OTHER CHARACTERS PLAYED: N/A
IC Information
CHARACTER NAME: Wilbur Robinson
AGE: 13
CANON: Meet the Robinsons
CANON POINT: Post-movie
FAMILY TYPES:
Dragon's Roar
Wilbur likes to take charge of every situation, and do things his way to solve the problem. He'll use whatever he can as a basis for leadership, whether it's solid or not. He doesn't like to be wrong. He thinks it's impossible for him to fail.
Nature Spirits
Wilbur has a lot of energy, but he puts his energetic personality to getting things done. He's always moving and talks fast. He enjoys talking, especially about things he has a lot of interest in. If you ask him a question, prepare to hear a lengthy story.
Wind Guardians
If anything, Wilbur is a free spirit. He does a lot of crazy things without caring what other people think. This is most likely because his family is made up of eccentric people.
APPEARANCE: He has the average build for a thirteen year old boy, thin and not particularly tall. He has brown eyes and black hair that is in a somewhat pointy pompadour style. As for clothes, despite being from the future, he has a t-shirt, jeans, and the old American favorite, Converse.
PERSONALITY: Wilbur is a fast-paced, fast talking kind of guy with no time to sit and look at the big picture. It's a surprise if anyone can keep up with him. He has a lot to do and very little time to do it. He doesn't seem to have much patience, but this could also be that the only time we see him in action, he has a deadline to get his father's time machine fixed. This still shows some persistence, but only when it's something he deems important. Anything else, it's a hassle to get him to finish. Wilbur has to be completely invested in the task or it's not worth his time.
He is certainly a thirteen year old boy, trying to seem adult but still very child-like. He has immature tendencies, such as lying, age being more important in his eyes, and mini huffy tantrums. He also has an amazing imagination, one he uses to create wild stories about himself. He exaggerates a lot, especially about how often his parents will kill him for breaking and hiding things from them.
His attitude is a bit bossy. He uses his age as an excuse to tell others what to do (if they're younger than him, that is) and will become exasperated if he doesn't get his way. He does not like when people don't listen to him. He will drive a point and go out of his way to prove he's right no matter what. He threw Lewis off a building to prove he did, in fact, have a time machine. While Wilbur doesn't like when people don't listen to him, he also doesn't like to be told what to do himself. Even the simplest request will leave him in a bad mood, and he'll reluctantly do the job (albeit a bit half-assed, sometimes). He is a bit selfish and tends to only do things that benefit him. He'll even lie (and lie and lie) to get what he wants. He has a habit of saying whatever is on his mind and regrets it later.
Another point for "Things that make Wilbur look like a bad person", Wilbur has a high opinion of himself. He certainly acts like he can't do anything wrong and will take on tasks that most people would shirk away from. Not everyone would go back in time to save their own father's future. However, he does seem to have an inkling that he can't be good at everything, so he tries to cover all bases, get every possible outcome. Though, the consequences don't really seem to bother him. He'll go through with his plan regardless, since, well, he can do no wrong. How could there be consequences. However, if he does happen make a mistake, he will go through hell to fix it.
Despite all these awful things, Wilbur can be a friendly person. His upbeat nature and natural optimism draw people to him (if they haven't been turned away by his aggressive leadership). He's not afraid to share his life story with someone he just met. He can bring a lot of new and interesting ideas to the table prompting those who may have normally been shy or shelter to come out of their shell and view the world in a completely different light. When he finally calms down, he can be sympathetic and caring. He'll worry if he sees someone upset, though he's not entirely sure the best way to cheer them up.
HISTORY: Meet the Robinsons is a simple story about an orphan boy who dreams of having a family who loves him and his many inventions. Lewis, the main character, invents a machine that will allow him to see his memories of the past and hopefully help him find his birth mother.
At the science fair, he meets an eccentric boy, Wilbur Robinson, who claims that he is from the future and that Lewis' invention is in danger of being stolen by a man in a bowler hat. Lewis ignores him, saying Wilbur is crazy, and goes about his business. During preparations, Lewis' invention is sabotaged by a robotic bowler hat right before he is about to present it. It ultimately fails causing the science fair to be ruined, and Lewis runs off in anger. His invention is then stolen by the Bowler Hat Guy who takes it to an invention company and tries to pass it off as his own.
