Hey! Was extremely ill recently (have already seen 3 doctors) which is why I missed the original upload date. Assuming things don't go south again, I'll be moving to a once a week upload schedule until I'm fully moved into my new place! So expect a lot of movie reviews in the meantime!
I CANNOT BELIEVE THIS, as a kid who grew up with animal crossing, i found this little gem when i was idk 7 or something, it makes me so happy to see it here again :')
My literal reaction when I read the title; "Oh hey, Siloc has done a video on the Animal Crossing movie....wait a minute....THERE'S AN ANIMAL CROSSING MOVIE!?"
idk if it was me being 12 or this movie being genuinely amazing (or both) but this movie made me genuinely tear up at the end, out of happiness or sadness idk but it made me feel :)
I resumed playing New Leaf right after watching this video, and no joke, Whitney noticed me walking by and asked if I believed in UFOs. What a bizarre concidence.
I watched this movie years ago, and honestly, I would love for Animal Crossing to get a new anime, but instead of a movie, it would be a series like most animes, there's already an anime genre that fits Animal Crossing perfectly, which is 'slice of life,' time would pass as the series progresses, showing different events overtime, It would also be awesome if the series introduced new characters every episode, hopefully showing all villagers in the game (which could require a few seasons), in this new anime, we would obviously see new characters that were introduced after Wild World, there would be swimming, DIY, Nook Miles, etc., so the animation team will have a lot more stuff to mess with than when this movie was released Fun fact: Just like Silok said this movie is based on Wild World, so this movie is obviously old, released only in 2006, a lot of Animal Crossing fans in the west don't know about it because it was only released in Japan Also, this movie was created by the same people who made the Pokemon anime
I love the hard core animal crossing player character he is just a reflection of the fans who are watching the movie also Silok if you enjoy this then I heard that a bunch of funs are going to recreate the opening of pikmin 1 in anime style so you can look up for that
i didn't even know this movie existed until 9 years after i first played new leaf, and went into the movie with really low expectations honestly, like you said, this movie was incredibly cozy and comfortable. I was not expecting it to be as good as it was. It's not perfect, but it really is a genuinely good movie without this movie I would not care at all for some villagers like margie, whitney, or alfonso It gave me the same feelings many studio ghibli movies do, it's fantastic
I actually remember being so interested in this movie when it came out that I watched it as soon as I could...completely unsubbed, and it was honestly still a really nice experience. I only finally watched it subbed recently after talking about it with some friends when the new game came out.
Man the animal crossing movie was so outstandingly good it stayed true to the source material to the games. The anime movie would have gotten nominated or awarded best animated feature film at the Oscars in 2007. It could have happened either way though...
The only thing I remember from this film is Apollo inside a house/hut (or wherever it was) and the main character going around a mountain (which might’ve been the beginning scene)
1:42 - That is *so* frustrating! It's been over 15 *years* since this movie/the DS game, with 3 games having been made since then... and we _still_ haven't gotten something like this! *Nintendo!* _Y U NO Give us cool shit?!_
I remembered This video when I was about to go camping this summer and I downloaded this movie to watch. It's one of my favorite movies to watch now. It's laid-back nature is exactly what I'm looking for in a movie
Looking forward to this as a series! More silok is only a good thing as far as I’m concerned. But stay healthy man, I hope you get back on your feet and all moved in safe and sound ASAP! 🙏🏼
They do have an English dub of it if that's what you mean by 'localized' but I don't think there was the English dub on DVD unless it came with the original
I like this new Film Tripp idea. Reminds me of your video of “Over the Garden Wall” and I enjoyed that video as well as this one. Hope to see more Film Tripps in the future.
Somtimes I miss the theme of the old Animal Crossing games, I mean stranded island is alright but og Animal Crossing is home. And this movie is as well.
One thing you neglected to mention in this review... There's an English fan-dub. INCLUDING an English adaptation of K.K. Bossa (know as K.K. Rhythm in the Japanese version)! And can I just say that the people they got to do the voicework for that fan-dub did a brilliant job. I agree with basically everything you said in this video. It's just a straight up wholesome movie and utterly adorable!
Ahh I remember this movie, I enjoyed it a lot back when it came out, especially since I used to play Wild World every day. I hate when people say that there haven't been good videogame movie adaptations until recently because it is a very USA-centric point of view. Japan has been doing great videogames movies since forever and this is one of them.
