Find out what kind of being is Stitch, the pet that Lilo adopts in “Lilo & Stitch”, a 2002 film that will gain a live-action adaptation soon
Those who watched “Lilo & Stitch”, a movie released by Disney in 2002, were able to follow the duo’s friendship journey. In the plot, the two form a strong connection after the Hawaiian little girl finds Stitch in a local kennel and decide to adopt him, not knowing that, in fact, her new pet is not a dog.
What is Stitch?
In the movie, the two live dangerous adventures until Lilo discover the real nature of his new best friend: Stitch is an alien scientific experience illegally created by Jumba Jookiba, chief scientist of the Galactic Defense Industry.
Becoming the first guinea pig of a new species created based on the concepts of experimental genetics, Stitch was originally identified as “Experiment 626”, and its main feature is a chaos agent, as it was shaped to destroy all what it touches – and that’s all it does until you know Lilo.
Destroyer, so that he could achieve his goals he would have to have a strong body, so Jumba made him indestructible, as he resists shots and fire, thinks faster than a supercomputer, can see in the dark and move objects 300x his weight.
The alien can still manipulate plasma, a substance used as ammunition on weapons and equipment. This action can be seen in the scene where he is attacked by Jumba in the house of Lilo and Nani, where Jumba throws plasma against Stitch, but the blue alien can hold the energy projectiles and shape them with his own paws, leaving them with a round shape and throwing him back to jumba, causing great damage.
Why does Lilo decide to adopt Stitch?
In the animation, not knowing that Stitch had hidden two of his paws and antennas to look more like a dog, Lilo decides to adopt him to have a faithful friend who would never abandon her, since the little girl had no friendships, had lost her parents and her sister was always busy trying to handle all the obligations that imply Lilo’s creation.
It is worth mentioning that, for Stitch, the adoption came at the right time! This is because, the United Galactic Federation had banned to an arid asteroid by considering it a threat due to its potential for destruction and, accidentally stopping on Earth, was hunted by jumba and agent Pleakley, who should take him back without drawing the attention of humans.
Thus, the two become perfect for each other, since while she keeps him away from the alien duo, he became someone she could share her obsessions: being a fan of Elvis Presleytaking pictures and, of course, feeding fish – besides living several other new adventures, since from terrorizing bathers to accidentally set fire to a restaurant, Stitch was always getting into new problems.
Still, by learning the concept of Ohana, which means family, Stitch is willing to leave the days of destruction in the past and can change his seventeen to Earth, living with Lilo, Nani, Pleakey and Jumba while learning to reduce his level of evil – which was very high to the size he had!
The story has become one of Disney’s classics, and as a result, will gain a live-action adaptation next Thursday, 22, which brings Chris Sanders as co-director next to Dean Fleischer Camp and also the dubbed of Stitch, and Maia Kealha as Lilo; See the trailer:
