Do you Remember Meet the Robinsons?

[@jessglane]

As an adopted person this movie just hit close to home. Whenever I felt sad because my mom left me I watched this and thought "This is just my destiny, I love my family and they love me. The past is in the past. Keep moving forward".

HA IMAGINE BEING ADOPTED! HAHA Oh wait I have no milk. Oh no..

[@aubryellaotero1064]

I was going to say basically the exact same thing as another adopted person lol

[@Diana-zl3ue]

I’m crying

[@andrewtrujillo7054]

One of my favorite Easter eggs is when Louis asks Wilbur what Wilbur's dad looks like with his response of Tom Selleck. And Tom Selleck voices the adult Lewis

[@willfanofmanyii3751]

* Tom Selleck in the audience giving a thumbs up *

[@gracebrown3074]

Since no one had mentioned it yet, when Wilbur slips on the step when going to see his mother, you can actually hear it in the first clip of the movie when we are first shown his mum. It is actually what causes her to turn around and end up leaving quickly. Just some cool time travel continuity.

[@benarts2271]

Underrated af 💯 when Lewis said “I have no future. No one wants me.” Ow! My heart 💔😆 the feels. Hell, Lewis’ roommate even became a meme (already iconic btw lol).

[@Welchy]

Bowler hat guy is a meme??!!! Not surprised tbf ahahaa

[@itsjustmaddisen]

I saw this at the movies as a kid and it made me bawl my eyes out. I remember happy crying though when he did get adopted that was one of the best moments of the film for me.

[@ma.2089]

@@Welchy it’s like 2 parts tbh. That scene where he says “everyone hates me” is the one that springs to mind the most lol

[@mahnameisj]

I loved Bowler Hat Guy so much idk why. Such a funny villain and the banter with the dinosaur was top tier 😂 Also I do love how Chicken Little has traumatised you a bit (we know you really love it)

[@Welchy]

Him and Wilbur are icons and it really has buck cluck is in my head

[@itsjustmaddisen]

He’s a goofy sort-of-villain. He made me laugh a little when I was a kid. Also the music in Chicken Little was slammin.’

[@elindayana8174]

This has always been one of my favorite movies. I'm adopted, so i know how it feels to long for a biological family. I cry every time i watch this movie. It's so beautiful! 😭💔

[@Welchy]

[@your-biggest-fan420]

lmfao same

[@peterlewis2178]

I wish you would have commented on the Walt Disney quote that they showed: "Around here, however, we don’t look backwards for very long. We keep moving forward, opening up new doors and doing new things, because we're curious… and curiosity keeps leading us down new paths". This movie definitely embodies that quote, but it's also hilariously ironic, because that quote is essentially the opposite of what Disney is today. They rarely move forward, and are always looking backwards, trying to cash in on nostalgia with live action remakes and the like.

[@ma.2089]

It’s funny cuz Disney, while being a MASSIVE entrepreneur, also took risks. Lots of his stuff didn’t pan out. In some ways he was better than the other ppl in his position, like his support for women on his staff. The creative side of Disney follows his principles likely better than him (since he IS a capitalist after all), but the executives really don’t. They finance stupid cash grabs and bank on nostalgia. The only good thing I can think of more recently they’ve done is promote Kevin Feige. Him and his team actually have creative vision and he wanted to quit cus he hated his sexist & racist boss. But even that is cuz of money since Feige and his team rake in so much money.

[@willfanofmanyii3751]

@@ma.2089 Wonder what Waltz would think of the Lucasfilm situation, lol.

[@DuskusCB]

And then you realize that the noise Lewis’s mom heard at the beginning was the current Lewis tripping at the end

[@ickylynn6155]

STOP I've never picked up on that before, but wow. That little detail!!!

[@Unicorn-min]

It's criminally underated. It's one of my top favorite animated movie

[@solmare851]

Welchy: The future ppl are too weird. Me: Makes me wonder what the past ppl would think about us... This movie is like soul food. Even if you forget it, it's kinda timeless and just tastes like sweet, sweet nostalgia. Truly underrated.

[@Welchy]

Definitely weird too

[@relicking9207]

"Is he sleep-deprived or bullied?" Yes

[@Welchy]

Yes indeed

[@ladabudilova9262]

Yes this movie is definitely underrated. Due to bad promotion and a bit of a weird concept it took many people. Off it, but the comedy and chemistry of the cast is so good! And the message, mmm

[@phantomstarsx9343]

"neither do we" about the twins is the best line in the movie 😂 I love that joke

[@RhetoricalThrill]

I remember when this came out, and unfortunately I don’t think they had faith in it. It isn’t over-the-top kiddie enough for the little ones, and it isn’t “edgy” enough for adults like Dreamworks was doing. It’s just broadly funny and wholesome. It was marketed poorly too. I remember thinking it was pure sci-fi and it’s not. I only saw it because husband worked at a Blockbuster and brought home everything new. I love when people finally discover it.

