Zathura (2005)

Trivia: To make the robot in the movie, first they used a small puppet and had the puppeteers under the floor controlling it through sticks. To make the huge robot, they had a "bam bot" for ramming through walls and windows, a technical robot that had all the circuitry to make the antennae move and the nose to steam, and a version where there were only the feet and the body (they would later animate the arms and legs.) The robot was more mechanics than electronics.

Trivia: At the start of the movie, when Juni says, "To finding lost toys", he finds a toy that bears a resemblance to Grandpa in the red armor in the game when he finds "Megalegs".
