Treasure Planet is an  animated feature film made by Walt Disney Feature Animation, and released  on November 27, 2002. The 43rd animated feature in the  animated features canon, the film is a science fiction version of Robert Louis Stevenson’s adventure novel Treasure Island and was the first film to be released simultaneously in habitué and IMAX theaters  The film employs a novel technique of hand-drawn 2D time-honoured animation set atop three-D computer animation.

The movie prologue depicts Jim Hawkins as a three-year-old (voiced by Austin Majors) reading a storybook in bed. Jim is fascinated by stories of the legendary pirate Captain Flint and his ability to appear from nowhere, raid passing ships, and disappear in order to hide the loot on the mysterious “Treasure Planet”. Twelve years later, Jim (now voiced by Joseph Gordon-Levitt) is shown to have grown into an aloof and alienated teenager. He is shown begrudgingly helping his mother Sarah (Laurie Metcalf) run an inn and deriving amusement from “solar surfing” (a hybrid of skysurfing and windsurfing atop a board attached to a solar-powered rocket), a pastime that frequently gets him in trouble.

One day, a starship crashes near the inn. The dying pilot, Billy Bones (Patrick McGoohan), gives Jim a sphere and tells him to “beware the bionic man”. Shortly thereafter, a gang of pirates raid and burn the inn. Jim, his mother, and their dog-like friend Dr. Delbert Doppler (David Hyde Pierce) barely escape. The sphere turns out to be a holographic projector, showing a map that Jim realizes leads to Treasure Planet.
