As a fan of steampunk genre and Treasure Planet, this movie is a must watch for anyone who likes steampunk media like Fullmetal Alchemist, Steam boy and Treasure Planet. France really cooks some great 2D animated movies, I mean they have Gobelins, one of the greatest animation schools in the world.

Last exile. Minimum 7 episodes. But it's dieselpunk. The punk part means scarcity of resources despite the contrasting abundance like in Cyberpunk, so certain problems become trivial while everything more mundane is a huge issue. Now we have stuff like Magicpunk in Dorohedeoro, and I might argue Desert Punk and Trigun. Zombillenium and Nimona also fit.

Do you believe the movie had enough scenes?

Indie/foreign animations are really something else, there are tons of masterpieces out there and we need to support them

I watched this in my animation class back in college, and never has a film made me pay that much attention in an academic setting. This movie truly shows what makes animated movies, magic.

My French teacher played this for us on our last ever French lesson and it's stuck with me ever since. Incredible film and unforgettable experience

with the love you show for animated films, it would be an absolute treat to have you review "Les Triplettes De Belleville". It's a wonderfully hand drawn French film about a Grandmother trying to save her Grandson who gets kidnapped during the Tour de France.

It's just global. US culture specifically promotes racialized memes like "anime" so the only source of alternative media is from that one giant colony called Japan, and maybe Korea. Anywhere that work like animals to bloat generic GDP values, and make US economy richer by taking huge slices just for distribution. That's why you don't get Hong Kong or Taiwanese or Brazilian "anime", USA hates all those friends of Osamu Tezuka. You just get them to work on Velma. It's like China making you work on Miracle Star, or alterantively USA canceling John K. to promote Spongebob as the corporate alternative.

I saw a screening of this movie in a small community theater that featured movies from smaller artists and activist groups that did not l necessarily have the money to put their movie in big box theaters. I saw it with my mom and brother in 2015 when it came out and me and my brother have always wanted to watch it again but couldn’t remember the name. I’d honestly forgotten about it until now, such an obscure childhood memory coming back because of a bionic pig vid. Anyway boutta call big bro up so we can rewatch this movie as adults. Appreciate the memories!

You should REALLY watch Ernest & Celestine ! It's another french animation ! It's based on a watercolour book and borrows that aesthetic of that. And it's just so warm and cozy ! Perfect for winter !!

Never heard of this movie, but always love being exposed to the underrated gems!

I paused the video before the spoilers and watched the movie, and damn, this was the BEST thing i've watched in a while. It has been a few years now that i just started to lose interest on movies/animations/TV shows because they generally don't make me feel the same anymore, y'know, that little sparkle of excitment and curiosity u can get while watching something and really diving in to the story. This animated movie made me feel like that again, just, an awesome feeling to have :] (Also, thanks for the video Pig

i know what we're doing for date night tonight!! paused at 17:21 to not spoil it for myself. that animation and mystique looks absolutely incredible!

This is my favorite channel for learning about animated movies that are just so much more interesting and entertaining than anything produced by mainstream American studios in the last several years and I am all about it

Hey Pig! Just wanted to share a movie recommendation that is one of my favorites! I recently watched The Boy, The Mole, The Fox, And The Horse on Apple TV plus and fell in love. The beautiful animation combined with the story is something I cannot even begin to describe. It’s truly an underrated piece of art with an amazing message and great character. And though I’m a bit ashamed to admit it, it even made me tear up a bit while watching. I highly recommend 👍

I remember this movie quite vividly. We were searching for some junk movie to help us stay awake for one reason or another, and I guess the lizard people gave us that impression. However, upon watching the film, we found it gorgeous in both art and story, and I was sad that I couldn’t remember the title or find it again. But, I’m glad Bionic holds true to covering the things I can hardly remember and bring a new audience to them ^^

I just watch this movie and I SO enjoyed it! I definitely see the Atlantis comparison and I loved how outlandish but not completely unbelievable for the world it was. Pop's was also hands down the best character imo. I will definitely be watching it again at some point. Thank you for talking about movies like these, the deserve so much more attention.

