Take responsibility for your own life or blame those who became successful . Believe in conspiracy fables life
I think what really hurts 🤕 certain communities is obsession with history. The belief that you can't know yourself unless you know where you came from
I believe the earlier quote was from C.S. Lewis :)
I felt kinda bad for Alan watching them geek out together and hes just vibing lmao xD i wonder why you had issues with the movie i wanted to hear more about that. Loved when jono was raising his hand and said preach lmao. Amazing video this one. This movie was surprisingly rly well done i never watched it till recently. Wasn't expecting such serious and healthy growth topics. Especially since all i remembered from the trailers as a kid was the dinosaur talking bit abuot his big head and small arms.
The link is not working.
The gag of the main villain explaining how everyone hated him while everyone around him is trying to be nice and accepting is way more relatable to my high school years than was comfortable.
Same, same.
I still remember when i completely shut down and perceived the whole world against me.
If someone even slightly bumps against me in the halls, i would turn my head and glare like they just insulted me or smth.
It is very teenage angst and relatable. Lol
What was worse is if there was one or two things that people didnt like about you, it just compounded those feelings
I came here to say this! 😂🥹
I dig that people are becoming more self-aware in this regard. When I was growing up, the internet very much leaned into the whole "Ugh, people are so annoying, leave me alone, nobody understands me, I'm not like other girls, NLOGs are so cringe, I don't even know my friends' birthdays, blah blah blah, why don't I have any real human connection?". Growing up is realizing that most of those "annoying overly friendly people" the media and internet used to look down upon are actually just socially awkward misfits like yourself trying to be nice.
Sitting in the middle there, Bryson looks like Alan's and Jonathan's wholesome love child
Fr😭
At first I thought he was a child of one of them ahaha
@@yep.polina8350 i thought the same
His face looks so much like jon
@@Imbatmn57yeah and his hair is giving Alan
I can't even blame Lewis for the peanut butter thing. She said: "We don't usually eat peanutbutter" when what she MEANT was "my husband will INSTANTLY begin to swell on every inch of his body if he even TOUCHES the stuff." Don't downplay your allergies, especially if they're THAT life threatening.
Yup, but I’ve actually seen this strange phenomenon of parents downplaying serious issues like that in real life, too. I have a nephew who is allergic to shellfish, and when he went to preschool, we told the teacher this fact as a heads up. We told her while there were little kids running around, one of them overheard this conversation and asked very innocently, “why can’t he eat that?” And instead of just saying my nephew had an allergy, the teacher for some reason just said, “oh, he just really, really doesn’t like it.” And that made me go ???? Just… why phrase it that way? I don’t know what it is with some adults that they just can’t have straightforward discussions with kids, but it’s so annoying.
@@gothicMCRgirlThat’s so weird! I get that you don’t want give a full biology lesson to a preschooler, but why not simply say “Shellfish make him very sick.”?
@@corvidaegudmund1186 Right! Just explain what an allergy is! It’s not that hard, and you’re a TEACHER! That’s literally your job 😭 I get that little kids can sometimes get annoying with the questions, but why is lying the first thing you resort to? Also, it’s super dangerous to imply that a child just doesn’t like something when in reality they’re very allergic to it. If he ends up phrasing it like that to an adult that doesn’t know any better and gives him shellfish anyway, he can get hospitalized.
@@gothicMCRgirl I absolutely hate that adults do this still. Being open and upfront to kids, who are (As I always tell people for a good reason) the dumbest smart creatures when it comes to the human race, lets them make more decisions wisely, even when they're young. You just have to explain it in a way that their developing minds can understand (For example, all the fairy tales children used to grow up on. They were stories with morals in them on how to behave and act. Another would be, yes, religion). Playing dodgem around a tough topic messes a lot up.
@@gothicMCRgirlThe weird thing is that it’s not like kids can’t understand! Even though I didn’t have allergies as a kid, I understood what an allergy was especially once allergic reactions were shown (comedically of course) in cartoons. If you tell the average kid “peanuts make it harder for me to breathe” usually they’ll feel a bit of horror on your behalf and make sure to avoid giving you peanuts unless they lack empathy.
"Oh, we don't eat peanuts." is NOT the same as "He has a peanut allergy."
When lives may be on the line, CLARITY is even more important.
Yassss
Literally! And then the sternness and accusatory voice she has is wrong, he’s 12 and you (an adult!) didn’t give him the context for what could happen
1:35 The quote is from C.S. Lewis I think: "A children's story that can only be enjoyed by children is not a good children's story in the slightest."
*cough Disney’s Wish *Cough *COUGH
Yep, it's him
Yep, C.S. Lewis did say that! He was a real storyteller, wanted to write quality work even if he was writing for kids
This is Bluey in a nutshell
@@MrVivaloslegos rent free lmao
It’s a shame that this is one of Disney’s underrated films because it really captures Disney’s message: Even if you fail, hard work and determination can help you learn and achieve your dreams, and it is possible to find your family even when you’re not looking ❤️
Well that was Disney's thing,now it's "shut up and give us money."
