It's quite funny how the brave Atreyu, the warrior gets easily taken down by a scrauny kid who can't even dive off a diving board in his clown shorts.

No idea, but I'm glad he wasn't. Besides the 3rd film flat-out blowing chunks and having virtually nothing to do with Michael Ende's masterpiece, they also screwed up the characters and turned them into laughingstocks (namely Falkor and the Rockbiter). Atreyu probably would've looked like Felipe Rose had he been included in that atrocity.

Why wasnt Atreyu in the 3rd film?

Atreyu died after Bastian shoved him off the cliff. If you recall, later at Silver City, Bastian wishes Atreyu back to life (although I noticed while watching this last night that it appeared that Kenny Morrison was unable to hold his breath or something - he's clearly breathing).

He's talking about dead in THIS movie. Yes, he died, he fell down like, three stories of rock, and he was lifeless. The actor just couldn't hold his breath.

No, in the end of "The Never Ending Story" Bastian flies with Falkor through Phantasia you see all that guys waving to him, also Atreyu!
That is how it is in the German version. I've only seen the international version one time, but I can't remember this scene was left out there.

There is a board for the first movie. It just uses the German Name for some reason.

I thought he lived.
Does anyone know why there isn't a board for the first Neverending Story???

hmm okay because when Bastian was like "I wish for you to live Atreyu" I wasn't sure if he was alive or dead
