DreamMachine Episode 51: The Wild Robot

In this episode of DreamMachine, Arun and Patricia discuss about
the 2024 DreamWorks animated film The Wild Robot based on the
2016 book of the same name by Peter Brown. A robot named ROZZUM
Unit 7134 or Roz for short is sent to an uninhabited island to
help others in need. But she is surrounded by animals who see her
as a threatening monster. One evening, Roz accidentally falls on
a nest killing a goose and her eggs. She finds that there is one
egg left and the gosling hatches thinking that Roz is his mother.
Roz names the gosling Brightbill and together alongside a fox
named Fink, they raise him as their own. While Roz is raising
Brightbill, she wishes to return back to her homebase so she can
fulfill her real purpose. As time passes, she realizes that she
has everything she needs in the island: a home and a family. When
the film premiered in theaters, it made $323 million dollars out
of a $78 million dollar budget receiving critical acclaim from
critics and viewers calling it a "masterpiece" and an instant
classic with its story, characters, animation, and themes,
especially with The Wild Robot being DreamWorks' final in-house
film. What did Arun and Patricia think of the film?
