Regarding 13:16, animation director Benoit Feroumont draws himself as a bear on social media and you can spot this character on a framed photo on the William Bell's Happy sequence where Rascal and Robot are browsing stuff on the Flea Market. Berger is also referenced there! So there might be a couple of those scattered around the film in blink-and-miss moments.

Idk exactly when in the movie this happened, but there's a reference to the movie "Taxi Driver". You can see a guy dressed very similarly to the guy in the movie. He shows up near the bottom right of the screen.

On the DVD release of this, the fingers the punk characters flip to Dog & Robot and the finger Robot misguidedly flips back to them are covered by a black square.

Thank you for taking the time to go over some of the details in this movie! Robot Dreams is a such an amazing film and details like these are a lot of fun to learn about and really make me appreciate a film all the more with how much time and thought was put into making them. I'm not sure if this one counts but one detail that kind of got to me when re-watching the film was when Robot is being pulled by the Alligator junkyard owner, I believe there is a "Wrong Way Go Back" street sign or something along those lines seen in the background right before Robot gets thrown into the junk pile and destroyed as well as, in my opinion, the sign having a double meaning representing his relationship with Dog that Robot is going the wrong way further away from him and to go back to where he was at beach or else Dog won't be able to find Robot. You did such a great job on this video, it makes me want to re-watch Robot Dreams several times and see how many more possible details are out there as well!

It's been along time since a movie so instantly jumped to one being one of my all time favorites. I adore everything about this movie. The animation. The music. The world. The characters. This is a movie where I wish I could see more of this world. I could seriously watch an MCU amount of movies about these characters just living their lives. It's one of those movies where I want to rewatch it as soon as I finish seeing it. And, honestly, it's CRIMINAL how overlooked it is right now. Granted, a lot of that is due to the fact that seeing it in theaters is super difficult right now (at least in the States). I hope that this movie will be found by more and more people once it hits streaming. I'm glad to see a natural fandom beginning to form around the movie and I hope it continues.

I think there was a Sopranos reference too, when Rascal and Robot visits pizzeria named Vesuvio (I could be wrong it could be just named after the real pizzeria with same name). There was also Stanley Kubrick’s Shining reference too in the Halloween scene when twins visits the Dog. In the subway scene (near the guardian angels) there’s someone wearing a military jacket similar to that Travis Bickle wore (Taxi driver). Great catch btw I agree it was a great film; the best movie I’ve seen so far this year

I think that might just be a veteran reference. It very well could be a Rambo refrence too, but it was a very popular jacket it could be from anywhere so I'm not sure if it's exactly a reference to Taxi Driver. BUTT At around an hour and 17 minutes into the movie you can see in the bottom right a character wearing that jacket WITH sunglasses driving a Taxi.

#58 - Orange and blue are the colours of NY Mets. Since we see a reference to the soccer team NY Cosmos in Dog's apartment, it's likely he's also a Mets fan. Rascal's apartment has a Mets banner on the wall and he and Robot go to a Mets game together. It could be that Dog's passion for the Mets was passed on to Robot and then passed on to Rascal. :) Great video, spectacular film.

No, Rascal was already a Mets fan before meeting Robot. He has a bobblehead in his car before meeting Robot at the scrapyard.