@@supersasukemaniac nah idk, Soul was a recent enjoyable movie with a good message. they’re just super capitalistic in their acquisitions of other companies lmao.
after doing some googling, i can agree that Disney does pump out live action remakes of their hand drawn films that made people gravitate to Disney in the first place, which just supports my point of Disney being super capitalistic *insert depressive laugh*.
@@supersasukemaniac Yes, even the movie Wish released for their 100th anniversary was a disappointment. It’s sad
@@mast3rNate ... you haven't seen wish have you. You sweet summer child.
@@RandomDoodlesD should i see it? i remember seeing it being advertised here and there but i haven’t been keeping up with animated films as much as i want. i still haven’t even seen The Boy and The Heron either. 😭
As an autistic orphan, this movie meant a lot to me growing up. My grandparents were my guardians, but they were never happy to have to raise me.
This movie gave me so much hope that I'd find a family who would actually want me one day. I'm still looking for them, but... Someday.
Ill just paste my post under here as I found your reply after I wrote it. I can relate to your situation, know youre not alone:
"Thank you for this episode. Growing up I felt lonely becouse I was the only one relating to this movie as Lewis journey was much alike my journey. I still try to find my place in the world and the struggle for selfworth is real. In my early 20s I found me a Robinsons family. So to everyone else that can relate to Lewis: Dont loose hope. Yes, at some point I had to leave my Robinsons to live my own life, and I still struggle to find my place, but...
Like its says in the Steven Univerce movie:
"Someday, somewhere, somehow, you'll love again
You just need to find someone
Someone who treats you better
Someone who wants you around
Someday, somewhere, somehow
(You're) I'm gonna feel found"
I sincerely hope this isn't coming off wrong, but may I be part of that family?
I’ll be your family ❤️
i’m an autistic adoptee, but i still don’t know if i BELONG in my family. found family is the best and now that i’m an adult i’ve been actively finding ways to connect with people that i know will get me and even if they don’t will accept me for what i am (i’m also non binary so that’s kinda hard nowadays). surrounding yourself with other neurodivergent (queer in my case) people can almost never go wrong. i’m still looking for my family too, know that whatever happens you’ll always have a stranger in the internet :)
4:27 i blame the adults for not flat out saying they’re allergic as soon as Lewis mentioned peanut butter. Idk why they beat around the bush so much
Just a classic case of adults underestimating kids and seeing them as intellectually inferior. Lots of adults talk to kids like that because they assume kids won’t understand otherwise, and it’s super annoying.
I blame the woman in charge of the foster home. The fact the husband wanted sports lewis should have been out of the running
Same here
@@paulrasmussen8953 That’s absurd lol just because kids don’t share the same interests as their parents doesn’t mean it’s an automatically bad match. Tell me, did YOU share every single interest and hobby with your parents growing up? These meetings and interviews are more than just discussing what the parents have in common with the kid, it’s about gauging interest and emotional connection, if there is any.
@@paulrasmussen8953 they didn't seem too disappointed in Lewis not being into sports though. But I get what you are saying. Though who knows, the potential father could have liked Lewis' drive to succed and compete as an inventer, if he saw him post Character Development.
"Hey Goob, cool binder!"
"Goob, wanna come over to my house today?"
"They all hated me......."
CRACKS ME UP EVERY TIME. XD
ik its so funny 🤣, but that’s the reality for depressed and introverted kids. He just doesn’t take hints as easily as most kids his age.
It reminds me of Megamind or Doofenshmirtz a bit
@@KyeXGamer which makes it doubly hilarious and tragic, because these kids genuinely compliment and want to hang out with him. (irl, Goob would definitely have been made fun of just for having a pink binder)
Easily my favorite part of the entire movie
i mean, calling him GOOB probably didn't help... i could see how that would read as sarcasm if i was already predisposed to believe the worst about myself. i know it's part of his name but it's also a horrible nickname.
Y'know, I thought Lewis was in the wrong for not listening because he was caught up talking about his invention for a long while, but re-watching that scene... if you have a life-threatening allergy you should really just say it instead of beating around the bush. Like say "I'm allergic to peanuts", and in his wife's case, don't say "we don't usually eat that", and definitely don't stop your husband, who has the allergy, from speaking up to tell the kid with a peanut butter gun about the allergy, say "my husband is allergic to peanuts"! Geez.
Yeah, the husband was trying to remove himself from a dangerous situation & neither just honestly said “This family has a deadly peanut allergy.”
Yeah
@@ztslovebirdyeah
Yeah, i mean... totally understand being nervous... but they are the adults, he is just a kid trying his best to show who he is.
I don't put a heavy blame, because in the end that is a very delicate situation that should be dealt with care, but they could just have spoken up about the husband allergy.
