WOWIE ZOWIE

[@afroturtle989]

This movie is one of the only movies I’ve seen that attempts to have so many themes and actually does it success. It tackles parenting, identity, self confidence, respect and compromise, and probably others that I missed, while having insanely good characterization and spectacular animation. Overall it’s a damn brilliant film that I will rewatch many times.

[@thekolbaska]

A big reason all these ideas succeeded is that it stuck *very* closely to the original book. One problem I felt both the movie and book had is the predator problem. If there’s a truce and no one eats one another, carnivores starve. So, it doesn’t really work if you think about it even for a second.

[@xaviernaud5544]

Pathetic.....I cried 6 times.....

[@austinfeng735]

I'd like to add a point here. Nature is rightfully depicted as a "survival of the fittest" in Wild Robot, but there is one important exception to this which is the selfless action of parents. Making a robot, the hallmark of a "human" society, naturally become a parent in this environment, the one element of nature which inherently embraces altruism, all while showing that it is a human trait and how human technology can help nature in this same way, is very well done

[@zachrabaznaz7687]

No. It's not an exception. Selflessness is "fit"; kindness is a survival strategy. Roz and Fink say so themselves.

[@velocityraptor2890]

@@zachrabaznaz7687 that line right there is the mantra of both the move AND the book (btw there's a book this movie's based on)

[@nyonpa_999]

​Interestingly, the guy who made up the whole 'dominance' theory on wolves later found out that packs in the wild​ (not artificially formed ones in captivity) would form their social structures as Families, a more intuitive model. There is still competition amongst siblings, but the idea that altruism bonds are just a human thing is really not reflective of reality. @@zachrabaznaz7687

[@heilo263]

Parentage is not a naturally altruistic thing, it's based on someone like you surviving (literally having half your genetic makeup, and hopefully half of your teachings). Also, not all nature is survival of the fittest; intelligence separates humans from animals, and we decide whether to be selfish or work together or for others. Acts of community are why civilization dominated the planet. Unfortunately now we're reverting to our wild selfish selves, championing hyper-individuality at the expense of community.

[@tiandi5585]

My favorite quote was "I have everything I need" after Roz throws out her power core to save Brightbill. It was quick, but beautiful.

[@ainsley5843]

that line mixed with the imagery of her literally replacing her heart with him was perfect

From Lilo & Stitch to How To Train Your Dragon to The Croods and now this movie, Sanders is easily one of the greatest artists working in the animation industry.

One of the things I absolutely love about dreamworks, is they are not at all afraid to show some violence or mistreatment. It really makes them stand out from the crowd.

[@nabeelnaureen7283]

I really hate it when people call this movie "generic". I have heard poeple say that all there is in this movie is a robot trying to teach a gosling how to grow and become better and that this movie is predictable, which it kind of is, but it's predicatble in the best way possible and the people who call the story "generic" clearly can't see the bigger picture and what emotions and message this masterpiece of a movie truly holds. I definitely think that this movie should win the oscar for best animated movie for 2024. This is by far, the best Dreamworks movie in my opinion (yes, it's better than HTTYD, don't cry about it).

[@StellaPinkbird]

As a httyd fan, I completely agree with you. This movie needs to win an award

[@Fluxikator]

Yeah. Predictable doesnt have to be a bad thing. The same as unpredictable can be actually a bad thing. Best example of that is the second movie in the Disney starwars sequel trilogy.

SPOILER WARNING! I loved the reflections you see in the film. Roz running to see her son migrate at the start and then Brightbill flying to see her mom off to her migration. And then when she remembers who she is and says “But you can call me Roz”. Me and my friends were the only teens in that theater, and we were bawling 😭

[@kayleeruiz]

The Wild Robot reminded me a lot of Studio Ghibli storytelling. It’s rare for animated features to feel comfortable having emotions drive the plot. Often they always need their characters to do something, complete something. Always a call to action so the kids don’t get bored. But The Wild Robot (and Studio Ghibli films) have a more character forward approach. I figured that out when Roz’s “task” of “eat, swim, fly” was completed in the first act. After, it was a matter of following our character around and seeing them do what made sense for their development. It felt very realistic to how life actually happens.