Another banger, my dude! you should give Scavenger's Reign a watch, I'd like to hear your take on it. It's on the hbo or whatever.

Your videos got me through one of the darkest times of my life so thank you for your content I love it ❤

To be fair, Leo is actually a super cute movie with a really good message. Super super good

YESS, I remember watching the hell out of this as a kid

OMG I love this movie. I'm so glad you're covering it! We need more like this.

Jacques Tardi's illustrations helped influence my art, so I loved this movie. Thank you for making this video and introducing more people to April and the Extraordinary World and Tardi's work!

was looking for more content like this and how have i never heard of pig before???? 100% my new favorite channel love ur video essays hilarious and real

Can’t wait to check out this movie. Btw your hair looks amazing!

Bonjour, j'aime beaucoup moi aussi "Avril et le Monde truqué". J'ai regarder ta vidéo et je pense que si tu apprécie les esthétiques et histoires qui offre ce genre de nouvelle expérience. Alors j'ai une recommandation pour toi "Princesse Dragon" un film d'animation de Ankama. C'est une perle trop méconnue, sortie en 2021. :)

The visuals in this movie are so good

I swear to god, I’m pretty sure I saw this movie. The plot looks familiar, especially the lizard characters and the moon turning green, but I could never figure out what the movie was called. But now, I’m pretty sure I’ve finally found it… And yes, I can confirm, it’s a movie that’ll stick with you.

I'm so glad you've covered this movie because I nearly forgot about it

Omg , I saw this movie on Netflix!!! It was soo good! I’m so glad it’s getting the love it deserves!!! 🤩🤩🤩 Such a great video to cover it ❤

The art style is so pretty!!!!

I love this film and I’m so glad you are bringing light to it, not enough people know about it

Glad you made a post because KZread sure didn't notify me.

I’ve been waiting for someone like you to talk about this film since 2016.

YESSSS IVE BEEN WAITING SO LONG FOR THIS. YESSSSSSSS YESSSSS

I watched this movie once years ago when I was obsessed with steampunk, I have a hard time forgetting it

Pig i gotta say i absoloutely loveeee the new profile pic looks so good and fitting for ur channel ily

Literally one of my favorite movies ❤️

This looks sick and I'm glad you can give insight into ones I wouldn't normally hear of and it looks so interesting.

Great video :) My brain is so weird that, even though I've lived in Paris, I saw the clip at 11:39 and thought "is that the Jebediah Springfield statue?" XD

Idk if I just haven’t watched a video in a while or what, but your hair is looking absolutely immaculate 👌

I watched this on Netflix, it's always a big brain moment when I saw the move whenever I click on a video with The BEST Movie You NEVER Heard Of" in the title.

I swear on my mother’s grave, you have to give Leo a try the Adam Sandler and Bill Burr movie with the reptiles, it’s very very, very, very surprisingly good

I REMEMBER THIS!!! I loved this movie, & had no idea what it was. Thank you for letting me know what this gem is called!

it's nice that you included the movie name in the title, so many youtubers would just be like "The BEST Movie You NEVER Heard Of"

DUDE U AWOKE MT CHILDHOOD MEMORIES i watched this movie it was in my mom's usb and god i thought it was all a fever dream but no its real and its beautiful thank you for covering this the ending reallyl struck me

Omg finally someone covering this movie! I saw it when it came out and I was obsessed. However I couldn’t find anyone around me who knew that movie!

I Really enjoy your videos, and I want to say your hair looks specially flawless in this video.

The background music in the first couple of minutes is straight up 🔥

The clip of belle in the intro made me so happy, found that movie by accident while home alone and it for sure made me cry a couple times.

Thanks for reminding me of this masterpiece ❤

You need to talk about scavengers reign, it may just be THE best animated show ever made, and I'll certainly die on that hill

Just reloaded my page and Saw you uploaded. Appreciate your content.

