The Wild Robot and Unexpected Parenthood

Justin, Stacy, and Lexy discuss The Wild Robot and the trope of unexpected parenthood. We praise the movie's animation and emotional beats. We also discuss the time-honored trope of a childless loner finding themselves accidentally a parent. We find the movie still finds unexplored territory, surprising us with a more modern view of motherhood. The movie tackles the challenges of being a parent along with the rewards and the need for cooperation in a hostile world. Lexy recommends The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives and Justin recommends The Prince of Egypt and The Penguin. Website Store YouTube Facebook Group Page