15:42 the death jokes and the way Brightbill discovers what happened to his biological family (through bullies repeating gossip) are so blunt they're actually brutal, but they're a good counterweight to the earnestness of the message (and even highlight it tbh). like if this film didn't lean so hard into genuine themes of love and family, the dark humor would definitely not have worked at all

I haven’t been absolutely floored and stunned by a kid-friendly family film like this since I was … a kid. I took my daughters to see this and I straight up cried twice and haven’t been able to stop thinking about the complex DEEP themes this film explores. And what makes it so effective in its most powerful messages is that it states them with subtlety and guides us to the conclusions it’s trying to make on our own instead of beating us over the head with it. It’s so rare for a film in this category to have so much artistry and actually have something meaningful to SAY

[@Thaibiohazard123]

What I find thought provoking is that Roz is an AI that rewrites her code to learn empathy, humanity and parenthood. Pretty much like how humankind started out as violent cavemen, but through time, we gradually developed those things as a mean of self-preservation and survival of our community. If we could come to this point despite our beginning, then who's to say AI can't do the same when put in the right circumstances, but at a much faster pace? And Vontra said that they want something inside Roz, because it's special. Maybe, humans can't fully replicate humanity, but AI can? Is it possible to see something like Roz happen in the future?

[@WGasmss]

Took the complete wrong take away from this movie. I hope you enjoy your Ai girlfriend 👍🏼 (You almost got it) I mean the video says it “if roz and the animals can “re write” their programming to learn and work together then what’s stopping humans? It’s not about robots, it’s about robots but talking about humans.

[@Thaibiohazard123]

@WGasmss Wow, for someone pointing out about human should learn to work together, you got quite a prejudice and needless hostility towards a stranger. My life is happy with my human wife, thank you. For the record, I know what the point of this is (it's not even about robot, it's parenthood) I just think there's a thought-provoking side to this concept too, as a sci-fi nerd. Artificial conciousness is pretty common discussion among anything sci-fi and robot-related for decades. But I guess you're not up for that kinda fun, but rather attack me instead. Good for you.

you also gotta remember her voice. how it changes throughout the movie. her voice becomes less and less robotic as the movie progresses, sorta representing her progress in emotions. best representation of it i can think of is when she's talking to rummage, and starts venting about the frustrating parts of childcare and how she has no clue what shes doing.

Also you mentioned it looks like an illustration, they actually hand drew over the 3D models to give it that feeling! They indeed did mix all the art elements together!

[@VocalAlchemists]

I just saw this alone in an empty theater on (I think) the last day of it showing in my local theater. I can’t believe how exceptionally good it was. I cried throughout half the movie. And I’m crying writing this comment after watching your video 😭

[@Laura-xm5zu]

I usually watch something on my second screen while gaming. But this movie... oh my lord... i forgot all about the game and just sat there sobbing through the entire movie and forgetting all about the game. Such a great movie!

Disney: Guess what a sequel that nobody asked for Dreamworks: Let’s make a masterpiece

[@navynarupan8979]

To think this is Dreamwork's final in-house project, I now wonder how they can possibly mess it all up for the sequel.

The animais that pretend to be dead are so funny

@@renato.bakaadv hahaha I know it had me dying.

It was cliche

[@peterward8574]

Brilliant commentary on this wonderful film. Thank you for taking the time and effort for putting together your thoughts so eloquently.

[@suniledoal5881]

Amazing analysis 👏🏽 A masterpiece one of the best films I've seen a powerful emotional roller coaster of not living the life you were programmed to live and to make your own choices. The animation was magical and the story stunning 10/10.