I saw this movie with my family and we were all so excited to see someone finally talk about it.

this just brought back an ancient memory

I paused the video at 5 minutes because the few snippets from the movie intrigued me. Watched it, and WOW! This movie is AWESOME! You can watch it numerous times and still find so many interesting details, whether art-wise or story-wise. Thanks for the movie recommendation BionicPig!

I still abselutely love encountering the Outer Wilds OST everywhere, that beginning of this video... damn

I watched this on Netflix in 2018 thanks for bringing back a good memory

I have the movie “My life as a zucchini” on DVD and there’s an ad for this movie that plays. I knew I recognized it lol

Im glad that you mentioned Jacques Tardi and his comic book "Putain de Guerre!" (Fucking War! for those who don't know). He is one of my favorite artists, and I only discovered that this movie existed a short while ago (I inmediately recognized the art style and went to watch it). I love european animation, and this movie is definitely one of my favorite ones. Thanks for the analysis!

WAIT NO WAY I WATCHED THIS ONCE YEARS AGO AND I COULDNT FIND IT. THIS IS IT. I LOVED IT AA

I saw this movie around when it came out and it quickly became one of my favorites. I can't believe I have NEVER heard anyone talk about it!

Oh my god, someone is FINALLY talking about this movie. One of my favorite pieces of animation of all time.

I remember watching this and enjoyed it. I really couldn't guess what was going to happen next.

I watched this movie in theaters with my black Hispanic mother and we both loved it, the ending plot twist always gets me

as a french, thank you so much.

The movie looks gorgeous! Also, what outro song is that? It sounds awesome!

I remember when this came out, I loved it so much. It's one of my all time favorites.

I did actually watch this in French Class in high school- was kinda lost on me at first but now I can appreciate it a little more

This piqued my interest so I was able to rent it on KZread. Excited!

The fact I randomly remembered this movie because it was one of those trailers on an old dvd of mine I wanted to see it (but I can’t) and my spider sense’s were in fact tingling and he did make a video on this

Please review the movie Persopolis! Its a movie based off the autobiographical comic book by Marjane Satrapi. It was listed as a banned book in America for a hot minute but not anymore I believe. It has such a unique art style, a amazing story of growing up in a war-torn country, and witty humor!

i had actually forgotten i saw this movie, it was one of the last i saw with my dad thank you

ive seen this movie before, you have reawakened a memory from me, it felt mature but, i loved it, it probably started my liking to mature ish stuff

This is crazy to me because i remember watching this in my highschool french class

Just watched this last night based on your recommendation!

you could fit perfectly in Brian David Gilbert's "Siblings" video and I mean this in the nicest way possible

I just wanna point out your hair looks real nice. Seeing it this long gives me hope my hair can look this nice too :')

I think it would be super awesome if you did a show on stop motion music videos! Some cool examples would be “big time” and “sledgehammer” by Peter Gabriel, “leave me alone”, “speed demon” by Michael Jackson, “I stay away” by Alice In Chains, and those Primus snd Tool music videos. Also, can ya do a review of “When the Wind Blows”? I think it’s right up your alley and the subject matter is mad heavy! Keep up the awesome work!

I saw this movie when I was a kid and literally for the past week I was trying to remember what this movie was called and then all of a sudden I see that BP made a video on it!

I love this film it’s amazing I’m glad to see more love for it

This movie is one of my favorites as it got me invested on all kinds of genres i never knew i would enjoy. Especially steampunk

yo I fuck with the new pfp heeeaaaavyyyy that shi is tuff 🙏

So glad I watched the movie before moving to the spoilers, it made the ending even better, and I could find secrets along the way!

I have completely forgotten about this film but I remembered that I liked this film.. I recommend Jack and the Cuckoo Clock Heart. Which is one of my favorite movies

This is one of my favorite movies of all time
