Stitch meets High School Musical (2007)

Stitch & Co throw a dance party

Stitch meets High School Musical and a fantastic animated short that is presented on Musical School 2 DVDswhich sees Stitch and his alien companions recreating some great numbers from the musical film. Artists like Stitch, Angel, Jumba, Sparky and Wendy perfectly follow the choreography of “We’re All in this Together” as well as offering his own comedic version of the “Getcha Head in the Game” routine.

This short is just over two minutes long, but it doesn’t contribute anything to the story. Lilo and Stitch knowledge or stories, however. While It’s a fun and cute watchthere is nothing new to learn about Stitch or his story. Unfortunately, it also doesn’t include any human characters like Lilo or Nani. Stitch meets High School Musical is a good link to Musical School films, but it adds nothing to the Lilo and Stitch franchise as a whole.

Stitch and Ai (2017)

A somewhat recycled story from Lilo & Stitch

Sew and Oh It only consists of one season, which follows Stitch escaping aliens once again and returning to Earth, where he meets a young girl named Wang Ai Ling in the Huangshan Mountains. While Sew and Oh reintroduces some of the Lilo and StitchThe most notable alien charactersthe show unfortunately focuses too much on its latest experiments rather than expanding and developing the ones it already has.

Ai and Jeijie’s relationship parallels that of Lilo and Nani, one of the best sister duos in cinema history. While it’s nice to see another pair of siblings looking out for each other after their parents’ deaths, it’s a little disappointing that Sew and Oh I couldn’t diversify his character’s dynamics a little more. The animation style is also often criticized by viewersand despite airing 15 years after the original 2002 film Lilo and Stitch It is visually superior. However, with only 13 episodes, it is possible Sew and Oh he simply didn’t have enough time to get his bearings.

Stitch’s life without Lilo

Point! is the oldest Lilo and Stitch TV show, and starts in the following years Leroy and Stitch. With Lilo at college, Stitch meets another young woman, Yuna.on an island in Ryukyus. Point!The 3-season series and series of specials is a breezy watch, but despite the show’s multiple episodes over the years, it’s not as compelling as other titles in the series. Lilo and Stitch world.

Lilo’s absence is immediately obvious, and although Yuna is a very engaging character, she’s just not the same as Stitch’s first human best friend. While Point! was broadcast in the US and Canada, it was also unexpectedly removed from Disney XD in North America during its run, so many viewers aren’t as familiar with it.

Point! sees the titular character causing his trademark chaos as always, but that doesn’t make up for the fact that the show retcons the original film’s plot and that Lilo and Stitchthe heartfelt quote from “Ohana” is ignored, with Lilo leaving Stitch behind.

Leroy and Stitch (2006)

Stitch finds his red twin

While Leroy and Stitch is not as exciting and engaging as Lilo and Stitch, the last feature film in the franchise is still a decent watch. The 2006 film follows Stitch after he is honored by the Galactic Alliance, leaves Earth, and is assigned to capture the titular Leroy, an experiment identical to Stitch, except red.

Leroy isn’t exactly the most notable of Disney’s evil villains, but Leroy and StitchThe character design is quite inventive. For example, Leroy and his clones’ nervous systems shut down when they hear the Hawaiian folk song “Aloha ‘Oe.” Despite its mixed reviews, Leroy and Stitch It has many good qualities. The film’s strengths are in the rhythm and action scenes, songs like Elvis Presley and comedic moments.

It also serves as an ending to Lilo and Stitch: the seriesbut it also works well on its own and can be enjoyed by those who haven’t seen the show.

Lilo & Stitch reveals more about the experiments

The film adequately introduces the public to Jumba’s 625 experimentswhich expands the Lilo and Stitch universe brilliantly and provides more context on how they came to be.

However, the film fails to use the experiments to its advantage and there is a real lack of on-screen appearances of them. Jacques von Hämsterviel is a classic villain hellbent on world domination, and while that’s not a bad thing for a sequel to one of the best Disney films of all time, he’s a little one-dimensional.

One alien that receives significant attention, however, is Sparky. Sparky shares enough similarities with Stitch for him to be intriguing, but is also different enough that he doesn’t seem like a bad copy. Point! The film is solid enough, but realistically, it would make more sense to make it the first episode of Lilo and Stitch: the series instead of.

Audiences learn more about the creation of Stitch

The origin of the point is only four and a half minutes long and is technically a bridge between Lilo & Stitch 2: Stitch has a flaw and Point!

The origin of the pointalthough brief, he manages to find time to insert references to the hundreds of Lilo and Stitch experiments.

Stitch has a flaw takes a little Lilo and Stitchthe best elements and applies them to a story that is refreshingly and new, but also provides a sense of familiarity to viewers. The sisterly dynamic is prominent, further proving that Nani and Lilo are two of the best Disney siblings. The representation of Hawaiian culture, especially hula dancing, is also strong.

Although factors like characterization are sometimes overdone, it works for a light-hearted children’s film. Although this title focuses more on the alien side of things, it still ensures that it also establishes a lived-in atmosphere, which is why the first film is so easy to connect with.

Lilo and Stitch (2002)

Stitch’s first adventure

Of course, nothing beats the original Lilo and Stitch. The 2002 film not only introduces the titular characters to the audience, but also establishes the poignant message that at the end of a hard day, family is where you want to be. While Disney has portrayed family dynamics without parents before, Lilo and Stitch approaches this in a unique way.

Nani is the unsung hero of Lilo and Stitch; she doesn’t hesitate to show that she’s struggling to raise Lilo on her own, which is realistic and understandable, but she also never makes her little sister feel like a burden or an inconvenience.
