They should make a whole movie out of this and show us more about his adventure in the city.

5:21 it doesn't have to move slowly. It is fully capable of moving at faster speeds. It goes slow to scare the other robots. A hint that not only is the giant crane robot conscious, it also gets a twisted satisfaction out of its job.

The sad part is, the bulldozer was planning to stay, he definitely knew the raft wasn't big enough

I like how even the security camera robot seems to be afraid of the claw, you see him flinch when it grabs the steamroller.

Child friendly edition of escaping north korea

This short is so epic that it's literally like a full length feature film that's only 6 minutes and 40 seconds long. Big thumb *up.*

[fasme]

Reminds me of The Iron Giant. Sure wish they'd do a sequel to that one. I like the sentimentality of both of these productions. Thanks!

[lonestrider]

This is awesome!
Reminds me of Wall-E

Robots in this show, shows more emotion than most of tiktok reality show actors

[allisonjames]

Very sad for the little bulldozer 😢 Great story, well done. Very captivating

[Vertcus]

people in city: eeew how did a trash bot get in the city send it back to the dump
robot: :(

[Scribbros]

This was sad, but heart warming. Keep up the amazing work.

[andywhiteley]

Brilliant short film, glad I watched it. Appreciation of great story, animation, models, textures, simulations, rendering. Congrats to all involved!

[Gearz-]

I know he's one of the villains, but I love that security camera robot. I like his design, being a four-wheeled security camera pivoted on a mechanical arm

[reichs]

Animator: Hey, can I copy your homework?

Pixar: sure but just change it up so they won’t know

[ItsDaJax]

Everybody is saying WALL-E, while I'm thinking about the junkyard scene in The Brave Little Toaster.

[syrathdouglas]

Anyone else want a part 2 where he gets to the city and soon the humans storm the island to set all the little robots free and pull up and fix the bulldozer?

[thebedrockminer]

If this doesn’t win any awards then I’ll be shocked

[edduj]

Je vais me répéter : ce que vous faites est géant! Non seulement c’est très humain, une sérieuse dose de philosophie de la vie, et puis les animations sont TOP TOP TOP! Encore une fois, chapeau pour la créativité et tout le reste!!!! BRAVO!!!

[Sheikh_tumail]

It’s sad that the little robot lost is friend