[@hotel_arcadia]

I've seen only one poster of it in Germany and the art was so uninteresting that I didn't even want to see it. Didn't help that I barely knew how to read since I was about 6 years old at the time lol

[@aliciainherwonderland9320]

Meet the Robinsons is my favorite animated movie since I was I child, no one around me knew about the movie I don't know why because is such an amazing movie and a extraordinary history

[@kurocat200]

exactly! none of my friends knew meet the robinsons too

[@nyanko7568]

This used to be my favorite movie holy crap and seeing you have chicken little ptsd is hilarious

I remember this was one of the old gems that hit me harder than the popular movies then. It was so refreshing and unique

[@alysssabear]

Meet the Robinsons is one of my favorite Disney movies ever! I’m so glad people are recognizing its awesomeness!

[@MsDgirl246]

The ending with the song always hits me. Ugh 100/100 love the movie

xDD

[@talkaboutrandon7870]

Meet the Robinsons is my favorite movie of all times. I was in bad mental health when I found out I was adopted and my mom painted it as a joke. Coincidentally, this movie came out and I felt attached to it. I'm yet successful in life but I try to keep moving forward.

[@RhetoricalThrill]

I don’t know if it was just the amazingness of this movie or you’re finally fully healthy but you seem so much happier than you have been lately. It’s nice to see. 💜

[@АнастасияАгаркина-й3э]

This movie is actually quite good) I loved the twist and the story of Cornelius)))

[@finleyknight443]

OMG yes!!

[@kamixakadio2441]

Ah yes, an underrated gem. I never forgot about it.

[@THIRTYNINEX]

I’ll never get tired of watching people react to this one 😭💕 Definitely a top Disney movie for me!

[@FreckledGoddess]

Fun fact: the man behind Meet the Robinsons; William Joyce, also was behind Roly Poly Ollie, Robots, and Rise of the Guardians. They're all amazing pieces of media.

[@shy-griff6357]

What I like about these twists, is that they don’t think they’re better twists than they are. It’s like withholding obvious information from the kids so they can have a moment of shock.

[@KindredKeepsake]

Wilbur is such a good kid. He could have potentially been ERASED FROM EXISTANCE if Lewis met his "real" mom, but he chanced it anyway. A deal is a deal.

[@aranayunsombrero9548]

This movie being recognized makes me happy, this was one of my favourite movies when i was little

[@calebray1834]

I love this movie. Criminally underrated, fun characters, a good message.

[@canan136]

This movie wasn’t a part of my childhood, but I still really enjoy it as an adult. It made me feel some emotions. Also, as a suggestion, a movie that kinda fits into this genre of animation is Robots, which WAS a part of my childhood and I relate to heavily.

[@takclaw10]

His hatred of Chicken Little is fantastic!

[@Welchy]

Don’t think it’ll ever leave ahaha

[@arturoaguilar6002]

It's a fun and wholesome movie. The way all things get pretty much tied up at the end is very satisfying. "Wow! Look what the hat has done to the world! That looks just like the UK!" lol Yep! That's our timeline...

[@sirensong237]

I love how the movie ends how it began. The mother hearing a noise and leaving him behind. But in the ending, we realize that Luis slipping was the sound the mother heard. Something that breaks minds, is that Luis’s journey is a closed loop. Always the sound that scares the mother away, and always Luis slipping and scaring her off. For a movie about time travel, this was a nice detail

[@daj_music123]

This movie is so amazing, yet so underrated. WHY!? THIS MASTERPIECE NEEDS MORE ATTENTION!!!!!!!!! 😭😭😭

[@Kait_B_]

This was one of my favorite movies as a kid. I always used to quote the t-rex lol, "I have a big head and little arms. I'm just not sure how well this plan was thought through."

[@videohistory722]

Anyone else realize that Future Lewis most likely woke up in that cold sweat to build the time machines because of the events that happened in this movie? Too farfetched, you say? Consider: He remembered what he'd done to Goob, and was planning on going back in time to fix it, because he felt guilty. Only Goob beat him to it.