[@TRISCORE]

i only wish kevin peakin compose this, he talent in combining orchestra + electronics

[@sanches4314]

The goose migration scene is one of the best. movie moments ever... Oscar now for best score best animation movie

About 'survival of the fittest', I once heard someone say that when social species, like humans, are thrown into the mix it becomes 'survival of the friendliest'.

[@NabhPal7]

DreamWorks works like a dream.

[@bradleyadams5252]

It's sometimes terrifying, sometimes boring, and sometimes the most beautiful and strange experience you ever had?

[@caersun]

a beautiful film. it makes you laugh at unflinching death within the first 10 minutes and then cry at the simple emotion and enormity of living life time over time. after years of Pixar and other animated features manipulating scenes for that sad tearjerker moment, the Wild Robot stands out because its most emotional moments aren’t sad - they’re loving, happy almost, so filled with solemn joy all you can do is try not to well up with emotion.

[@christinestreeter8566]

One of the better movies I’ve seen in a long time! Beautiful animation, wonderful score, and a touching storyline that had me bawling at parts.

[@Finkemeister]

The story didnt make me cry. The music and visuals did.

[@shoolcreates1999]

This movie was beautiful, there was so much more to it than I thought. Like it felt way longer than it actually was but for all the right reasons. I legitimately thought it was gonna end after Bright Bill left. And I love that in this shitty ass modern media landscape, they put money behind a movie that clearly doesn't have a ton of recognizable characters with mass merchandise appeal. I can't wait for the sequels.

THE WILD ROBOT directed by Chris Sanders also the director of DRAGON (2010) A Masterpiece. A Live version is in Production. THE WILD ROBOT is the story of ROZ who lands on an island. She must find a mission, The animals of the forest fear the presence of this ROBOT… ROZ finds an egg and finds her mission Feed the goose - swim - Fly for the fall migration. The 3D style and the rendering of the oil painting make the visual sublime. There are shots that made me think of Hayao Miyazaki’s films. THE WILD ROBOT ☆☆☆☆

[@tripleg32]

The OP might be sad then to know that The Wild Robot was the last film animated entirely in-house at DreamWorks.

[@joshhigdon4951]

I haven't heard of this one! It's it streaming or in theaters? I'll have to watch this one with the kiddos!

[@gustavoortiz6589]

It’s on digital buy for 30$ and in theaters still

[@FilmSpeak]

@@joshhigdon4951 Yep! On VOD and theaters. It's worth the purchase for sure.

[@ChillFinity2000]

you're in luck mate, it's still in theatres

[@nightglarevr]

The book is amazing, the second book is amazing, the third book is amazing, The movie is amazing

[@FastNCurious88]

Haven't seen it yet but now I really wanna watch it with my Daughter ❤ Thank you 🙏🏻 🎉

[@lzzyb0ssa]

4:07 “Motherhood” Moms: 😊 Dads:😐 Those who know:💀

[@playhard5753]

I one think I like is that after the time skip they don’t take the entire movie to admit the Roz is Brightbill’s mother. She’s not just his “caretaker.” Her voice is fully human. It doesn’t take till the end of the movie to get a “Mom” out of Brightbill.

[@AntsTheaterCorner2698]

I think this really is the end of dreamworks. They go out with a bang and their best received film of all time.

[@SkySlaysAllDay-r3z]

It was amazing, the drawings and animations were so beautiful. It made me want to visit that forest myself

[@michaelgordon2609]

1:19 clever, very clever 😏

[@dainfernalsumit]

It's not really an original IP, it's been a book for a while

[@raptorcrasherinc.9823]

This is one of my top 20 favorite movies. It is a masterpiece and the best movie to come out in years!

[@DebryanWard]

Um excuse you? Puss and boots 2 was incredible. But yes this movie is easily one of their best

[@Kelly-tt9le]

My gosh, this film has me laugh-crying and crying the entire time.

[@jamesteague_1]

This movie was like real life nature

[@connora3145]

Great review, highlighted points I never thought of and as a result I’ve realised this film was even better than initially perceived