Yeah
"Did we just become best friends?"
That was such a sweet start.
I agree
As an adopted person, I can offer the adoptee perspective. All too often, adopted individuals grapple with feelings of worthlessness and struggle to find belongingness, a way to fit in the world. Lewis doesn't have anyone to tether him. He doesn't have a central unit, a place and people to call home. He never had the parental assurance to develop inherent self-worth. He's wandering through life trying to find innate, human connection. He believes that if he finds someone who loves and wants him, then he has self-worth, then his existence is validated. That's why he fixates on remembering and meeting his mother. However, it comes at the cost of him not acknowledging his own brilliance and the salient, unique, and wonderful pieces that comprise his being. That's why Lewis pulling away at the chance to meet his mother is so powerful. He's acknowledging his own self-worth and his ability to shape his future. He is no longer binded to the past. He's enough as he is. The scene exemplifies radical acceptance, self-love, and compassion. As an adopted person, I bawled through that scene. I always wanted to meet my birth mother for similar reasons to Lewis. It's the grief of letting go of something so naturally human, to want to know who you are, where you come from, to know the person who gave you life. But rather than being tied to the past, he chooses to move forward. He cannot change the past but he can enlarge his future. Meet the Robinsons resonated with me and so many other adopted individuals. It invited me to validate my own life experience, connect with my innate self-worth, and keep moving forward.
John and Bryson - Did we just become best friends!?
Alan - Am I a joke to you ?
Bryson looks like he's Jono's son.
Alan was almost a third wheel this video haha
I was expecting a close-up on Alan’s face looking at the camera with his lip poked out.
@@Eleerm that’s what I thought too
Aha as funny as that would be I think they're both excited by the idea of an expanding social/support circle
One of the best set up jokes in this movie is Wilber saying that Cornelius looks like Tom Sellick. Cornelius shows up later... and he's voiced by Tom Sellick.
What's even better is that the dubs changed it to whoever did Cornelius voice there (or at least in some). In Latin Spanish it's José Luis Rodríguez "El Puma", a literal singer, what makes it even funnier. lmao
Edit: He is an actor too! I said singer because I thought that was the main thing he did which turned out to not be true, he participated in many telenovelas. lol
Apparently the "Tom Sellick" was an ad lib, too. He was supposed to just pass on the question, but instead he threw the name in there. Then they went and hired Tom. 😂
@@Vanto95 But Tom Selleck is a singer too.
@@fixedfunshow Oh, I didn't know that! Just checked, and he started a couple of years ago it seems?
“A children's story that can only be enjoyed by children isn't a good children's story in the slightest.” C.S. Lewis (author of the Narnia books)
Also the most important Christian thinker of the 20th century.
People should read his works on apologetics. You don’t have to be a Christian but it will challenge you to be a good atheist, and his works won’t judge you. In the view of Lewis, if atheists didn’t have a purpose, then they would not exist, and in fact, a good atheist can be better than a bad Christian.
This movie always gets to me. My Wife and I adopted a child who had been abandoned as an infant and our Daughter was 8 or so when we first watched this movie with her. She received a Master's Degree on Saturday.
Congrats from a random stranger on the internet
@@jordanloux3883 Thanks. One more Masters to go, then she will be an official grown-up. BTW, she would make fun of me when I got teary-eyed during Meet the Robinsons.
One of my favorite details about the villain in this movie is seeing him say "everybody hated me" right after seeing several people trying to be friendly to him. I think it's a good reminder that sometimes we project how we feel about ourselves onto other people. Yes, some people out there will not like you (sometimes for absolutely no reason) but you don't have to decide that for them.
Also so true. Possibly imposter syndrome going on. I remember a time when I was so convinced I was just letting my friends down all the time, when the reality was they never saw it that way and still liked me just the same, cringe and all.
I mean, if there was a scene of one of them trying to apologize to him, but Mike/Goob was so blinded by anguish that he refused to let it go, then I'd buy it more. Also, consider that one of those kids speaking to him was the same team member who beat him up after the game.
So yeah, not saying that Mike was in the right, but even I'd be saying to that dude, "Cut the crap, f**k off.".
I think a big part of that gag (beyond being funny, at least) is that those could all easily sound sarcastic or mocking if the recipient is already in a bad headspace. So even genuine attempts at friendship feel like they're making fun of you for not having friends, or for enjoying a hobby. It doesn't take much to turn what would be a positive interaction into a negative one when you're already upset, and it's much harder to get back to the positive side. Assuming the kids were genuine, they were only trying to help but didn't have the tools necessary to make that jump back from Goob's negative thoughts.
Well the hosts shouldn't lie to people and say your people are out there. There are some people who don't belong anywhere, and not in a "menace to society" sort of way. Some are just unwanted, myself included.