[@brianneporchak3023]

I saw a theory that you can see both Lewis's bio mom and Mildred as bridesmaids in Lucille's memory scan. Also, this movie is definitely a favourite for those of us who are adopted...lol

[@the_nikster1]

I LOVE this movie! it's criminally underrated and always hits me in the feels, especially the end. I always get choked up when Lewis/Cornelius gets adopted and they play that montage. it's so freaking wholesome! don't get me wrong, I really enjoy when you rip movies apart and roast them but it's also really nice to see you enjoy something too ❤️

[@danielgiovanniello7217]

That fact that this movie has a 64% critic score and only a 75% audience score on Rotten Tomatoes is criminal. It's so underrated.

[@Yana-rk4hm]

Yooo I love this movie, I watched it a lot when I was younger cause my older brother liked it too. I was pretty sorry for Goob tho cause being sleep deprived sucked however I am also sleep deprived most of the time but I couldnt give a shit

[@merryn96]

This is one of my favourite Disney movies ever, probably in top 10, I'm so glad to see you react to it 😍 it gets forgotten so often, but the message is very strong and more people need to hear it. Plus the comedy? ICONIC

[@Diana-zl3ue]

I watched this a lot as a kid but watching now I couldn’t hold back tears. The fact Wilbur risked his entire existence by taking his dad back to the past, It’s very heartwarming ❤️

[@phantomstarsx9343]

I REMEMBER IT! This was one of my favorite movies and it still has so much heart I love this movie

[@an683ok9]

You should react to Laika movies. They're so good and immensely underappreciated! My personal favorite is Kubo and the two strings

[@RhetoricalThrill]

Kubo is amazing and so beautiful.

[@cristinarancano471]

I would lose it if he reacted to Kubo that movie is SUPER underrated I remember I didn’t watch it in theaters bc the trailer made it look like it wasn’t that great but then my friend told me it’s epic and we watched it on Netflix. I nearly cried the story and the message is so beautiful

[@quilaviper]

Schaffrilas Productions actually made a video on Meet The Robinsons pretty recently, too! Worth checking out if you haven't already. Glad to see this classic getting more attention

😊

[@Echonillina]

I remember my primary school was about to go on holiday so for the last day they gave everyone 3 options for movies and three classrooms where set up as screening rooms for each film. Can't remember, but I think Ice Age 2 was one of the options, something else, and this movie. Imagine a class of little kids laughing their heads off at the frog/dino bit and we all shout "He's got a family!" when he finally got adopted.

[@pamayapaya]

ME!!! I REMEMBER!!! Seriously this was my favorite Disney movie as a kid because I think I was about 6 when it came out and to this day I still love and rewatch it often

[@jj.loveli]

The only part that I remembered from this movie was the "I have a big head and little arms" bit. I say it almost all the time. I absolutely loved this movie!

[@ashleypenn7845]

This is such a funny wholesome movie. I always get a little misty-eyed by the end.

[@XEvilFoxX]

I forget when exactly this came out, but me and my best friend to this day still make references to the T-Rex scene. 👌

[@Reya_Sunshine]

omg I just realized..."Annoying little girl" 3:32 I'd like to think Wilbur just gets cuffed to the back of the head randomly later on and never realizes why

[@patriciomejia1114]

There is no Chicken Little in Ba Sing Se.

[@rabbitgirl1187]

I recommend "Spirit: Stallion Of The Cimarron". Its a DreamWorks film and one of my favs alongside How To Train Your Dragon. It's an underrated film and there aren't many reactions to this film compared to other DreamWorks films. I feel like you'd enjoy it.

[@hummus_exual]

No because Louis being Wilbur’s dad was the biggest plot twist of my childhood

[@videohistory722]

Another neat little Easter egg: if you pay really close attention to the sounds in the opening scene, and the scene where Lewis goes back in time to see his mom, you'd realize that they actually sync up perfectly, in that Lewis was the noise that spooks his mom, as well as the one who knocked on the door in the beginning, after he'd already done everything.

[@DiogoChris]

Oh my goodness!!😩 I loved this movie so much ❤

[@clarkstrange2142]

This is Disney's Megamind in my mind, such an underrated gem

[@draconis17]

True mindblow is your second watch where you realize the sound that spooked his mother off at the very beginning of the movie was Lewis the whole time This was always the timeline

[@meanyapickles]

Even just seeing the ending through your reaction, I still started to tear up. It's such goofy movie with so much heart, and it has a neverending supply of curveballs. You picked up on some of the twists ahead of time, but when I first watched this I had no idea that Lewis was the father or that Goob was Bowler Hat Guy up until the reveal. Doris betraying Goob, the science fair judges being Lewis' parents, the "Keep Moving Forward" quote being from Walt Disney himself... every twist got me despite any foreshadowing AND they all make perfect sense! Modern Disney's Twist Villains for The Sake of Having A Twist Villain could learn a thing or two!

