They definitely could've done better with this movie. The special effects in this movie are pretty subpar, considering even the first one was more convincing. You'll notice right off that Falcor is an animatronic head, and that it's a figurine tied to a string when he flies anywhere. You can also tell when Bastian is replaced with a figurine or when he is behind a green screen. And when I think about how great the effects in Star Wars were, this movie being released ten years later is insulting. This makes me believe this movie was just produced half-heartedly without any real care for the series. Bastian is a pretty good role, and the actor who plays him pulls it off successfully, but Atreyu comes off as a cyborg.
I remember watching these movies religiously as a child. When I purchased this movie, I had high hopes. Unfortunately, I was let down.