You want a children's story to grow with you. You gain the basic messages at your younger age but when you look back after years of experience, it can speak even deeper to you.
oh, a hundred percent. i doubt alot of childrens movies are like that.
This. This is why I watch and rewatch the same movies years later. I love digging out the deeper messages and themes from movies, and watching how they affect the world around me as I apply them.
@@korwynze6288 Any particular ones that stand out to you? I think "The Secret of Nyhm" really became richer with age, for example.
Me crying for the first time as an almost 20 year old reading The Chronicles of Narnia even though I’ve read through the series multiple times in my childhood:
"Fitting in is about assessing a situation and becoming who you need to be to be accepted. Belonging, on the other hand, doesn’t require us to change who we are; it requires us to be who we are."
Brené Brown, The Gifts of Imperfection
I think it was kinda glossed over, but that gag of Goob walking by literally everyone at school who was trying to be nice and loving towards him with a frown on his face as he ignores them didn't get enough attention. When he lost the game for his team by missing the catch, and his team beat him up, it was like he began to go into a very longterm downwards spiral of self-punishment without giving himself any grace, the only kind of grace he effectively allowed himself was when he did enough mental gymnastics to turn someone else into the scapegoat and stopped taking responsibility for the consequences of his own actions, and also stopped taking responsibility for his own mental wellbeing.
It was bad that he missed the catch, and he already knew it was a failure, but he punishes himself for years of his life through isolation and continuing to internalize that he doesn't deserve happiness or love (in how he drives off every adoption interview couple with the exact same story where he basically scares them off with his demeanor as he recounts the story again and again and again) over a shortcoming that if anything was brought on by sheer circumstance.
If Goob forgave himself for this shortcoming or even just sought out a loved one to just cry to, I'm pretty sure the rest of the movie's story wouldn't exist.
I cry every time I hear the song “Little Wonders” by Rob Thomas play in that scene towards the end of the movie.
Same. I had a friend poke fun at me for that 😂
Same it's such a good song❤
Oh me too.. 😭The ending song it’s a great pay off of so much build up
I was wondering if I should post the same thing, but it seems I have found my people
Same, like waterfalls every time.
I'm glad that the movie handles the found family reveal trope with maturity. While we sympathize with Lewis finding belonging with his biological Mom, the movie subtly demonstrates how the love he needs is right there. As a result, it treats its younger audience with respect rather than spelling it out.
Have you seen the movie with the commentary? The director was adopted and always wanted to find his birth mother but realized as he got older that the family who took him in was his true family. His experience is beautiful.
Also he voiced Goob. 😂😂
@@CheyenneRose No I haven't. Though I heard about his background as someone who is adopted from outside sources. Thanks for the recommendation.
19:12 goob having such a small opinion of himself and holding himself back while also being stuck, systemically, in a place that he can’t control and without an outside positive influence was one of the most impactful parts of the film :( of course he can’t just feel better! It’s so hard to get out of that spot.
"You still love me, right?" I never thought id relate to a dog so much lol
I'd like to share the full context of the "Keep moving forward" quote and recurring motif in the movie.
"Around here, we dont look backwards for very long. We keep moving forward, opening up new doors and doing new things, because we're curious, and curiosity keeps leading us down new paths."
Fun fact, the creators of the film didn't actually discover that quote until just before the movie was finished. "Keep moving forward" was always in the script as a motif, but one of the directors was getting a haircut and happened upon the quote completely by accident while reading a magazine with an old interview with Walt Disney.
And just to add a bit more to it Disney wasn't doing all that great at the time.
2d animation was in the middle of dying and their foray into CGI, Chicken Little, wasn't well received at all. They were going through some financial issues.
This was the movie that kind of got them back on track.
This is one of my favourite mottos from the movie that I adopted during my schooling years especially when there are setbacks.
When I was in high school I had an art project where I had to do a quote in calligraphy and I chose that one. Took me ages to do but I got it done.
Curiousity is key. If you can se the wonders, if you can lift your gaze from your shoes and find something exiting around you, the travel of life will be easier to walk.
In my family we celebrate mistakes. When my kids went to school, I had to warn them that if they said "Yay! You made a mistake!" Some kids might think they were making fun of them.
That's actually super wholesome. I love that
I would say the Frizzle Creed works better here:
Take chances, make mistakes, & get messy!
I went to jr. High with Bryson. My ninth grade year, his seventh grade year, I played Gaston and he played Chip in our schools rendition of beauty and the beast. Seeing him almost ten years later as an adult CZcamsr with millions of subscribers kinda feels like uncanny valley haha. Glad things have worked out so well for him.
I always connected with this movie when I was younger. I was intensely bullied due to my Autism, and didn't have any friends at all because the bullies made people fear being my friend. So, I felt rejected by the world, just like Lewis. I kept having to repeat the mantra keep moving forward, because otherwise I would fall.
"Nice is different than good" is one of the most perfect lyrics of all time.
