The Island of Nevawuz (1978)
From undersung Australian animator Paul Williams comes his debut feature, the eccentric yet grim environmental fable The Island of Nevawuz, a 48-minute special that above all things eerily predicted the rise of Donald Trump. A medieval community residing on a plentiful island, unaware of the changing climate elsewhere in the world, finds themselves at the mercy of modern industrialist colonisation, under the tyrannical rule of the lying Count Cedric, cigar-chomping tycoon J.B. Trumphorn and his plans to reform this village into another city complex and flood the market with his - wait for it - Trump line of estates and automobiles. There is less subtlety to be found here than the Loraxes of the world, barely sugarcoating the lying, the wars, the destruction and the lack of consideration towards public income or interest that builds empires like Trumphorn's, yet coming to a hopeful conclusion that still reckons with the irreversible repercussions of urbanisation. It's a charming, if quietly terrifying piece of work, and for too long has remained in total obscurity until today.
Williams would later direct three feature films around 75 minutes in length, all of which are absurd in their own special ways, expand on his social awareness and quite prominently reuse animations of their main characters shovelling coal. His most ambitious and off-kilter film of them all, The Black Planet, subverts the Bond dynamic by putting together a so-called energy conservationist and a second-wave feminist - without romantically involving them, in quite a progressive move for the time - when an American senator and a military officer decide to use them as pawns in their plot to nuke Russia and win the race to claim a newly discovered planet that will grant them their solution to the oil crisis; a funny counterpoint to the anti-oil-mining rhetoric explored in Nevawuz. The Phantom Treehouse, a cross between Peter Pan and Alice in Wonderland with a bunyip added in, took a safer approach for younger audiences yet still didn't shy away from absurdism or satire, while The Steam-Driven Adventures of Riverboat Bill tackled a system devoted to systematic erasure of species and how there is no logic to such conservative laws whatsoever. His last known credits were as writer and animation director on TV shows The Silver Brumby and The New Adventures of Ocean Girl, and until last year the easiest ways to track down his films were festival showings in Australia. His short film That's Progress may remain a rarity, but at least now all four of these kooky curios can be easily accessed and cherished on CZcams.

Not them turning into superhero furries🤣🤣🤣
It was shown on Boxing Day 1990 on BBC1.
I enjoyed the story but the animation is poor.
Compared to what?
@@maxiesrandomjunk2967 Well, I wish it wasn't that sketchy looking
@@jamesmitchell8922 In a nutshell, you probably just don't like hand-drawn cel animation overall.
@@maxiesrandomjunk2967 Well, it's better than crappy 3D animation
@@jamesmitchell8922 Something tells me you wouldn't like Rocky & Bullwinkle, then. Or any Hanna-Barbera cartoons.
Not bad. Not bad at all. In fact, perfect.
This is the best thing I've ever seen
Interesting that Disney predicted "Hook".

My Talking Game Echo Movie 2 Wipe Out
wtf did they do to my girl arlene 😧
I think it would’ve been a great movie to see a CGI version of Anne Frank takes away trying an that looks close enough to Anne Frank she had a unique face cause of her overbite which gave her that fantastic smile unfortunately no actress will want to have that overbite due to a specific look required in Hollywood she had a special beauty
Everything this man did was pure light, bless him.
What did I just watch
I love this ending sm
The world needs more new and original films, sadly sequels make more money these days
My Peoples feels like something blacks could say so maybe the title would feel a little offending

In loving memories of not only Walter Cronkite and Robin Williams but also to Disney MGM studios itself.

I love it when Robin Williams’ Lost Boy character made an appearance in the short film Once Upon a Studio.
Garfield apparently being the only male able to resist Arlene's siren song is. An interesting choice to say the least /lh
