For this week’s main podcast review, I am joined by Sara Clements, Dan Bayer, Daniel Howat & Will Mavity to review and discuss the new animated film from Dreamworks Animation, “The Wild Robot” starring Lupita Nyong’o, Pedro Pascal, Kit Connor, Bill Nighy, Stephanie Hsu, Mark Hamill, Catherine O’Hara, Matt Berry & Ving Rhames. Directed by Academy Award-nominee Chris Sanders (“How To Train Your Dragon”), it’s the final film to be animated entirely in-house at DreamWorks and has received universally positive reviews since its world premiere at the 2024 Toronto International Film Festival. What did we think of it? Tune in as we discuss the animation, voice acting, humor, emotion, score, storytelling, its award chances, and more in our SPOILER-FILLED review. Thank you for listening, and enjoy!