If your asking some do stuff for you without anything in return. What does that say about your goodness
Yeah, I've seen that before on their Megamind video. What movie is that song from?
@@CalebForslundInto the Woods
@@CalebForslund it's from the musical play into the woods :)
If you plan on watching the musical, I would easily choose the Bernadette Peters' Broadway recording over the Blunt-Kendrick-Corden-Streep theatrical musical film from 2014. I do hold them both close to my heart, but one has fewer distractions (I personally don't think casting a dynamite crew of A- and B-list Hollywood celebrities will always pay off, especially when Sweeney Todd, James Fucking Corden and "the girl from that Cups movie" show up (not my words).)
even though you didn't react to it, the scene where goob sees his older self always hit home to me. like, just seeing my younger self in her most difficult moment and getting to comfort her or give her advice makes my heart feel a certain way. yeah, bowler hat guy didn't give goob the best advice, but still 😂
Thats a therapy strategy I've heard of, to write a note to your younger self. I cried.
Request: The dynamics of Friendship - Road to Eldorado
I’d love that
I second this!! I LOVE THIS MOVIE
"friendship" XD
That first quote that Bryson mentioned is from C.S. Lewis, “A children's story that can only be enjoyed by children is not a good children's story in the slightest.” which I entirely agree with. Thank y'all so much for doing this episode on Meet the Robinsons, the movie gave me the courage to go back into the STEM field with my undergraduate degree.
I’m usually a silent viewer but this is one of my all time favourite films, I’m so happy! Thank you so much for your content!
You're very welcome. Thanks for watching!
Meet the Robinsons really spoke to a lot of kids my age. I think every generation has to have their "find your team" film where we're shown there's folk who will understand and support us no matter what. Sure, this isn't the best example, but it's one with a lot of heart and inventive creativity. It holds a special place in my heart.
It spoke to me as I was an abused foster kid who at Lewis's age was adopted by an abuser who wouldn't even let me read science books so I could be smart like Lewis.
@@nuclearcatbaby1131 I am so terribly sorry oh my god I would give you a never ending hug🫂
@@nuclearcatbaby1131 I hope you're doing better today; and that you're getting some kind of help to work past what an ordeal that had to be.
@@Perid0tStar I'm in a real college now (only a decade and a half later than normal!) But I haven't found any therapists to be useful, only condescending. Only ADHD medication is any help at all
This was one of my favorites. I grew up in an abusive family, and I would daydream that a good family would adopt me one day.
I ended up running away from home, which I know I shouldn't have, but a lovely family took me in and gave me the opportunity for a future. They are amazing.
I know that I got lucky because I could have fallen into another bad situation.
The family made sure I went to therapy and took it seriously.
I've never heard of Bryson before, but he's been a WONDERFUL guest and I'd be more than happy to welcome him back again someday!
Also, Meet the Robinson's has been by far one of my favourite "modern" animated films. Thank you very much for covering it!
Awww. My cat was given back to the shelter before he came to us. He is the MOST CUDDLY cat of life. People do not meet cats this cuddly. He cuddles like his life depends on it. The first time I had to take him to the vet he peed his carrier (so rare for cats) because he thought we were taking him back:( When he gets in trouble at home I swear he acts like a DOG when they get in trouble! He gets all sad and his tail droops and he huddles in a corner. I’ve never had a cat act like that and it just goes to show how DEEP rejection goes-even for animals! Even though we should know it doesn’t have to mean anything about us, we can also give ourselves grace for having big reactions to rejection. That stuff HURTS! My poor cat can’t even be aloof like a cat because he can’t get over it. Fortunately as humans we can work to give ourself better messages so we can try again.
Oh, my heart 💔.
I am giving both the Thera-pup and your sweet floof cuddles and pets through the internet, and affirmations that they are good and wanted and loved. 💌💌💌
My cat was born a stray, found in a parking lot by an old friend of mine. He lived with them for a couple years, but when they moved they couldn't keep all of their cats. He and I had kinda bonded a little when I visited (even though he is terrified of strangers and he never showed up when I was awake, I'd wake up after sleeping over to find him sleeping on me), so I took him in. He also acts like a dog! Ducks if he thinks he's in trouble, comes when called, biggest lap cat, I've even taught him tricks fairly easily because he's so eager to please. He's still terrified of strangers, but over time he's opened up to repeated visitors and will come running for love and affection. Sad to know it happens because of rejection and fear, but interesting to know there are other cats out there acting like dogs, haha
@@danitini14 Awww. Sweetie. I love the cuddles AND it breaks my heart a little. He has calmed down just a touch since we got him and sometimes he’s content to sleep or hang out and not always come running for aggressive cheek rubbies. He’s not afraid of anyone though and turns on the charm for all people. He’s amazing and heartbreaking and a little too much at 4AM…
I send your cat many many cuddles. It's wonderful that he has you and vice versa. ❤
Uncle Art is actually Adam West of Batman and Robin. It's why he's so good at the superhero voice.