I really like this movie, it shows perfectly what Animal Crossing is about, so I'm happy to see you talk about it! ... I really wish there were more movies or anime series like this one for Animal Crossing and other Nintendo games, too!
I remember watching this movie on UA-cam... before it was taken down... Solid movie! It perfectly encapsulates the feeling of what Animal Crossing should be where it is about the characters primarily and not shallow customization, unlike some of the recent Animal Crossing games, primarily New Horizons.
when i watched this movie i thought it was pretty cute, nice chill time, wish whitney and Apollo sorted out tho i got sally/margie on my acnh island :]
Even though I’ve known this movie existed for years now, I still can’t believe it exists, and that it’s amazing! So glad this movie didn’t get the Mario Brothers movie treatment! Just imagine a realistic, humanoid Tom Nook, literally nightmare fuel!
This fits really well on your channel! Thanks for constantly coming back to this channel to make ours days just a bit better. I have a question: Does the name “Film Tripp” come from the game “Kid Tripp”?
For some reason, only seeing this review and hearing "My neighbour totoro" made me want to watch this movie and all the studio ghibli movies. Then I realized that I don't have and can't really afford Netflix and know I'm kinda sad ngl
I tried so hard to find a DVD release of this there were some on eBay that shipped from Japan but they were pretty spendy and I just couldn't afford it at the time That was years ago
Sorry to be rude but the animal crossing "movie" is a huge misconception of it. The reason why is because the fan dub called it a movie because it contains all episodes to the show, translated and putted in one package. As they called it a movie. Which made people think as a movie. With that out of the way amazing video! I love when people talk about small stuff Nintendo did back then.
It was released in japan in theaters, honey. I know. They did a huge raffle promotion with it. I remember seeing it when I did my high school semester abroad in 2006.
Nice What Vid Will You Do? Next? Buz i have Ideas Like See More Movies or Do Like More Mario Kart Like 7 idk.. :( Soo What Will You Do Just Want to Know...
(P.S. I dont really care as much as this comment might make it seem and I liked this video, just constructive criticism) While I appreciate the effort and that you still really like the movie, I think that you kinda missed the context clues leading up to the UFO Landing: Spoilers to those who wanna watch themselves, but: Ai finds the bottles on the shore throughout the first part of the film that gulliver put out specifically to get someone to plant the trees for his appearance. "Apple pie (or was it cherry? It has been awhile since I saw this lol)" being the metaphor and Margie's "Apple Pie" being her following her dreams, the message of Ai "finding her own Apple Pie" leads her to follow her passion project of "solving the messages in a bottle" she had been keeping which is why she plants the trees that gulliver uses to land. The events in the final act were the culmination of Ai's character development throughout, and the UFO "Climax" was, while wierd, the culmination of her efforts to plant the trees. This is why she wins the festival. Now granted, Uo (you? Idk) did get the UFO piece, but I dont see the ending working because all he did was "happen upon the piece and save it" which, while risky and brave, ultimately wouldnt feel like a justified payoff of given to that character in my opinion, so Ai catching the gear and getting credit isnt really bad to me personally. (As a sidenote, Uo's recklessness is emphasized throughout and him and the gear being put in a huge danger is entirely his fault for jumping up the fossil to the gear immediately when there is probably a safer way to go about getting it. Maybe thats just me tho.) Sorry for the paragraph but the main point is that while these are slice of life moments, not literally "nothing" was happening. That being said take this with a slight grain of salt because I havent watched it in awhile
Yes. According to Rosie, Apollo and Whitney used to date, and broke up for some reason. In the end credits, Apollo leaves blue roses on Whitney’s door, so it implies they make up.
Hey! Was extremely ill recently (have already seen 3 doctors) which is why I missed the original upload date.
Assuming things don't go south again, I'll be moving to a once a week upload schedule until I'm fully moved into my new place!
So expect a lot of movie reviews in the meantime!
Please let the next review be the Professor Layton movie, I think that one is way less known and appreciated than it deserves to be
ok
Oh man, hope you get better soon.
All I remember from it is that the main character accidentally trampled Apollo's blue roses and people made a big deal out of it.
Because blue roses are the hardest flower to get in the game
SHE DID WUT
@@bjone52 she accidentally trampled Apollo's blue roses
BOTW flower lady will have her revenge
It took me nearly a year to get even a single one in Wild World, so I'm with Apollo on this one 😄
haven't watched this movie, but god i already want a 12 episode anime of this
@Narichu and an OVA
Same
Honestly what else would I expect from an Animal Crossing movie other than a coming-of-age story that's meant to relax?
