After few weeks I passed writing this blog (my Internet connection is distracted until now), on this opportunity I would like to discuss about Meet the Robinsons. I love this movie, although the story is not originally made by Disney. It is based on the novel by William Joyce
, A Day with Wilbur Robinson
.
The story is about a little child, who is trying to get his own family. He was abandoned when he was a baby, and then, because he is genius, he loves to make some experiments, although the result is not always satisfying. Sometimes, the couple who wants to adopt him must feel disappointed and angry because Lewiss (that’s the name :D) screws up with his experiments. Lewiss realizes that there will be no parents will accept and adopt him as he is now, except his own parents. In purpose to find his real parents, he tries to make a memory scanner to know who his real mother is. He makes the memory scanner day by day, not stopping although his roommate, Goob, cannot sleep because of him.
But the day he wants to demonstrate the memory scanner in science fair, Lewiss is visited by Wilbur, who tells him to beware of The Bowler Hat Guy. Without Lewiss’ notice, the Bowler Hat Guy (actually the hat) ruins the scanner. Lewiss feels disappointed and he doesn’t want to fix the scanner. But Wilbur keeps asking Lewiss to find out what is wrong with the scanner. Refusing to do so, Wilbur promises Lewiss to bring him to the day he was abandoned, but Lewiss has to finish the scanner.
Unexpectedly, Wilbur brings Lewiss to the future, where people travel through bubbles, planes, and have robots and monsters as their servants or pets. And then the time machine they are using is broken, so Wilbur asks Lewiss to fix it. When he is fixing the time machine, he accidentally meets Wilbur’s family. Lewiss easily falls in love with this family. In fact, when The Bowler Hat Guy with the hat named Doris try to kill him, Wilbur’s family protect and save Lewiss, they don’t care if they will hurt themselves. But after that, when Wilbur’s family notices that Lewiss is from the past, they ask Lewiss to go home to the past. Disappointed, Lewiss is convinced by the Bowler Hat Guy to give the memory scanner to him. Things become worse since then. What happens? Who is the Bowler Hat Guy? Find out by yourselves in Meet the Robinsons
by Walt Disney Production.
The one thing I love about the moral lesson of this movie is Keep Moving Forward. This is the slogan of the Robinsons. If something doesn’t go perfectly, don’t give up and keep moving forward! Wow! That’s a good slogan, isn’t it?
Beside the slogan, I also love the song titled Little Wonders by Rob Thomas. I will discuss this song tomorrow with hidden mickeys in this movie, if my Internet can work well… (I hope…)
Oh yeah, the other thing I love in this movie is Tiny, the tyrannosaurs which is brought by Bowler Hat Guy to kill Lewiss, but then it turns out that although Tiny has big head, he has little arms.. LOL…
ps. When I was a little kid, I love PEZ candy… and accidentally I find this… PEZ Meet The Robinsons, 0.58-Ounce Assorted Candy Dispensers (Pack of 24). I’m sure your kids will love it too..