Came to say the same thing!
The reason I love this movie is because it’s so optimistic. As an artist, seeing Lewis get his empty lab to fill with inventions makes me so emotional because we often want to know if all our efforts are really going to pay off one day. This movie convinces me to keep moving forward with whatever that project is.

My cousin was place into adoption. My aunt was in a position that she wasn't safe. Criminals and stuff like that. Giving her child up was one of the hardest things she had to do.
My cousin was lucky that he found a family fast enough he was still a toddler.
We found him back, years 30 years later. There was so much mixed feelings but in the end he was always part of our family and he is Glad to have two amazing families.

I've suggested conflict resolution should be taught in schools, but maybe that can go under communication.
We use those kind of skills in everyday scenarios. But who the heck uses physics all the time? I feel like mandated classes should be things used on a regular basis, not things that may be specific to particular fields of work. I took zoology and someone please tell me why or when I am gonna need to know the correct order of animals in my day to day life. I can understand teaching young children spelling, reading and basic math. But there is no reason you should force me to study history because I won’t use that information unless I go into that field which you have no guarantee I will. Let the students pick there classes when they go to high school. Rant over. Have a good day folks
@@LunarAnimeAngel You need all that basic knowledge so you don't start to think stupid stuff like animals are all created in a lab or dinosaurs never existed, if you don't know the basic of not just what they are but how things happened. The less you know, the less you understand, and generally what people don't understand they fear. If you don't know history then you'll be surprised when world news happens that has happened a million times before in history, so it gives perspective.
Attitudes change depending on what knowledge you have and how you view it. So yes, all of that stuff matters in your day to day life because your view of the world and what's in it changes how you approach each second of every day.
During a period of being the sole caretaker of a mom with Alzheimer's and a dad with dementia, my mantra was "Keep Moving Forward" from this movie...
Mr Seawright saying "I have a videogame idea" reminded me of the forgotten medium of storytelling of what videogames can deliver and is yet to be explored on this channel.
We know the Telltale games, more complex ones like Last of Us or Life is Strange which are classics but also others that challenge our perception of what stories and experiences videogames can deliver like Spiritfarer (This game can break you) or Disco Elysium
Recommendations (if possible)
- Hero psychology of Gwen Stacy: Across the Spiderverse
- Character psychology of Marie: Unbelievable (8 episode miniseries)
- Psychology of an antihero of Joel: HBO The Last of Us (possible Troy Baker guest star)
- The Nanny McPhee movies
- Nimona
- Dreamworks Abominable
- Over the Moon
- Psychology of a Villain: Snow from Hunger Games (both prequel & original trilogy)
- As They Made Us (w/ Mayim Bialik guest star)
- Psychology of a Hero; Tulip from Infinity Train
- Logan from Logan
- The Hate U Give
The Gwen Stacy episode would be a very very good one. 😊
Yes!! Nimona would be perfect. Especially the ending.
The Gwen Stacy and Nimona episodes would be so cool! and Snow is such a fun villian
Logan and Joel would be awesome I’m my opinion
I'm down for all of this except for Abominable. That movie was so paint-by-numbers that it's not worth talking about.
Nimona though, that's my number one for these guys to talk about.
I loved this film as a kid I rarely see it being talked about. Thankyou for doing an episode covering it
I love this moive, it has so many hidden gems and overall the messaging. The endinig quote from Walt Disney: ''Around here, however, we don't look backwards for very long. We keep moving forward, opening up new doors and doing new things… and curiosity keeps leading us down new paths” which speaks volume with Lewis being hung up on all the rejection and his mistakes. He didnt take them as a learning process or a way to grow. I too sometimes get hung up on the past, when I in reality should either learn from it or move forward.
"The past can hurt, but the way I see it, you can either run from it or learn from it"
- Rafiki, The Lion King
It hurts so much that now that Disney is a company, they prioritise safety and sticking to the same thing
The reveal at the end that 'Keep Moving Forward' was part of Walt's philosophy made me cry at least as much as some other parts of the movie.
Growing up, the concepts in this movie hit so hard. Every time I watched the ending and "Little Wonders" played, even as a kid I felt so emotional, inspired and hopeful! Now I just cry like a baby every time, THANK YOU FOR THIS VIDEO!
That comment about shame vs. guilt could not have come at a better time
I am an adopted child and have friends who were in the foster care system and I just wanted to add my own commentary to this sooo
4:16 I feel like this is a huge struggle for foster kids, especially teens, older children and children with disabilities. Finding a family can often be harder as a kid gets older due to them being 'too old' to form a bond. I also feel like children with physical and cognitive disabilities and kids with mental health problems are also less likely to get adopted. It's a really sad fact of life for foster kids.