I CANNOT BELIEVE THIS, as a kid who grew up with animal crossing, i found this little gem when i was idk 7 or something, it makes me so happy to see it here again :')
Yo the mothership was my favorite part of Wild World. I never expected it.
My literal reaction when I read the title;
"Oh hey, Siloc has done a video on the Animal Crossing movie....wait a minute....THERE'S AN ANIMAL CROSSING MOVIE!?"
Me too
idk if it was me being 12 or this movie being genuinely amazing (or both) but this movie made me genuinely tear up at the end, out of happiness or sadness idk but it made me feel :)

There's an American fandub that I watched and it was fun
Man gets sick and says "oops" A real menace to society
0:00 Whitey is pulling off that Bayoneta taunt, "if you want to learn how to talk to a lady, ask you mum" more better then Bayo can.
Sephiroth:.........Mother.........
This Jackbox party pack looks a little different than the rest
Is this comment supposed to be on an animal crossing video or not or is UA-cam broken?
@@ZazzledazzleAnim haha, I’m poking fun at how he made a series reviewing the first 3 party packs, but not any instalment in the series after that
I love the hard core animal crossing player character he is just a reflection of the fans who are watching the movie
also Silok if you enjoy this then I heard that a bunch of funs are going to recreate the opening of pikmin 1 in anime style so you can look up for that

without this movie I would not care at all for some villagers like margie, whitney, or alfonso
It gave me the same feelings many studio ghibli movies do, it's fantastic
Not only is this incredible, but it has infinite possibility for more sequels due to the villagers. Or even a TV show, which I would watch all of. M
I watched this maybe 5 or 6 years ago when I was still into animal crossing games and I was obsessed for like a day straight.
I actually remember being so interested in this movie when it came out that I watched it as soon as I could...completely unsubbed, and it was honestly still a really nice experience. I only finally watched it subbed recently after talking about it with some friends when the new game came out.
Quick question but where can I watch it subbed?
Man the animal crossing movie was so outstandingly good it stayed true to the source material to the games. The anime movie would have gotten nominated or awarded best animated feature film at the Oscars in 2007. It could have happened either way though...
The fan dub of this is shockingly decent
HOW DO I WATCH THIS!?
@@CrystalOSC I watched it back then, but couldnt find it now. Sad
The only thing I remember from this film is Apollo inside a house/hut (or wherever it was) and the main character going around a mountain (which might’ve been the beginning scene)
1:42 - That is *so* frustrating! It's been over 15 *years* since this movie/the DS game,

5:22 that's not Ai, that's Shrek.
Honestly i didn't even know that there was a animal crossing movie.
It never left Japan so that’s understandable)
"If you haven't, check this out"
Yeah good luck with that lol
True, would have been nice if he left a link or something like that
I think it's on 9anime.to. i watched it there a few years back. Though it does have a lot of ads, once you get past them it's smooth sailing
Pretty sure it only released in Japan so it’s jack sparrow time. I’ve seen it so yeah...
its free on youtube
hope the move goes well, and you're back to full strength soon. Thanks for the quick vid Silok!
I'm trying to get my island reflecting the movie as close as I can. Right down to naming my character Ai.
Deadass that constellation looks more like Shrek than Ai
Looking forward to this as a series! More silok is only a good thing as far as I’m concerned. But stay healthy man, I hope you get back on your feet and all moved in safe and sound ASAP! 🙏🏼
I've always loved this movie as a kid
SilokHawk really decided to live up to the Hawk part in his name huh
Why haven't they officially localized this yet?!?!
They do have an English dub of it if that's what you mean by 'localized' but I don't think there was the English dub on DVD unless it came with the original
I wish they made more
I like this new Film Tripp idea. Reminds me of your video of “Over the Garden Wall” and I enjoyed that video as well as this one. Hope to see more Film Tripps in the future.

Any video about this movie gets a view from me. I LOVE this film!
I'm so happy other people have watched this film I lost my mind the first time I watched it !! all ac lovers should give it a go !
I’m a furry now because of this -Silokhawk
Very relatable quote
she's cute tho 👀
Bianca/Whitney is the best AC girl.
How to make anyone a furry
@@wurraymayel1945 true dat
One thing you neglected to mention in this review...
