[[WMG: Rourke killed Milo's grandfather.]]
They never say exactly ''how'' Milo's grandfather died, just that he "died a broken man". Also, it's implied that both the grandfather's death and the previous expedition happened relatively recently. Plus, it's revealed that Rourke tore out a page from the Shepherd's Journal, so it's likely that Rourke and the grandfather got into a fight over it. It's been shown that Rourke can punch hard enough to cause internal bleeding if the victim is elderly, so maybe Rourke punched Milo's grandfather, and, if his esophagus wasn't damaged, just claimed he had a heart attack. And since this was 1914, nobody was going to perform an autopsy that would reveal otherwise. [[note]] My older brother came up with the theory, but, unfortunately, I don't remember all of the points he made. [[/note]]

* One of those highly advanced empires was the city of R'lyeh, whose god didn't take kindly to the Atlantians attack on his city and washed it away.



[[WMG: Atlantis was destroyed by [[Franchise/CthulhuMythos Cthulhu.]]]]
The Atlantians used their advanced technology to curbstomp the weaker civilizations like the Greeks and the Aztecs, but were suddenly stopped when they came up against the island state of R'lyeh. In desperation they tried to utilize the crystal as a weapon of war, destroying R'lyeh, but angering the sleeper, who rose up and laid waste to Atlantis, sinking it beneath the waves just as his own worshipers had been. The survivors built the Leviathan to try and mimic the monsters that had destroyed them.

* Rourke didn't know that he would be doing anything worse than grave-robbing, and was legitimately sad after his crew died. That said, he likely would have killed them all if they protested the mission anyway.

The king says to Milo that "In my arrogance I sought to use it [the crystal] as a weapon." The crystal was ''incredibly'' pissed off by that, and so it decided to take away the Atlantian's warmongering abilities. One of the things it did to accompish this was to take away the Atlantian's ability ot read so that they would no longer be able to operate their war-machines, but instead would have had to rebuild their civilization's traditions and things from the ground up. If you have a machine that catches fish, but you don't know how to use it anymore, and you can't read the instrucion manual, then you're going to have to spend more time learning how to catch fish a different way so you don't starve is my thinking. By the time Milo got to Atlantis, the people had shifted their priorities, and the crystal let them relearn how to read because they were no longer a war-race.[[hottip:*: Note, I did not say "[[ProudWarriorRaceGuy Warrior Race]]"- they're still ''that'', but they do not feel a need to go to war to feel superior.]]

It looks less like an actual squid or octopus for that matter and looks more like something out of the mind of H.P. Lovecraft. Not to mention it has the ability to control people. Oh and the tentacles. Lots and lots of tentacles.

Think about it. Pig Pen Had no name (everyone calls him Pig Pen) and Peanuts comic strip is populated by mentally ill geniuses: Lucy Van Pelt the sociopathic quack doctor that nevertheless knows a bit too much about psychiatry and manipulation for a kid her age and fell in love with the music genius Schroeder; Linus van Pelt the super strong and coordinated boy that memorized the Bible with photographic memory but believes in The Great Pumpkin and carries the blanket that he can use to slice off tree branches, hit coins in mid air and use as a sling David vs Goliath Style; Schroeder the music genius (I don't remember his mental illness); Peppermint Patty the athletic sports prodigy with learning disabilities and our favorite man Chuck Brown, whose genius is mostly hidden by his depression, but he did get the beat up natural Christmas tree instead of the aluminum one, meaning he is smarter than he-or others-give him credit for. This calls for and Atlantis/Peanuts crossover.

[[WMG: The Heart of Atlantis wants to rule the world (again)]]
At the beginning and the end of the movie, we see the amazing power of the Heart - a vast, ancient, no-longer-human intelligence made up of the intellects of Atlantis' past rulers, of which Kida is merely the newest and smallest part. So why did it meekly allow itself to be crated for transport to the surface? ''Maybe it wanted to go.'' Imagine the unveiling to the generals in Washington (or Berlin) of the new superweapon... which promptly declares itself God-Emperor and takes the city (despite the surprised and very brief resistance of the natives) to be the capital of the new Atlantean Empire.

Well, rather created a precursor to Godzilla. Maybe, just maybe, they had several dinosaurs who were exposed to the Heart of Atlantis and those creatures would later mutate and grow in size, developing the ability to breath blue streams of energy and heal wounds in a short matter of time, much like the smaller crystals the Atlanteans wear, either over a long period of time or through some nuclear reaction.

The race that built Treasure Planet is possibly one of the most advanced cultures in the Disney Animated Canon, so they could have made the Heart of Atlantis and either lost it on Earth, or they could have given it to the Atlanteans for some reason.