8:43 I love this woman so much. She reminds me of so many people I've had in my life who have been exactly what I needed. My mom is great but she's also not big on affection or affirming me. One of my teachers, my friend's mom, and my former caretaker come to mind when I think of this woman. I love seeing adoption agents who genuinely want to help and she's doing all the things she should. She speaks in a calm tone, she doesn't immediately bring up the interview right out the gate and when she does, she doesn't berate Louis. She affirms him. Over all, 10/10 amazing adoption agent.
Jon: "Is that a Shatner?"
Me: "It's Adam West."
Alan: "No it's Patrick Warburton"
Me: "IT'S ADAM WEST-" 💀😭😆
No way! Bryson with Cinema Therapy?! I would never have guessed but i love it! :D
We've already got another collab in the works!
@@CinemaTherapyShow Awesome! I watch both of your channels and that would be amazing to see :)
Any hint about what the film is?
Thank you so much for covering this movie! Bryson, that quote hit hard. My whole life, even now, I have been struggling with fitting in versus belonging. I spent my life not understanding why I didn't 'belong' and why every interaction felt uncomfortable. So I started masking and pretending to help me fit in.............Now I am working on setting boundaries and exploring things that make me happy. I am finding that on this journey I am slowly attracting healthier friendships (I have one so far! We have been friends for 6 years!) who appreciate me for me and I don't need to pretend when I am with them☺. I hope this movie helped others in the same way 🥰
Thanks for sharing your story. And thanks for watching! :)
Since Lewis/Cornelius changed Goob's future by waking him up, My headcanon is that those two still kept in touch after they were adopted. Because Lewis and Goob were more than just roommates they were kinda like brothers.
“Hey, goob.”
“Wanna hang out at my house, Goob?”
“They all HATED me!”
😂
Some people are actually like this.
Love love love this movie! Thanks for doing an episode!!!
You're so welcome! :)
the quote bryson mentioned at the start is from C.S Lewis I think
You’re correct
Gotta love C.S. Lewis
that's hilarious how the author and main character's name lines up
Damn I just love Bryson's energy. What a wholesome, sensitive, self-aware, funny and creative young man.
By the way, if anyone needs to know this, the "fitting in is the opposite of belonging" is Brene Brown's phrase. Also guilt vs shame explanation is hers. She is a "shame" researcher and a fantastic teacher. Learned a lot from her. And it seems Bryson also is familiar with her work.
Each time I've went to Disney I've yet to see any merch for Meet the Robinsons. It's easily one of my favorite underrated Disney movies and I personally love the messaging of it and the quote at the end that ties it all together.
This movie is SO underrated ir hurts
Lewis' story is so inspiring, him learning to have self confidence and then finding a place where he could be himself so that in the future his family would also have a place where they could be themselves (his home) ❤️
I love that when Wilbur is talking about how much Lewis knows about the family Lewis Asks what Wilbur's dad looks like. He says Tom Selleck. Who Voices Cornelius Robinson?
Tom Selleck. That's some Good 4th Wall breaking.

RIP Adam West. OG Batman and iconic voice actor.
RIP
This movie is so underrated. It has such a powerful message and it's just really fun at the same time.
No way! Bryson with Cinema Therapy?! I would never have guessed but i love it! :D.
The sad look on Alan's face when Jonathan says to Bryson, "Did we just become best friends?" Especially as Bryson is literally the younger version of Alan. And Alan covers it by saying, "I'm bored."
Alan says "I'm fourth."
I caught that too
For most of my life I've dealt with the constant thought of "I don't belong here" and "I'm no good". I kept getting proven right, and then 2 years ago after a friend I've known for 10 years decided to end things, it broke me. I ended up having a depression episode for 2 years now, it's getting a lot better though. So I really appreciate this video more than you know, thank you.
"Did we just become bestfriends?" "YES!"
"YES! I have four now!"
Alan "I'm number four"
😂😂
Bryson looks like Jonathan's and Alan's son!! I couldn't get it out of my head as I was watching
It's so wholesome how Jono was like a proud dad the whole time 😭 big dreamers energy with those two!
I remember seeing this movie in theaters with my best friend. At the time I saw it, I had just dropped a class in community college because I wasn’t doing so well and it would have hurt my GPA to continue. It was my first time having to drop a class and I felt so inadequate and like a failure. The scene where the Robinsons are all applauding Lewis’s failure really hit me in the feels. It’s important to show children it’s okay to fail and not achieve your desired result. Failure should be seen as a learning opportunity and from keep moving forward.
Literally almost fell out of my chair when I saw this. Yes, this going be so much fun.
Glad you didn't actually fall! 😅 enjoy the episode!
This is one of my favorite underrated Disney film. Absolutely wonderful!