Lewis returns to the roof of the orphanage (his favorite spot) where he laments about his failure. While there, Wilbur returns and tries to get Lewis to go back and fix his invention. Lewis becomes angry and says his invention only failed because he was no good. Wilbur tries to explain that the Bowler Hat Guy stole a time machine and came back in time to ruin Lewis' invention. Once again, Lewis doesn't believe Wilbur and dares him to prove all of this is true. Wilbur then throws Lewis off the roof into a waiting time machine and sends them both into the year 2037.
Amazed by the future and the existence of a time machine, Lewis says he won't fix his invention and will instead use the time machine to see his mother instead. Wilbur tries to stop Lewis, but the two of them end up fighting and crashing the machine instead. Wilbur tells Lewis it's his fault and he needs to fix the time machine. Lewis says he will only do it if Wilbur promises to take him back to find his mom. After some thought, Wilbur agrees.
Meanwhile, in the past, the Bowler Hat Guy fails to work the invention, resulting in it completely falling apart. He vows to capture Lewis and have him fix the machine instead.
Back in the future, Wilbur and Lewis arrive at Wilbur's house with the broken time machine. They take it into the garage where they run into the family robot, Carl, who immediately runs off screaming after seeing Lewis. Wilbur throws a hat on Lewis' head telling Lewis that no one can see his hair and then chases after Carl. Lewis accidentally tours the whole house and meets all of Wilbur's family. Wilbur and Carl discuss the plan to restore Lewis' faith in himself. Carl tells Wilbur if this fails, there is a 99% chance Wilbur will no longer exist. Wilbur shrugs it off.
While Lewis attempts to fix the time machine, Wilbur tells the story about his dad, Cornelius Robinson. Cornelius invented everything seen in this future, including the time machine, all while following his motto "Keep Moving Forward". With a little more courage, Lewis finishes his work on the time machine. Unfortunately, it still doesn't work, and Lewis becomes upset again.
The Bowler Hat Guy arrives in the future and attempts to kidnap Lewis with a number of minions. He finally decides on bringing a dinosaur from the past and sets it on Lewis. Wilbur's family risks their lives to protect him, then offer to adopt Lewis. They change their mind, though, when Wilbur knocks off Lewis' hat revealing Lewis' blond hair. Wilbur then tells Lewis he lied about taking him back to find his mother. Lewis runs off in tears and encounters the Bowler Hat Guy. He promises Lewis to take him to see his mother. Against Wilbur's wishes, Lewis agrees.
Lewis and the Bowler Hat Guy return to the old orphanage age where Lewis grew up, and the Bowler Hat Guy reveals himself as Lewis' old roommate whom Lewis would keep up every night while working on inventions. He blames Lewis' for his failed life and also reveals Lewis is actually Cornelius Robinson, making Wilbur his son. Bowler Hat Guy recounts his own back story, including how he met DOR-15 (the robotic bowler hat) who was a failed and abandoned experiment of Cornelius'. They both decided to steal the time machine so they could ruin Lewis' future.
When the Bowler Hat Guy tries to take Lewis' to the time machine, Wilbur and Carl arrive, saving Lewis and escaping, but DOR-15 destroys Carl and steals the invention back. The future then begins to change and Wilbur vanishes. Lewis discovers that the Bowler Hat Guy succeeded in the past and also mass-produced DOR- 15, resulting in the human race being turned into slaves. Lewis manages to fix the first time machine and returns to the past to stop the Bowler Hat Guy from signing the contract. He also causes DOR-15 to disappear by promising to never invent her. Lewis takes Bowler Hat Guy to the future revealing what would've happened had he continued with his plan. The future returns to normal and Wilbur re-materializes. After attacking the Bowler Hat Guy with karate, Lewis says Wilbur should offer to adopt Bowler Hat Guy, but instead the Bowler Hat Guy disappears.
The two boys return to the house and Lewis' meets his older self, Cornelius. Wilbur follows through with his promise and takes Lewis to the past to meet his mother. At the last moment, Lewis changes his mind, telling Wilbur he already has a family who loves him. Wilbur takes Lewis back to his normal time and they say their good-byes. After waking up his roommate during the baseball game to keep him from becoming the Bowler Hat Guy in the future, Lewis returns to the science fair with his new found confidence. This time he tests his machine on the science fair judge, revealing that she is his adoptive mother in the future. The movie ends with him moving into his new home with his new adoptive parents.
