REALLY worked on Balto :

He even worked on a LOT of animated films, and yet he says it's the best film he's worked on! Isn't that the most beautiful thing that we can expect? :mrgreen:

He says the film was "lost in the shuffle", which is pretty much what we all knew already. He mentions that Universal was sold, I didn't know about this though...I will have to check this. But it seems that Balto was REALLY unlucky when it was released, then...

Wow..at least those who made the movie feel the same way as the fans do, it'd be awesome if they'd maybe "team up" with "us" to try and get a Special Edition Balto DVD released but I get the feeling that's a pipedream.

It's not so much a step forward T_T but it's great to hear from someone who worked on the film.

...there was a Len Green in the credits, right?

How is it a step forward for BaltoSource, may I ask? All this Len Green did was compliment the film.

Thats pretty cool but i dont think its a step forward for balto 4 cuz he probably used to work there and if he does right now i dont think they would care very much if he said that it should be a balto 4 but its really cool that he feels like all balto fans :)

Interesting find, I love it when new scraps of info are dug up like this, although I can't see how this guy liking Balto so much is a step forward and where this step forward takes us but it's great to hear words like the ones he said about working on the Balto movie all the same :)