[@user-fm4ip7lo8u]

What gets me about time travel movies is that they always start a time loop! Once you start a loop, it *never ends* and you're going to be seeing yourself everywhere!

[@whalexxro1354]

It's sad that a lot of people don't remember this movie, because this is one of my favorite movies, especially when I first saw it during my childhood. I found out that I was adopted at a very young age, and I was never ashamed to say it, when I found out my parents thought I was going to hate them for "having lied to me", but it wasn't like that, I wasn't that kind of kid. When I saw this movie for the first time I already knew that I was adopted and it hit me different, this movie for me has a lot of emotional meaning as well as I think it teaches incredible values. I was a little girl who was just happy to have a family while watching this movie.

[@justin_g6187]

The "◽?" In goobs diary really got me idk why

[@zivaroseval7781]

The Nowler Hat guy reminds me of the villain from Lazy Town

[@JeanetHenning]

I also just want to point out that this was made by Disney as a tribute to Walt Disney who they felt always kept moving forward. I think they actually mentioned it in the credits as well. :-)

[@peterlewis2178]

Kind of ironic, though, since Disney has strayed far from that philosophy today (cough live action lion king cough cough...)

[@imamayo5405]

[@personofinterest3682]

Possibly my favorite Disney movie. My family watches it at least once a year.

[@DarkFallen001]

I remember being a young kid and saw this once in theaters after having helped, or while currently helping one of my distant grandmothers on my mom's side. This movie was one of my most defined memories as a child, along with seeing The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe fresh out in theaters with my class. It was such a blast and had me so full of hope for Lewis, and maybe even myself with that ending sequence and the Walt Disney quote. As a kid I never went to the movies often, even the drive-thru one we had in the next town over, but the times I did it felt like I'd experienced so much by seeing characters on the big screen have adventures.

[@thruthemotions]

The title of this vid made me tear up and feel old as hell. Robots, Ratatouille and Meet The Robinsons are underrated and under appreciated films. I request every reaction youtuber to watch this movie all the time. The disney movies back in the day had a message.

[@ShokkZPlayZ]

i love how the movie gave the answer to the end at the beginning without many noticing at the first watching, you hear him slip at the beginning without even seeing it and the mother running away without knocking, and at the end you actually see what caused the noise and who knocked

[@MoonshineWolf32]

I remember it and that's all that matters. I love this movie 😂

[@Skimmer951]

I watched this movie when I was at a really low point in my life. School failed and I just felt very directionless in life and feeling like a massive failure. Then I watched this movie and that message, that message got my very core, to not obsess over your mistakes, move forward. It has stuck by me to this day.

This movie is my goto comfort movie. Sometimes when I just want a fun time and happy ending I rewatch it still.

[@Lancelot82923]

[@ValenArtsAnimation]

Fun fact: originally, instead of showing Bowler hat guy the future where Doris betray him, Lewis would take him to the Baseball game which resulted in him waking Goob up so he won the baseball game and then he disappeared alongside Doris. I'm glad they changed it in the final cut tbh, cause Lewis being the one to wake up Goob at the baseball game really show his character growth

I've seen this movie so many times. It's incredibly watchable and just plain enjoyable.

[@notleon.k8478]

Love this movie, not forgetful at all.

[@whatwilliwatch3405]

Our family loved Meet the Robinsons when it came out! It was just so goofy and fun and well-written, and Bowler Hag Guy was a hoot. And the message was a good one - to move forward in spite of failure. Bowler Hat Guy was the example of what could happen when you obsess over the past, but because he was funny, the lesson could be learned in an appealing manner (and I appreciated Lewis taking the time to do right by him and wake him up when he went back to the present). What adds an additional layer of enjoyment, though, is watching the behind the scenes. The director of the movie was Stephen Anderson. He himself was adopted, and was faced with the same choice Lewis was: seek out his biological relatives, or accept that his adopted family was his true family. I think that personal connection to the story really allowed him to add a layer of authenticity to the film. Oh, and he voiced Bowler Hat Guy, too. If you've got about 20 minutes to spare, here's a link to the behind the scenes featurette: kzbin.info/www/bejne/n5q5YoKimMeloas . It's worth a watch.

[@whatwilliwatch3405]

Another fun fact: the book this movie was based on is called A Day with Wilbur Robinson. It's written by William Joyce. Guess what else he wrote? The Guardians series, which is what Rise of the Guardians was based on.
