This scene has an inner deep meaning :

At the end, it is the love that keeps us together and safe, like the big tree is holding all the important structure. The hatred and power-hunger will destroy itself and disappear, like the building blocks and weapons of the castle.

I saw this for the first time as an adult a couple days ago. The death of the first robot, and the robot bringing the flowers to the grave, almost had me crying

[hachipanki]

My fav movie of all time, gotta love this story

Fumito Ueda's ICO near the end of the game also has that unique similar feel with the castle collapsing where the message still stands that darkness and hatred will eventually fade paving into a new light and a fresh start.

Afterward the air pirate gangs have to leave without Sheeta and Pazu, they've been busy battling Muska and they use her crystal to whispers the spell of destruction and collapse a whole castle in half, along with a trees still there.

This movie needs a prequel that takes place in Laputa before the fall of their civilization

[eggballo]

Will man ever set foot on Laputa again? Who knows.

[Luck]

I don’t care what they say Sheeta and Pazu totally just destroyed that Ecosystem cause it’s now in the Thermosphere and there’s no Oxygen or water up there

finally found it. i watched it like 15-17 years ago when i was really young and all i remembered was a flying tree going away at the end.

What I have always been thinking is this last scene is a hommage for Silent Running

[UnschoolingwithFin]

I got this movie on Apple TV and this scene has no music
But on dvd it does have music

[kubikkuratko]

Sucks to be those people under it when it fell apart

[greenman]

The machine gives a flower to the humans, because in the end humans would have lost their way completely and machines would be the only ones who remember our real essence which is sharing a moment together, that instant of love and connection which has been lost an ultimately found again.

Looks like it used to be on top of a tower or a mountain, hope it didn’t cause a Tunguska like event. I know 70 dudes who would be upset
