DreamWorks animator here! So glad you enjoyed the movie, and thanks for sharing the word about it :)

[SirBiscuitman]

Dreamworks as a company is the physical form of the graph “it’s so over” and “we’re so back” meme

[typhoonthunder]

What a stroke of luck it is that this movie just happens to be placed next to The Iron Giant on the Letterboxd Top 250 (Update: It's at 172 now)

The moment Roze looked at the crab to mimic its movement, all without saying a word, doing environmental storytelling basically perfectly, I knew this movie was going to be a banger.

2:26 “As a mother of seven kids” [Loud scream from off-screen] “…six kids, ”

[brockbracken]

So this is where the Megamind 2 budget went

[cryptonity]

The Wild Robot is gonna be another one-time classic by Dreamworks.

[DanGamingFan]

You know a movie's a masterpiece when Schaffrillas says so in the review title, instead of "Good or Nah". The scene where Brightbill leaves on migration and Roz catches his feather had my tearing up.

[draconicgremlin]

How to Train your Dragon was ALSO originally a book series and it’s VERY different from its movie counterpart. So it actually made sense that the person who made HTTYD took another beloved book series and absolutely cooked. Again.

[cloudshines]

I watched this movie with my mom and she was absolutely bawling at the montage scene where Roz sacrifices everything she possibly can to teach BrightBill how to fly. This movie absolutely screams parenting and it might be one of the best animated films about raising a kid, specifically related to mothers. After the movie was done, my mom said that there is no greater pain in life than being a mother… from carrying a child for 9 months… to giving birth… and eventually raising them.

Especially after she lost her own mother earlier this year… you never know how special something truly is until its gone. And while the father is equally as important… its no secret that a mother is the most important parental figure you could ever ask for. The Wild Robot absolutely nails that.

Even in animation Pedro Percal still have to babysit a orphan

[fernandolemus]

Dreamworks really just has peaks and valleys when it comes to their movie quality

[BR-jwpm]

Based on the previews, this film looks AMAZING. A friend saw it and said great things about it. Gonna see it this week!

[Hawkatana]

When Roz said "I am the Wild Robot", I knew this was true cinema.

I'm not making that up btw, she actually says that.

[bratzz]

Fun fact: I had my wisdom teeth removed, and the movie they were playing while I was underneath laughing gas was Moana, and it was the part were the crab guy was singing and I thought to myself, “hey, that’s the funni YouTube guy” and laughed really obnoxiously

[DanGamingFan]

Another DreamWorks masterpiece! The cast and characters are perfect, it's not afraid to show nature being as cruel as it is beautiful, and the emotional beats hit so hard.

[SkodenMOC]

Transformers One and The Wild Robot are the greatest robot movies in the 2020s 😅 and they came out only a week apart

[xxTC-xx]

I’m really glad we got two fantastic robot movies so close together with The Wild Robot and also Transformers One XD

[snowhunter]

The dialogue in this movie is kind of unique since it started out as (kind-of) a movie with less dialogue until the part when Roz breaks down the language barrier by the analyzing the animal language and translating them. It was a satisfying way to justify the presence of talking animals in an animated movie. Usually animated movies are dismissive of the talking animal tropes, treating them like jokes and props with less purpose or reason, but this one did something uniquely satisfying and engaging about it.

I can’t also forget the development of the relationships between the characters in this movie, which is somewhat what made The Bad Guys so appealing to some people.

[lucasroman]

This movie almost Made me cry many times, i'm also really impressed by how expressive the robot is, i usually forget that roz's face is just two eyes yet she shows so much emotion, the heart of this movie reminds me a Lot of the movies i enjoyed as a kid like wall-E or others