There's an English fan-dub. INCLUDING an English adaptation of K.K. Bossa (know as K.K. Rhythm in the Japanese version)!
And can I just say that the people they got to do the voicework for that fan-dub did a brilliant job.
I agree with basically everything you said in this video. It's just a straight up wholesome movie and utterly adorable!
1. Youre not the only one who prefers eng fandub
2. That was my point. Thank you.
this movie's soundtrack is so great though, the kk bossa rearrangement is just mwah beautiful
This looks awesome. I wish Fossil Fighters got such an adaptation.
They need to localize it for America. Would love to see it.
Warner bros. Can make it possible.
I'm not sure if you'll see this but there was a dub made and can still be watched
I’m A Big Fan Of The Animal Crossing Series! I’m Going To Love This Film
5:25 I see the aliens are familiar with the legend called Shrek
Man, I really want an Animal Crossing anime. Like, REALLLLLLYYYY fucking want one.
This is a pretty good movie IMO
Finally some attention for this hidden gem
Ahh I remember this movie, I enjoyed it a lot back when it came out, especially since I used to play Wild World every day.

... I really wish there were more movies or anime series like this one for Animal Crossing and other Nintendo games, too!
Well I had no idea this movie existed until just recently
Now I have to watch it
Gulliver's UFO is a real thing in the games, you have to shoot it down with a slingshot. Don't think the other aliens were, though.
Omg you're alive, I missed you T_T
I remember watching this movie on UA-cam... before it was taken down... Solid movie! It perfectly encapsulates the feeling of what Animal Crossing should be where it is about the characters primarily and not shallow customization, unlike some of the recent Animal Crossing games, primarily New Horizons.
Cartoon network or toonami on adult swim totally need to pick this up for English dub rerun
I have to wonder if it was intentional that the human characters were called Yu and Ai (You and I).
Hey man hope you're feeling better, and best of luck with the move! Great video as always.
Great video! Always glad to see a new SilokHawk upload!
I think something like maybe a race to catch the most fish and insects and fossils would've ?maybe? given the movie a ?regular? ending
when i watched this movie i thought it was pretty cute, nice chill time, wish whitney and Apollo sorted out tho
i got sally/margie on my acnh island :]
Bruh I love this movie. It’s the reason I love kk bossa
THIS MOVIE IS A CULT FOLLOWING!!!!!!!!!
Next up: professor Layton and the eternal diva, then
Now that's a video game movie I can appreciate
What the hell youtube, I have notifications on for this channel and I didn’t get one for this video. Thanks Susan
nice, a new series!
I hope copyright doesn't destroy it...
it definitely will sadly
yes
I imagined of a video game movie that I like to see is Cosmo Gang from Namco/Bandai Namco
5:23 It looks more like Shrek
Even though I’ve known this movie existed for years now, I still can’t believe it exists, and that it’s amazing! So glad this movie didn’t get the Mario Brothers movie treatment! Just imagine a realistic, humanoid Tom Nook, literally nightmare fuel!
5:26 that looks more like shrek. change my mind.
I was able to watch the fan dub before it was copyrighted but I’ll tell you it was really good
This fits really well on your channel! Thanks for constantly coming back to this channel to make ours days just a bit better. I have a question: Does the name “Film Tripp” come from the game “Kid Tripp”?
YEP IMA WATCH THIS
No clue this existed. Seems like a nice rainy day movie!
Being ill is 100% fine! We understand!!
I have the original movie in dvd
I'm now going to watch the movie just because of this video
HOW HAVE I NOT KNOWN IT EXISTED?
Off topic, but can we appreciate the art in the thumbnail? It looks great!
Honestly I would still love to see a English version
“Nah bich u working for me now” lmao wow, but yeah p much
This is one of my favorite movie for one of my favorite game serie 🥰
The Animal Crossing movie is essentially just yet another reason why Whitney is one of the best villagers.

Silo... Hawk. When will there be a Hawk named Silo :p
Only seen this movie like once, i like it for what it is with all the obvious Animal Crossing trope stuff. 😊
I kinda wanna see it again tough...
For some reason, only seeing this review and hearing "My neighbour totoro" made me want to watch this movie and all the studio ghibli movies. Then I realized that I don't have and can't really afford Netflix and know I'm kinda sad ngl
Any chance you might do the persona 3 movies?
I think the sequel should be called "Animal crossing 2 The land of New horizons."
