So this is basically an allegory or artists who ant to work as animators for big companies like isney getting a reality check about the corporate side of things and the competitiveness of the industry, with the message being to go independent to find success, right?
Because man, in retrospect it seems pretty blatant that that's what they were going for, especially coming from a new studio at the time.

I can't even remember this movie other than the part where they build a baby.
Man I love this movie, the soundrack the pretty lit and the quote "You can shine no matter what your're made of always stuck with me as a kid."

It's very specifically about what was going on at Disney at the time.
Ratchet's Michael Eisner, the upgrades being superficial and really crappy=Chicken Little and Eisner's general belief that CG was inherently superior to 2D, Bigweld's revolt=Roy Disney's Save Disney movement that got Eisner to get the fuck out.

>robot from a working class family inspired by inventor robot on tv to work on his inventing craft while helping his family
>eventually moves into a big city to go get a job at hat company by showing the inventor bit his big idea
>laughed out by security and not even given a chance at the corporate ladder, turns out the inventor robot doesn't even manage the company, he fuck's around with dominos while suits making shitty movie- I mean inventions fuck everyone over by basically making it illegal to jot buy their new chassis product
>protag robot starts repairing poor robots and making small independent movie- I mean inventions and getting a reputation for it
>suit robot throws protag robot in a dungeon and all his friends come to rescue him, and protag robot convinces him to still give a shit. They all revolt against the suit robot and live happily ever after

Huh.
Are there any other animated movies that can be taken as a meta commentary of real life stuff like that?

All I remember is being confused at why the protagonist went for the secretary lady bot he had zero interaction with until like the very end of the movie, over the friendly tomgirl character who believed in his dream and helped save him.
Is this how it feels being cucked as a girl?

And Rodney is John Lasseter.
>one of my uni professors worked on the kidfriendly cdrom games that came out for this, as a programmer
He said it took him about 5 weeks for all of them and he hated it but they cut him a nice big paycheck and it paid his rent for 2 years.

Shrek was also basically one big fuck you to Eisner. This guy was supposedly based on him and was thus named Farquaad in an attempt to get away with saying fuckwad in a kids movie.