I'm going in to train for the Fire Department later today and I'm having A LOT of doubts atm so thanks for reminding me of this childhood gem
Good luck you are going to do great! And even if it doesn’t go the way you wanted you can always try again :)
@@britt5650 You have no idea how much this has impacted me, thank you
21:11 Right here, Wilbur knocks off Lewis’s hat, revealing that they’re no longer dealing with the average saiyan warrior. Lewis has become the Super Saiyan of legend!
Huh, I actually thought "Did they ever do Meet the Robinsons? Probably, Google it later." Apparently not but now yes.
Now yes!
Therapist reacts to Ninjago. Who’s with me?
YEAH!!!
Yes
That no movie
@@prowolf633 Not the movie! There is no Lego Ninjago Movie in Ba Sing Se! But the series is cool. Wonder what they would focus on.
Just Zane though.
I have PTSD, bipolar, borderline personality disorder with psychosis. Watching you guys has helped me to take the first real steps in a long time towards healing. I hope you guys never stop.
Meet the Robinsons filled me with so much hope at a horrible time in my life. I was in an abusive relationship feeling like no one would ever understand me or like me and that no one would ever love me. Later finding my husband and joining/creating a family where everyone is different and accepts each other and loves each other and it feels so amazing. This movie is still such a comfort to me and I adore it to pieces!!
I spent my childhood watching this movie and hoping a family would take me in like the Robinsons did.
If I had known you, I would totally have adopted you.
I was already adopted by an abusive family when this movie came out.
As an adoptee, I absolutely loved Meet the Robinsons growing up
I don't pick favorites in anything, but this is my favorite movie, hands down. And I was an adult when it came out. As someone who didn't really find my tribe until my mid 30's, I love Jonno's statement that if you haven't found your people - you will. Hang in there, everyone!
Dude,id be absolutely enamored by lewis. I had no idea why the ppl in the beginning didnt like him when i first watched the movie. Like thats so cool. This child geeking out and wanting to make the world a better place.
That’s crazy, I watched this movie last night and then wake up to this video
Underrated movie I didn’t watch it until I was like 17 and loved it
I think about this movie on a daily basis. And no, I'm not exaggerating. My fiancé is the Frankie to my Lewis/Cornelius, he's creative and always encouraging my own artistic journey, and his family really made me feel like I belonged during the early 2020s. I'm always in such awe that I've been so fortunate to find that love and acceptance. ❤
I hope you mean Franie. Frankie is the frog.
The scene where Wilbur took Louis back in time to see his mother but then decided not to was so beautiful to me. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve wished I could go back in time undo all the dumb things I’ve done in my life but Louis decided to accept who he is and move on was really impactful for me. Yeah I wish I could’ve done things differently but the past is the past and you have to accept it and move on or else you’ll become stuck
I saw this movie a few times as a kid. The part that also traumatized me was the allergy scene when he has to have the emergency epiPen. For years I thought that was from Cloudy with a chance of Meatballs for some reason. Now I remember. Thanks for bringing that memory back up 😆
It’s probably because cloudy has a scene just like it in the movie 😂
@@TheFantasylover96 yeah I think there’s a scene similar to that one? I don’t remember tho lol
@@TheFantasylover96 must’ve blocked it from my sensitive mind 😂
@@DoofenSpyroDragon16 understandable lol
Thank you for doing Meet the Robinsons! It's a film that holds a very special place in my heart and something I keep coming back to from time to time. I find it amazing how many years later, your video still offers new perspectives and values to take away.
This is also the first youtube video I'm commenting on as I wanted you all to know how grateful I am for your channel, having coming across your videos during a dark period in my life and it was such a tremendous help. Combining a love for film and personal growth definitely made me an instant fan! Thanks for being awesome internet dads and a positive influence in the community!
I adore this movie, it was always one of my favorites of my kids' movies. The scene where Wilbur rips off Lewis' hat and the mom says 'HOW could you bring HIM here?!' just kills me. She has come to love Child!Lewis as much as she loves Adult!Lewis (who is, of course, now her husband) and she knows that "rejecting" Child!Lewis and sending him back to the past without being able to explain why is going to crush him, and GAH. My heart. 💔💔💔
This movie makes me cry EVERY time 😭😭😭
Same
I have just discovered this channel a week ago and have watch nothing but you guys. I appreciate your outtake on movies and was surprised that it is helping me in issues that have arisen in my life. Thank you guys for doing what you are doing! Keep going!
Welcome and thanks for watching! :)
Its finally completed: czcams.com/video/cJMUYjQ93DU/video.html
As a perfectionist and one that has struggled with failure throughout my life, this movie hits hard. When we learn to move forward, learn from mistakes, and accept failure is apart of life (no one is perfect) life becomes that much more meaningful. Always appreciate this page and it’s analyses 🙌
21:41 my favourite example of older version of character talking to younger version to instill some life-lessons is in X-Men Days of Future Past, when young Charles talks with old Charles, in a moment of utter despair and misery and self-loathing and learns 'to hope again', that scene always gets me emotional watching it, its a great moment
